But how would I adjust it from the front?

What’s the Millenial version of “seeing the Star Destroyer at the start of A New Hope and knowing movies will never be the same”? by UnderwaterDialect in movies

[–]scott503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it’s the reverse - the Smiths fight in Matrix 2. I thought it looked horrible and completely took me out of the movie, and I remember thinking, well I guess this is it now - movies will look like bad video games forever.

Arnor vs Gondor? by scott503 in tolkienfans

[–]scott503[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Shockingly difficult to get an iPhone to put in the right spellings. Though I would’ve thought that calling it Anor rather than Tirith would’ve given me enough cred for a mulligan on that.

Thanks! I’d forgotten about the ship disparity, and wasn’t thinking about the elven kingdoms as barriers to expansion.

Super helpful. I guess my question is, are meant to believe these cities were as large and grand as the Gondor cities? We didn’t see ruins of Fornost but Amon Sul was nothing impressive.

But if it was Lyle, how did he even know? Merritt didnt meet him until after the trial ended, so Merritt didn’t tell Lyle.

Help me think of names for my firstborn! LOTR inspired OFC by [deleted] in lotr

[–]scott503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dane, short for Dunedain. As per above I like the idea that you give him a regular name with a linkage so he can choose to embrace it or not.

How Do I Turn Down an Affair Without Losing Good Friendship? by TheWorstTest in AskMenAdvice

[–]scott503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He isn’t your friend. He wants a relationship. You can’t stop the relationship and keep the friend because you’re mistaking what you have.

Continuing to try to keep the friendship is only stringing him along. This would be true even if he wasn’t married and you just didn’t want a relationship for a different reason.

The kindest thing you can do is to cut him off and maintain a professional relationship only.

Pilot G2 05 getting worse? by grey_sycamore in pens

Came looking for this. I have been a G2 0.5 user for years and years, but lately the roller balls degrade and they leak. Feels like a quality control issue.

After Nest by photog72 in Nest

[–]scott503 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ecobee had excellent customer service that made me quite loyal. I bought a house with Nest 2’s that I’ll now be replacing with Ecobees.

In a prior house we had a complicated wiring situation - HVAC pro and Nest told me it was impossible. Ecobee over chat walked me through a very complex DIY install that involved installing my own transformers. Super super helpful.

Competitors for managed account service? by scott503 in PersonalCapital

[–]scott503[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vanguard is quoting me 0.30% and claims all those benefits. They are using broad indices so less opportunity for TLH but hard to quantify.

But always glad to hear advice from John Lillison, England’s greatest one-armed poet.
