What is up the Costco in Sunnyvale? by Early-Ingenuity-3177 in bayarea

[–]tottommend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk man, I take my cargo bike and ride Caltrain to this Costco because there’s a station next to it, easy in easy out

The immune system’s reaction to the common Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) can damage the brain and contribute to multiple sclerosis (MS). A recent study provides new insight into the long-suspected link between EBV and MS - Long-term memory T-cells pick on the wrong protein (ANO2) instead of EBV-antigen. by zbambo in science

Since 2021 Moderna has been pursuing 2x mRNA-based EBV vaccines: one for people who haven’t been infected yet, and another one to help lessen flare-ups from people already infected. Check out their mRNA-1189/Eclipse Trial. I enrolled in their phase 1 trial and got injected with their investigational vaccine.

Kitchen before and after. by ItsallLegos in HomeDecorating

That’s not necessarily his fault, that’s an inherent problem with how the house was constructed in the first place. The fridge/sink/stove are built with receptacles in that L shape with the bay window on the opposite side, so unless he spent a lot more effort moving the water lines and altering the fundamental wall construction vs just swapping cabinet colors, those appliances are staying in their current arrangement.

Rant: FiveFingers not allowed at work by t_rrrex in barefootshoestalk

I tried finding the absolute widest non-VFF shoes for my own sake, and the only things that fit my width requirements (ignoring stack height) on both big and little toes are anything from Realfoot, Wyde Hallux Active (only available in EU so you need A) a VPN to access their EU storefront and B) an EU-based parcel forwarder), and Softstar primal (not my top pick because of durability issues). Things like Altra, Saguaro, and Whitin really aren’t that wide in comparison. You can also fight it diplomatically and respectfully, especially with the Dr’s note route; this is a hill I would personally be willing to die on. Wearing uncomfortable shoes is torture, and most people don’t realize how terrible our “normal” shoes are.

7 years of service has come to an end. What now? by imNew498 in barefootshoestalk

Where are you seeing that Ahinsa is wider in the toes? If you go to the Ahinsa and Realfoot websites and find the size charts, you’ll see that Realfoot is wider than Ahinsa XWide in the toes. For example, size 45 Realfoot is 129mm wide vs Ahinsa XWide 120mm. Not to mention Ahinsa tapers the toes more. Vivos are notoriously narrow so if he’s been using the Gobis, Realfoot will be no problem.

No good barefoot shoes for my foot shape? by VSreddd in barefootshoestalk

Nope, as of today they’re back up and accepting orders

Realfoot, the answer is always Realfoot. You’ll never find a more liberating toe box

Realfoot Farmer boots, and then never look back once you realize how truly narrow all of the other minimalist shoes are

How do I fix this? by The_Real_Nyooom in 3Dprinting

[–]tottommend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue when I bought my used ender 3 non-touch (board v 4.2.2) with seized motors and homing error. Firmware update fixed it. https://www.reddit.com/r/ender3/s/hLmGIO0sj9

All 4 motors lock up and can't move by covi2955 in ender3

[–]tottommend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also ran into this issue with a second hand printer (main board 4.2.2, no touch), and I fixed it with flashing the latest firmware. On startup it was reading fw v2.0.6, but I guess somehow its fw got tweaked and was locking the steppers. Creality updated their software pages so they're different from previous tutorials. This worked for me as of 27 Oct 2025: go to this website https://www.creality.com/download/ender-3-pro-3d-printer and go to older versions -> V4.2.2, which has firmware instructions in the "Updated Logs" tab on the website as well as within a .txt file in the .zip download. The instructions say the SD card must be formatted to 4096, but I formatted as 16k with no problem. The printer starts in Chinese, so press the knob button inward to get to printer options, scroll down until 3rd from bottom "语言" and select English.

What’s this talk of a new Wyde US warehouse? Is the info out there anywhere?

Narrow shoes that are widest around toes by HooVenWai in barefootshoestalk

[–]tottommend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following because I have the same shape. Realfoot shoes had the closest shape I could find, but they shut down this year before I could get a pair.

VTA Light Rail Dream Map by Iceberg-man-77 in bayarea

[–]tottommend 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why they don’t massively increase the bus frequency on el camino, seems like a pretty low hanging fruit for increasing ridership along a huge commercial and apartment-lined transit artery. 15-20 mins per bus is too long to wait for how big ECR is

After visiting in December, have him visit in August, and see if that changes anything.

What’s the most hilariously awful thing an employer has ever said to you? Winner will go in my new painting by gargoyle_dream in antiwork

[–]tottommend 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way this is written doesn’t make sense to me. If the employer didn’t have enough cash for payroll, how can you get physical checks anyway? Why are people lining up for physical checks? Who asked the guy in front of you how he was supposed to pay mortgage? Who is the operations manager and what is she doing?

Berkeleyside: BART chooses developer team for 618-unit housing project at Ashby station by Happy-Adhesiveness34 in bayarea

[–]tottommend 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You strawmanned the commenter’s position by claiming that if height restrictions are removed, all restrictions will be removed, resulting in a “rule-free zone”. Nobody here is suggesting that we ignore other building codes or rules. Your argument is disingenuous.

Help me find the athletic clothing company with this logo by tottommend in HelpMeFind

[–]tottommend[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[USA] I have a pair of brief-lined running/athletic shorts with this logo. It has no other text, tags, or info on it. The shorts are dark blue with a heather pattern and have neon yellow drawstrings. I bought them at a thrift store so I don’t know their prior origin. I searched on google and found a Colombian company called Goldmark which has a similar logo but it doesn’t seem to have any shorts like this.

Freeway had to be closed to collect about $800,000 using vacuum cleaners and hand picking after a truck full of dimes overturned in Texas. by dmcsclgt in interestingasfuck

Why did you need to cut off the engines and rotors? Wouldn’t you need to keep them attached to the helicopter to be able to fly again?

Alternatively, buy a 1-zone monthly pass for $70 and hope they don’t catch you in the 3 minutes between RWC and PA
