He told me of the more than nine years he spent on meditative retreat, and of his frustrated search to receive the teachings for a very unusual form of Pho’wa (or forceful transference of consciousness) that would allow his mind to enter others’ bodies that he might better diagnose and heal them. Weeks elapsed and then during last night’s meditation a hack or work-around gently dawned on me. The brainstorm returned to me this morning, as I was setting up for my morning livestream. It felt like it demanded to be recorded as a Sadhana (or spiritual practice).
It was composed during the twenty-five minutes I thought I would prepare for class, and edited (rather slap dash) as I led the practice on line.
1) Open the practice by chanting the recitations of Bodhichitta, Refuge, as well as “Calling the Lama from Afar” and perform the five following exercises, sixteen rounds each.
2) Train in mindfulness and meditation by mounting the slogans “Notice this…” and “relaxing!” upon your respective inhalations and exhalations.
3) Contemplate the non-duality slogans “they and me…” “how NOT two?”.
4) Return to mindfulness and meditation.
5) Contemplate the love slogans “Profound health…” “now for ALL!”.
And 6) return again to mindfulness and meditation.
7) As your stamina builds, this cycle of exercises three through six
could be repeated for 2, 4, or even 8 sets.
8) Seal the practice by chanting the Four Immeasurables; repeat these eight steps every twelve hours and you could meditate like a Jedi

So, I got a 96 Ranger 2wd that started howling. NTB listened to it with their stethoscope for $60 and told me pinion bearings. I took it apart, and had a hard time seeing bad bearings. The guys at my local independent auto parts store agreed. I replaced the front pinion bearing (closest one to flange, right?), probably did the preload wrong cause I got a cheap torque wrench, measured the backlash, put it together, aaaaand it still howled around 15-20 mph. Replaced axle bearings, still howled. I decided to replace the rear pinion and ring gear bearings just to cover all my bases. When removing, the spider gears fell out, and I noticed a broken shim on one. New set ordered. Then my parts store guy (they remove and press on the pinion and ring gear bearings) called me to say he felt a strange wear pattern on the pinion gear and also suspected the shim under the pinion bearing was not spec.

1. Will a shop be able to machine the pinion gear or do I just order a new set (around 150 on rock auto)?
   
2. Does the new one come with the correct shim?
   
3. If I rent the $100 torque wrench from autozone to do the preload right, measure backlash on multiple gear teeth, and paint the gears to check contact pattern, what are my chances of doing this correctly?
   

I'm good with taking it to a shop to check my work when done. Do they do this? I'm happy to pay for their time. I really want to learn to do this myself.
TIA!

There is no well wishing available to you. Can you just screw off already?
You aren't allowed to act petty around me. It is because of you and your family that half of the girls in the system in the early 2000s were subjected to horrific conditions and exploitation. Stop acting like a victim when you are a clown.
Do you think I like seeing your smarmy face walk past me, squawking ableist nonsense from a safe distance away? You're a wimp and a follower. You only act tough when you think you're safe. You will always be a coward in my eyes.
And those are the nicest things I can think to say about you. Don't act like you have a leg to stand on when it comes to being angry, you self satisfied idiot. Nobody did anything to you but speak out about the actions your family undertook on underage girls.
Dont think for a second I want you talking to or about me, in person or in online spaces you think we share. It's bad enough you feel cocky enough to show yourself in person. Don't also subject me to your delusional faux-magnanimous narration like you aren't at fault. I find you revolting.
You and your hyper religious grandma can choke on the bible thumping horse shit you used to entrap your former foster sisters. You're a stereotype and a joke. You made no moves to make amends despite getting away with highly illegal stuff. And now you think you're the aggrieved party-even going so far as to arrange incidental run ins with where you can talk crap? The balls on you.
If justice existed, you'd be seen for all the horrible crap you did and held accountable for it IRL rather than CONTINUING to carry on terrorizing the survivors of your grandma's religious bigotry.
You must have run out of cats to torture huh. Stay the hell away from me.

I couldn’t find a straight answer. Is the current bonus supposed to be increased chance at XL candy when transferring? Or increased number of candy? I’ve done a bunch of transfers and it didn’t seem like I had increased chances, and just got 1 xl candy when I did get it.

ETA: Okay I just found a post here on nashville which clarified that I shouldn't face any big consequences (the comment from the user "freemytree" made me feel better, I'm not sure how to tag that user to thank them though because I'm very much a Reddit newb), but I would still like to know what will happen in the ticket situation.... Thank you to anyone who may be able to help!!

Soooo I may be massively overthinking this but I am a champion-level overthinker so that's normal for me. If I'm not overthinking it though, I'm super worried that I made a huge mistake.
I got my registration renewal notice prior to my license plate (the original old white and green one) expiring in October, but I really did not want to get the new standard TN plate (the dark blue one) because I wanted to get a specialty plate instead. However, you have to go to the county clerk office in person if you want to get a new specialty tag which, between my work schedule + traveling a lot for work + being out of the country for a chunk of the winter, I did not have time to do until today (I know, I know - I could have forced a way to make time.... but I didn't and I can't go back and change that now).
Yesterday, I came back to my legally-parked car and was surprised to see a ticket - it was for having an expired registration. I was annoyed because I knew I was planning on going to get my new plate today, but I couldn't have known that a cop would see my plate and ticket me while I was at work the day before I was planning on (finally) getting a new plate.
So I went to get the plate today and I mentioned that I had been out of the country for a chunk and was sorry that I was so late getting the registration renewed. The gal who helped me was super understanding and handed me an affidavit to sign stating that I had not driven the car (it also said had not received any citations) since the registration expired as if that was totally fine - I told her that I had in fact driven the car but she just said "yeah it's fine, thanks for your honesty but it's all good, just sign this" and I honestly didn't know what to do at that point so I just didn't mention the ticket. Then she deactivated my old license plate number, I paid for the new license plate, and I left (absolutely panicking in my overthinker brain). I tried to pay the ticket online, but it wouldn't go through. I even called the ticket office people and they said it just isn't in the system yet and to try again next week.
My question is this - am I going to get into serious trouble if it becomes clear that I'm paying a ticket on what is now a deactivated license plate because I signed that form?? Or is it more likely that I will just pay the ticket and move on with my life and everything will be fine?
​
TL;DR - Didn't renew license plate after it expired because I wanted a specialty tag, got a ticket on my parked car yesterday for expired registration, got a new tag today and was made to sign a form saying I hadn't driven or received a citation on the car and was told it was fine even though I told the lady that I had driven it, now I'm worried that I'll get into serious trouble trying to pay the ticket on my now-deactivated old license plate.

EDIT: Some progress. It seems the Pixel was several months behind on both security and play system updates. Updating those has allowed me to progress through place where I was stuck previously, but now, once I select what data I want to transfer, it says copying data, then immediately fails to copy everything, and I can't seem to get it to actually copy. I've tried a couple different cables to no avail. New thoughts would be appreciated!
TL;DR: Trying to copy data from iPhone to Pixel 6a, keeps getting stuck preparing to copy data, tried a miriade of things to no avail, looking for suggestions if anyone's experienced something similar.
I'm not sure if anyone has a solution or thoughts to this, but I've already searched the subreddit history and haven't found anything helpful.
I'm helping someone set up their new 6a from their old iPhone SE 2, and every time I get to the "copy data" page, I get stuck. I plug the two phones in together, and it acknowledges they're connected but then when it gets to "preparing to copy" it just spins endlessly and makes no progress at all.
I've tried multiple different cables (both USB-C and A), and even factory reset both phones (then resetup the iPhone from an iCloud backup).
Obviously some data can transfer manually, but the key thing missing right now is that I have no other way to transfer their entire text message history, which is why I can't use the wireless transfer setup.
We've been working on this for the better part of 3 days and had no progress. Of course, when talking to Google support, their only suggestion is to call Apple to have them help, and obviously Apple (understandably) says to call Google, so that support loop is entirely unhelpful.
If anyone has anything to try that we maybe haven't tried yet or has dealt with something similar please let me know. I've loved Pixel for years, but for a first time user this is becoming a truly heinous experience.
Thanks for any help!

Platform(s): Probably PSP
Genre: Platformer, Adventure, or Puzzle. POSSIBLY A MINI-GAME OR INCLUDED DEMO.
Estimated year of release: 2005-2008 should be the time frame, I played it at similar times as frantix, gripshift, and death jr.
Graphics/art style:2.5d or isometric. Not 3d or pixel like.
Notable characters: You controlled an archaeologist/scientist/explorer (I think wearing light brown clothing). Major antagonist was, I think, a group of saber tooth cats. Or the
Notable gameplay mechanics: I recall having escape from the cats, by running and jumping over things. I never made it very far into the game. I think there may have been a puzzle element to it, but I can't recall.
Other details: I think it may have been part of a combo pack or a mini game that was included with another game. On this psp I also had Frantix, GripShift, Death Jr., and Maverick Hunter X. I've checked a psp game release list and don't think I saw it.

I have holdings in Ally and find that they were not mentioned in the original 8K or the supplemental 8K as a broker notified by Sorrento. With that in mind I transferred all holdings in Ally to Fidelity. It sounds like Fidelity is on the right track and there is an office on the north side of Columbus, Ohio, close to me.
I don't want to take any chances and will surely due my share supporting the BIG SQUEEZE.
Good luck to all longs!

So I'm still fairly new to bass, been playing for a little while and absolutely loving it, and I love my trbx504, think it's just wonderful.
I was thinking of picking up a cheap second bass to learn to do maintenance myself, and to modify and make my own, so was wondering about some solid bases (lol) to start off with where I can change pickups, maybe wiring, tuners, bridge, controls, etc and just build up to something fun and unique, and different than my 504? Might even end up changing the neck if I can find some affordable ones. Will also act as sort of a practice run for things like changing strings, doing a full setup on my own and all that kind of stuff, so then I'll feel more confident doing it on my nice, expensive (to me) main bass.
Was thinking a cheap passive pj (maybe just a p bass) to have a different option and set of pickups, give a bit of tonal variety, so I was looking into a full scale ibanez talman which I can get for around £200. There's also cheap Harley Benton basses that can go all the way down to like £95, and some east cost basses which are in the middle. Squier affinity series are also around that sort of price range I believe. If someone has any reason that a j bass might be better then I'll definitely take a look into some, but I really like that mids heavy bass tone that seems to be very common with p pickups. Think the talman is probably my first choice right now despite being on the more expensive side, I think they look great and ibanez is a big name so the quality should still be decent.
For pickups I really like the sound demos I've heard of the dimarzio model P's. Don't really know much about bridges or tuners, so that'll be fun to research but switching to something lightweight could be good just for playability.
Was also thinking maybe a 5 string? I listen to a fair bit of metal and heavy rock, and 5 strings just offers lower options without having to mess with the tuning on my yammie. Maybe even something short scale lime the TMB35.
If anyone has any ideas for additional mods that I haven't thought about I'd love to hear them? Or any mods you've done to your own bass that were/weren't worth it and why? Just seems like a fun little project that will end up with me having two nice, different basses.

How I launched a multi-million dollar company from my bedroom.
Unlike most courses, I do not discuss regurgitated strategies that should work “in theory” and “mindset.” Instead, we take it step by step and create a real-live dropshipping store that makes over $1,000 on its first full day of operation (profitable right from the get-go). I explain everything along the way and discuss how I plan to scale much higher from there!
THE biaheza dropshipping course FEATURES
The primary goal of this course is to assist beginners in creating a Shopify store and marketing it through TikTok ads. As Facebook ads became more stringent, expensive, and ineffective, many dropshippers quietly shifted to TikTok.
People have grown accustomed to longer shipping times as a result of the pandemic. When combined with how effective and profitable Tik Tok ads are right now, I honestly don’t think there has ever been a better time to get into dropshipping.
This is the most revealing piece of content I’ve ever released, as I even reveal some of my personal best-selling products.
My process for opening these stores is fairly consistent, which means you can use these exact steps to open your own.

I am the second owner of my Jeep and the previous owner had removed the spare tire carrier. I am prepping it to go back on and noticed the bottom of three attachment points is missing. The top two are lug studs...the bottom one is a lug bolt. Can anyone direct me to a part number? Or aftermarket option?
The local dealer says the whole bracket is one part number and couldn't help. I was wondering if the Dorman 610-350.1 or something similar would work?

I have a new lease as of September 2022 I have a 2022 ford f 150. I have been having problems with my door sensors, it causes my horn and lights to go off s if someone is breaking in. today they said they think the solution is a door latch. Which is on back order with no estimated time. They are going to remove the horn fuse so the alarm doesn’t have a horn but my horn still works while driving. Do I have to accept my vehicle back and drive it like this or can I keep my rental till it’s fixed it is a everyday issue disabling the horn only minimizes the noise not the lights. Please help

I have been confused for sometime about how expense ratios are charged with mutual fund or ETFS.

1. How vanguard VOO has an expense ratio of 0.03%. Is this an annual charge of 0.03% of my money in that fund? If so, when does the charge actually happen? Let's say I don't have my money in that VOO fund the entire year am I still charged the 0.03%, even though they only managed my money for half the time?
   
2. I have my 401k in the S&P 500 right now because the expense ratio is lower than a target date fund and I am young. But when I get older, 45-50 years of age, I want to move all my money from the S&P to the target date fund 2060. Let's say the expense ratio for that target date fund is 0.08% and I move $50,000 over. Will they instally charge me that 0.08% on the $50,000 or do they wait a year?
   
3. This is a side question to question 3. I really do have my 401k all in the S&P 500 due to low expense ratio fees. And plan on keeping it there till I am older and then moving it to the target date fund where it will lower my risk. Is this a good or bad move? Am I hurting my funds by not having it in the target date fund now? I really don't see why I would put it in the target date fund if the S&P has cheaper fees and gets similar or better returns than the target date fund.
   

Please give me some insight on how these Fund Expenses are charged to me when using them.
Thank you!

I'm running a concept for an FP&A tool on this subreddit and would love to hear your thoughts.
We use numerous data tools: for analysis - SQL, Python, Excel; for visualization - PowerBI, Tableau etc. Data is also stored in a variety of systems - financial, operational, and data warehouses. The current process, where the data, analysis and visualization work is split between these tools/systems, is inefficient and doesn't flow well.
Instead, I envision a single data workspace that makes it easy to connect to data (via a single connection) and analyze it in SQL, Python, or Excel (via a single interface), then share the results with your team as data apps or stories.
Any feedback would be appreciated.

I am in a situation where I could assume a 2.25% VA loan but the loan servicer is not allowing a second mortgage through them (or anyone else) to buy out the seller's principle. They have left me with the choice of either:

1. Taking a personal loan (unfeasible, since the principle buyout is 100k+)
2. Forgoing the assumption and taking a normal mortgage at current market rates.

Is there anything I'm missing here? I'd hate to pass up the opportunity to assume a mortgage at that rate, but it doesn't seem like they are leaving me any other choice.
My DTI is not the issue, since my spouse and I have a very decent combined income and zero debts. Our DTI even with the second mortgage should be well within a lender's appetite for risk.
Thanks!

Looking for advise on refinishing our kitchen table. It's had a lot of abuse mostly from our kids and I want to get a few more years out of it. I'm struggling to tell if this is actual laminate or veneer. I would like a "wood like" finish. If it's veneer I feel like I can just sand it and then re-stain and seal it. Laminate seems more tricky? Anyone use that chalk paint or liquid wood before? I watched a few videos of people using them but not sure how they last. I attached a link of the table.
