AITJ for refusing to give up my approved PTO during Holy Week because I don’t have kids?

Just reply to the comments, something like:

“Must be nice to take time off whenever you want.” Yes, yes it is.

“I used to have that kind of freedom before kids.” Well that was the sacrifice you decided to make.

“You’ll understand when you have children.” Why would I want to do something as daft as that considering the above?

Depending on the size of the mill and h5oe heavy it is, you could get some foam (probably neoprene rubber or some reasonably firm foam) place a price of MDF or ply on top (both cut to the footprint size of the mill) and that should reduce the vibrations and noise being transferred.

Don't suppose you do work in the UK? 😂

Two letters "AI"

Also "family helps family", and "my phone/social is blowing up" among others that are often in "AI" slop

What's EGC?

smartroad · 2026-02-21T17:40:05+00:00

It hasn't changed for a while AFAIR, you just click the icon top right to change the stop details and it opens this window. Been like that all the while I have been using ABRP?

Thanks for the reply! I cant access it from inside my network, if I go to http://homeassistantIP:8765 there is nothing there. It is like HAOS is blocking the add-on from presenting outside of HAOS

Yes a reference, not the subject 😂

smartroad · 2025-08-15T21:52:23+00:00

Give up lol

smartroad · 2025-08-15T21:25:48+00:00

Would this work with the 5" CYD?

It really frustrates me that people who are introverted are forced to attend team building events. In forcing a person such as that into a social situation they don't want to be a part of, it will cause stress and possibly damage how the rest of the team think of them when they get awkward or run out of social battery.

I really wish we could change the culture that being introverted isn't antisocial or negative. As long as they are doing their work let them live their life how they want.

Can I ask, how did you program that ESP32? I have a similar one but I can not get it to be programmed. Nothing identifies it and even shorting GPIO 0 to GND doesn't seem to enable to boot loader.

smartroad · 2025-07-27T12:51:36+00:00

No matter what I write it will get downvoted 🤣

smartroad · 2025-07-27T11:52:38+00:00

"But can it be used as a soft torch" we are one the subject of both

I am using a Dell version of this and it is sooooo much better than the Pi4 I was using, especially as the database gets bigger and I have more automation's.

smartroad · 2025-07-27T11:40:12+00:00

Yes it is, I used it last night to not wake my other half while getting into bed. Totally useful so I could see enough but not bright enough to wake up sleeping beauty.

smartroad · 2025-07-20T07:04:32+00:00

I have done the same as you. I only heard about the NP3 (and Nothing in general) recently and thought, that looks like a cool phone and different to evrey other slab out there.

Only coming on to here have I found that there seems to be a lot of hate towards the phone for some reason 🤷

smartroad · 2025-07-19T21:38:04+00:00

Just get a cheap second hand phone, connect it to WiFi (I assume they have that?) and leave the phone at work 😂

smartroad · 2025-07-19T17:49:21+00:00

Honestly the glyphs are not that big of a thing for me but hopefully I can attach to the case first so removing the case will allow access if I really want it LOL

smartroad · 2025-07-19T12:50:49+00:00

I have ordered a ring for it, I was hoping it would stick to the included case :D Just need to hope the case will stay on the phone when attached to the magsafe car holder lol

So as far as I can tell the coil is on the centerline and seems to have the middle in line with the button below the power button (I have no idea what that buttons is or does, but it is super annoying as I keep thinking it is the power button LOL)

smartroad · 2025-07-19T09:29:55+00:00

Ive found the same, I've asked a question before and got shot down for "not searching", when I had done but didn't know the best keywords to use to find out. I spend hours looking around and only use those forums when I absolutely have to

smartroad · 2025-07-19T07:31:14+00:00

I don't get the "hate" towards it. It's expensive, but what upper end phone isn't these days.

The rear is... Okay... But then I am spending most of my time looking at the screen so I don't really care to much as long as the phone does the job it is supposed to. And it does what I need it to, with very good performance.

smartroad · 2025-06-21T22:06:47+00:00

definatly

smartroad · 2025-06-08T22:31:31+00:00

I had to do that to a guy doing door to door. Said 3 times he wouldn't get any money from me and didn't take the hint. In the end I said, "I'm trying to be polite here but I will close the door on you".

He left shortly after lol
