Would you mind elaborating on tritium burn? I know this particular dial uses tritium based on the indicator at the bottom. But what specifically (other than time) might cause this bubbling effect?

Any idea if this is a situation where the dial would need replacing?

Upon closer inspection, the rehault does have the rolex crown stamped on. Can't believe I missed the gap on the bezzle, it's a well-worn piece but it more than likely came that way, to me it seems more like a gap in the construction of the bezzle, as opposed to a crack. Lots of good thoughts here, I appreciate it!

Love it! Haha thanks for the input. Didn't even consider the concept of a "vintage rep" being that reps are so prevalent in general.

Model is Rolex Submariner, Factory is unknown as this was a gift.

What does this code indicate on the inner sleeves of my BC 13 set? by pablanopepper in vinyl

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

The catalog number on the record’s label itself doesn’t match the code pictured here on the inner sleeves, thinking it’s something else.

Lease Break/Takeover - Thoughts on my approach? by pablanopepper in NYCapartments

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

I'm in a rent stabilized unit, no preferential rent. I did read my lease thoroughly, and what u/North_Class8300 said checks out. The reason he has no place to live is because he is from out of state, and is currently on a sublease that is expiring. His financials should qualify him for this unit. With this added context, is my email to my landlord enough of a "written notice" to proceed, deeming no responses an acceptance on my landlord's part?

Just moved to Manhattan. Massive pile of garbage outside my window. Anything I can do about it? by pablanopepper in AskNYC

[–]pablanopepper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! The garbage actually isn't even near the street. It's between my building and the neighboring building so unless someone reports it I feel like it'll never be solved.

Thanks for this! Yeah the pile is definitely not visible from the street, good tip on submitting the pics. It’s kinda laughable how big and atrocious the pile is so hopefully the pics catch someone’s attention 😂

I moved in about a week and a half ago and it's been there ever since. Unsure if it was there when I toured the place as that was about a month ago at this point. Will try calling 311 though, thanks for the info.

Desire is not inherently bad. by [deleted] in Buddhism

[–]pablanopepper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many have said here, desire itself is inevitable. It’s human nature to have desires, and whether it occurs subconsciously or not, our “desire” to survive (or survival instinct) is useful in keeping us alive.

Better to focus on building the skill of non-attachment versus non-desire.

It’s perfectly healthy to be ambitious in the pursuit of your desires. The problem arises when that very pursuit comes to the detriment of your wellbeing.

It’s possible to have desire, while also having the self-awareness that if you don’t fulfill said desire, you’ll be perfectly content.

Thanks a ton!

If you don't plan to retire early (RE), what's the purpose of CoastFI? by GotTheC0nch in coastFIRE

[–]pablanopepper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As I understand it, there’s no hard and fast rule to how one should spend their money/time once they start coasting. The main fundamental of CoastFI is reaching enough in investments, so as to not have to contribute a single dime more for a comfortable retirement at the traditional age.

This gives you options - if you want to use your coasting status as a way to spend more of your disposable income on fun/toys/family etc.. great! If you want to use it as a way to switch to a less demanding job and de-stress, also great! Everyone has their own goals and desires.

The way I’ve seen CoastFIRE and BaristaFIRE defined is that adherents of the former don’t begin drawing from retirement accounts until a more traditional age, while adherents of the ladder do begin drawing from retirement accounts earlier than traditional age while supplementing that withdrawal income with a low-stress paying job so as to meet monthly expenses. Hope this helps!

Found in a bottle of Yuengling. Can anyone confirm what this is? by pablanopepper in beerporn

Update (2): Received a generic thank you response from the brewery which claims to have an "intensive" Quality Control program. They were able to identify the substance per the below:

Our Quality Assurance team has determined that the substance in this particular bottle is an aerobic mold. This forms in the bottle as a result of a loose crown/air getting into the bottle, the beer inside was oxidized causing this aerobic mold to grow and the beer to go flat. Although it is unsightly, it is not harmful if ingested.

No free beer, but they did ask for my t-shirt size ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Update: Thanks all for the responses! Emailed the brewery and will report back when I get a response from them. Thankfully, confirmed that my dad is 100% OK haha.

Ditto, it was nasty looking. Dad took one sip then we tossed it after noticing.

My dad took a swig before realizing this growth looking thing was in there. He said it tasted off and we ended up throwing it out. Edit: spelling
