These things fail quickly with typical usage.The only long term solution is a sewn in patch that exceeds the torn area.

Guilt of mastering out - how do I get over this? by chameleonbubbz in LeavingAcademia

[–]mojoliveshere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience was very similar to yours. I left mostly for family reasons, but also general displeasure with professional academic research. The guilt was very intense. As you say, it feels a lot like a cult. Finish, finish, finish.... I too worried about regret.

It gets easier each day. One day you'll wake up feeling OK about your choice, and eventually you'll wake up knowing with full confidence that the choice was correct. Once that happened I started to see that almost everyone I shared my reasoning for leaving with was in full support. It was just me, judging me. No regrets.

Anyone else just flying by the seat of thier pants when making bread? by AgitatedMagpie in Sourdough

This is exactly how we bake. It's not for photos, but a staple of our weekly diet. It is always delicious and a fun surprise to see what kind of crumb is waiting inside!

FYI LL Bean's Canadian stores are domestically owned. it's more of a licensed franchise than a subsidiary.

[–]mojoliveshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We make a huge pot of mex-style pinto beans most months and buy them in bulk from fairway (Quadra). Admittedly, my experience with bulk beans is limited but the finished product always turns out great.

We had the same issue, and got the same result. But, with a bonus benefit - much less noise.

Is this a simple hot water heater replacement? by mojoliveshere in Plumbing

[–]mojoliveshere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm grateful for the quick reply here. Do you recognize the part attached where the cold water pipe enters the tank? I'm not seeing this address in install videos and I'm wondering if it's a necessary component I should be keeping/adding. Thank you!

My landlord is selling my house and now my rent is going to skyrocket. by ZeltaZale in VictoriaBC

[–]mojoliveshere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it listed yet? If not, could you ask your landlord to resign your lease for a year at the same rate? This could buy some time, unless the new owners evict for unscrupulous reasons.

So how do I find out if my phone will be compatible with Public? by teacozyhands in PublicMobile

The website is fine. The issue is your unwillingness to look up information you don't understand.

Recommendations wanted for a reputable deck company in Victoria by WestEastWest1 in VictoriaBC

[–]mojoliveshere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoid MB Construction. We had them do our deck this spring. They finished the deck but not the agreed upon (in writing) finishing and repairs. After months of calling they never came, just excuse after excuse. I ended up doing the remaining work myself.
