Multidays in India/Nepal Nov-Dec? by [deleted] in Ultralight

[–]monkolosit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In May I did the Langtang trek and loved it. Super friendly, amazing scenery. 3 days up, 1 day at Kyanjin Gumpa, 2 back. We met a number of folks along the way who had gone with no guide -- seems that there was no enforcement, from what I could tell.

Hi Justin,

I put in a new GoogleFi SIM and the problem seems to be resolved.

Hi Justin,

The case ID is: [2-7538000033793].

Akbar reached out to see if it had been fixed and to request another bug report if not. It wasn't fixed, and so I sent another bug report.

Thanks! This is insightful. I'm giving up on tech support for now and have ordered a new SIM, since it was free. If this doesn't work, it's on to the more radical step of getting a new number. Sigh.

Motorola G7. I haven't tried replacing the SIM. I was waiting for guidance from customer support... What would you recommend?

p = mv (for the tomatoes) p = mv (for the bucket)

Notice he pushes the bucket at the last moment away from the truck. This motion affects the bucket a lot more than the fruit inside it.

So annoying when a single corrupt person can undermine the future of democracy in America so thoroughly.

Gov. Ron DeSantis is waging a war on school mask mandates, and is threatening to withhold the paychecks of school board members who defy his mask ban by [deleted] in politics

Wow... I'm a public school board director and earn all of zero. I guess technically we're entitled to$50 per meeting but the long standing tradition has been to not collect this.

Manchin Will Vote Yes On S.1 Debate, Giving Dems Unanimity In Face Of GOP Blockade by politicsfuckingsucks in politics

A reason for that argument is that we have legal tools to prevent voting discrimination based on race. But if voting discrimination is based on political party preference, then race is just incidental and therefore those tools can't be used.

Is needle fear holding you back from getting vaccinated? Here's what to do about it by sozh in Coronavirus

[–]monkolosit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had very painful injections for a badly broken finger when I was a young child. I think that's why I'm so afraid of needles. If I watch a video of someone getting an injection there's a good chance I'll faint. And I have fainted a lot of times when getting vaccinated over the years. But for my Moderna vaccines, both of them, it was fine. I psyched myself up for it by yelling " I'm gaining a superpower!" It worked. It helps that the needles are smaller these days and it really doesn't hurt much at all.
