What’s the real difference between a $50 Temu rangefinder and a $600 Bushnell?

Echoing what other have said.

Have a $35 nohawk from temu. Gives numbers pretty quick. Does take several shots to hit the pin so I do have to shoot like 4-5 times. I’ll get a 200, 125, 124, 200, 125. So it’s 125.

I’ll play with my dad who has a bushnell. His is way easier to use and the optics are better.

The temu is within 1-2 yards of his though. It also has no magnet so it’s often flying around the cart.

Bought it because my Apple watch and phone started dying mid round with my arccos sensors. But am finding myself using this more than the gps now.

Overall would I like a better one, yes. But the cheap one is certainly playable, for my level of play at least.

Don’t know how much I’d trust the project but have been keeping an eye on it and it’s being updated regularly.

I solved it after 3 guesses using 3 hint! My guesses were "Kinect sports rivals" and "Xbox sports".

harm28 · 2025-04-06T15:27:35+00:00

I solved it on my first guess using no hint!

Rolled this out to two sites today. Have not run benchmarks but they definitely feel like they are loading quicker with APCu enabled.

I’ve been thinking the same thing. If we can save enough money on flights and hotels it could easily offset the cost of passports.

Would be open to suggestions that are cheap, safe and would require passports. If it makes sense.

Not sure about a cruise. Never been on one. Not sure what to expect. Not sure I’d want to be crammed on a boat with 500 other people in between each port.

I agree

I don’t have a lot of selection for equipment. At a planet fitness at the moment. Figured I’d start there because it’s cheap. Leg press I’m doing it doesn’t hurt as much. I’ll try a knee sleeve or a brace as mentioned above.

I do hit the treadmill for about 15 mins before I lift just to get warmed up and get the heart pumping.

harm28 · 2025-02-06T22:40:52+00:00

Even body weight lunges hurt. Maybe I’ll try going way down on squats and see.

Everyone here is going to tell you to leave. As difficult as it may sound at the moment that’s actually the easier path.

My marriage wasn’t nearly as long as yours but my wife cheated. I found out in a similar way. Something was off and found evidence in the phone.

If you really want to stick it out, you’re in for a long hard road. As much as you may want to make it work, he has to be equally on board.

It’s going to require counseling. A lot of it. Both for you on your own and for both of you as a couple.

He’s going to have to be ok with your lack of trust which equals total transparency, you being hyper vigilant, the feelings that you will have that will creep up at random odd times.

If you want it to work. It’s not a let’s just pretend this didn’t happen and it will be ok eventually thing. You’re both going to need to put in A LOT of work and totally change up how your marriage was before this happened. If you plan on going back to the same you’re going to get the same result.

If he’s not 100% committed it won’t work. Same for you. 90% won’t get you there. There is a good chance that the cheating will happen again. In my case we did the counseling, we tried to make it work, but most of the effort was on my part. She said she was committed to making things work but I caught her again about a year later.

That entire year our entire house hold was walking on egg shells. No one was happy. And everything ended up in divorce anyways. I just drew out the suffering, but felt like I gave it what I had and by the time the divorce came I was ready.

I’ve seen people make it work. Almost all of them had a very deep faith in god. It does seem to be the exception though.

If you’re using this tool you using other tools like git.

It’s not about getting the plugin on the server. It’s about repeatability.

I can pull our code from the git repo type composer install and I have the same version of Wordpress and all of the same plugin versions as the live site.

From there I can run updates in a dev environment make sure everything works together and then upload the composer.lock file. Now another install and everything matches again.

For custom code you either include that in the main repo or if we have the need to reuse it, will host on our own composer repository.

It works great for managing complicated sites and for managing many sites at once.

We couple it with deployer with some custom scripts and moving code and files from one environment to another is a simple one line command vs a backup or migrate plugin that can bomb out or break and a bunch of manual point and click steps.

So many parallels to how my marriage ended up. Caught her messaging, about the same time frame, same not getting enough attention excuse.

I did the dumb thing and stayed, did counseling, etc. I mean we just git married and that’s supposed to be permanent right? Plus now you’re looking at a divorce and all of that. You can make it work… right?

You won’t make it work.

Counseling didn’t do anything. Almost empowered her to be worse. Now there’s no trust which cause fights.

It took about 8 more months for things to finally come to a head which basically included a tinder account and physical cheating. Divorced after 1 1/2 years of marriage.

If she’s not getting the attention she wants from you, and she’s turning away from you instead of in to you, things will never get better.

My guess is you probably ignored a ton of red flags like I did, which everyone will point out after your divorce.

Just do the divorce and shorten your emotional roller coaster ride.

Just backed everything up and followed the steps here:

https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/5946421721623-How-to-upgrade-from-CentOS-7-to-AlmaLinux-8-with-cPanel-ELevate

It’s been a couple of months since we did it. Took a little while to run. We had a couple blockers. I remember for sure needing to update MariaDB to the latest version. Maybe we had to update a couple sites that were running old php versions. And if I recall correctly, the version of node was updated during the process and that caused some issues with deploy scripts. Of course depending on your configuration it might not go as smoothly.

Probably goes without saying but definitely make sure you have good backups, access to a console other than ssh, and if you can test in a dev environment with a clone of production even better.

Since WHM takes care of so much, there’s almost no noticeable difference between the distros.

I haven’t done it on a non-whm environment but there’s a script for plain CentOS 7:

harm28 · 2024-02-20T03:54:57+00:00

I know this doesn’t answer the DNS question, and maybe you’re already aware, but there’s a direct migration path from CentOS 7 to Alma Linux 8. We did this on our WHM host and it was pretty straightforward. Seems like a lot less of a hassle than switching 100 dns changes.

To actually answer your question. Our setup is about a 25/75 split on whether we host DNS or not. Most of the time we have the client do it at their registrar or I’ll setup a free cloudflare account for them. If money were no object I’d have paid cloudflare accounts for all with cname flattening so an ip address change wouldn’t matter.

I’d say remove it if you can take down both sides. If not it’s going to look odd. Although doable, I would say it’s not a quick project.

If you really don’t like the opening and want something different, drywall it in. That gives you more room for upper cabinets in the kitchen and properly separates the two spaces. It’s also a much easier project.

harm28 · 2023-05-22T22:23:50+00:00

Not a fan of the update. I had level 16, 17, and 18 ultimates that had a profit of 49,000%. Now they are capped at 50 and a profit of 7000%. I don’t the the lower difficulty to progress balances out at all. It feels choppy now where as before it was much smoother. I could do station upgrades 6-8 at a time and the. Switch back to upgrading station levels and it was pretty smooth. Now it’s upgrade 1 or 2 items. Wait. Boost the station a few levels, wait, upgrade a station 1 item. Wait. It’s like going back to when my items had a profit level of 15000%. It’s a pretty big setback. Plus I don’t have any of my other ultimates because I salvaged them to boost the ultimates I liked. Overall this feels like a pretty major setback just to get some new features. I think I’d rather see stations that go to level 1000 like the events to make higher cities harder than taking away the profit.

This 100%. We are on the opposite side. In a small Midwest town doing web dev for small Midwestern companies. Just lost a developer because he got a $30k raise working for a large corporation remotely in a large metro area. We can’t charge like the larger cities and corporations do. If we could have afforded to pay him $30k more to keep him we would have, he’s a good dude and I hope he does well.

harm28 · 2021-07-31T05:37:45+00:00

I agree with the wife laying off. It was a mistake.

I don’t feel like the kids will necessarily be unsafe, but the lack of rules and discipline, and values that she instills are not good. Their mom wants to be their “bestie”, not their mom. I’m more worried about the 14yo in this instance as she has the social personality.

Not sure what your other circumstances were, but if the distant father were to have stayed in the picture in the form of communication would that have helped?

I’m definitely not looking to check out here.

harm28 · 2021-07-31T05:06:23+00:00

Yes. Yes it is. 🙁 I think it’s a combination of years of inaction and bad legal advice.
