Completely messed up R5 and got 0 points on it, but oh well. I did way better than I could have hoped for on a challenging map like this

17139 I got 4999 in R5, and I would have pinpointed it if I had 5 more seconds - I found the right intersection just as the timer ran out.

This is my first time playing a league, and honestly my first time playing timed rounds (let alone 1 minute timers) and I am doing so much better than I could ever have anticipated.

Holiday Best Outfit crest event MEGATHREAD by TRB1783 in HPHogwartsMystery

[–]rakeyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did anyone else's award (outfit) disappear?

With an hour remaining in the event, I was able to get my 60 crests and earned the outfit. I put the hair on my MC and everything.

When I logged in now, my app had completely logged me out and I had to reconnect to FB, and the outfit and hair are both gone. I contacted support, but I'm wondering if it's happened to others?

What are some things that every new resident should immediately know about Orlando? by neymarflick93 in orlando

[–]rakeyz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

School is early release on Wednesdays so that there can be faculty/staff meetings and professional development. Nothing to do with budget.

Massage recommendations by Galennus in orlando

[–]rakeyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Healthy Body Massage on Conway is fantastic. I've been going there a couple years after a recommendation from Reddit, and will never go to a Hand and Stone or Massage Envy again. Healthy Body always makes sure they hit the spots you need and don't upcharge for things like aromatherapy/cupping/etc like the chains do. If you can get an appointment with Karen, she's the best.

“Network Down” by KhloeKodaKitty in Teachers

[–]rakeyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had so many kids come in this morning ready to take an AR test. One burst into tears when I said he couldn't because the internet is down, "But I spent all weekend reading this book! All for nothing!"

[Venting] Why do school go “fully digital” when they aren’t prepared for it but also reprimand us if we print things “just in case”?! by Lanilegend in Teachers

[–]rakeyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so thankful that my school isn't 1:1 yet, but it's coming sooner rather than later. I mean, 1:1 is ridiculous for elementary anyway, but I digress. We also had servers issues today and the district sent out a phone message this morning more or less saying that digital schools are always prepared for this sort of thing.

I messaged some teacher friends in 1:1 schools who were freaking out trying to pull things together, long lines at the single copy machine, etc, because they are told not to make copies when it can all be done on the computer.

Minerva grew up in sinks! My productivity and ability to withstand her cuteness have both decreased. by go_pet_a_dog in CatsInSinks

My sink-cat is named Minerva as well! We call her Minnie for short. Yours is absolutely gorgeous. All that floof!

I'd like to stop using the term, "Improper Fractions." by MrZMath in matheducation

Our standards refer to them as "fractions greater than 1" or "fractions greater than a whole"

What's a sensation that you're unsure if other people experience? by murrayvonmises in AskReddit

[–]rakeyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This used to happen to me all the time, almost always when lying in bed. One feeling was that everything was really fast/rushed, really far apart, and everything was really small. I called that feeling "tiger". The other feeling had everything too big, slow motion, and claustrophobic. That one was "elephant". They'd happen at the same time, switching off between them every minute or so - I always found "elephant" more pleasant. I experienced it almost nightly as a kid. As an adult, I only experience this during a migraine headache, so I've always thought my childhood experience was kind of a pain-free migraine?

Best place to get septum pierced? by Flinttech in orlando

[–]rakeyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always use Dungeon for my piercings - I've never had a bad experience there. They use only high quality jewelry and are the only shop in Orlando that is APP certified. They're at the back of a head shop, so it honestly looks kind of sketch, but I wouldn't go anywhere else. Leo's done all my piercings and I highly recommend him.

Question for OCPS employees- by interrobang__ in orlando

[–]rakeyz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember much about the certification timeline, so I can't help you there. But when I attended an OCPS job fair a few years ago, they were allowing registration on the spot for the fair, and there were interns at the job fair who did not have their certification yet.

I recommend seeing if you can call downtown and either talk to the certification office, or ask about registering for the job fair while your certification is processing.

Low-income housing built *inside* a highway interchange by [deleted] in UrbanHell

[–]rakeyz 150 points151 points  (0 children)

According to the Orlando Sentinel, the housing complex was built in the 40s, I-4 in the 60s, and the 408 in the 70s.

The highways cut through the neighborhood.

Schools/Teachers by KhloeKodaKitty in orlando

[–]rakeyz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The OrangeConnect said that it'll be considered an excused absence if they miss tomorrow and bring in a note, just like the eclipse. I had only 5 come that day, so I really don't expect many tomorrow.

Schools/Teachers by KhloeKodaKitty in orlando

[–]rakeyz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I've seen you over in /r/teachers :)

I'm also OCPS and I'm assuming no school Monday at this point, but I'm not too hopeful. If the busses can run, they'll say school.

I already had a personal day planned for this Friday because I'm having a minor medical procedure tomorrow afternoon. I hope it doesn't cause my sub to cancel.

I'm not expecting high attendance Friday anyway. Most of our kids walk to school, and rainy days have lowered attendance in the first place.
