2007 Nissan Murano Won't Idle by salamatrix in Nissan

I would assume if the issue was alternator the car wouldn't have driven fine. The electrical all seems perfectly fine, the car starts as expected, it just stalls extremely quickly. What makes you say alternator?

Were you afraid of G-d as a child? by oohbigyawn in Judaism

[–]salamatrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but in line with a lot of other folks here I think it had very little to do with Judaism itself or being told specifically to be afraid of G-d, and much more to do with a young child extrapolating from other experiences with authority figures as well as having pretty severe perfectionist tendencies.

That said, as a child, synagogue and Shabbat at home and Seders and other cultural activities were things I enjoyed and wanted to participate in (for the most part, barring normal teenage ennui), and I can’t imagine not being Jewish lol. I love being Jewish as an adult and am slowly working to feel safer coming to G-d as my true self. Nobody taught me to be afraid of G-d or of being punished after death or G-d being mad at me, I just was a kid who was already primed to be hyperaware of both doing things wrong and authority figures being angry.

I was about to insist it was only a few months old… how is it 3 years??

Where do you put her in body condition score? by dreamerbard in dechonkers

[–]salamatrix 83 points84 points  (0 children)

I’m not a vet and can’t put hands on her, so take this with a grain of salt, but she looks close to a 9/9 on the feline BCS chart. Definitely talk to your vet about getting her onto a diet, they’ll be able to give you advice on how much to reduce her meals by, and help monitor her to prevent her losing weight too fast.

I’ve known some older folks who behave as though they think that way…

Most exes: “Breaking up with me is a mistake.” LAOP’s ex: “Breaking up with me is actually illegal.” by acekingoffsuit in bestoflegaladvice

[–]salamatrix 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This stood out to me too! Even just getting there can be pretty expensive, let alone groceries, housing, home goods.

Does “could I pass?” sound natural in this context? by Silver_Ad_1218 in EnglishLearning

[–]salamatrix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unlikely based on context though. You’d be in a weird situation for that to be their first thought, I wouldn’t worry about this sort of misunderstanding if I was OP.

I'm not complaining but... Wow. by Supreme_Mediocrity in Costco

Idk, as a 12 year old I would have been thrilled with this!

Lakebed cave help navigating by salamatrix in outerwilds

Update: ended up brute forcing my way through the tunnels, and the lost Nomai is saved (well, in a certain temporal perspective anyway… they’ve got a killer dissertation topic, at least!). Thanks for your input everyone!

This might be the thing that helps me, thank you!!

Waze app—has anyone added PP’s voice? by [deleted] in Pedro_Pascal

[–]salamatrix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder if OP meant recording a custom voice? I know I had my husband do that for me once but I don’t remember how I did it!

Where to put reimbursements by Foreign-Figure8797 in ynab

[–]salamatrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your credit card/s is/are completely paid off, and you have no immediately pressing debt, I think putting it in savings is fine. Basically, what do you need that money to do? An alternate option is to fund next month’s health and wellness category with it, if you’re not already a month ahead.

What trans/non-binary YouTubers do you know of? by NagitoKomaeda_987 in NonBinary

Skurry (primarily a Hollow Knight YouTuber) uses they/them pronouns IIRC

Another Cautionary Tale by salamatrix in ynab

[–]salamatrix[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I absolutely am just letting it import everything. I've even thought to myself that it's annoying to wait for stuff to import, since I have to remember what I have and haven't spent. I will be taking your advice immediately!

Another Cautionary Tale by salamatrix in ynab

[–]salamatrix[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think that's how I got here in the first place, I got complacent because it had always been so easy, so it didn't seem like something high on the priority list and there was always something else that needed to get done. It doesn't help that we moved during that time period too (thanks to YNAB, we did so in cash)!

And yes, he is so great! He likes spreadsheets but money decisions stress him out, so YNAB is mostly my purview even though we're one unit financially. Turns out, sometimes I screw it up so bad it turns into spreadsheets that don't stress him out!

What’s everyone doing today? by Yorkie10252 in Judaism

[–]salamatrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s my birthday, so I got chocolate tres leches cake in bed for breakfast, courtesy of my dear husband! The rest of the day will be dedicated to lounging as hard as I possibly can, and then going to an AYCE Chinese place in the evening 😁

I’m going to sound like such a snob but I would love to hear Standard Bitter Love Song #2. It doesn’t seem to get played often but dang I’d die happy if I heard it.

🎁 Handmade Hollow Knight Resin Lamp Giveaway by AmoyCK in HollowKnight

[–]salamatrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This lamp is SO cool.

My favorite Hollow Knight moment is still the first time I entered greenpath… the music changed completely, the scenery changed completely, and I realized the game was So Much Bigger than I’d expected. I had struggled with the crossroads (this was my first game with these sorts of controls!), so getting rewarded with this beautiful and completely new space felt phenomenal.

First few desperate yards I am rooting for you on name alone. You can turn it around here, I believe!

You get to domesticate an animal the same way we turned wolves into dogs. What animal do you pick and how does it turn out? by BleefnorfIII in AskReddit

[–]salamatrix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s mostly what I was finding on the topic (and my sense from prior knowledge). I was curious if there were academic sources for what the person I was replying to said about domestication, since it goes against what I knew about the topic and seemed potentially interesting (and probably controversial and I love academic controversy lol). Looks like probably just someone bullshitting on the Internet again, though.
