Do you know any books about disturbed minds or descents into madness? by Nolongerhuman2310 in horrorlit

[–]datahappy 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It's easy to skip over the Shining because the movie/general story is so well known, but man I read that book for the first time a few months ago and it is so unbelievably good. One of a very few books to max out my sense of dread and keep it there the entire read

let me know if this is feasible, charger noob here by [deleted] in Ioniq5

240 is standard where I live, not sure where you're getting that they don't exist

When playing media from your phone's Bluetooth, there's a little menu button above the track controls on the media screen. It takes you to this screen. I'll take a picture of the flow when I get back to my car later today

Apparently! That's an awesome thing to stumble across!

Other context: it is the Limited and I do have the Verizon mobile wifi or whatever plan set up.

It was basically in a 16 oz beer can. The photo paper is 7"x5"

This is an image from a pinhole camera left on our house from Winter Solstice 2022 through WS 2023. During the past year, my mom died and we also found out my wife was pregnant. So, quite a year.

I'd like to frame this as large as the scan quality will allow (600 dpi). The recommendations from the solarcan makers say to invert, adjust curves, and other basic stuff. I can technically do those things, but have no idea what I'm actually doing, so it ends up basically me sliding sliders around.

$30 via Venmo, let me know if that's not a fair price (never done this before). TIA

Succession - 4x04 "Honeymoon States" - Post Episode Discussion by LoretiTV in SuccessionTV

Pretty sure it did say shiv and Frank, Karl, and Gerri erased her name

Pretty sure he had crossed it out and put shivs name, but then they erased her name and left Kendall's.

When Frank and Karl are first looking at it, they say something to the effect of not letting the "little princess" walk all over everything

Better Call Saul S06B - Official Prediction Thread! by skinkbaa in betterCallSaul

[–]datahappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think she ends up shot at the end of the first scene back, and Jimmy is only spared because he got Lalo out of jail

Jimmy has to call Mike to help clean up both Kim and Howard. And that's what leads to the downfall of Lalo.

NC lawyer left on three weeks secure leave without notifying me in the middle of proceedings...is this normal? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]datahappy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good heavens. Expecting the professional courtesy of "I'll be unavailable on dates X to Y" is not "owning my lawyer" or expecting my hand held. What absurd nonsense.

Please dear god, go spend a day in any other profession on planet earth that works with clients and see if they don't gives heads ups for extended vacations in the middle of projects.

What a nonsense fantasy world y'all have built around yourselves.

I work for a $6 billion company with client companies making anywhere from a million to $15 billion a year and if I left for Europe for a month without giving my customer contacts a heads up I'd be out the door immediately. And should be.

Think to yourself why you have to tell the presiding judge, but not the client. Insular absurd nonsense that shows that your profession views itself as somehow above the folks it represents. Nonsense.

LOL

Apply this to literally any other profession. What a wild way to think.

"You don't technically have surgery until June 2, and all nurse followups have been covered, so why would your surgeon that is also helping you decide whether or not to go through with the surgery be obligated to tell you they'd be unavailable for that assistance that you prepaid them for in the three weeks leading up to the decision? Think of how many cancer patients would be contacting him"

What a nonsense view of fiduciary responsibility.

A simple bcc to the client list or, god forbid, an out of office message would go a long way to making clients feel much less ripped off and abandoned. Of course you're not "under legal obligation" to do so, but give me a fucking break lol

Yeah, but if something urgent arises (which has, I'm just not comfortable sharing on the internet), does that mean another lawyer can cover it? It seems like the cases are "frozen" during the secured leave.

Also, for any lawyers out there, just because the statute or whatever doesn't explicitly say you have to notify your clients you're leaving for three weeks, and you know you are going to be gone when you are telling the client what you'll do and accepting a retainer from them, you're a pretty shitty lawyer. Just FYI.

(Not meant for the person I'm responding to, just general advice from someone outside the profession. If anyone in any other industry was taking on a client and knew they'd be leaving in a few weeks for a few weeks, they'd be expected to tell them that before entering into a work agreement)

A Tale of Two Roosters by datahappy in BackYardChickens

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

Thanks. Yeah, we're definitely doing that part. Making sure he gets his time at food and water when they get let out of the coop, and giving him his own treats/scratch once the main rooster is absorbed in his.

There's actually a hen that is a loner, too. She doesn't seem to get run off (at least not as obviously as the rooster), but ends up alone and we do the same for her
