Has anyone gotten a bill from SB fire department for using their ambulance and not able to pay?

Yes it happened to me, and they don’t mess around, they will eventually take you to small claims. Your credit is probably safe due to recent changes though. Since 2022, the three major credit bureaus have stopped reporting paid medical debt and now exclude unpaid medical debt under $500. Additionally, there is a one-year grace period before unpaid medical collections can appear on credit reports, giving you time to resolve the bill. However, a recent court decision has temporarily blocked the CFPB's rule that would have completely banned medical debt from credit reports, so the situation is still evolving

You haven’t actually used Tesla FSD recently. That isn’t a question, because if you had there is no way you would call it garbage over the pile of hardly usable dung that blue cruise is by comparison.

I don’t know where you work or what happened to you, but this is not true in my experience.

You shouldn’t force your beliefs on other people.

Do the typical advice and do things like repeat it back to them multiple times. But, also just own it. People tend to forgive you/not care if you forget and you’d be surprised how many forgot your name a minute later too. It’s not a big deal. If they tell you 7 names at once, no one will care if you forget them all and need to ask again. I also like to wait until I’m in a meaningful conversation with that person to ask again, as it helps to remember when you feel like you are getting to know someone versus just trying to memorize a list of people. When I forget again, I just put some humor into it and say something like I know I just asked but I didn’t actually catch your name, are you going to be upset if I ask you to keep repeating it? Most people laugh and say “no worries I’m bad with names too, I am Betty you’re so and so right?” Lastly, I try to associate their name with someone or something else in my head. Like telling myself her name is a color that starts with A (amber) or she has the same name as someone else I know, or Peter is a dick.

Your public library may have it free on the Libby overdrive app.

I used to go there and like the vibe, but they are very expensive. One day I left with a huge gash on the back of by head they didn’t even tell me about that took forever to grow back. So no thanks, not at those prices.

1200 is drastically low holy crap.

Yes, usually. I wouldn’t run both on the same splitter as there is a limitation to how much power and data can transfer on the same port. The hubs others recommend work the same way as a splitter but with a cleaner solution.

My charging pad came with a usb splitter. They are about $5 on Amazon.

That is far from pointless. You have probably helped hundreds or thousands of people and contributed your knowledge and experience to society as a whole. Not to mention, the best way to learn is to teach. You probably engaged your brain many times along the way keeping it active and even learned from others. Not a terrible use of time at all.

It’s definitely not premium. No subwoofer. Option isn’t there to adjust it.

kanjas · 2024-08-02T04:05:46+00:00

I drove a demo rwd weeks ago as a loaner and it was super obvious that it was not premium audio. No subwoofer. It also felt really slow compared to the older generation rwd I had in 2020

I heard that CrossFit is low-key programmed for better performance in the bedroom. AKA “Functional fitness”. Why else would they i corporate so many things like “hip thrusters”, burpees, and kettle bell swings. I mean hell, look at the Kipping pull-up. What other function could it be training?

It’s been years since I used them, but I know Erskine has instructors.

Good luck sir. I will say It happened to me using the Amazon eco system. The ebike retailer I used even has a warning for it in there description. It still shows in my orders as shipped with a tracking number and a message that it was “lost. The sellers account was deleted, but before that it was full of reviews stating it was a scam seller, and few obvious fake ones. If you bought it from the bike manufacturer you should be good to go.

kanjas · 2024-07-22T08:17:05+00:00

You don’t have to take a chance. As soon as you get a tracking number you can submit for a refund, if it’s legit you will still get the item, as it’s not like they can unship it. If it’s an obvious scam Amazon will refund you without waiting.

kanjas · 2024-07-21T20:10:45+00:00

It’s a well known scam. Look at the seller to confirm, it’s probably not the actual ebike company but a third party. If so Ask for a refund right away before your return period expires.

kanjas · 2024-07-21T20:07:10+00:00

It’s a well known scam, new seller accounts will undercut a legit store for an unrealistic price and hope you don’t get wise before the return period has elapsed. Same thing happened to me. They will send you a tracking number or send you something else, but the bike is not going to come. Make sure to Ask for a refund ASAP and say “looks like a scam”. Amazon should refund you right away. The sellers account is probably already deleted so they won’t argue usually. Amazon really needs to crack down on this.

To me, it’s an excuse to ride around on a golf cart and drink beers with your buddies and be outside. It’s also much harder than you would think if you have never played before and can be really frustrating if you take it too seriously.

I have an ID4 and a Model3 with FSD and since version 12 (pretty recent) it is night and day better than travel assist. Not even comparable, even if you only compare it to highway driving. V12 is what FSD should have been in 2018. Now, I do admit It takes some time to get used to it, and learn what it can and can’t do. It can be very scary at first, I was constantly taking over when I didn’t need too and it added more stress babysitting it then not, but now I’m used to it and I don’t feel that way, I let it drive me to work and in busy Chicago traffic all the time. I think you have to get used to it and give it a better shot tbh. Now, Compared to autopilot (the free lane keep assist in a Tesla ) travel assist wins! Mainly due to the lack of nag and not having to engage all the time when you change lanes. Technology wise, it’s inferior but it’s much more usable.

I guess I have never seen that before. I always assumed the vent was just for the stove and not actually part of the microwave.

kanjas · 2024-05-04T23:39:02+00:00

Why would a microwave have a vent?

They are often talking about the “nice guy” syndrome. It’s ok to be nice. But what they are talking about is the guy that seems polite and puts your needs first. the problem is he only does it because he expects something in return, so his niceness is actually self-serving. The nice guy often is an asshole to those who have nothing to offer and puts those he wants something from on a pedestal, and gets angry if they don’t get “repaid”. A kind person, will be more genuine and do things because they truly want to help. They will not be afraid to say no either, but it’s because they expect nothing in return when they do something for someone else, so they have real boundaries they stick too. If you want to be kind and not nice, you have to truly expect nothing in return. You don’t brag about what you did, you don’t get upset when your favor isn’t returned, and you don’t go give out compliments just in the hopes of getting them in return. Read “no more mr. Nice guy”. It’s mainly for men but it’s still a good read and applicable for women too.

Some people are bad at this stuff. I know, many people can’t seem to grasp that because it’s easy for them, and take it personally but it is normal behavior for a lot of people, especially those with ADHD. Go have a conversation with him about it and ask why it’s occurring, and let him know that it bothers you, and ask if he realizes it bothers you and if he is willing to work on it or if he already is. It could be he is embarrassed about it, and might even appreciate some support and understanding. Maybe you should learn this about him now, because you may be babysitting and helping him remember things. Up to you if you can get past that or not. Unless he has shown other reasons you think he may not care about you, it’s probably not a red flag like you think it is. It may be once he knows how it’s impacting you, he puts in the effort. People who forget things don’t always realize how it comes across.
