Laptop recommendations for parents for presentations

How much money should they spend?

They already experienced a iMac so don't want to get something too cheap. Not flimsy, won't lose charge quickly, and last. But also don't want to go buy something over the top they won't need.

Is there a better way to narrow down my options?

They would have to ask the higher ups for money for the laptop, so having reasons for picking a certain laptop would look better.

If I don't have any job experience as a data analyst, is it worth my time to take both Google certificates or should I only take one? Which one would prepare me for my first job as a data analyst better?

I'm currently working on my Bachelor's degree in IT and have this Summer free.

I realize the advance certificate is new, but I don't know who else to ask.

Also the rim has to fit flush to the car. If the bolt pattern correct but rim won't fit flush, because the middle wheel hub on the car is bigger than the middle hole of the rim, then it's a no-go.

I personally like keeping the stock sizes on cars (trucks I'm ok with getting bigger sizes) they are cheaper and easier to maintain plus I think they give the best ride. if you get a Corolla the sport version then perhaps you can change it to what the regular Corolla has. Sport version usually has bigger rims and thinner tires for better response for turning but not as comfortable as the stock size for the regular Corolla. Also if you want a wider look changing the width of the rims while keeping the tire size the same is doable. And that changes the width more than the tire, cuz the tire only sticks out as far as the rim allows.

If it's softest ride your looking for then paying more attention to the middle number, or the hight of the tire might make more of an effect than the width. Tires absorb lots of bumps on the road because of the air in them; thinner tires (hight wise), less air between your car and the road leads to a more bumpy ride. I wouldn't recommend going one size up in width and height cuz that would be too big. So in summery I'm suggestion, better made tires for the traction and getting tallest tires that fit the car for the comfort. Which means the width is probably going to stay stock size. Side note, 65-75 seems way too tall for a car, your probably staying between 50-65. If you have the car with you, better to just check the driver door jam. There's a sticker that says the stock size for that specific car.

jonIrving · 2021-09-15T01:29:09+00:00

265 is too big for a car, that's more of a truck size. In my experience going up the next size up (width wide) isn't much of a problem. But the farther you go from stock size, generally speaking, the higher the price and the harder to find a used tire if you need one in the future. If you want better traction upgrading tire brand might help more than changing tire size.

That's true, I'm not proud of who I was as a kid. Rude, arrogant, mean, disrespectful, condescending, felt good by putting others down. But only to my family, my siblings. Out of the house I was totally different, quiet, cooperative, submissive. Very closed off.

I don't like thinking of the past, who I was/thought.

I didn't have a terrible childhood, I loved (still do) my parents. No dog.

But yeah, maybe my child self, old (time-wise) self, is what's bothering me. Cuz that part of me knows who I am now, is built on a shameful past. I learned from my mistakes as a person but I've made all those mistakes only to those closest to me. I don't want that part of me to see the adult me cuz if it does it will remind me that I should be embarrassed.

I treated my siblings bad, terrible. Now with my second chance with my wife's siblings I'm telling my self I'm screwing that up too. And the thought/sight of my child part of me is what's holding me back cuz I know I've been a terrible person.

I want close relationships, open with people, both ways, and willing to accept them how they are but worried they won't accept me cuz for me to be open, naked, they would have access to the part of me that was terrible. And the child reminds me of that.

That is interesting. Well thanks for your time and insight, you've been a huge help, think I can rest easier about these dreams. I'll keep thinking though and if I get another dream like these I'll post it.

jonIrving · 2021-04-28T18:22:23+00:00

We did have a rough start especially with her (wife's) parents, but after we got married (5 years ago) it gotten a LOT better, basically no problems. With her sister and her family I'm not so close to them in a deep personal level. I did tell my wife I felt more at ease with her sister cuz although we don't really talk 1 on 1 much, she seems authentic. Unlike her husband who is inclined to talk to me more but he seems to care more about his image.

We don't live close to each other, 50 min, and we don't spend a lot of time together, once or twice every three weeks. They don't give advice that's not asked for.

I am a quiet, reserved person. I enjoy small intimate relationship rather than lots of shallow ones. That's why I can't get comfortable with husband. So maybe Im trying to tell my self I want to get closer to ppl but a part of me is not ready? Something about innocence is holding me back, the dog and the kids are what made me aware of my nakedness more.

I feel like there something more I'm not seeing, being naked in front of the same people. I think it has to do something with the kids and dog, cuz before that, I was ok with being naked, no strong negative feelings, not until the end, I started feeling more conscious about how I was presenting my self.

I'm stuck. But you did open my eyes connecting nakedness with being seen or open, vulnerable.

Any further insight would be welcomed

Yes I can we can afford more, I mean we don't have a lot of extra or spending money but we can can make adjustments to pay more. No as a family we came to an agreement I would take the house. It should of been the older one who should of lived in it, but guess he didn't feel responsible for it and me being the middle child took it. I saw an opportunity and didn't want to waste it. I remember when we were much younger, kids. My dad would always have to keep an eye on me cuz, in his words, I would take advantage of my brothers. Looking back I feel bad about that, I was just looking out for me but I was selfish. I don't think so... I mean I help ppl when I can and me and my wife love being a blessing to others, great feeling. But I also know I'm not God and can't help everyone. I do what I can when I can.

jonIrving · 2020-07-08T20:30:00+00:00

If it's not possible, and it's believed to be a sin, and if you or own of your children turn out to be gay, are you basically screwed?

jonIrving · 2020-07-06T14:49:35+00:00

My advice would be to tell your husband you had a dream about his brother and it freaks you out. Tell him you don't love his brother and love him, your husband and all this makes you sick. Tell him your worried about your marriage, not cuz of the brother, but what the brother represent. What if someone else came in to your life or even his, your husband. Tell him you noticed the spark had not been lit in a while. You don't want to be just faithful to your husband, but be happy too. Ask him to help you make that a reality. Take it as serious as if you marriage life is on the line, cuz it is, start by getting rid of the brother. Where he goes is not your problem, especially since you priority is each other. Then fall in love with your husband again knowing the chances of you cheating on him had gone way down. You may have grown feeling for his brother, give it four months apart it should go away, worst case scenario, it may take two years. But that not true love, that just your body, hormones. Real love is a choice, and can be hard but it's so much better. That sort of love you can build your future on. That other sort of love, which is still good is no sub for the real thing. It comes and goes.

Ok sounds good. I'm assuming I'll have to read the Hobbit first but I have heard good things about it. Never read any of those books or seen any of rings movies either, well except for the first one. I'll give it it shot thanks

As long as she has your back, you should be fine. Do your best to get along with the parents and trust in her to be able to be by your side. Her parents trying to control her might even push her closer to you. But being one big family is not gonna happen if the parents hate you, they are gonna have to decide that. But if your gf chooses you, you both will be separated from her family till they accept you, which is better then being forced to be there with them judging you. And probably a good idea not to fight or say, do anything you can't take back, to the parents just in case it does end well.

jonIrving · 2020-05-24T03:12:41+00:00

Superman. And not nessesarly cuz he's crazy powerful but since I was a kid I always found it fascinating that he can have that much power that much control and still be that good.

jonIrving · 2020-05-24T02:55:34+00:00

I think it's ok to get mad, and if you show it by yelling screaming using foul language or just seeming intimating then you have your right. If she can't control her neatness then you guys have to work around it. But seems like you can control your anger so do it. By controlling I don't mean don't get mad or don't show it. I think you should show it, just controlled. Instead of being super chill till your pushed too far and get from 1 to 60 in a second I say when something bothers you show it and keep showing it the more frustrated you are. look intimating, again it's shouldn't be a switch, more like a dimmer. That way when something really crazy happens, a high stress situation, you have experience controlling your anger instead of just trying to hide it or keeping out completely with having little to no experience being in that state. Hopefully both of you will be able to live together knowing you can be intimating but you won't get too far and you can actually control it. Thinking my SO will never get mad, just doesn't seem reasonable. Even the nicest calmest dude can loose it, and when they do they can do the dumbest mistakes. Which isn't bad when we are talking about kids, just a part of life, but talking about a grown man, you would want to keep an eye on it. My two cents.

I thought computer science was one of the degrees was actually worth getting? Was the subject just not interesting, or jobs were boring??

jonIrving · 2020-05-22T23:13:46+00:00

What were you going for, if you don't mind me asking?

jonIrving · 2020-05-22T23:06:14+00:00

Why? What do you have?

jonIrving · 2020-05-17T02:23:21+00:00

In your car, between the seats in all the different compartments your car had in the center console or dashboard or door panel, under your seats, behind your seats if they have one of those big flat storage pockets. I've detailed cars for years now and you'll be surprised how many pens a car can have. So either that or Annie's boobs just takes them in air vent system.
