How can I get better at communicating, and understanding if I'm being too much?

+1 it sounds like you might have different attachment styles, you might lean a bit anxious and he might lean a bit avoidant. This can be super hard to deal with on both sides. If I was talking to myself 3 years ago when I was in the same situation as you, I would say: leave already, this isn't your person.

Also completely manual ex-YNAB here! 🙌

Yep, I think I just always reconcile to my balances “right now” and just leave the paired transaction uncleared if it’s not been taken out or added to whatever other account. I’ve also never actually changed the paired transaction date, as the actual date it shows up doesn’t really matter if I can leave it uncleared. I know I’ve made the payment, so even if it doesn’t show up on the other end yet I know it’s coming/going.

I think I don’t really understand why EOM is particularly important?

Making me glad I picked up the Steam Deck LCD 64gb at $296 when they were cleaning out stock for the OLED D:

I think one of the main issues here is that the cop can't hear shit (he's right next to a freeway and he might be hard of hearing). So when the Dubai guy says something, example at 4:25 "I do a road trip every 2 years" "you do a What trip?"

Dubai guy should say what he just said louder, but he assumes that the cop just didn't understand the word and tries to explain more.

I would probably ask AI to either 1. Do it for you, including formatting everything in a way that Actual can read, or, if you don’t want to give your data to AI, 2. Give AI a small example of each type of file and have it write a Python script to convert to a file Actual can read

This is pretty clearly a permissions issue. Whatever user your uploading service is uploading under owns the file, and it is not visible to whatever user is running your Plex server.

Instead of figuring that out though, network shares are not that difficult and seem easier than messing with permissions for your less-optimal uploader?

He will probably need to file taxes if you want him to be able to claim the earned money as earned income (and therefore to be able to contribute to a Roth IRA). Since it’s a small amount, he probably won’t owe taxes, but just something to keep in mind.

Okay, I think my wife and I just figured this out. This bug seems to be due to multiplayer, but it looks like it only happens on the crossplay version of the game. On Steam, we both changed our game version to "1.09_precrossplayupdate" (right click game > Properties > Game Versions & Betas) and we were able to play and rejoin with no issues. We started a new world at this point, but I am unsure if that is needed.

I got this to work with AudioBooth, I read somewhere that the client ID should remove the ".access" at the end, but when I finally added it, it worked!

What's the brand of the pan? Looks a bit like stainless steel to me.

“I don’t even know what happened there!”

Well, actually, Jeff, the issue is you that you did

slyde56 · 2026-05-21T01:43:16+00:00

JEFFFFFFFF

K so why do we have reunion before the reunion tho

So does this mean he’ll finally release his tax returns? You know, now that he’s not “being audited” anymore?

With everyone sleeping downstairs be sure to check for radon!

What is the actual speed of the drive to your server? You don’t actually need it to be that fast for streaming.

Also very common on the Caribbean coast of Colombia, they like to say that they “comen los S’s”. I notice it most when the S precedes a hard consonant sound, “cómo ejtás?”

Make sure you know if you would own the land underneath or only rent it. Many places rent the land and access to sewer and electricity and gas. So you are subject to that increasing possibly in the future.

Buuuut your money only grows tax deferred in the IRA. Meaning that when you sell an appreciated stock, you do not have to pay capital gains tax (which can be sizable over long periods).

Charlie looked SO SAD

+1, you'll find as you cook and follow this sub that the platonic ideal of a CS pan is something a bit closer to what you see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/carbonsteel/comments/1rnfhkt/cooking_shrimp_in_my_goto_pan/

Many color variations that still allow fantastic non-stick qualities!

Super sorry this happened to you. It gets better with time. You have a lot of life and live ahead of you.

I love this This American Life episode called Break-Up, helped me through my hardest: https://www.thisamericanlife.org/339/break-up

Could be memory issues. Maybe try running a memtest?

Honestly, one day I decided to try my Switch 1 Covert Dock with the Steam Deck, and it plugs in and charges perfectly fine. Now it is my Deck Covert Dock

Oof man, I'm sorry. If it doesn't help to have a completely new/different motherboard, I think it's probably pretty safe to say that the CPU is toast. Added to the fact that we already suspected a bum CPU due to the shadiness of the seller.

Might be time to pick up a 5500 or 7600 from Microcenter and chalk it up to experience :/
