2023.06.04 09:31 SirKronan Should I trade in my 9th gen for $175 towards the new Air M1?
With current pricing on the education store, it looks like I can get the new iPad Air M1 for $375 for the 64GB model. I realize there's a whole "what to buy" thread, but I have never had much success getting answers in such threads before, and I did search to see if there was a post like this one both on Reddit and with google search before making this post.
Some more info: I like the 9th gen, but I don't like having to pack around an extra lightning cable when everything else I own uses type C charging (including my Asus laptop!). I also will likely eventually want the apple pencil functionality, although it looks like even my old 9th gen can use the older apple pencil. The slimmer bezels and lighter weight design would be nice for travel, and I can see myself doing a little lite editing with adobe apps on the road, which I believe the M1 processor would be excellent for.
Worth it? Thanks in advance for any opinions.
I use my 9th gen for netflix, etc. while traveling, so that wouldn't change much. Is the display quite a bit better? I find the 9th gen not very responsive, and not as bright or contrasty as OLED phone screens, which I would expect, of course. But if the Air is even just a little improvement over the 9th gen, that would be appreciated for video consumption on the go.
Second question: Will the 64GB be enough for a few netflix shows and some light editing on the road? I find it is enough for plenty of netflix downloads on my 9th gen, but I don't use it for much of anything else, other than the occasional sheet music display while playing piano/guitar. And that doesn't take much space. It appears to be a $150 upsell to get the 256GB version.
Again, thanks all in advance for any advice, opinions.

2023.06.04 09:29 nopalesyqueso Planning to buy my first bow
I am brand new to archery and my local archer store has a deal where I get a beginners bow and arrows + accessories + 4 tutorial classes for $199. The deal sounds good and all but my dilemma is I am not interested in buying a beginner bow where I will likely upgrade within x amount of time (sooner than later) and end up spending more to upgrade to a better one. My question is this, will it make a big difference if I (a total newbie) buy a higher end bow now that I know will last me rather than buying one I know will only serve me for a limited amount of time. I am planning on getting a recurve, if that matters at all.

2023.06.04 09:28 Squall_3 Cross Gen Bundle Question
Hi guys (and gals),
Super excited for the upcoming release for us peasants in two days time, and being as old fashioned as I am, I'm looking to buy a physical copy for my PS5.
I've noticed that the PS4 version box reads 'cross gen bundle', and that in some stores the price is cheaper than that of the PS5 version. Is there any difference between the two for a PS5 user? If I buy the PS4 version can I just upgrade it to the PS5 one via the PS store?
Thanks!

2023.06.04 09:27 s_s_b_m Looking for a specific episode
I don’t remember the food, just that when Skinner was in the kitchen, he said something like “I’ll just tell him I found it, he’ll never know the difference. But what if he does? I’ll just tell him I made it myself, he’ll never know the difference. But what if he does? I’ll just tell him I got it at the store, he’ll never know the difference. But what if he does? I’ll just tell him the truth, he’s a reasonable man.” I think it was the one that ended with “Cheers, and fuck you too.” (If that was a different episode I’d also appreciate if you can tell me which one that was in)

2023.06.04 09:25 SWMobileStorage SHIPPING CONTAINER TERMS TO KNOW
Shipping containers have become common in our modern world, from construction sites and ports to portable offices, modular buildings and more. However, for those unfamiliar, shipping container terminology and jargon can be confusing and overwhelming. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at some of the shipping container terminology you need to know to understand the language of shipping containers.
13 SHIPPING CONTAINER TERMS TO KNOW
Whether you’re a business owner looking to ship your products overseas or simply curious about how these massive steel boxes work, we’ve got you covered. This guide will give you the knowledge you need to navigate the world of shipping container terminology.
The standard shipping container is 8’ 6” tall, and the most common container sizes are 20 and 40 feet long. They’re created out of Corten steel, a type of weathering steel resistant to weather effects. Typical containers have double cargo doors on one end and an end frame on the other.
1. DOOR HEADER
A door header is an integral part of the container’s structure. It’s a horizontal beam that runs along the top of the cargo doors, adding support for the roof, distributing storage weight and strengthening the security of the doors to the container. For modified containers that add roll-up doors, the plate protects the roll-up door barrel.
2. DOOR GASKET
Seals called
gaskets are installed around the cargo doors to prevent moisture, dust, and other contaminants from entering the container’s storage space. These gaskets are lodged in channels and grooves around the perimeter of the door frame. They’re also a crucial part of the container’s wind and weather-tight qualities.
3. LOCK BOX
Here at Southwest Mobile Storage, we use a three-tiered system to make sure our containers offer vault-level security. Lock boxes are a critical security feature we install on shipping containers that prevent unauthorized access to stored materials.
When a padlock is enclosed in a steel lock box, it becomes much more difficult to successfully gain access inside a container. Moreover, potential thieves must use cutting or drilling, deterring criminals that don’t have the time or energy to deal with the challenge.
4. SLIDE BOLT
The second part of our container security system is our slide bolt. When closed, a heavy-duty puck lock can be attached to the circular spot inside the slid bolt frame, creating another layer of security to deter break-ins.
5. DOOR LOCKING HANDLE
Our container security system’s third step is the door-locking handle. The handles aid in opening and closing the doors and have the capability to lock in their final resting place, situated beneath the container locking tabs. The locking tabs are lockable with padlocks, thus providing a final seal for container security.
6. DOOR PANEL
The door panel of a container allows access to the inside of your container and holds the other components attached to the door, like locking bars. Each door is made of thick steel and can swing 270 degrees outward.
7. LOCKING BARS
The locking bars span the width of the container’s door opening and attach to the end frame on each side of the door. Handles located on the exterior of the container typically operate the locking bars, which rods or cables connect to.
The door-locking handles secure the locking bars in place, holding the doors securely closed and preventing them from opening during transportation. Two locking bars are standard in 20-foot containers, while larger 40-foot containers may have four or more.
8. FORKLIFT POCKETS
One of the biggest benefits of using a container for storage is that you can easily transport it. Containers can be
transported by forklifts using the two pockets on the bottom sides of the container. From here, they can be transported on-site or onto a truck bed for delivery to a location farther away.
9. CORNER CASTING
Corner castings serve an essential role in maintaining your container’s structure. These eight 3.0mm thick corner castings have some of the thickest steel on the container, allowing containers to be stacked and handled securely. You can stack a maximum of nine containers, but this limit may be lower depending on local conditions.
10. TOP SIDE RAIL
The top side rail of a container helps provide structure to the roof. That helps distribute weight evenly across the top of the container. It also ensures a level surface that prevents stacked containers from shifting during transportation.
11. SIDE PANEL
The corner posts, top rails, and bottom rails work together with container side panels to create a rigid frame that distributes weight. Corrugated side panels, which have distinctive ridges and grooves add strength and flexibility. These panels enclose the storage area and prevent stored materials from moving around when properly stored.
12. END FRAME
A container end frame is a structural component of a shipping container located at the end of the container. Thus, the rectangular frame made of steel provides stability to the back of the container.
13. BOTTOM RAILS
The bottom side rail performs a crucial function in holding up the rest of the container, acting as the primary load-bearing component of the container. It connects to the bottom corner castings to lock on to containers beneath.
SUMMARY
After this list, you should better understand shipping container terminology and how the different parts of a container work together to provide you with secure storage space. Moreover, knowing what container parts do can give you the confidence to undertake
repair projects or inspire you to
modify a container for a specific use.

2023.06.04 09:25 Steve44444444 NC 1.8 Spark Plugs?
Looking to do a spark plug change on my 2008 NC (it has the 1.8 liter engine). I looked in the manual and it said „L303-18-110“ as the correct part number, however the parts store said they „can't find anything with that number“. I then described the car, engine and plug, after which the employee ordered them. When I wanted to pick them up the next day, I saw that they were very similar (NGK 7164), but still the wrong ones, so I returned them. I did some research and found out that the „L303-18-110“ corresponds to the NGK 90813, anyone able to tell me if that's correct? Just don't want to order the wrong ones again and embarrass myself… Thanks!

2023.06.04 09:24 midasgoldentouch [Discussion] Runner-Up Read: Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse, Chapters 7-13
Hello my lovelies!
Welcome back to our second discussion of Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse. This week we're covering chapters 7-13. Here's a summary of what's happened now:
We jump back in with Serapio, who, 10 years after his mother's ritual, is finally headed to Tova. The intervening years have been hard for Serapio, between his father's neglect and his tutors' cruelty, but he is finally ready to achieve his destiny. Pilgrims have taken him from Obregi to Cuecola, and now Lord Balam has secured him passage to Tova in time for the Day of Convergence.
That morning, Serapio is already on board the ship when the crew arrives and begins to prepare for departure. No one bothers him, but Serapio enjoys the "almost company" as they prepare. Around midday, he hears raised voices and what seems to be a confrontation involving a few men, including Lord Balam. Serapio uses star pollen stored in a bag around his neck to communicate with a nearby crow and allow him to see through its eyes. Through the crow, Serapio sees the crew as they watch the argument between Lords Pech and Balam on the deck. He also sees a woman with radiating power that he recognizes is Teek before she whistles and breaks his connection to the crow, causing him to bleed in the process. Serapio is enamored with her and, as they push off, resolves to get to know the crew and captain during the upcoming journey.
We jump back in time to 8 years before the Day of Convergence. Serapio is fourteen, two years removed from his mother's ritual and death and more or less ignored by his father. One day, as Serapio sits on the terrace feeding and playing with his crows, his father brings a man who claims he will prepare him for his destiny. Serapio replies that he's already aware of his destiny, to be born a crow, and when pressed, reveals the nicknames other crows have given him, such as Grandfather Crow, Nightbringer, and Suneater.
The man confirms that Saaya had arranged for him and two others to train Serapio for his destiny - to become a god. The man hands Serapio a piece of wood and a chisel, explaining that he's going to teach him how to carve. He asks Seraipio a question; Serapio replies with a smart-aleck answer; and then the man strikes Serapio across the face. Before Serapio can call his crows to attack the man, he tells him that he'll hurt them too. The man grabs and strikes Serapio a few more times, telling him that he must become accustomed to pain in order to achieve his destiny, and that it's his responsibility to teach him how. Cowed, Serapio begins to cooperate with the man's questions and instructions. That night, before he leaves, the man tells Serapio he can call him Paadeh. Serapio eventually falls asleep holding the beginning of his first carving - a crow.
19 days before Convergence, Naranpa sits with the other priests during a long Conclave meeting at night. Well, all of the other priests except for Iktan, who Naranpa realized had sent someone in xir place and who slips into the room later during the meeting. Naranpa has spent most of the meeting wondering what Iktan could be doing instead of paying attention, which becomes clear when Haisan asks her if she wants to add anything and Naranpa has to ask him to repeat what he just said. Abah tries to take advantage of Naranpa's lapse in attention, suggesting that it would of course be due to the excitement of the assassination attempt that morning and that it was understandable. She suggests that maybe Eche, the dedicant generally regarded as Naranpa's chosen successor, could step in.
Naranpa refutes this and begins to talk about the assassination attempt plainly, hoping to convey her feelings that it stemmed from the mostly nonexistent relationship between the Celestial Tower and the Sky Made clans and their waning power. Naranpa also suspects that Eche is sleeping with Abah and so the two of them have joined forces together against her. Abah then suggests that perhaps Naranpa's reforms are too ambitious, which is why the assassin targeted her, and that she might be better off stepping down. Abah even goes so far as to suggest that the attempt might be related to Naranpa's family in Coyote Maw, particularly her younger brother. Naranpa bristles at these accusations, even going so far as to tell Abah to fuck off, before deciding that it would be better for her to leave rather than allowing Abah to bait her any further. Before she can leave, a servant arrives with the news that Yatliza, the matron of Carrion Crow, is dead.
This, understandably, makes everyone nervous, given the earlier assassination attempt. Naranpa ends the conclave and dismisses everyone except for the four priest and the servant who brought the news. Naranpa asks the servant to explain the circumstances behind the murder; the servant, confused, explains that Yatliza wasn't murdered, just found dead in her bed, before recounting everything she knew. Naranpa dismisses the servant as Haisan and Iktan begin to bicker about what to do next.
Yatliza's death has come at an inconvenient and some would say inauspicious time. The Celestial Tower has closed for the Shuttering, a 20 day period of fasting and penitence in preparation for the winter solstice and a ceremony welcoming the return of the sun afterwards. At the same time, Yatliza's death will leave one of the Sky Made clans without a matron until a new one is invested, which unbalances the Speaker Council that handles civil affairs in Tova and leaves Carrion Crow without a leader. It will look bad to have a funeral and anointing during the Shuttering, but waiting until after the Shuttering for the anointing will appear disrespectful and leaves the opportunity for other factions to take advantage of the power vacuum and imbalance. On top of all of this, although Yatliza has a daughter who would generally be expected to step in as the next matron it's possible the other council members might have objections.
Naranpa quickly makes up her mind, deciding that they will have a state funeral in four days as usual and that Yatliza's daughter will be anointed as the new matron of Carrion Crow shortly afterwards. They will request that the Sky Made clans come to them to plan everything, since they are shuttered, and if the Speakers Council feels someone else should be matron they can take it up with the Tower after the solstice. Naranpa gives everyone their tasks, mostly to get them out of her hair, and dismisses them before heading up to her rooms. She'll speak to the other clan matrons alone later that day.
Iktan catches up with Naranpa as she reaches her rooms. Naranpa worries about how Abah could know about Ochi (Denaochi), given how she had destroyed references to her past. Iktan explains that if someone went looking to dig up her secrets, it wouldn't be hard to find him. Xe also reassures Naranpa that while Abah did embarrass her during Conclave, she managed to recover well enough, although Abah still cannot be trusted. At this point, Naranpa spots a scratch on Iktan's neck, offering to heal it before she realizes and xe confirms that it came from a "moment of passion" - Iktan has a lover that is not her. Hurt and jealous, Naranpa insults Iktan and xe leaves.
We briefly step back in time one day, back to 20 days before the Day of Convergence. After a hard day of rowing, Xiala directs Callo to have the men land on a nearby cay where they'll rest for the night. She then goes off to see Patu, a sailor known for his cooking skills and habitual seasickness. Xiala is a bit concerned to find Patu sick, but he waves it off, saying it's just a cold and Callo vouched for him. He begins to plan a feast for the men using the very nice provisions Lord Balam stocked the ship with. Xiala leaves Patu to it and heads back to middle of the ship, wondering about the man from Obregi that has yet to emerge from the room. Lord Balam had described him as a kind of religious recluse, which doesn't endear him to Xiala at all. Still, she's willing to do the bare minimum and make sure he's at least seen to during the trip, but before she can talk to the man they land.
By the time Xiala gets off the ship, the men are well into the feast Patu has prepared. The food is good, the liquor is flowing, and everyone is having a good time. The men greet Xiala happily, chanting "Teek" a few times, which is a little unsettling, but Xiala brushes it off and joins the meal. After eating and a couple of drinks, Xiala addresses the crew to break the news about Lord Balam's requirement of reaching Tova in 20 days. A number of them worry, since making the timetable would require them to sail in open waters during a particular dangerous season. Oddly enough, Callo is the one who speaks in Xiala's favor, asserting that Xiala's Song will help smooth their passage. This isn't really how Xiala's powers actually work, more of a superstition around how they supposedly work, but she decides to lean into and play up her Teek heritage. The crew latches onto the idea, even chanting "Teek" over and over again in their enthusiasm, and making bold claims about reaching Tova in even less time. While Xiala is grateful that the crew is eager to sail the open waters to achieve their goal, she is a bit nervous that they all rallied behind Callo's support. She can't help but wonder what will happen in the future if she and Callo disagree on a decision.
Xiala speaks to Callo privately, directing him to cut off the alcohol soon and make preparations to leave tomorrow. Xiala usually sleeps on the ship while the crew is on land; although she's worried about the crew bonding in her absence, she decides to trust Callo in this instance. Before she can finish her instructions and head to the ship, Callo pales at something behind her, and the crew grows quiet.
We know that earlier that day, Serapio enjoyed just generally being around the crew as they left Cuecola. When they initially landed, he stayed on the ship but, after hearing the sounds of the crew and captain as they ate, Serapio decides to try to join them. So he covers his eyes, pulls his cowl up, and slowly makes his way to where everyone else. As the others see him appear, everyone stops. The (anachronistic) record scratches. You can hear a pin drop. Serapio says hello in stilted Cuecolan and smiles at everyone, until he remembers his teeth are red and stops smiling because that's probably not helping right now.
Xiala tries to be polite and respectful, hoping to lead by example, but the crew is definitely scared of him. Even when Callo gets a plate of food for Serapio, he stands back and holds it out as if he's afraid to get any closer. Frustrated, Xiala takes the food and Serapio back to the ship, reminding Callo to have the others ready to sail at dawn. Once on the ship, Xiala and Serapio get to know each other as Serapio tries a bunch of new foods, including a painful-to-read experience with eating fish. Serapio confirms that he can see somewhat, mostly shapes, shadows, light, and movement, relying on other senses for everything else (and the crows, though he doesn't mention that). Xiala confirms that she is Teek, and the both of them acknowledge the precariousness of the whole voyage, particularly in terms of Callo's popularity with the crew. As she gets ready to leave, Xiala tells Serapio to go outside tomorrow morning to let the crew see he was just a man like them, albeit with his eyes covered. She explains that she'll sleep on the ship and be there to protect him if a superstitious crew member decides to kill him that night. When Serapio asks who will protect her, Xiala replies that she's with her mother, the sea, and no one messes with her children.
We close with Serapio, 6 years before the Convergence. He's sitting at his workbench when a strange woman enters his room, admiring his carvings. She says that Paadeh sent for her, although she doesn't seem to know that Paadeh is dead, a fact Serapio isn't eager to share for some reason. The woman introduces herself as Eedi, the second tutor arranged to prepare Serapio for his destiny. Eedi is purposefully evasive, but she generally reveals that she's a former spearmaiden from Hokaia. This confuses Serapio a bit, since Carrior Crow is from Tova, but she reassures him that their influence is great and that some in Hokaia would like to see the Celestial Tower brought to heel as well.
Suddenly, Eedi asks Serapio if he would like to begin before striking him with her spear. She manages to hit him again before he blocks her strike, at which point she walks over to his shelf of carvings and knocks them all onto the ground. Panicking, Serapio tries to grab at Eedi and stop her but bumps into other things or gets knocked out of the way. Eedit keeps knocking carvings onto the floor, threatening to destroy his trunk and even break her bones. Serapio stops to think; it's clear he'll have to outsmart her rather than overpower her. When he puts his hand on the desk, he touches the divination mirror his mother used to use. Serapio uses the mirror to throw a shadow at Eedi, and then some of his carvings when she's distracted by that. He bumrushes Eedi, knocking her to the ground, then tries to attack her with the chisel but misses. Serapio then tries to rip out Eedi's eye, but she manages to knock him off of her before leaving in search of a healer.
Eedi eventually returns, asking Serapio how he knew how to use shadows like that. He replies that he doesn't know; it was just instinctual. Eedi tells him that her job is to train his body, in the way that Paadeh trained his mind. His third tutor, Powageh, will deal with his powers; until then, Eedi will teach him how to fight.
Discussion questions are listed below in the comments. As always, I ask that you don't discuss any content in the book beyond the endpoint for this week's discussion. If you want to talk about something later on in the book, please do so in the Marginalia post. The full schedule for Black Sun

2023.06.04 09:24 AshL0vesYou We need to criminalize clout chasing
This has seriously gotten entirely out of control and something needs to be done. We should have made it illegal when people started licking ice cream in the store but we just let it go. Now we literally have people breaking into homes, stealing vehicles, running into businesses to trash them, assaulting people in public, and far far worse. And while yes, most of the stuff these people are doing is already against the law, it’s not far enough. Until such time that you are arrested and forced to sit in front of a judge and jury, nobody is going to care. There needs to be real world consequences for this behavior or it will just continue to escalate.

2023.06.04 09:24 Specialist_Salt_2476 What will happen to my gift card if i put the code in the wrong region?
first let me clarify that i live in a country where we don't have Microsoft store suties for us so the only way to play games on Xbox is to buy them from other countries, so it is not that i am "an evil person who abuse cheaper price of poorer countries" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now i want to know what will happen if i accidently used the code in the wrong region for example i had a code for the usa and i used it while my xbox was set to the uk, will the code still work if i will now put it in the right country? Or will the code be unvalid besides no one actually getting something from it?

2023.06.04 09:23 _yeetbooii [MOBILE] [2016] An exact Minecraft copy
Hi, this is my first time posting so here we go. So, im not sure if anyone had this or even remembers this but basically, there was this exact minecraft copy on the google play store. Like i mean down to even being able to log into your microsoft account. The only difference was it had ads every 20-30mins. This game is from around 2016-2017/2018.
The way i got this game was by randomly finding it. Basically in 2016 i got gifted a kindle tablet for my bday. I remember really well that the first thing that i did was, go on the google play store and search for minecraft. I found it but it was £4.99 sadly. But right below it was another minecraft. i clicked on it and it had the exact same screenshots and everything. 8 year old me in 2016 didnt care and pressed the download button. I didnt expect nothing better than some weird minecraft copy.
So i launched the game up and it had the exact same menu as the official minecraft game. Even creating the worlds was the same. So i created a world and loaded in. Exact same textures, models and everything else. All that was different was the ads coming up every 20-30 mins which was acceptable.
Yeah so thats all the info i have for the game. If anyone remembers it or finds it, would be nice. It might have gotten taken down for copyright but i feel like they would have taken it down way earlier. Thanks for looking!

2023.06.04 09:23 Runzolf Are changing rooms in Nederlands rigidly separated?
Hi! I'm a newcomer in your country, I'm amazed by your liberal way of life and the overall environment. Still, yesterday I had a brief moment of cultural shock, when I was hunted down by a shopping assistant while I was helping my girlfriend choose her clothes at one of the main fast fashion stores.
She brought two assistants and unapologetically sent me away from the changing area, telling me not to dare come back. At first I thought of a person exchange, I'm the less menacing person you can see around (just 25 year old, 6')
In another department store, I politely asked to try my clothes on, and the assistant responded "NO you don't want to try these clothes, you would like to surely, but there are so many other changing rooms you could go to". I was still with my girlfriend, with mainly gender neutral clothes we both would try.
Lesson learned ok, but I thought that on these "progressive" stores the tendency was to make anything gender free, not segregate men out of some areas.

2023.06.04 09:22 badjames What plugs do you have in your apartment?
I have a few appliances and my PC/monitor I'm bringing that are all type C/F (two round holes) - from what I can find online, some apartments in Thailand have multiple socket types.
What's your house like?
Thanks!

2023.06.04 09:22 Timely-Start1799 Desperately need an outside perspective on an argument with my spouse.
Husband and I had an argument and I desperately need an outside perspective.
So my husband (26M) and I (25F) got into an argument today. We’ve been in a weird spot for a couple of days because he accused me of something wrongfully, and when I asked him for an apology he said he “didn’t owe me anything.” So I’ve been a little upset about that since then, and he’s been a little on edge too.
Anyway he got upset because I didn’t act happy and hug him when he got home tonight, even though a “quick trip to the store” took him three hours, and we’ve both been moody. It turned into this whole argument where I told him I’m tired of always having to ask for affection when he either rejects me or acts like it’s an inconvenience. Now sometimes he doesn’t do this, I’ll admit. But it’s enough to make me hesitant to ask. So I told him that I would continue to ask him for affection if he would sometimes take the initiative and do it without me asking. I guess that was the wrong way to put it because he started throwing a fit and getting really mad about that, saying I was putting rules and conditions on our relationship. He was really caught up on the word “if.” So I changed the wording. I asked him “will you please take initiative sometimes in showing affection?” But he said that even that was a “stipulation.” He got really upset and now he’s sleeping in another room.
I just…..don’t know what to do. I don’t know what I did wrong. I tried to tell him that it makes me feel bad when I have to constantly ask for affection and get rejected/made to feel like an annoyance, but it turned into this huge deal. I just don’t think he wants anything to change and that’s why he won’t meet me halfway on this. Almost like he doesn’t want to accept any responsibility, in case he fails to hold up his end.
I know this is all over the place and I’m sorry. He really got upset and I’m wondering if I’m asking too much. We’ve been together for just about 8 years now.
Tl;Dr my husband and I got into an argument where I asked him to please take initiative to show affection sometimes and he doesn’t want to agree.
