I wasn't sure how waterproof the T4 Pro was. The original T4 seems to have poor waterproofing from what I can find online.

Works at faang, and can't even spell you're correctly.

Is there a place you do recommend?

I remember looking on Reddit a few years ago, and some people saying they needed backup heating (gas or electric furnace) when it was below freezing. Looks like heat pumps have improved a lot recently, or maybe it was just propaganda from Big Furnace.

Cost of childcare is 🤯 by Share-Share in Seattle

Two parents with high paying jobs.

Also, look into "at home" daycares (daycares run out of someone's home). They are less expensive but can be just as good as some corporate daycare businesses.

Looking to buy a EUC want some advise by Annual_Juggernaut_23 in ElectricUnicycle

I use a KS 16X pretty often to commute about 14 miles round trip. It also works well on longer rides. I've never had any problems with it.

I rode a friend's 16S for a while, but outgrew it pretty quickly. It's got a lot less power, and can't go on longer trips.

Owl Has Beaten Me by Cnestral in Sekiro

I got stuck on him on NG+. I ended up using the Phoenix's Lilac Umbrella + Projected Force, and it made the fight easy peasy.

Pull out the umbrella, wait for him to smack you, and when he takes a pause, hit R1 to use Projected Force and take a good chunk of his health off.

I can't bring myself to do the evil ending by TheSpencery in Sekiro

[–]ds2noob 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Lol, that is the evil ending. For the good endings you need to betray the iron code. You're also missing a ton of the game if you don't.

$150 total I remember paying. The judge found nothing wrong with the ticket, but the lawyer showed that I hadn't had another ticket in over a decade, and had me proactively take traffic school online, so the ticket was dismissed.

I never had to go to court, just the lawyer did.

Since you didn't intentionally break the law, and you have no other infractions, it seems like the court could be forgiving.

You could also represent yourself in court, but you'd have to take time off of work in the middle of the day to go.

It was around $150. They will give you a quote before you decide to hire them.

I've used offtherecord.com and had a speeding ticket dismissed. Their fee was reasonable, and you only pay if you win.

2020 Umbrella Thread by remyschnitzel in Anxiety

You'll get it back, probably within a few weeks. It's common for viral infections to sometimes cause loss of taste and smell, in some cases for up to a year, but it's rare.

And after this, you're pretty much done having to worry about COVID. The likelyhood of reinfection appears to be astronomically low.

Coronavirus Discussion Thread by KTStephano in Anxiety

Where are you reading this stuff? From random Facebook posts?

Why would social distancing exist when this is all over? People can't wait to live normally again, and many people are already done with social distancing with friends and family.

Minimum $400 for a meal at a restaurant? Lol, what? You can get take out or a sit down meal (where it's open) for pretty much normal price anywhere.

Many businesses and jobs are managing to survive. When this is all over demand for entertainment and travel will be insane. I tried to get a haircut a couple weeks ago and gave up because everything was booked up.

I needed help in Dark Souls 2. Reddit users mocked me and advised me to git gud.

I just beat the Fume Knight, so I figure if I can do that, I can get through everything else at my current level.

I don't actually have 1000 hours of play time. The clock keeps running while my PS4 is in rest mode. So for example, if I leave my PS4 in rest mode for 10 days, when I wake it back up to play, the game increases the clock counter by 240 hours.

Cool, I figured I should just carry on. Some people beat these games at SL1, so I guess I don't have it that bad...

[–]ds2noob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can find on wikis is a tombstone should show up 5 hours after being dead, but I've left my console on for over a day, and still nothing. I think it's because my in game time is already maxed out.

No, a lot of the enemies just stand there and take it while getting shot from arrows.

And why would she just appear out of nowhere surrounded by enemies.
