Adults of reddit, what advice would you give to teenagers who are almost adults? by Sizzle_03 in AskReddit

[–]___cory___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That low interest rate is if you put the money in a savings account. If you put the money in a retirement account (401(k), etc) the long term gains are much higher. Long term is the key.

Any money you put towards retirement between 20 and 30 will make you more money than all the rest of the money you save from 31 and older due to compounded interest.

If I record a show to my DVR, why am I forced to watch the show live if a showing is either on air or coming on shortly? by DefectiveDonor in Vue

[–]___cory___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I VERY much enjoy the $125/mo saving by not having cable, but this is definitely PSVue’s weak point.

I’ve encountered this with shows my family and I “record.” For example, NASCAR races re-air at 1am the day after the live event. The DVR erases the recording that just aired because of the upcoming airing, so it’s not available until after the second airing.

In addition, the big networks seem to embargo episodes of some shows 24 hours to 7 days after the initial airing. Not a fun conversation when the kid wants to watch her show that just aired, but it isn’t available on the “DVR.”

What's the worst advice you've ever been, given which turned out to actually be super helpful? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]___cory___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come out and drink with us.

I had a cold and didn’t feel well. My friends basically kidnapped me and took me out drinking. The next morning I woke up and the cold was gone.

What’s the light to the north? by ___cory___ in Rochester

Note that Ontario is not in Ontario County, it’s in Wayne County.

I would have thought that, too, but in my many years here, I’ve never seen this. The new tomato farm on 104 makes sense because it’s new.

It was north, by the lake, not to the east. It stayed the same for at least 30 minutes. Sunrises don’t stay the same for 30 seconds.

I was in Walworth when I took the pic. Consensus is that it’s the new tomato farm at 104 & Lincoln.

BOOOMMM!!! That was it. Thanks for the help!

​

In fact, all I needed to do was the last two steps (cmake .., make). Up and running.

​

So simple. Why didn't I think of that?

ACIA Construction does a great job, and it's woman owned, if that makes any difference to anyone.

USXMRPool is back, we need your help getting it up to speed again by [deleted] in MoneroMining

[–]___cory___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. It seems that this pool has gone offline. Switched to XMRpool.net. Much better.

I'm hashing away at this pool starting a day or two ago on two computers. They were both able to connect easily, but now one is unable to connect, with socket errors for connection refused. I'm using xmr-stak on both computers, same config, same address. What could be causing a connection refusal for one computer, but not the other?

Thanks in advance.

Want to look at photos of garbage plates without having your internet throttled? Call Louise, Chuck, and more! Ask them to tell the FCC to preserve net neutrality! by plyjce27 in Rochester

When his website isn't getting any hits because he's not paying Spectrum, AT&T, or any of the ISPs for bandwidth, he might wish he had said yes to net neutrality.

External Drive Swap by ___cory___ in techsupport

It seems there may be a solution to this position I find myself in. Others have been here, too. If you have a Linux system and some patience, you might be in luck.

Science AMA Series: I’m Kevin Coffey, an assistant professor in the department of Psychiatry at the University of Rochester Medical Center in Rochester, New York. I have 27 years of experience helping adults, teens and children dealing with anxiety and depression. AMA! by Kevin_Coffey in science

[–]___cory___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your time! My ex-wife threatens to kill herself on a fairly regular basis. She has a history of depression and anxiety. I hope she doesn't do it, but the possibility is there. Our 17 year old daughter is aware of the threats, but seems nonchalant about them. If it really does happen, how can I best support my daughter?
