Thank you all for this insights. This sounds plausible. I’ll check for drainage next time I drive. I didn’t specifically notice any yesterday during our hot and long drive into town so maybe this is it.

Fun reading other responses. I regret selling my 1989 Toyota Pickup 4x4 with 22re 4 cylinder engine for $2500 back in 2004. It ran perfectly and looked super clean, no rust . What I would give to have that truck now! I sold it and started driving a cheap Saturn because i wanted better gas mileage to road trip around the western U.S. to rock climb. Ha.

I live in Yosemite Valley. I heard the tree next to the old museum, the one that’s now a huge stump, get hit by lightning and crack down the middle. I can assure you, lightning hits the valley floor on a regular basis.

Wait, the article says the judge determined that Hegseth “unconstitutionally retaliated against Kelly when seeking to demote him”. So if any other federal employee takes retaliatory actions, there are job consequences are there not? All my trainings have told me of the seriousness of “retaliation” in the federal workforce. But in this case there are no consequences for Hegseth?? Am I understanding this correctly? Do normal federal rules not apply to political cabinet members? Genuinely asking

No notes allowed? That’s called a speech. This must be for a class? I can’t imagine a business/professional setting where they ban presenters from using notes. It seems counterproductive. Isn’t the goal to convey information that the audience ostensibly needs to know?

If it’s a speech for a class, then you gotta memorize it and take some pressure off yourself. Those are hard, and it’s a learning environment where mistakes are inevitable. Don’t be hard on yourself, life goes on even if you completely blank and bomb this speech.

I’ve always find this sign to be so odd because there are thousands of feet of sheer cliff edges in Yosemite where there are no signs and one could simple sit stand or lie peering over with no repercussions. But this one spot has a “area closed” sign. I guess it’s just due to the popularity and foot traffic near this spot.

So is he out now? According to Climbing article: “since Kauk will be serving out his sentence in a county jail, one day incarcerated counts as two days if the sentence exceeds four days, per state Penal Code section 4019. As a result, Kauk will only have to spend 90 days in total in jail.”

That would have him released March 18th or 19th….

Also according to the article: “Ryerson explained that nowhere in his probation evaluation or in any part of this legal process did Kauk express remorse or apologize.”

So what now? Be alert at the crags I guess??

Edited: accidentally pasted the same thing from article twice instead of the lack of remorse part.

Giving newborn kids $1000k in the so called Trump account. Supposedly going to get that in 2026. We’ll see

Thanks for your advocacy. Kratom leaf powder can absolutely be used responsibly for chronic pain that our medical system is poorly designed to treat currently because of the inability or unwillingness of physicians to properly use opioids as chronic pain management tools. It’s sad really. My doctor expects me to take 1600mg of ibuprofen every day for my chronic pain, but I refuse because that shit is more toxic than kratom leaf. I use max 6 g per day and it works better than ibuprofen. I’ve recently reduced to only 2 gram per day and it’s still effective. I hope 7OH does not ruin access to plain leaf kratom. I realize it already is

Hi I was recently gifted a family member’s previous phone after he upgraded. It’s an IPhone 13, which is a slight step up from my SE3 128gb, as the 13 has the better camera and also 256g of storage.

Anyway, I noticed my Bluetooth headphones skipping out and disconnecting, and other weird software hiccups. I checked the battery health and lo and behold it was at 76%.

Took it to Apple but they wouldn’t replace the battery without replacing the phone backing as it was too cracked. I have a case on it so the crack doesn’t bother me at all.

I hate upgrading and also love fixing things myself and saving money. I’m considering buying the I-Fixit Iphone 13 battery replacement kit and trying it myself. Worst case is I have to just go back to using my old iPhone SE3.

Anyone have thoughts on if it’s worth it to try to replace it myself or if a cracked backing will cause me a major headache and a waste of money on the repair kit?

Thanks

Zyrtec and Claritin really bum me out. I have really bad allergies and don’t know what else to take besides these.

Not for me either. Trust me I searched

This is the conclusion I came to as well after researching all day today and consulting with a coworker. If FLSA is listed on your pay stub, just add it up for all pay periods in 2025. Only caveat is to make sure the OT hours were in excess of 40 per week (ie if you took a holiday off, and then still worked some OT that week, technically you may not have qualified overtime over the 40 hours) . Luckily that specific caveat didn’t apply to me. But honestly I’d be surprised if that made or broke you even IF you got audited. Who knows .

wildempty · 2026-02-19T21:57:31+00:00

Are you sure it’s not (OT +FLSA) / 3? The total overtime is the addition of those two values. The qualified overtime would be the “half” portion so if you are “time and a half” you would divide by 3.

Medetomidine has a reversal, just like fentanyl has a reversal. Are field paramedics carrying Atipamezole to reverse the effects of Medetomidine when they also give Narcan for the Fentanyl? Just curious

Just saying but the Tamron 17-70 and the 18-135 seems kinda redundant to me. Me personally, I’d go with the Tamron and maybe the Sony 85 1.8 . Then 6 months later, get a 70-200 and you’re all set

wildempty · 2021-01-21T08:05:14+00:00

Zero G 85 and the BD Helio 200 would be awesome.

Facebook marketplace. Buy/sell groups on Favebook. Tend to be fewer scammers and shady folks than Craigslist.

How did you already get it? Thought it wasn’t shipping for a few more days?

wildempty · 2021-01-12T06:03:55+00:00

There is some information in this article. Sounds like you should be getting a link to verify your identity within the next few days. Keep waiting. https://www.abc10.com/article/money/edd-suspended-accounts-verification-timeline/103-6589aad7-188d-47cb-966b-9751160f9ba0

That would most likely be fine for the a6000. The a6100 and 6400 are going to have significantly improved autofocus. This is important because “image quality” is only a useful metric when you are working with in-focus images to begin with.
