2024.05.15 14:00 aSeKsiMeEmaW Narc brother gaslighting elderly dad to convince him to hate me by isolation and lies to gain full future inheritance. Sad to see karma of toxic parents come full circle :/
I’m realizing my brother is narssatic and everything he’s doing to my dad he’s telling my dad I’ve done it. He says I stole money that was paid to a home health nurse after my dads stroke. Despite receipts my dad will side with my bro because he’s scary. My brother is now poa abd gets my dad’s full social security of nearly $4k a month but there is no food in the fridge and my brother leaves him home all day. Earlier this week I showed up unannounced gef with spaghetti my dad used two hands to shovel it down. I changed. His pee stained sheets. My dad was happy and Grateful we did exercises
My brother comes home o hoped we could talk to set up scheduled help and care for my dad from myself or someone else. My dad asked for peace my bro said he hates me and can’t give peace. He said he will file a restraining order and call the cops on me if I ever come again and my dads lawyer is ready to file it. I was shocked. I’ve been my dads biggest supporter. My brother withholds info and creates confusion between me and my dad.
. My dad’s doctor called APS when my brother stopped filling his meds and my dad got afib. The doctor called me after not being able to get ahold of my dad or bro for a tele ppointment I had been seeing issues on my dad’s Apple Watch for 2 months she connected it instantly to the meds.
My brother before filling the meds changed medical Poa to himself (my dad does whatever anyone says) then my brother told him to get a new pcp because me and the doctor lied and he’s been getting his meds and I gave him the afib from stress by calling him. My dad is now isolated from me and his doctor by my brother manipulating my dad and lawyer.
He’s killing my dad. My dads lawyer doesn’t care since my bro is poa when I call my dads lawyer he just tells my bro who escalates his mental abuse on me and my dad. M. My dad refused help from APS the report says my dad downplays the meds my brother is killing my dad if my dad dies first my mom will leave everything to my brother and he knows it and he will get away with it
There is nothing I can do. I’ve spoken to a ton of lawyers I feel sad and helpless but my dad never protected me from my mom and Bros abuse growing up. Had he done so and left her wouldn’t be in this mess. it’s sad and sick to watch a toxic family’s end cycle that’s all

2024.05.15 14:00 AutoModerator What Card Should I Get? Weekly Thread - Week of May 15, 2024
Welcome to the What Card Should I Get Weekly Thread, where we try to figure out what card you should get or critique your current plans or AOR if you're doing it that way). Everything is YMMV and these are all opinions. Agree or disagree with your votes. As always read the wiki, do your research, and happy churning.
Also, check out the Credit Card Recommendation Flowchart before posting in this thread.
submitted by AutoModerator to churning [link] [comments]
Also, check out the Credit Card Recommendation Flowchart before posting in this thread.
- The flowchart can answer 95% of all "What card should I get?" questions. By continuing to post, you must explain why you feel the flowchart does not answer your question. Asking for feedback ("The flowchart says I should get X - is that still the best choice?") is absolutely allowed.
- What is your credit score?
- What cards do you currently have or have you had in the past (including closed cards), along with dates of when you were approved for the cards? Please include month and year for any card approved in the last 3 years.
- How much natural spend can you put on a new card(s) in 3 months?
- Are you willing to MS, and if so, how much in 3 months? See this page for a primer on MS. Plastiq (for rent/mortgage/loan payments) and bank account funding are often good options for beginners.
- Are you open to applying for business cards? If not, why? See this post and this wiki question to learn more.
- How many new cards are you interested in getting? Are you interested in getting into churning regularly (if you aren't already)? Or are you just looking to get a new card(s) for now but not get into churning long-term?
- Are you targeting points, Companion Passes, hotel or airline statuses, First Class, Biz, Economy seating(s) or cash back?
- What point/miles do you currently have?
- What is the airport you're flying out of?
- Where would you like to go? (The more specific you are, the better someone can recommend the right card. Tokyo is great, "International travel" is way too vague)

2024.05.15 14:00 natriusaut Old one broke. Europe, <400 Euro, used. WiiM Amp as alternative?
Hello, im in europe and the budget would be max 400 Euro.
I have a TV, a switch to get audio from, a CD-Player, audio via buetooth from smartphone and seldom i might plugin something (mp3 player) with an cable. Mainly it will be TV and Audio via Bluetooth (Spotify probably). Its currently set up as Stero 2.0, but i have 2 small rear speakers as well.
Used. I looked already at some, but i have no clue unfortunately.
Somewhere else i got the WiiM Amp suggested to buy new instead of an used amplifier.
Hope to get your input!

2024.05.15 14:00 King_Dinosaur_1955 60 Years Ago Today: "The Brain Center At Whipple's" premiered
 | [Swipe left for more photos] submitted by King_Dinosaur_1955 to TwilightZone [link] [comments] (See photos #1 and #2) What was happening with computers and automation around the time this episode originally aired: In 1960 a science technology TV program aired an episode titled "The Thinking Machine". Here's a 3-minute video excerpt from the hour-long program The science technology episode of 'Tomorrow', coordinated with M.I.T., aired on CBS in early 1961. The full show can be viewed on YouTube for free running 53-minutes From Forbes magazine July 18, 2019: By 1958, the nation had entered the “Automation Depression” in which “we are stumbling blindly into the automation era with no concept or plan to reconcile the need of workers for income and the need of business for cost-cutting and worker-displacing innovations.” Four years later, President Kennedy was asked in a news conference “Mr. President, our Labor Department estimates that approximately 1.8 million persons holding jobs are replaced every year by machines. How urgent do you view this problem–automation?” Kennedy’s response? That “it is a fact that we have to find, over a ten-year period, 25,000 new jobs every week to take care of those who are displaced by machines, and those who are coming into the labor market … in particular industries we might get special structural unemployment. We have seen that in steel, we have seen it in coal, we may see it in other industries … I regard it as the major domestic challenge, really, of the ‘60s, to maintain full employment at a time when automation, of course, is replacing men.” Richard Deacon was born May, 14, 1921 in Philadelphia. When he was 11, he was afflicted with polio and later took up dancing to help strengthen his legs. In his teens, the Deacon family moved to Binghamton, New York. Richard Deacon was actually a classmate of Rod Serling. Largely due to his early polio scare, Deacon became an intern during high school at Binghamton General Hospital and later served in the Army Medical Corps during World War II. Richard Deacon added to the revised opening sequence of "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers" 1956 2-minute YouTube clip [Note: the distribution studio executives wanted to add the prologue and epilogue to the completed film to make it comforting and hopeful for audiences.] (See photo #3) Richard Deacon was typecast as a middle management authority who rarely received respect from either end of the employment spectrum. Two words that adequately describes the frequent acting persona: prissy milksop. Deacon's two longest and most notable TV roles – as Lumpy’s dad on “Leave It to Beaver” (1951-1963) and Mel Cooley on “The Dick Van Dyke” show (1961-66) – overlapped by two years. (See photo #4) In the 1970s, Richard Deacon was touted as a notable gourmet chef and wrote one of the first recipe books for cooking with a microwave oven. Richard Deacon died of cardiovascular disease on August 8, 1984, at age 62. His remains were cremated and the ashes scattered at sea.

A big, brawny villain of many 1940s and 1950s films, Ted de Corsia was an actor in touring companies and on radio before making a memorable film debut as the killer in The Lady from Shanghai (1947). Although he occasionally played such sympathetic roles as a judge or prison warden, de Corsia's imposing size, tough New York street demeanor - he was born and raised in Brooklyn - and gravelly voice assured him steady work playing murderous street thugs, outlaw gang leaders or organized-crime bosses. Ted de Corsia also appeared in The Twilight Zone episode "The Sixteen-Millimeter Shrine" with Ida Lupino. Ted de Corsia died of a cerebral thrombosis following a two-week hospitalization at West Valley Community Hospital on April 11, 1973 in Encino, California.

2024.05.15 13:59 imm3500 Question on Facebook Ads and Gaining Followers as Direct Result of those ads
I recently created a Facebook group. I am trying to gain traction and increase my follower count. I post new content daily and am also cross posting respectfully on other related Facebook groups. I get a lot of organic views and positive engagements. But the follower count remains stagnant, which is very frustrating.
Here are my questions:
Thanks for your help!
submitted by imm3500 to facebook [link] [comments]
Here are my questions:
- Are the Facebook ads worth it in terms increasing follower count?
- Are the followers gained through the ads used towards the monetization criteria?
- As an example , if before the ads I had 100 followers and after the ads, I yielded an extra 1000 followers, does the extra 1000 followers count toward getting monetized?
- Does monetization only apply to followers gained organically (non-paid)?
Thanks for your help!
2024.05.15 13:59 Jerry_Attric8 Gaming / Game design / Music production PC
Brand new
- Is this a brand new build, or an upgrade to an existing build?
N/A
- Please list any existing parts or monitor(s) you have that you would like to re-use with this build. For upgrades, a PCPartPicker list of your full build is extremely helpful. Be as specific as you can be here, including links or exact model numbers of each component whenever possible.
Primarily single/multiplayer gaming (modded Minecraft, Star Citizen, GTA6 eventually). Also will be using this for studying game design so lots of coding and all that entails. Also would like to use it for music production (like Ableton). The prettier the games can look and run smoothly, the better! I would not be running several programs at the same time, I'm not much of a multi-tasker
- What will this PC be used for? Examples include things like gaming, general/multimedia use, photo/video editing, coding, AI/ML, etc. Include specific games and applications you intend to run, and any particular performance goals you have, as each may have different specific hardware needs.
US, I live near a Micro Center
- What country will you be purchasing in? If you are in the US, do you live near a Micro Center? For other countries, please check if your country is supported by PCPartPicker by using the country selector dropdown on the top right - if not, please provide some links to reliable local vendors you are comfortable ordering from.
2 monitors, 24-28" works for me, not super picky as long as they look nice!
- Do you need one or more monitors included in the budget? Please list how many and any size/resolution/refresh rate preferences if needed.
Preferred is $4-5k, max is $6k
- What is your preferred and maximum budget range for this build, in local currency? Parts lists may sometimes have additional shipping costs. Please note whether prices in your country include sales tax or not, and adjust your budget accordingly. Typically VAT countries will have it included in the part list prices, whereas regular sales tax countries like the US and Canada will not.
I'll need WiFi
- Do you need WiFi, or do you have a wired ethernet connection available?
I'd prefer it not be too loud so it wouldn't interfere with music recording, but I can also work around the noise in other ways
- Do you have any specific size or noise requirements for the build?
I prefer dark greens / browns / black, not a huge fan of RGB for my aesthetic
- Do you have any aesthetic preferences for color or lighting? Describe what you're looking for, or feel free to provide some links to examples that may help. Some people prefer an inobtrusive stealth build, while others may prefer a case full of rainbow RGB.
Not sure if allowed, but any desk recommendations are welcome! Thanks!
- Any other specific requests or requirements? Examples might include a specific minimum amount of storage, or a particular CPU socket for a future upgrade path, etc.

2024.05.15 13:59 SonicSpecs PSA: Does not pair - It's not the magnets
 | PSA: Apple Pencil Pro will not pair or charge using my iPad Pro 11" Gen 3 (M1) - but not really because of the magnets submitted by SonicSpecs to ipad [link] [comments] I knew it was not sold as compatible, but wanted to be sure. Apparently the magnets in the new Apple Pencil Pro are 5mm further apart (!!!), but remain in almost the same position - a conscious design decision..? This means that on my M1 iPad Pro I can get the pencil to securely lock on with just one magnet at a time (does rotate though) - or if I shift it just a few mm it holds okayish in the same location as the Pencil 2 From the pictures I've seen of the new iPads the charging coil location is still in the same placez For connecting the new Pencil still uses Bluetooth, and as the USB-C Pencil is compatible with new iPads there is also no new display hardware. ... but there is no animation or popup when attaching it :) If we have an objective look at these facts, it seems weird how Apple was not capable of somehow making the new and old Pencils compatible enough for being able to pair them across the generations. This leads me to believe that it must have been on purpose. I wonder how they would respond to Mother Earth lol THANKS FOR MAKING YOUR INTENTS OBVIOUS APPLE I will update my iPad to see if that changes anything, but I expect it to be software locked by Apple |

2024.05.15 13:57 Famous-Pepper5165 Is GDP PPP a good metric?
People like to point out that GDP, in nominal terms, is not a good way of comparing economies, and GDP PPP is better at taking into account price differences.
People give the Haircut example: How a haircut in India costs way less than a haircut in Denmark, even though the end product is the same: a new hairstyle.
But I see a flaw in this analogy. Within the SAME country, there may exist 2 different Hair Saloons who do the job for very different prices: One which does the job in some back-alley in a shack, and the other in a premium mall with good airconditioning and bg music and stuff.
When calculating GDP, it would be reasonable to expect that the premium saloon would add more to the bottom line of a country's GDP, BUT WAIT, for the purpose of this comparison, doesn’t the hair saloon in Denmark get to call itself a "premium" saloon by virtue of the fact that the society that encloses it is a developed one, and how the customers get to breathe clean air while being worked on, how they have functioning legal recourse if the barber ends up hurting them, and how they can be assured that the employees of the establishment are being paid a decent wage, and kinda also the fact that Denmark is, on average, a more desirable place to live in than India, and the customers of the Danish Saloon are virtually paying the extra costs as a kind of fee for getting to live in such a desirable place to live. The saloons in India, on the other hand, provide them with none of that. This "extra" value being provided to the customer is a very tangible good, but proponents of GDP PPP ignore all this and apparently equate the value of the product - a "Haircut" - being produced in either economy because, according to them, at the end of the day, it's the same old "Haircut".
What do you think about this? Is GDP PPP an honest metric or does it just expand to Please Pretend we're not Poor.

2024.05.15 13:57 CaptainSchazu You wanted the explosion so 👏 write 👏 it 👏 out
I roleplay with this partner for more than 2 years now and we generally have lots of fun, the replies are short, dynamic, we have a whole array of characters and pairings, constantly come up with new ideas, we are close ooc despite being on two different continents...
BUT
No matter how subtly or how directly I tell them that they can and should take initiative in the rp, especially when a plot was their idea, it just doesn't stick. What made me write this post is a scene in which their character has a vision of what's about to happen, we discussed it prior, and agreed that this is their storyline. (We will be doing my idea after that with which I will have no problem to lead.) We are at least 3 replies in where they could have already thrown in that damn explosion! but it's simply not happening, and I just know that if I don't do it, it won't happen.
I will shake those two morons of characters (lovingly) with the whole ship in the grandest explosion of all time but... yeah. Would be nice to for once not have to pull everything by myself.
It's even more jarring ever since I found new rp partners lately who are extremely active in the story-pushing, imaginative, and the work feels 50:50.
I still love this partner with all my heart, our stories, and our characters but I needed to finally let it out somewhere.

2024.05.15 13:56 FirstSonofLight Tree supports keep leaving my prints rough
Any tips on how to fix this?
I am using the A5M and am on the most recent build of orca.
I've dropped the support top interface layers from 2 to 0 and that has helped some but they are still rough.
I am new to Orca and FlashForge, coming from Cura and an Ender 3 and I just want to say the tree supports that Orca sets up are insane compared to the supports Cura made.
Thanks for any help.

2024.05.15 13:56 kclv702 Total loss of words.
So my wife’s Tahoe was towed from out front of our business when we were out of town “private property” we get back and I call the tow company that has signs on property “ nothing about overnight parking on the signs “ they have it but can’t help us till Monday. Well we both have work Monday with clients. So Tuesday we get everything done and drive clear to the north side of town “ I live in north green valley “. $850 big ones because they had to tow it 20 miles and $52 a day storage fees. Wow, well guess good thing I had enough cash on the 2 of us now you think man that’s shitty well guess what there’s more. I’m feeding one of my pet lizards and I hear my wife’s Tahoe start up “ it has flowmasters it’s not quiet “ I look out the window and it’s driving away. She’s in the kitchen doing dishes I grab my truck keys run outside jump in my truck and hall ass after it, I get to the front gate it’s closed enough I can’t get through I’m waiting and watching the Tahoe drive down the street. I get out on the street as he’s pulling in to the gas station to meet his buddy driving a small Nissan suv with a small landscaping trailer on the back with some trash in the back. They see my truck and the Tahoe splits again he runs a red light I have to wait for two cars to pass I run the red light. I can still barely see him and the road curves to the right and I loose sight.
Now at this point my wife is hysterical standing in the street with one of the neighbors and the cops I write a statement and give descriptions of the vehicles and calm her down. Cops are going to gas station to get video, I’m going looking for the Tahoe.
1 hour later the last apartment complex I was going to drive through before I went home and let the cops or my insurance company figure it out. I tried 3 different gates no one coming or going BUST we as I’m just about to go someone pulls up to the gate and opens it. Driving up and down all these parking areas and all the sudden in the far back about 100 yards from where they stole it the Tahoe parked crooked and about an inch away from somebody’s brand new car. My wife calls the cops I jump out to see if the culprit is in the car or the area and the dispatcher needs our address we have no clue less than 5 seconds she gives us an address and cross streets than says can you see building 11 it should be right next to you. Well it was she had my location from my wife’s cell phone in no time and then the same office that took the report pulled up. Found a screwdriver in the front seat they are sending off for fingerprints….. lol
But what the actual F 1 my gut my wife’s gut and everybody including the cop and his partner think it all sounds suspicious and the tow company might be up to something.
2 all of this and there is nothing we can do other than pay to get our vehicle out of the tow yard and spend more money to fix what they broke and then hopefully make it so they can’t come take it again.
Any advice in this matter would be greatly appreciated but felt I had to share. Leaving names out for now due to ongoing investigation. But also please give your opinions 38 years in this town and this is was my wildest by far.
