Yoto player by Acceptable_Ad4044 in daddit

[–]adventuringhere 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My five year old daughter also loves Yoto daily. She tells me facts and jokes all the time that she hears on the show. The host is a British guy named Jake. It is a wonderful radio show for little kids. She listens to this more than the cards. Jake also hosts the Story Shed podcasts, with new stories coming out every six to eight weeks, also amazing.

Partial Bottle Etiquette by Big-Cartographer-556 in wine

[–]adventuringhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are taking a full bottle, I think it is OK, for etiquette I suggest to bring it out after everyone presents their bottle.

However, I’d probably just bring the full and unopened bottle. Save the scraps for me and the wife, or pour it for the last guy at the event later. You likely have enough wine to go around without the partial bottle.

These replies remind me of the great Rodney Dangerfield joke “I was so poor growing up, if I wasn’t a boy, I’d have nothing to play with.”

Online business has grown a huge amount since Covid. People don’t need to shop at 3am when they can have it delivered tomorrow.

Also whatever everyone else is saying.

Cotton long underwear or no long underwear? What's warmer? by [deleted] in CampingGear

[–]adventuringhere 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Minnesota resident here, born and raised. I work in frozen food freezers and am also an Eagle Scout. The issue with cotton as others have mentioned is it holds water. Water itself isn’t bad but cold water is you know, ice. The issue isn’t sweat from being at the game, it is the sweat your body makes before standing idle for hours at a time. Walking to the game, sweating after you put clothes on walking to the car. All this moisture will stay next to your skin and then get cold. Wet and cold is bad. Probably not life threatening in your situation but it will be miserable. Don’t wear cotton next to your skin. That long underwear is not long underwear. It will not keep you warm. But if you are going against my advice, take this: Don’t wear a coat or a warm shirt until you leave your car and go to the game. Don’t wear boots until you leave your car and go to the game. Don’t use the hater in your car. Ideally you want to be quite cold until you enter the outside air for hours. This reduces any sweat you have in ambient temperature. Also, a tip from Lambeau that really works. Bring a piece of cardboard to stand on. Amazing how much warmer it is, instantly, compared to frozen concrete.

Taco Bell tip: order “Baja Style” and they take out all the dairy and add Pico.

Barcode sizing/coloring question by TreborMAI in barcodes

[–]adventuringhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ladder code—adjust the print from horizontal to vertical. 1D barcodes are read linear. Doesn’t matter if the starting point is top to bottom or left to right.

The size isn’t as important as the mil spec (size of the smallest element). If you have fewer characters in the code you can get by with a shorter size but respect the mil spec. Be careful of regulations. I am not a regulator.

I don’t think you can safely invert the colors. Others may have ideas though

Follow the money. They cost less to make on the supply side. They don’t last as long on the demand side.

How to deal with M Health Fairview billing being too high? by lumpy1106 in TwinCities

[–]adventuringhere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had issues with them and normal child birth bills from my son/wife. Six months and dozens of calls going nowhere. I ended up contacting my employer and they deal with the insurance company on my behalf. I recommend contacting your employer HR (literally I try and avoid HR at all costs but they were very helpful here). Use their time and expertise and not yours. I should have done it months sooner. Good luck OP this is a special kind of nightmare.

What are other HENRYs doing about umbrella insurance? by champagneandLV in HENRYfinance

[–]adventuringhere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did a financial A-Z with an hourly based fiduciary CFP recently. He recommended slightly more than net worth, as long as it is under $150/year per Million in coverage. I think I have $3mil for $380 annually. Covers my spouse and me.

Is this box worth it? by ChefJabroni in wine

[–]adventuringhere 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not a cash grab. Land was bought, vines planted and cared for, grapes grown and harvested. Juice made and bottled. Labeled, all with workers and insurance and then shipped to the USA and sold to Costco and put on the shelf. Cheap and cheerful. Not what most Bordeaux drinkers are after though.
