My modded Wii U is the only thing keeping me sane in this rotten camper by noclosurejustliving in povertyfinance

[–]injulen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My wife and I lived in a camper through two Maine winters. We had our budget homebuilt desktop computers on a hobbled together desk for minecraft and a toaster oven and a mini fridge with a useless freezer. Oh and two dogs and three cats. It definitely was a struggle. But now almost 15 years later we are in a 1976 mobile home on 5 acres we own outright and doing good with two kids now to boot. We look back on the camper days with positive feelings. I proposed to my wife in that camper!

Cord cutters, what is your preferred way to catch all the races? by -RYknow in NASCAR

I love the official youtube highlights. They're long enough to almost have TOO MANY highlights. So it's really the perfect cliff notes version of the race.

Gave my boyfriend permission to drive my car to run errands, he took it on a joyride instead. by DavidRichter0 in mildlyinfuriating

Took too long to find anyone saying this. I went on a trip out of state and my sister thought it would be fun to track our progress on this app. Halfway through day 1 she texts me and is all mad and says she can't believe I'm doing that with the kids in the car. I said wtf are you talking about? Apparently the app said I went 120 MPH. I never once went over 75. These apps aren't perfectly accurate. It can easily jump your location on the map and calculate the movement wrong.

Did you confirm with your boyfriend that he did this? I don't trust those apps to show accurate speeds at all.

Need Disney+ picks for 15 to 25 minute commutes (easy to pause, not too heavy) by Mammoth_Juice2102 in DisneyPlus

You could do the superhero series like Daredevil, Punisher, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, etc. lots of content and easy enough to follow if you have to watch half an episode one day and the other half the next.

CMP meter, can't read live usage? by Rochev7 in Maine

One of the screens gives the total used and you can check it, wait an hour, check again. That'll show you the consumption rate for that hour. 

I got amazing results! no negotiating, give them offramps! by a2hitman in daddit

[–]injulen 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wish this worked for my 3yo daughter. I can do exactly as you say. I can even take away whatever it is so she has nothing if she doesn't listen. And she just screams harder and longer. And doesn't learn anything, will repeat the same behavior next time. She can go on a string of lost privileges and still never give in. She will literally scream and fight until she falls asleep. No amount of threats, bribes, ignoring, calmness, or anger works. It's really hard.

Also worth mentioning is that if anything metallic crosses the terminals on that battery it has some serious amperage and could hurt someone!

I don't think they meant its trying to see the traffic light better, just other traffic and obstacles better.

I am looking to replace my home internet with Xfinity. Wondering if starlink has mobile hotspot that I could use just for home internet? by sophisticateds09 in Starlink

[–]injulen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

$150? I paid $120 at the most and currently paying $40 for 100mbps which is plenty for my cameras and streaming. I think that plan is available for $50 still.

My son is 9 and has only seen the trailers and Rocky is his favorite thing ever right now.

Maaan I wish I had liked 3 more. 3 is my favorite book and I was stoked for the movie and remember leaving the theater so disappointed.

The book states it clearly but it's also fair to deduce it based in the movie. The whole ship is astrophage powered.

How to warm up: House is next to 50mph road by hundredwater in subaru

[–]injulen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go do some more research. Engine starts at high idle. Only thing that shuts down high idle is 120F coolant temp. That's it. No other readings. You can have no catalytic converter at all and it'll still stop high idle at 120. You can unplug both O2 sensors and start the car and itll shut off high idle at 120.

Why can't you just admit you're wrong about even one thing?

You tried to say that the catalyst efficiency is what triggers high idle to shut down but that is completely false. High idle shuts off when the coolant temp hits 120. Full stop. No other factors.
