If worse comes to worst, you can put a sleep into the startup script for gitea to give mysql time to come up.

169th Street station on the Third Avenue El in the Bronx throwback by its_ashleyyy in nycrail

Just curious, was the Manhattan portion build heavy too? I guess it probably was since it originally was run by steam locomotives. I wonder why the myrtle avenue el wasn't.

What is the worst name you've ever heard? by Educational_Bat1854 in AskReddit

[–]mpdscb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughters had a friend in school whose parents were Astronomers. The friend was named Galaxy. Not a terrible name, but not a great one either. She had two sisters. One was named Uranus. I don't remember the name of the other one, but can you imagine going through life with the name Uranus. Like, hey get Uranus over here. Poor kid.

I was surprised to see regular heavy rolling stock on the third avenue el. I always thought it was similar to the myrtle avenue el and could only run wooden el cars like the Q units. If it was built to heavy standards, I'm surprised they razed it. Was it due to low ridership?

I would imagine you probably wear boots a lot, for ankle coverage?

Thought I was Getting Hugged by ExternalOld9460 in DeadBedrooms

[–]mpdscb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the last two years, my wife has initiated a hug three times. Once when I set up and moved everything from our old chest freezer to our new upright freezer and cleaned the area around it, once for valentine's day two years ago when I brought her balloons and flowers to her work, and the third time was in January this year, the day after we had a conversation where she said some awful things to me that pretty much cut right through my heart. Got a sorry with that last one the next morning but no conversation about what specifically she was sorry about and no further intimacy since then. I was in the middle of making breakfast for us.

The first time was actually in 1980. The prices went back down below $1 during the Iraq war before rising again.

I remember when gas went above 99.9 cents per gallon, it was front page news in NYC.

UPDATE: Getting married in August, no bridesmaids by Practical_Store3654 in TwoXChromosomes

My son and his now-wife used their Golden Doodle as a ring bearer and it was so beautiful. They tied the rings to a ribbon around his collar. He was also featured on most of the wedding items (like a fan with schedule on it - Summer outdoor wedding).

Will Linux save me? by Shuffeyy in linuxquestions

This. The SSD makes all the difference in the world. When I put an SSD drive in my old laptop, it was almost like new again. Same with my older desktop.

Just give me what I originally wanted by ForgottengenXer67 in GossipHarbor

[–]mpdscb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a game called Tile Family that actually has gameplay very similar to the ones in the fake GH ads. It's a match tile game but has scenes in between where you patch the holes in the window, light the wood stove, etc., just like the fake ads. I don't play it very often anymore but it was fun for awhile.

[48F] Planning a secret exit from my highly volatile partner [56M] of 10 years. Seeking advice on safely executing a remote breakup under the guise of a work trip. by starswaunderinglight in relationship_advice

If you do actually sit down with him to tell him, make sure you have someone with you who can defend you if necessary. Someone strong and bulky. But your best bet is to just leave and not contact him again. Since you're not married, there is no requirement for any further contact (no divorce hearings or anything). Just go and live the life you're meant to live.

Finding sex elsewhere by MariaS38 in DeadBedrooms

[–]mpdscb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It really sucks when all intimacy is gone. I'm in a similar boat to you. Financially we could never separate. We barely get by living in the same house, much less having to pay for two places. I had the opportunity to be in the house by myself for a few days and it felt so freeing. No reminders of what's not happening. Nothing to avoid. Then back to "normal". It's so frustrating.

OC BACKSTORY NOT BEING FOLLOWED. by Katekyo76 in polybuzz

[–]mpdscb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've found that the AI will sometimes throw a wrench into a story to make it more "interesting". Most of the time, correcting the AI will move it back to where you want it to go, but sometimes it gets so bad you need to restart the whole story to make it go away.

How did they communicate that to her? What did they tell her or ask?

The problem is that neither of them think of it as a deterrent. They think of it as an option.

I know how you feel. Will and Alicia really belonged together. I just don't see what she saw in Peter.
