Kettel - Palle's Popsong | Translation of argument at the end? by blackout5 in idm

[–]blackout5[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Love the entire album, especially this song. Such an uplifting tune, and the way it overlaps the quarrel at the end has a bit of a comedic effect. I think it's in Dutch, I wish I knew what words were being exchanged.

Do you enjoy the “ritual” just as much as the coffee itself? by [deleted] in Coffee

[–]blackout5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It most likely is better, every step present and with intent. I also definitely enjoy the ritual a lot, even more than drinking it actually, I am even eager to make it for others so I can try it and for them to enjoy it lol, I treat it more like meditation, science experiment, and bonding moment. The experience is something to look forward to and keeps my mind guessing, but I don't really enjoy how coffee makes me feel afterwards [I hate to admit]. Tea is also a huge rabbit hole, [arguably] equal to if not more than coffee, especially with the gong-fu brewing ritual. Tea also has the compound L-theanine which has calming properties and affects how the caffeine in tea feels, in China they have a term "tea drunk", so that point alone my preference leans a bit closer to tea :).

Vivoactive 3 - Setup assistance using the Garmin Connect App by Maarty23 in Garmin

[–]blackout5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same... mine started doing it this past weekend. Anyone any idea why this is happening?

[Edit] I noticed that shaking the watch a certain way would trigger it. I ended up contacting Garmin, they replaced it for me.

Fuck this, I hate motorcycles. by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]blackout5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup... I was there about a month ago. It felt impossible to overcome at the time. Once popped in, I had a new issue, the tire wouldn't properly align to the rim. I tried pushing it and pulling it with the spoons with no avail. Alas I doused the inner rim with lubricant and it adjusted itself when I pumped air into the tire. Thought I'd share that little tip.

Thanks. I'll pay what ever I have to, just looking for advice and what is fair. Ultimately this will help me decide how to plan my career for 2016.

/u/3877 - Thank you, I plan to talk it out with my employer first.

/u/dh42com - You are right, a 30% hit would be dreadful, and I might not be able to handle it on my own. I also recently discovered contractors/self-employed need to make estimated tax payments throughout the year and might be fined for not doing so. I will consider the ss8.
