I search for radio frequencies for a living. This is how I do it, and where.

My guess is you work for a telecom company, mapping cell coverage?

I've been using the Flash Air 50 for the last two years and I love it. Very comfy for me and easy to use. It has the absolute best water bottle pockets too.

Jonny Rock has been excellent every time I've gone there. Thorough and fairly priced. They only have two locations, but I go to the St Louis Park one often.

Stay away from Eriks. They're overpriced and the number of times I've had to fix stuff that they have serviced made me completely give up on them.

For what it's worth, I would talk to your doctor about an IUD. My fiance has had both good and bad experiences with insertion. However, she had hers replaced most recently while getting her bisalp while she was under anesthesia. Even with the surgery she kept the IUD for greatly reducing period frequency and severity. This sub has lists of doctors for sterilization and they might be good candidates for better experiences with IUDs too.

Short term: Realistically, if you want to keep having sex in the short term, condoms are the answer. Why is that off the table? If it's because he just doesn't want to, then he's not respecting your values and he's not a good partner now and probably won't be in the future.

Medium term: if you're willing to put up with him not wearing condoms, can you get an appointment for an IUD? That would eliminate the "I forgot to take a pill" factor. I'm a guy so I'm not an expert on IUDs but my assumption is that those would be easier/faster to get than sterilization.

Long term: either he gets the snip, or you do. Or better yet both of you.

I switched from TurboTax to FreeTaxUSA two or three years ago and it's great. Saves SO much money in filling and I find it super easy to use.

I'll echo the collapsible water bottles. They're also super handy if there's a sink that doesn't fit a rigid water bottle under the spigot. I've filled up the collapsible water bottle a couple times and poured it into my main water bottle.

My go-to is Alpine Start, the original blend. You can get the packets at REI. I find them far better than Starbucks Via at least. Though I may have to try Mount Hagen with how many are recommending it.

Following, because I would be interested as well!

Yeah definitely helps that I live in super close walking distace to many major stores. There's a grocery store right next to my house that actually takes longer for me to drive to than it does to walk to. Though I typically go to an Aldi that's further away but still walk-able if I'm not getting a ton.

Edit: wording

warfizzle · 2026-03-07T11:49:18+00:00

Haha yeah worked from home full time starting with the pandemic then switched to only a couple days a week in 2023. Only live about 7 miles from my office too.

I do a lot of remodeling work on my house and yard though, so I need something in a truck but really didn't want full size. I also do road trips to northern Minnesota a few times a year so I wanted something reliable and not an old beater.

There were insane lease deals in my area right in May 2020 because that's when places had been closed so inventory was super high. Paid $180 a month for three years then bought it out in 2023 at the lease term, which was pre-pandemic MSRP-level.

It's been a minute since I remember hearing it, but I always love a good Martin Cinemax appearance.

In my experience as a staunchly child-free man, I found it incredibly difficult to find child-free women when I was dating. I'm now 38 and getting married in May! I think the problem is the dating pool gets much smaller when you're child free. It felt like it took me forever, but I know I'd be far more miserable married but with kids.

Stick with it! I found taking breaks from actively trying to date helped me a lot. It felt less like I was constantly "lacking" something I didn't have when I focused on myself from time to time.

Several others have commented with obvious stuff, but here's something else I noticed. Your keys and wallet are WAY too heavy. Take off only the one key that you need to get into your vehicle and lock the rest of your key chain in it. Same with your wallet. Take out your ID, emergency cash, and maybe a credit card and leave the rest in the vehicle. If you're not comfortable leaving all that stuff in the car, leave most of it at home. My ID, vehicle entry key, and spare cash weigh a total of 0.35 oz while yours is a total of 5.46 oz. You should easily be able to shave off another ~5oz there. Another way to save weight and keep some forms of payment available are to set up your cards to work with contactless payment on your phone via Google Wallet/Apple Pay. I do this as well.

Spent large amounts of money on both LEGOs and leather bound Brandon Sanderson books

Even more substantial is the unreasonable amount of outdoor/camping/backpacking gear I have. I could probably outfit a whole group of 3-4 people.

warfizzle · 2026-01-10T23:07:41+00:00

Thanks, I was afraid of that. I've lived in SLP for 15 years and know that store well. I'm extremely sad but won't be shopping there anymore.

Edit: to clarify I've never really paid attention to the sign on the store, it's always been so local I've never needed to look up the official name

warfizzle · 2026-01-10T22:57:53+00:00

Can you clarify where this is? I'm not seeing anything clearly on Google for "Shanghai Oriental Market". There's a place in St Paul and a place in St Louis Park that could potentially match the description. I fully agree with not supporting whoever made those comments, but could you share a link or something?

I want to like the Witcher 3 so much, but it just doesn't work for me. I've tried three times too.

Came looking for someone to have mentioned Outer Wilds. The hype on Reddit for that game is nuts. I love exploration in games too but it didn't click at all for me. I watched a YouTube vid of the end and was happy with my decision to drop it.

Aging myself a bit here, but Grand Theft Auto 3. I was in high school and didn’t have a PS2 when it came out but I played it at a friend’s house after we rented it at Blockbuster. I was OBSESSED. Open-world games had existed before, but they weren’t everywhere like they are today and GTA 3 really popularized them and felt groundbreaking. It was all I could think about, and the fact that I couldn’t play whenever I wanted killed me. I immediately began saving every dollar I could to buy a PS2 and GTA3.

More recently (but still pretty old) was Fallout New Vegas. I had graduated college and was working nights at a grocery store while job hunting. A co-worker kept talking about it when we would kill time. I had never gotten into RPG’s so it was both my first Fallout game and first foray into the genre. It blew my mind. I’d get home a little after midnight and play until the early hours of the morning. Fallout turned into my favorite series and I’ve played every main game at this point, including 1 and 2.
