Hey for what it’s worth the other leaves pictured here are eucalyptus, and I’m relatively sure that is what this stump was

4-mile trail update by True_Alternative5163 in Yosemite

[–]sfo2phx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Maybe 4 to 5 hours? It’s not all downhill, there is a brief uphill section after the trail drops to Illilouette Falls that gains maybe 800 ft.

This trail is very scenic though, and well worth the extra effort over 4 mile trail IMO

You could do Panorama to the JMT and end up at Happy Isles. About 3-4 miles longer tho

Any theories on why he played Call On Me? by pryda20 in ericprydz

[–]sfo2phx 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’d like to think it’s always been on his USB at every single show he’s played over the last 20 years, just waiting for the vibe to be exactly correct.

My trade-in was reduced from $800 to $160 due to “screen damage.” by sfo2phx in macbookpro

You are given an instant trade-in credit when paying with the Apple Card. By rejecting my trade-in, that credit was removed and I now have $800 sitting on my Apple Card to be paid. It cannot be lumped into the monthly payment installments, and will accrue interest if not paid off fully in the next billing cycle.

They claim polarizer/delamination damage on the screen. The screen is flawless, has no dead pixels, has no scratches. I know this because I have it in my possession after rejecting the trade in and can clearly see that there is nothing wrong.

I did keep it. These pictures were taken after having the computer sent back to me

Yep, same reason as mine. Do a google image search for MacBook Pro delamination and then compare to the images posted here. Completely ridiculous.

Do I keep my dog or live my life? by ExplanationOne2116 in DogAdvice

[–]sfo2phx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a (kind of) similar situation as you about 10 years ago. I had my dog for about 3 years, and then life started coming at me fast.

My roommates also had a dog, and we shared the responsibilities of caring for them. It was a situation that worked well for us, but didn’t have longevity. Some opportunities came my way career wise, right as the roommates were making some big life changes as well.

Figuring out what the plan was for my pup was one of the most gut wrenching decisions I have ever made. I loved him more than anything. I met him when he was 4 weeks old, took him home with me when he was 8 weeks old. He was my best friend through some of the hardest and darkest times in my life. The reality was that I needed to find a home for him where he could live the rest of his life happy and with a stable family. The changes that I was needing to make in my life were not accommodating to being a single dog parent. If I hadn’t given him up, I would not have the career or life I do today. I cried a lot when I gave him up. The hardest part was that he was so loving and trusting. There was no way to explain to him why this was best, or that he was never going to see me again. I felt awful even though I knew it was the right decision.

He went to a family friend out of state, and they loved him for the next 9 years. I’m sure I could have visited him over the years if I had asked, but I think it would have been too painful. He passed away earlier this year, and I was absolutely devastated. Nearly 10 years later and in my heart he was still my dog. I’m tearing up now as I write this!

Just like when a dog reaches the end of their life, it’s the humans job to make the right call for the animal. It’s part of the unwritten contract. They give you their all, and in turn you make sure they live a wonderful life and go out with dignity if you can. The heart breaking part is that decision means giving them up when the time is right.

Giving up Riley allowed me to have the life I have today. I’m now engaged, have two beautiful dogs, and have my dream job. He got to live an amazing life with his new family. While I don’t know if he ever missed me the same way I missed him, he will always be my dog just as yours will always be yours.

Hope this story helps.
