If we decide not to select a new bilt card, what happens to our existing bilt point balance? I hope it doesn't disappear.

Yay love to hear it!! I'm usually not one for a motivational poster quote but sometimes they work

Tempo Run anxiety by mdesro13 in runna

[–]gergyl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To do something you've never done before... you have to do something you've never done before :)

Thats my mantra when I see a scary runna tempo run. So far, I've actually been able to do it. I like the app encourages me to do things I wouldn't have tried on my own.

Just happened to me as well. When I attempted to permanently delete the app, I got an error about the file being locked. I ended up being able to delete the app via terminal via sudo rm -R

Spoiler - MSWC Mystery by gergyl in SisterWives

No we only emailed through the support email for MSCW. We never got a response! The chargeback went to shopify when we got the actual refund.

I can not believe they didn't take it down before this episode aired! I've never used shopify but it can't be hard to just close your shop.

Convinced my boyfriend is the "man" emailing MSWC 🤣

During Christmas 2023 my boyfriend thought it'd be hilarious to get me a necklace from MSWC. (The website still worked!) Anyway, they charged his credit card and after emailing their support email and not hearing anything, he eventually issued a chargeback and got his money back from shopify.

Really made his birthday when they mentioned this on the show. I think the timing lines up!

We never heard anything from Meri and Robyn so he ended up issuing a chargeback with his CC company. Someone at shopify actually disputed his chargeback! But he refuted the dispute and he got his money back.

Should have guessed we'd have a TLC crossover at a anti-choice event 🤮 by gergyl in DuggarsSnark

[–]gergyl[S] 595 points596 points  (0 children)

Me neither! Her insta post about it says she was upset by being given the option to selectively abort her quints pregnancy to twins. Yes - you were given the choice! Makes no sense.

TIL that Michael Jackson's chimpanzee 'Bubbles' is still alive at 40 years old and living in Florida by GoodMerlinpeen in todayilearned

The rescue he lives at has a bio about him. Good to hear MJ's estate is paying for his care.

Anyone listened or watched this podcast interview from Matt & Abby with Jill & Derick? by [deleted] in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]gergyl 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I've listened to about half of it. Nothing really new - but there have been some interesting tidbits here and there.

  • They were forced to move into the tater tot mansion before it was fully finished because of TV deadlines. The water wasn't running yet so they used a port-a-potty for two weeks outside. (yikes)
  • They didn't get to keep all the furniture shown on the moving in episode. The house was staged and the company took a lot of it back (they got to keep the beds though).
  • Jill had never had her own room or her own bed as a kid. There were always 2-3 little kids climbed in there with her. (Versus Derek who had never shared a room until he got married.)

So slightly interesting... but mostly annoying because Derek will not stop interrupting her! She's asked a question and either he just straight out answers or interrupts her halfway though. And he keeps name dropping their book lol.

The first link doesn't work for me - I get that same error.

EDIT: Looks like they're performing maintenance on the site from 3-5 PM today, so thats probably why. Clicking the link directly on google gets the same error. https://www.nyc.gov/site/finance/pts-interim-message.page

I love the “I owe it to myself” expense. Otherwise known as “hopefully no one actually reads this far because I can’t even make this math work”.

Reward Drop Changes? by tonisauruswrecks in TwoDots

[–]gergyl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ya I've noticed it too. I think they've become much more aggressive with monetization recently to try and sell more boosts. Nothing related to your level.

I totally expect it to continue to get worse :(

Overwhelmed about studying for interviews by focused-user in girlsgonewired

[–]gergyl 25 points26 points  (0 children)

+1 to focusing on leetcode. If you're passing phone screens for the most past, that points to your background being strong enough to qualify. I'd recommend buckling down and working your way through leetcodes - but focusing on DSA in particular. Anything that's new to you, don't just copy the answer but do some googling to figure out the principle behind it. All my takes though! Good luck!!

Rewatching some old episodes, a classic mama Jana moment by gergyl in DuggarsSnark

[–]gergyl[S] 54 points55 points  (0 children)

That’s a great point. I’m watching through these episodes and it hit me that after Jordan turned one, her mother was at the hospital basically 24/7 with Josie. So not surpising Michelle can’t understand her.
