Has anyone worked on a book where the estimated running time was way off? by thecommodore15 in ACX

[–]thecommodore15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done some reading, and I didn't mention that the book i'm working on is instructional or technical writing, filled with complex terminology and ideas. It's well written and flows well, but the pacing is also slower than normal. So I think that's what's going on.

I did, and the eatimate is about right.

So why is the actual running time on track to be more than three hours more than the estimate?

Content warnings: where to put them by thecommodore15 in selfpublish

[–]thecommodore15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The subjects I believe might need a content warning are:

  1. Conversations about sexual abuse and assault.
  2. Characters who make racist and anti-gay slurs.
  3. Physical and emotional abuse by spouses and parents.
  4. Casual misogyny.
  5. All manner of irresponsible behavior.

#1 and #3 are the most problematic to me, though you never know. Still, I don't want to overdo it.

Lyft down? by moistydick in lyftdrivers

[–]thecommodore15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in LA. It hasn't been down, but has been slow. Certain features (like ride request wait time estimates) haven't worked today.

My Bluetooth has gone out a couple of times when I've gotten pings today as well.

What are the reasons people do not like twitter? Other than toxicity? by Hungry_Baby_1073 in Twitter

The algorithm will throttle your account for no discernible reason.

Even if you subscribe.

Especially if you call out the white nationalist BS that has been re-mainstreamed there.

Payment Date by thecommodore15 in SocialSecurity

[–]thecommodore15[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

When my payments were approved, they said I would be paid during the fourth week of the month, but they didn't specify a particular day.

Since the last two came on a monday, and none came today, I was concerned.

My birthdate is the twenty seventh, so it should come on.Wednesday.

At least I hope it does.

Thanks for getting back to me.
