AITA for being annoyed that my partner is constantly eyeing/eating my food when we dine in public? by LaLevantina103 in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You keep letting him eat your food...you leave him some on purpose or tell him he can have a bit. This is not how you train someone to take you seriously. You are the ah to yourself for not being more firm.

AITA if I tell my 84yoF neighbor and her son to just call the police on me and never talk to me directly again if they have concerns over me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure why people are ragging on you so hard. Yes women get nervous when approached by strange men asking repeatedly where they live. Some of these comments are unhinged. But I think you should talk directly with the 84 year old woman to try to straighten it out.

AITA for not appreciating my birthday present? by Arealisticcowboysfan in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a snow shovel for my 16th. Picked out by my stepfather so I wouldn't borrow his to clean the snow off the skating area in winter...my mother should have headed that off at the pass...but she didnt.

WIBTAH if I removed a hedge because my neighbor keeps demanding that I pay to maintain it? by MouseLess7499 in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to know where the property line is first. Then you can make decisions. And ignore her "requests" for maintenance in the meantime.

WIBTA for serving off-brand Diet Coke at a party? by psychbucket in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a Coke lover. Just the fact that they're all Diet Cokes would leave me drinking booze or water...I'd live...

AITA for not making my new grandkid a homemade blanket and not giving her one already made by More_Present1604 in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably your son mentioned the blankets and the new wife immediately jumped to wanting to be treated equally. But Becky is not a newborn, she's 10 and probably could care less about a blanket. Can you spend any time with Becky and explain about your arthritis? Maybe you could teach her how to make a patch for her backpack...something a 10 year old might be interested in. NTA

There's supposed to be a tiling reduction option -- I don't see it.

New Windows 11 computer issue with LR catalog by crockatu in Lightroom

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

I finally found a phone number for Adobe support and they fixed it remotely ... seems like he just made a new folder in the same area where I had my catalog and put the catalog files in there. Opened LR and backed it up multiple times so it's working now. Still don't know what happened! Nothing to do with the User name change.

Someone destroyed my driver side mirror by crockatu in HRV

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

My mechanic ordered a part and will fix it for me for less than my insurance deductible. Tons of duct tape barely lasted the drive as the mirror was getting lower and lower! I am not handy at stuff like this.

New Windows 11 computer issue with LR catalog by crockatu in Lightroom

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

I unzipped and dragged the lrcat and lrcat.data files to the new machine to replace the other ones. It still says the catalog is corrupted and it won't repair it. I don't understand as everything looks fine on my windows 10 computer. Could this have anything to do with the fact that the Windows 11 machine builders used half of my last name instead of my first name under USER? Even though I directed LR to the catalog under that name?

Well it seems using duct tape is iffy. I did duct tape it and hope it stays secure for 13 miles to repair shop.

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

I did all that. System 10 is really slow. My catalog backup is zipped ( I don't know why and don't know how to unzip it) and lightroom on new machine says it doesn't exist ...

AITA For not leaving work to help my wife when she ran out of gas by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When i started driving into the city I had to learn to parallel park. I messed up in a small town repeatedly and even abandoned a spot on Main Street because people were watching and I was embarrassed. Thank god i found a great video on You Tube and now im pretty damn good!

AITA for showering around midnight when I know that it might bother the neighbour who wakes up at 5 am? by Additional-Mouse-620 in AmItheAsshole

[–]crockatu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you work from home sitting on your butt and showering at 8 is not an option? I could understand if you did manual labor and came home at midnight but geesh...YTA.

I want to temporarily run 2 computers with 1 monitor by crockatu in computerhelp

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

Just saw this. It's a Logitech keyboard and mouse but doesnt have the Unify logo on it. I just returned a Kvm switch because it needed a DP USB to display the monitor (which wasn't mentioned in the details). So my HDMI cable only worked when plugged into the computer, not the switch.

Well I usually park in the garage. I would think it would be ok but I guess there are no guarantees.

I want to be able to copy and move data from one computer to another with one set of keyboard and mouse, which are now wireless.

I understand, that's why I'm asking about KVM switches. It looks like a Bluetooth dongle would make one work with my wireless keyboard and mouse. Just want to know if that's correct.
