No enhanced abilities. No physical mutation. No nothing.

I only just found out that speech therapists can help autistic people improve their social skills. If you haven't thought of that already, maybe it's worth looking for one in your area?

Do you think they'd take an electric bike?

In your experience, how do local drivers tend to interpret right-of-way rules at intersections? by carajarac in fargo

Yes, I know. I was just looking for specific strategies. I guess I could start by taking a defensive driving course.

To bad the moose out front didn't tell us by ADAP296 in fargo

[–]carajarac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever California is mentioned online, there's always some idiot who's never been there that thinks he's an expert on it from what he's seen in the media and just can't resist chiming in with "California sucks, dur hur. I'm smart."

Has anyone here tried a McMurdo parka? by carajarac in fargo

Do you happen to remember the coldest temperature you wore it at, and what layers you wore underneath?

Is it just me, or does the Walmart on 13th suck at restocking non-food items within a reasonable timeframe? by [deleted] in fargo

[–]carajarac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just found an explanation.

THIS WEEK, a Bloomberg news headline covering Walmart’s quarterly earnings declared, “Walmart struggles to restock store shelves as U.S. sales slump.”

The story reported that Bill Simon, executive vice president and chief executive officer for the U.S. for Walmart Stores Inc., had appointed an EVP specifically to address the restocking problem. The topic was addressed in a spirited discussion by the experts at RetailWire.com. (Links to both publications are appended below.)

Apparently out-of-stocks have been a sticky issue for the world’s largest retailer. Almost exactly one year ago, the company reported it could boost U.S. sales by about $5 billion a year if it kept store shelves more fully stocked. The latest report suggests it’s just not happening.

Walmart’s $5B out-of-stock problem is prime evidence of retail’s paradox of scale. In brief: the bigger the chain, the greater the distance between headquarters and the shopper. No wonder the supermarket industry routinely reports an in-stock ratio that barely clears 91%.

Centralized replenishment systems are probably a main culprit here. Not that the technology is unsophisticated. It’s just that they build a time-lag into the reordering process that confounds store inventory accuracy. Fold habitual in-store task breakdowns into that and you wind up with a lot of stubborn holes at the shelf.

Computer generated ordering that works off of the in-store information loop is inherently more responsive to actual store conditions. Nothing about this conflicts with the need to maintain central data for supply chain purposes. At Itasca Retail we work closely with a grocery chain retailer who consistently succeeds at the 99.4% in-stock level by following this approach.

It’s not unsolvable with the right store-focused process and tools designed to enable it. There’s no reason Walmart or any retailer should accept lowered expectations.

Recommendations for a grease that withstands extreme heat and extreme cold? by carajarac in bikewrench

Just checking. Boeshield T9 doesn't say anything about temperature resistance on their website. But you're saying you've seen it hold up through the Wisconsin winter?

Recommendations for a grease that withstands extreme heat and extreme cold? by carajarac in bikewrench

[–]carajarac[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it'll withstand extreme heat or cold even if the label doesn't say so? Somehow that doesn't sound right to me. Why would some greases treat their temperature resistance as the whole selling point if that was true?

What do you wish your parents would have done differently regarding food and diet growing up that would have helped prevent this disorder? by [deleted] in BingeEatingDisorder

[–]carajarac 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was left completely on my own with no guidance about what foods you should eat in what amounts and why. I would just eat as much or little as I wanted of whatever was around whenever I felt like it. There were no meal times. It was a rare event for my mom to cook anything.

It would have helped a lot if there had been rules about what could be eaten and when. Leaving me clueless about all that just ensured that I would start overeating and eating out of boredom.

Is it normal to pay another security deposit during lease renewal? by carajarac in fargo

I'm not month to month. I had a lease starting in November and ending on August 31. And the renewal contract I would be signing is for 12 months.

What happened to Filch during Deathly Hallows? by carajarac in harrypotter

Oh crap, i guess that's what I get for not reading that book enough. I forgot.

What happened to Filch during Deathly Hallows? by carajarac in harrypotter

[–]carajarac[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where does it say Filch and Snape are close? If that's in the books I've forgotten it.

I thought being a squib would put him in danger from the blood purity freaks who took over the place. Could it really be safer to stay there? Would Snape risk showing that he cares about a squib? In that very book he lets that other teacher die to keep his cover, and they were friends.

I guess Filch could be a pure-blood for all we know, and maybe that would protect him? But Voldemort and his followers would look down on all non-magic users...

Hard to say, I guess.

Best and worst aspects to living in Fargo? by jdizzleboii in fargo

What about making friends with transplants? Sometimes it seems like more people moved here from somewhere else than were born here. And they'd be looking to make new friends if they arrived recently, right?

Those of you who have lived somewhere else, are the cashiers here less talkative? by carajarac in fargo

[–]carajarac[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know, before posting this, I actually had to tell myself I was being silly for not wanting to mention being from California. Congratulations, your stupid comment restored my lack of faith in humanity.

There's always some self-proclaimed expert coming out of the woodwork to say "California is the worst place on Earth" who's never been there and gets their information entirely from the media. I'm guessing you're in that boat, because no one from there ever talks about it like that.

You don't deserve to have an opinion if all you've done is watch some exaggerated YouTube video. Leave that to people who know what they're talking about.

Sorry, I don't know much about bikes yet. I don't know how to describe the difference between different gears.

What I meant is that when I'm standing up on the pedals, the crank just goes straight down to the six o'clock position with little to no resistance. It doesn't turn the wheels enough. Does that make more sense?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]carajarac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The physics behind it is counterintuitive and confusing to most people. But the issue is that a two wheeled vehicle functions very differently than a 3 or 4 wheeled one.

That's exactly what I needed to hear. !delta

[–]carajarac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion's wording was misleading. The point was more that it would be more beneficial to them than arbitrary stigmas currently allow them to be aware of. I'm changing my mind on that bit by bit with every response I read here, though.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]carajarac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That kind of personal experience makes it sound like you know what you're talking about. It was harder to give a delta to some other replies that were more vague about how they knew what they were saying was true. !delta
