Groups just got smaller after people got married. The friend groups became more intimate, so mingling around with dozens of people stopped being the thing. We still get to see most people at events though. Mission conferences and other weddings and stuff. Now our gatherings are like 20-30 people for birthdays for kids and stuff.

Yeah all the time. Every Thanksgiving, Christmas and new years between the ages of 14 and like 25 with our friends, cousins, acquaintances. Always someone's place, at least 20 teens +/- 3 years in my age, but the parties can get up to 100 people or more if they lined up. Our community of Slavic churches are huge tho. We'd take up the entire wedding hall on some events with 300+ teens your grade that we all knew fairly closely.

The only difference is that alcohol wasn't involved, and relationships were built for dating into marriage, not sex flings like the teen movies.

Thank you for all this information. One day when my ADHD forces me into a making myself a home server I'll remember this and keep it in mind. I've always wanted to store movies but these days just family pictures and stuff. Definitely don't have terabytes but I'm getting up 100s of gb.

You mean murdered?

I'm not in the know of having your own personal data centers so I have no idea. ... But how often is this necessary? Does accessing your own data on your hard drive require a scrub? I just have a 2tb on my home pc. Is the equivalent of a scrub like a disk clean up?

I thought about it but my power almost never goes out. And if it does it's barely a day and we try to make it fun with candles and a fire. I have wood burning stove and our power only goes out in the winter.

As for using the power at night my electrical utility provides me with 1 to 1 net metering. That's a better ratio than a battery. I just don't know what problem the battery will solve.

What's scrubbing for?

I don't think all of the mod features are included in the odyssey update. A ship is one thing, but sos2 looked like it added TONS of content that odyssey didn't cover.

After today you're closer to 2050 than your are to the year 2000.

Sand storms? Also heat is bad for panels

Have you met twins? Like seen them daily? Enough to know them even partially personally? There's more than enough differences in each to tell them apart.

Your fantasy would be 100% intentional.

 

Has anyone had a whiteish mass in their egg before? I looked online and some people said it's intestinal lining some said ovary parts. Not sure, but it looks too big to be the white strandy stuff.

 

Hey guys I got the bambu P1S a couple months ago because it was recommended. I'm super new to 3d printing. This is my first one. I'm not new to electronics or computers. I ran a few of the built in prints, a dinosaur puzzle and this scraping tool but both came out fuzzy and in poor build shape. What can cause this? Shaky table? Cold temps (the printer is in my insulated garage getting around 65 degrees at the moment inside)? Is the stock bed bad? The filament it came with bad?

Thanks for any advice.

 

Hey guys I am planning to do my own solar and am looking into some kits and prices. I was quoted $22k for a 7.4kw system but I'm thinking of doing a 12.7kw one myself without the bloat of a loan and contractor install.

The problem I'm currently having is trying to pair up a premium panel with Enphase microinverter. I see that REC is highly regarded as one of the best, but the REC 420 is only compatible with the IQ8X which together will run me over 14k for just the panels and inverters, let alone the rest of the infrastructure. But the REC 400 is compatible with the IQ8A.

Suntansolar has some pretty nice kits, one of which has the ZNshine 410's that run a little longer but I should have the space, as well as the Iq8a micros. But I'm not familiar with that brand.

Does anyone have experience with a good combo set of panels and inverters? I think generally the consensus has been that microinverters are the way to go.

 

I'm sorry for posting this here. There isn't a solar panel instance, nor did I see anything for electricians. I know there's been a lot of gripe with certain solar companies (solgen being in litigation, and others) but I didn't hear much about freedom forever, since they're new to Seattle area where I'm doing this. Reddit seems to hate this company. But the price seems alright. I'm paying $22k for 7.4kw but getting it down to 15k after the state stipend. Less than $3 a watt which I'm guessing is really good. I'm planning to pay it off in 2 or 3 years. Not the full 25 which will cost me so much more. Can anyone point me in the right direction and if I'm making the right decision?

 

I'm not sure what happened but my peach tree isn't getting leaves. The branches on the end are brittle but I did a little cut on the tree bark on the trunk and it was green under so I don't think she's dead. I'm not sure what may have caused this. I thought at first it was because she didn't get enough chill hours but we got over 1000 hours here in Seattle area.

 

Sorry if this the wrong place, I couldn't find an HTPC, home theater, techsupport, or equivalent instance to ask.

The gist is I want to add a TV to my master bedroom for my wife to just browse the web, and for my kids to have something to watch in the mornings while my wife gets out of bed. I have a main pc in my theater room for gaming, and an HTPC on projector for movies and stuff. I don't want to get a roku or any mainstream smart device, but I'm OK with getting something like a raspberry pi (never done this) to have an air mouse hooked up to the TV so my wife can browse the web, open YouTube, Netflix, steam books, Spotify, as well as access my pc library of content for viewing. Not for gaming. Everything I'm finding online is people connecting their pc to their TV and it's always for gaming. I don't need large processing, just enough to watch things, while connecting to my home computers.

Thank you.

 

First of all I want to thank you guys for helping me identify my eel. I haven't felt this kind of help in a small community anywhere else.

Now for the tetra's we had a dissappearing issue when we had a rainbow shark. We ended up getting rid of the shark and getting tetras till we had 20. Now we're down to 12. I currently have 3 swordtails, 2 loaches, a small brisslemouth pleco and a larger pleco that survived. Plus 2 eels, one that was answered here and another is a zigzag eel.

Am I having a problem with hiding spots? I know I don't have enough plants. I'm thinking of getting more moss and covering the area under the wood structure on the right.

Or are they getting sucked up the filter? I thought this but couldn't find any evidence in the filter system. Any advice would be fully appreciated.

Here's the pleco I'm questioning.

 

It looks kind of like a ropefish/reedfish but it's not as long.
