2023.06.08 21:35 Sanik_Papu Knocking Noise on 1985 22RE

Hi. I have a 1985 Celica GT-S Coupe (Not sure if that matters) that I recently bought and been trying to get to run. I finally got it to turn on but it has a very loud knocking noise. It still turns on and idles quietly and the knocking only starts when it goes up in rpms. I redid my head cover gasket and I also have done injectors, new spark plugs, cables, vacuum lines, cap and rotor, EGR delete kit. thermostat and just replaced most of the parts. but i cant figure out the knocking. There is also a few flakes in the oil. but I've been told a very small amount is normal in engine wear. some people say it just needs a valve adjustment, others say it needs a hear rebuild and other say the engine is toast. I can provide videos and images if needed. thank you.

2023.06.08 21:35 foshiggityshiggity 2016 audi q5 brakes wont stop squealing

Had a brake job done a few months ago at an independent shop with aftermarke4 parts. Cost 2400 with all power stop parts (rotors and pads) constant squealing so they replaced the pad brackets that they said were not working properly. Didnt solve the issue so they replaced everything with centric parts. Still squealing but mostly from the rear so they put audi pads on with new rotors again. They are at a loss at this point and offered to do it again with audi parts if i pay for the difference in parts cost over the ones i bought. Any other ideas before i drop another 1000 into this POS? (2016 2.0t)

2023.06.08 21:34 GloomyClaire 19F, close to ending it all.

So fucking tired of living in a country that doesn't care if it's people live or die. Can't get surgery, can't find a psychiatrist that will work with my insurance and provide me with brain numbing drugs. Genuinely what do they want me to do? Off myself? Would probably be cheaper for everyone in the long run anyways. I am so fucking frustrated. I can't afford to pay a psychiatrist $500 a week out of pocket and surgery isn't happening anytime soon. Death is the only option. have been fighting with my insurance for a year and I have twice the required letters from mental health professionals but none of that matters. No one cares that I'm living in a body that causes me physical pain and discomfort to the point of making me consider ending it all. I have been this fucking close to offing myself since November and I don't know what to do anymore. It seems like the only option for me to find peace. Ever single day since l've grasped the concept of sex and gender I have wanted to die because my body is different from other women. So fucking close to pumping my body full of drugs and hoping I never wake up. I am in so much pain, so fucking much that I can't even describe it in words. I am so fucking close to just preforming a penectomy on myself and forcing the ER doctors to complete the job before I bleed out. But honestly, maybe bleeding out is the right option in my case. Fuck the healthcare system, who the fuck has $35-$80k just lying around for reconstructive surgery. I really don't know what to do anymore and I don't see a future for myself if I have to live any longer with my current configuration. I might turn myself into a fucking statistic but atleast I'll prove a point. The American healthcare system is killing all of us unless you have elite insurance or are rich, especially trans people. So done, just so fucking done. No one is going to hear from me in the near future, and the’ll all know why, they’ll know the healthcare system failed a 19 year old girl who desperately seeked out life saving surgery and has spent the past year in intensive therapy programs. All I do all day is just rot in bed and wait for better days. But those better days will never come. I won’t last for another year without this surgery. I won’t. I refuse to. They can either provide me with life saving surgery or my life will just be over and my body will be buried deep in the ground or cremated and shoved in some urn. It’s all I fantasize about all fucking day. I can’t get into a car or any form of transport anymore without wishing and begging that I’ll end up in some horrific accident. This is what it's like to have your teenage and young adult years ripped away from you because you can't cope with living in a body with a male gender marker. All of the progress l've made in my transition, the years of hormone replacement therapy, the orchiectomy, completely living socially as a female, it all means nothing aslong as I've got this fucking tumor between my legs. I am ready to be out of this planet and society if I can't get this done. I can only tuck and distract myself for so long. There is nothing I can do to improve my situation, I just need to accept my fate and do what should've been done so long ago. I can't pee, I can't shower, I wear the same clothes for a week straight to avoid my parts as much as possible. I am fucking tired and it's over, it's all over for me. Genuinely, what the fuck am I supposed do? How am I supposed to stop fantasizing about being taken out of this world and becoming a cold, stiff, rotting corpse. It's all I want, all I dream about during the rare occurrences I do dream. I need a fucking lobotomy, I need my brain turned to mush so I can't think anymore. Or maybe extreme electroshock therapy to destroy my brain.

2023.06.08 21:33 kodifies django admin not working on production

bare with me .... info dump!
i'm pushing up to my vps with git, development runs localhost:8000/ as normal
on my vps I have the main django site running on mydomain/django/ using proxypass (apache) to forward to http://localhost:8000 (apache is the ssl endpoint) proxying to uvicorn via http
proxypass has two exceptions for /static and /media with apache serving them from the vps repo
so far with a few checks of DEBUG in settings the main site with multiple apps is working identically locally with manage runserver and on my vps with uvicorn
however when I try the admin site the ?next=/admin not ?next=/django/admin and I cant get logged in even if I modify the url so next is correct
I'm almost certain I have cruft left over in various settings as I have tried so many things
here is part of the apache config
 RewriteEngine On ProxyRequests off Alias "/media" "/home/chris/repositories/brcdjango/xxx/media"  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted  Alias "/django/static" "/home/chris/repositories/brcdjango/xxx/static"  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted   ProxyPass http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8000/ ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain localhost xxx.co.uk   ProxyPass "!"  
and various bits of my settings.py

i have replaced my actual domain name with xxx....
if anyone has any insights I'd *really* appreciate it!

2023.06.08 21:31 herefortime 03 Sedan - what suspension parts should I replace on a twenty year old car?

I’ve read that new bushings will help with ride quality. This car has the 17’ sport wheels and I’m told that included upgraded sway bars? The ride is very firm, which I like, but it can be very harsh for passengers over the smallest bump. Looking to soften it up a bit. Anything to look at besides bushings?
Thanks guys!

2023.06.08 21:28 Oradainer Celestial Empire - Chapter 3

First, Previous, Next

Victor sat at his kitchen table and stared at the tablet in his hand as he blew on his morning coffee. It had been a busy week, setting up areas for construction with enough room for the nano-forge, then using it to build auto-factories to build more mining drones and more forge spiders to gather more resources and clear out more areas.
Thus far he had Ingot Storage 1 complete and the forge spiders pathed to bring back and sort them. Then Hydroponics 1 was complete, the auto-farmers were programmed and with any luck in about six weeks he’d have wheat, oats, barley, corn, beans, rice, cabbage, potatoes, tomatoes, okra, mushrooms, squash, and many more fruits and vegetables.
Today he was working on Meat Lab 1. Set up was pretty straight forward, the equipment and power were in place, and the specimens were brought from dimensional storage to the grow labs, it was just the pathing necessary to cultivate, harvest and can the meats. His budget was limited here, he had chicken, beef, and pork cultures, and that was it.
Who would have thought his life savings, his parents life savings, and the sale of his ancestral home still couldn’t get him everything he wanted to start a new life on a colony world? He tapped his tablet a few more times before he was satisfied with the pathing, he pretty much copied it over from Hydro 1, they both canned the food in the end anyways.
He then checked on his mining drones, they were busy little beavers, and had found a remarkable amount of usable materials. More than even the satellite estimated for this location, he sent a few of them two days ago to cut a shaft down to the petroleum reserves, it appears that they had indeed succeeded in locating it.
He brought up the auto-factories that he had built from the nano-forge, numbers three and seven were idle, so he started constructing hauler drones to pump the raw petroleum into their internal tanks and then bring them up to Storage 1, where they can unload into new tanks. This will solve my plastics issue… I hope.
Yup, everything was going smoothly. Even if he never made it back to the empire, at least here he could have a little piece of it, with all the modern conveniences he was used to. “Screw living in places like Wuzhen. They didn’t even have indoor plumbing!” He muttered as his attention was brought to a notification on his tablet. INTRUDER ALERT. ____________ Pan ran as though her life depended on it. Well, actually it did, for the instinctive Ox-Kin that were chasing her would kill and eat her if she were caught. Being Rabbit-Kin her small and agile frame allowed her speed and maneuverability, but the Ox-Kin instinctuals didn’t have to run around trees, they could just push them aside!
Her wagon and all her goods were lost, she was dirty and scared. There was a clearing up ahead and her heart dropped, nowhere to hide, and the stream would slow her down, she was trapped now! She frantically looked from left to right as she continued to run, looking for some way out as the Ox-Kin roared behind her tearing up the ground as their razor sharp hoofs slammed into the ground.
She heard a sound as if there were thunderstorm raging, but it did not end, it simply got louder. She looked up in time to see a black figure on wings of fire plunge towards the ground. She didn’t stop, if it would distract the instinctuals then she would use it to her advantage and hopefully escape this terrible fate.
Suddenly she heard a sound as if someone were rubbing the rim of a meditation bowl, only hundreds of times louder, then screams of pain, several thuds, and then silence. She turned her head to see the black figure stand upright and to her astonishment, all the Ox-Kin were down.
No, not down, dead. Cut in half, obviously in mid gallop for the halves of their bodies were separated by meters. She slowed to take in the strange figure, its helmet magically disappeared behind him, showing a foreign face with short cropped black hair and eyes she had only seen on portraits of the Eternal Empress. _____________ “It’s ok, they’re all dead now. Waste of good beef if you ask me, but it’s a little too close to cannibalism for me. Had enough corpo-starch in the guard to last me a lifetime.” He said as she stopped to take a breath. He slowly started walking over to her.
Pan backed up, rather involuntarily, as this man had just slaughtered half a dozen instinctual Ox-Kin in the blink of an eye.
“Whoa, calm down, not gonna hurt you. Just want to ask you a few questions, I’m Victor by the way, what’s your name?” He asked, hands out to show he meant no harm.
Pan finally caught enough wind to take her hands off her thighs and straighten up, one of her bunny ears fell across her face, a sign of how exhausted she truly was. “I’m… Pan… Sorry, still trying to catch my breath.”
The strange man cocked his head to the side and she noticed it wasn’t just a helm he had been wearing, At first she thought he was wearing all black clothing, but it was actually armor, very intricate armor. “Are you a cultivator? I’ve never seen a male cultivator before.”
Victor chuckled, “I’ve been getting that a lot lately. The answer is… complicated. Now, about those questions. Shall we walk back to your home while I ask?”
Pan shook her head, “The only home I had was my wagon. I was a trader who bought and sold goods. The instinctuals destroyed it while I was gathering water. I heard my Ox bellow and when I came up from the stream it was being eaten, the wagon destroyed, my wares nothing more than shredded trash.” She looked down and started to cry as the realization that she had just lost everything took hold.
Victor put on his officers face, oh boy. Here come the water works. “Shh, calm down, it’s only a wagon. It’s a thing, and things can be replaced.”
She looked up to him and lowered her hands, “Perhaps to a powerful cultivator, but I am but a lowly peasant girl. I will have to sell my self on the streets to eat now!” She buried her face back into her hands and wailed.
“Oh for Emperors sakes!” Victor thought as he scooped the small woman up in his arms. This prompted a sharp “Eeek!” From her as he activated his jump jets. _____________ Pan was terrified. Rabbit-Kin were not made for flying. The strange cultivator had scooped her up in his arms as though she were a small child and launched them into the air. She tried to scream, but the air screeching by her face seemed to carry the noise away. Though she doubted anyone could have heard over fire erupting from his wings.
Suddenly they landed and she was set down. She looked around and saw they were on a ledge, far up the mountain where the Ox-Kin had chased her. The ledge had a metal rail all the way around it but she saw no way to reach it other than flight.
The strange man must have brought his helmet back up before they launched into the air, because he had it up now. He turned to the mountain and it split open before him! After retracting his helm he simply said, “Follow me, since you don’t have a home, I’ll bring you to mine.”
She followed him into the mountain, expecting it to be dark and cold, but to her surprise it was warm and light shown down from the ceiling as if it were daylight! The walls were smooth stone, and after a few meters in the mountain closed behind them, only it seemed to do it twice, once inside and once outside.
She continued to walk until they came to a strange door with a wheel in the center. The cultivator spun the wheel and opened the metal door. She had never seen so much worked metal in all her days. Even the blacksmith shops lacked the amount, or skill she saw here.
After she entered into a small chamber, Victor closed the door behind them and walked to a strange outcropping on the wall and turned around. The armor up close was neither new nor perfect, she saw dints and dings, and scorch marks in places. Then she jumped back as it split in half and Victor stepped out in nothing more than short pants covering his man-hood.
She blushed and diverted her eyes, but not before noticing the rippling muscles, scar tissue, and little round metal discs at regular intervals all over his body. He covered himself with a very plush white robe and slippers before opening another door that was identical to the first. “Should I wear slippers as well, Master Cultivator?”
Victor looked back, “That won’t be necessary, the cleaning drones will handle any mess we cause.” Pan pondered on what a drone was. A servant perhaps? Was that why he brought me here, to be one of his servants? Or was it something else? Oh no, she mentioned having to sell herself, did he expect her to be one of his mistresses? She wouldn’t be opposed, for he was a handsome man, but what kin was he?
She almost missed what was said next. “This is my humble abode, you’re welcome to stay here for a time while I get my bearings on this land.” Victor said as he walked over to the table and picked up a piece of see-through glass. Magical runes and pictures flared into existence as he tapped at it before setting it back down.
Pan could barely speak. This place was what she would expect in the Imperial palace. There was no kang, or open fire, but it was the perfect temperature and humidity. She saw a large couch, tables, chairs, cabinets of wood, a countertop with a strange steel bowl and what looked as if it were a well pump above it.
The back wall had multiple doors, the two that were open showed one to be a bed room, with a huge bed, the other was tiled with a white chair, it almost looked like a throne? How strange she thought as she peered into the room to see a chamber of fogged glass also inside the room.
Victor noticed her curiosity, “That is the bathroom. Come here, I’ll show you.”
Pan followed Victor into the bathroom as he demonstrated the toilet, explaining rather embarrassingly how it worked and how to use it, he then showed her the glass chamber with the odd steel handles.
“This one is hot, and this one is cold, you turn them both on until you get the temperature just right to clean yourself. On the wall there is liquid soap, shampoo, and conditioner, though I keep my hair close, so the conditioner wouldn’t be as necessary as say someone with your long hair.” He explained.
Pan was shocked as the saw the stream of water pouring from the wall. What manner of magic was this? “I have never seen a male cultivator, but it is known they are master craftsmen, can you all create such magical wonders?”
Victor shrugged, “No idea, I’ve never met another, uh, male cultivator.”
Pan considered, “Could I, maybe use this chamber to clean up? This mornings activities have left me a little soiled.”
Victor nodded, “Of course.” He reached into a small cabinet and produced a large piece of fluffy cloth and placed it on another steel rail outside the chamber. Before placing a smaller version of it inside the chamber on a rack. Finally he reached back into the cabinet and produced a robe much like he was wearing and placed it on a hook behind the door.
He then pointed to the small one inside the chamber, “That is a wash cloth to clean yourself with the soap, use the shampoo here on your hair, and then after rinsing it out, rub the conditioner in and let it sit a bit before finally rinsing it out. Then dry yourself off with this towel, and put on the robe I placed on the door.”
Pan nodded, “What will you do with my clothes after I remove them?”
Victor sniffed “Probably burn them.” He thought to himself. “I will provide you with clothes to lounge around the house.” He turned around and closed the door behind him.
Pan used the ‘toilet’ surprised at its efficiency to clean itself with water before turning on the water stream and adjusting the knobs until it was pleasant. She took to cleaning herself with gusto, for she had never had such luxury. Even the tubs at the inns she could sometimes visit were not this nice.
She heard the door open, and through the smoked glass she could see that Victor seemed to be gathering her things from the floor and leaving behind something on the ‘toilet’. After getting herself more clean that she thought she ever had in her entire life she sighed and decided she needed to get out.
After fiddling with the knobs and nearly freezing herself before turning them the proper way she reached out and grabbed the ‘towel’ and found it did an amazing job of drying her. Afterwards she tied the cloth up in her hair, careful not to get her ears and examined the clothes he brought her.
There was an article of clothing like what he wore, the short pants, but smaller, and tighter. She assumed it was for the same purpose and put it on, then she found a soft pair of pants, like men would wear, but of much finer and softer material. Finally, there was a form fitting shirt that she found left little to the imagination, but she had little choice to but to put it on. Finally there were thick, luxurious slippers on the floor and the robe on the back of the door.
She came out of the bathroom to find him at the strange counter, cooking. “A man who cooks for a woman? I know he is a foreigner, but I have never heard of this happening.” She thought as he waved her to the large table.
“I missed breakfast this morning, your little tussle with the Ox-Kin ladies kind of put it on hold, have you eaten?” He asked.
Pan felt the hunger pains when he asked as she shook her head.
He chuckled as he continued his work, “No, I guess you didn’t get a chance to eat this morning either.
How do you like your eggs?”
Pan was confused, “Um, I prefer them cooked?”
Victor looked back before saying, “Scrambled it is then.”
After a few minutes and some toiling around the cupboards he dropped off a huge plate in front of her. “Normally I’d let the auto-cook prepare the food, but since I’m getting everything up and running at the moment it’s missing a lot of ingredients. So, I worked with what I had, scrambled eggs, bacon, grits, and toast.”
She stared down at her plate, it mostly looked familiar, but the white porridge was a bit different. He handed her strange utensils before pushing two strange bottles with seasonings in them with holes punched in the top. She watched as he used the utensils to eat, and attempted to do the same.
The spoon was easy, she had used those for soup, but the tiny pitch fork and knife were difficult. Victor noticed this and stood up, went to a cabinet and pulled out a drawer and brought back metal chop sticks.
Pan stared at them, they were perhaps brass, possibly even gold, her mouth dropped, these utensils would have been worth more than her wagon! Victor looked up from his food, “Is everything ok? Is there something wrong with the chopsticks?”
Pan hurriedly put the chopsticks to work grabbing up the slivers of pork. “No, no. This lowly peasant girl was merely in amazement at the quality of the utensils.”
Victor nodded as he watched her eyes go round with amazement after chewing on the bacon. Before she dug into the eggs and tried the grits, deciding they needed the seasonings, which she found was salt and a form of pepper, she nodded before cleaning her plate.
Victor sat back, his own plate clean, “Now that’s a healthy appetite, I wasn’t sure a girl your size could finish a plate like that.”
Pan flushed, a bit embarrassed, “It was no doubt due to your cooking expertise. But I still don’t know why you brought me here.”
Victor stood and took her plate and utensils and opened a strange metal door under the counter and placed them into a metal chamber before closing it back. “You said you were a traveling merchant, which means you go places and hear things. I’m new here and have questions. Therefore we can help each other.”
He ushered Pan to the plush couch and sat down, she took the time to pull her hair out of the towel and he took it from her and went into the ‘bathroom’ a strange name as there was no bathtub inside it and returned to sit at the opposite side of the couch.
Pan let him sit before asking, “Ok, you have questions, what do you want to know?”
Victor took a moment to gather his thoughts before speaking, “Why do you have rabbit ears? Why do people in the villages have monkey tails or goats eyes? And what the hell is up with these instinctuals that are more animal that people?” _______________ It had been hours and Pan was actually feeling mentally drained. The man before her was not a cultivator. Whatever he was, she doubted many cultivators except the Empress could hope to match him. The more he showed her, the more she was certain his powers were unlimited. She didn’t know whether to bow in awe, or run in terror.
Not from this plane of existence is how he put it. Meaning from the realm of the divinities maybe? She did not know for sure.
“So, this Eternal Empress came along a few thousand years ago, united the lands, built a wall and a government, and now uses her armies and cultivator sects to maintain law and order across her lands?” He asked.
Pan nodded, “Yes, before her we were broken into tribes that warred against one another constantly.”
Victor paced in front of her, “So she is immortal, like me. That’s good and bad, good in that she may have the knowledge to get me home. Bad, that she could see me as a threat and has tons of resources.” He suddenly stopped pacing. “I’m hungry, are you hungry?”
Pan was not going to say no to a free meal, as she literally had nothing to her name now. Not even her clothes. “I could eat master… er Victor.”
He started off to the ‘kitchen’ and opened the top to the large metal door and produced a round item wrapped in flexible glass? Or was it cloth that looked like glass? “Victor is fine, I’m going to make a Pizza, I doubt you’ve ever had one, but trust me, they’re great.”
As he worked they continued the questions, “So cultivators are broken up into sects, each one with its own goals and agendas, but all loyal to the Empress?”
Pan nodded, “Yes, and then the Iron Legions are armored mortals who keep the peace throughout the empire, although none of the towns around here are large enough to boast a garrison.”
The metal and glass hinged door was opened and the round cake like object that was placed on a pan was put into it and the door closed. “Ok, twenty minutes and we eat. So tell me, what kin is the Empress?”
Pan looked confused, “The Empress is the Empress, she has no kin.”
Victor wiped his hands on a small dish towel, “So you are rabbit-kin, I’ve met tiger-kin and boar-kin, and others, but she has no kin?”
Pan made a sudden connection, “No, she is like you. She has no kin.”
Victor dropped the dish towel on the counter, “So she’s human.” ________________ “Curse that damnable Victor Cane!” Mei swore as she and Xiang pushed the wagon to free it from the mud once more as the Ox pulling it simply lacked the strength to free it.
Xiang looked to her sect sister, “My my, Mei.” She chuckled at her own word play. “If I didn’t know better I’d say you were getting fixated on the male.”
Mei stared daggers at her companion, she knew she could feel the killing intent, but as they were both second tier, it did little. “The male was aloof, arrogant, cared nothing for face, and ignored me on the battlefield!”
Xiang grinned even more as she climbed aboard the wagon and took the reins. “Don’t think the rest of your sisters haven’t noticed the way you talk about him, you cover your interest with complaint, but it is a thin sheet.”
Mei reached down to her left hand, “He put his hand on mine in the Inn before he flew away on wings of fire. He was trying to comfort me on the loss of our sisters.”
Xiang turned her head sharply, “You didn’t put that in your report, this is the first any of us have heard of it.”
Mei sighed, “I don’t know what to think of it. Male cultivators are so rare, just seeing one outside of the the sect inner circles is a rarity. Most of us never get to even speak to a male cultivator unless we ascend to a high tier within the sect, making us worthy of being in their presence. I wanted to cherish it.”
Xiang smiled as she looked back to the ox before snapping the reins, “I would cherish it too, this is a hard life, mortal men would break in our embrace, but a cultivator male would not. He was a good looking man for a foreigner too.”
Mei shuddered, “That he is, even if a bit rugged, he is evidently a soldier after all.”
Xiangs mischievous grin was back, “I knew it, you were pining over this Victor!”
Mei’s killing intent was definitely felt by Xiang this time as she laughed uproariously at her friends discomfort.
“Fear not my OLDER sister, for in one passing of the moon we will be in the Celestial City and you can deliver your prize to the Empress. I am sure after this you will get to see your handsome soldier again. That is, if the Empress doesn’t take him as her own.” Xiang sang the last part with glee.
Mei stopped glaring, “You don’t think she would do that do you?” She asked.
Xiang laughed so hard she almost fell off the wagon.

2023.06.08 21:27 whatisthemovee Do I need to reprogram my fuel pump?

Hi, I have a 2014 535i xDrive and was having issues with my fuel pump overheating. Winter the vehicle drove fine, but as soon as the temperature was above 76 my engine would die around an hour until it started back up about 40 minutes later with no issues. It again died on me when it was 85 out within about 25 minutes of driving, starting back up after an hour. Both times giving fuel system warnings.
My mechanic replaced the fuel pump for me, but said with the part came with a notecard that it needed to be flashed/reprogrammed and said he wasn't able to do it himself and a BMW dealership would need to do it. But, he wasn't sure since the car started and drove fine.
I scheduled an appointment at my local dealership but the appointment is in 5 days from now. Since the fuel pump was replaced the car has been driving fine and haven't noticed anything with the car, but I haven't driven it for an extended period of time (30+ minutes) yet.
My question is do I really need to bring it in to get it reprogrammed? I've driven about 40 miles with the new fuel pump and the car drives fine. The part number of the fuel pump is 16 11 7 341 301

2023.06.08 21:26 iveneverhadgold I sent my brand new Henry Big Boy X in for warranty because the knob pin was so loose the inner mag tube kept ejecting while firing and this is how it came back to me.

Henry says they replaced the Outer Mag Tube Support which is the slot that holds the pin in and it's just as loose if not more loose than before I sent it in. Above it I show how solid the mag tube pin is on my Big Boy Classic. I don't even need to fire it to know the inner mag tube is going to eject and jam my lever again. Am I wrong? Is it supposed to be this loose. Either way I'm stuck with a lemon because the repair obviously doesn't work.
Worst part is they gave me a fancy thank you card that had no swag in it! It was completely empty! Why even give me a card? (Unless the Scheels associates pocketed it)

2023.06.08 21:23 Dismal-Jellyfish SEC Chair Gary Gensler: "Given that most crypto tokens are subject to the securities laws, it follows that most crypto intermediaries have to comply with securities laws as well." "In other parts of our securities markets, the exchange, broker-dealer, and clearing functions are separate."

SEC Chair Gary Gensler:

Source: https://www.sec.gov/news/speech/gensler-remarks-piper-sandler-060823

Before getting to Gary's speech:

A DEX is an exchange and proof of delivery for assets one to one, so it is not packaging securities.
That is how you or I may know it BUT....
The SEC is soliciting comments for what the 'official' definition is and based on that they will take action(s).

It behooves ALL of us to to review the proposed rules:

SEC Reopens Comment Period for Proposed Amendments to Exchange Act Rule 3b-16 and Provides Supplemental Information. "The reopening release reiterated the applicability of existing rules to platforms that trade crypto asset securities, including so-called “DeFi” systems"
I imagine folks are going to leave comments in light of the SEC's actions on Binance and Coinbase on this proposal that would go against GME's interests in the space moving forward?
I have this 165 page proposal 'down to' 61 pages I am working to try and turn into post(s) before the comment period is up next week.
Unless 'we the people' tell Gary and the SEC what a DEX, exchange, security, etc. is, absent laws from congress, they are going to INTERPRET it how they please.
We deserve better than that and this is our chance to say how and why on the official record.

Speech:

Thank you, Rich, for that kind introduction. As is customary, I’d like to note that my views are my own as Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and I’m not speaking on behalf of my fellow Commissioners or the SEC staff.
Well-regulated Markets
Rich, I’m honored to speak at what I’m told is your last of a 20-year run of conferences.
I’d like to focus on one area, which I think sits right at the intersection of the two things you highlight in the title of this conference—Exchanges and Fintech—and that’s crypto.
The U.S. capital markets thrive because we’ve had rules of the road that have helped ensure for investor protection, transparency, and competition for 90 years—since the signing of the Securities Act of 1933. A year after signing that law, President Roosevelt worked with Congress to pass the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to regulate securities intermediaries, such as exchanges and broker-dealers. That law also created the SEC, and this past Tuesday was our 89th birthday.
Crypto Securities
There is nothing about the crypto securities markets that suggests that investors and issuers are less deserving of the protections of our securities laws.
Congress could have said in 1933 or in 1934 that the securities laws applied only to stocks and bonds.
“Congress’s purpose in enacting the securities laws was to regulate investments, in whatever form they are made and by whatever name they are called.”[1] This is not just a talking point. This is the law of the land, as Justice Thurgood Marshall wrote in the Supreme Court’s famous Reves decision.
Congress included a long list of 30-plus items in the definition of a security, including the term “investment contract.”
As articulated in another famous Supreme Court decision, SEC v. W.J. Howey Co.,[2] an investment contract exists when there is the investment of money in a common enterprise with a reasonable expectation of profits to be derived from the efforts of others. This test has been reaffirmed by the Supreme Court numerous times—the Court cited Howey as recently as 2019.
In the Howey decision, the Court said that definition of an investment contract “embodies a flexible, rather than a static, principle, one that is capable of adaptation to meet the countless and variable schemes devised by those who seek the use of the money of others on the promise of profits.”
As I’ve said numerous times, the vast majority of crypto tokens meet the investment contract test. Not liking the message isn’t the same thing as not receiving it.
These tokens have teams promoting them with websites and Twitter accounts. Investors may even meet the entrepreneurs. These tokens are not coming out of thin air. They are not growing out of the ground like corn or wheat. That they’re digital doesn’t differentiate them from huge swaths of the capital markets, where securities and currencies already are digital.
Satoshi Nakamoto’s innovation spurred the development of crypto assets and the underlying blockchain ledger technology. Regardless, however, of the ledger being used, be it a spreadsheet, a database, or blockchain technology, when investors put their money at risk, it’s the economic realities of the investment that matter.
Thus, crypto security issuers need to register the offer and sale of their investment contracts with the SEC or meet the requirements for an exemption. For decades, we’ve had rules governing how issuers must do that. We have flexible rules for the disclosures required in registration statements—Regulation S-K and Regulation S-X—and exemptions from registration, including Regulation A or Regulation D.
We’ve also provided years of guidance to market participants on what does or does not constitute a crypto asset security, including the DAO report in 2017[3] and the staff’s “Framework for ‘Investment Contract’ Analysis of Digital Assets” in 2019.[4] More than 100 Commission orders, settled actions, and court decisions also have made clear when the offer and sale of a token is a security, including our actions against Telegram,[5] LBRY,[6] and Kik.[7]
In fact, we alleged just this week that Binance’s chief financial officer and chief compliance officer were aware of the Kik case’s relevance to their own business.[8] According to our complaint against Binance, as a result of the SEC’s action against Kik, Binance insiders realized that they would need to “start prepping everything” for a subpoena and Wells notice relating to their exchange token, BNB, including a “War chest.”
When crypto asset market participants go on Twitter or TV and say they lacked “fair notice” that their conduct could be illegal, don’t believe it. They may have made a calculated economic decision to take the risk of enforcement as the cost of doing business.
Just as in other parts of the securities markets, registration and compliance takes work— something that the debt and equity issuers at this conference know well. This is appropriate, though, because it’s the work that ensures that investors get the full, fair, and truthful disclosure they deserve.
Some promoters of crypto asset securities contend that their token has a function beyond simply being an investment vehicle. As the courts in the Telegram case[9] and others[10] have said, however, some additional utility does not remove a crypto asset security from the definition of an investment contract. The investing public generally buys these crypto assets, at least in part, anticipating profit based on the efforts of those token issuers.
In fact, in that famous Howey decision, the Supreme Court wrote that, if the investment contract test is satisfied, “it is immaterial whether the enterprise is speculative or nonspeculative, or whether there is a sale of property with or without intrinsic value.”[11] Still, for those tokens that are used exclusively within their blockchain ecosystems, the staff has shown willingness to provide no-action letters.[12]
Crypto Intermediaries
Given that most crypto tokens are subject to the securities laws, it follows that most crypto intermediaries have to comply with securities laws as well.
Again, these laws have been on the books for decades. Sections 5, 15(a), and 17A(b) of the Exchange Act require that intermediaries acting as securities exchanges, brokers and dealers, and clearing agencies are subject to the securities laws, and must register or satisfy requirements for an exemption.
Again, these crypto entities know the rules. As Binance’s chief compliance officer put it bluntly to a colleague in 2018, “[w]e are operating as a fking unlicensed securities exchange in the USA bro.”
Registration is not just a process issue. Failure to register isn’t just a foot fault in a tennis game. It’s core to providing the investing public and our markets with basic protections.
This year, we alleged in separate actions that Beaxy,[13] Bittrex,[14] Binance,[15] and Coinbase[16] commingled and unlawfully offered securities intermediation functions without registering them with the SEC. The Commission settled actions against EtherDelta in 2018[17] and Poloniex in 2021.[18]
These alleged failures deprive investors of critical protections, including rulebooks that prevent fraud and manipulation, proper disclosures, segregation of customer assets, safeguards against conflicts of interest, oversight by a self-regulatory organization, and routine inspection by the SEC. When intermediaries don’t register, it’s investors who get hurt and the American financial markets that may suffer.
In other parts of our securities markets, the exchange, broker-dealer, and clearing functions are separate. Separation of these core functions helps mitigate the conflicts that can arise with the commingling of such services.
Rich, if one of your earlier speakers said they were combining these functions or that they were surreptitiously trading against their customers without complying with our rules, no one in this room would stand for it.
I disagree with the notion—and recent history disproves it—that crypto intermediary compliance isn’t possible. I do recognize—and, again, think it’s appropriate—that it takes work. It’s not just a matter of “paying lip service to [the] desire to comply with applicable laws”[19] or seeking a bunch of meetings with the SEC during which you’re unwilling to make the changes needed to comply with the securities laws.
Crypto intermediaries may need to separate lines of business, put into place rulebooks that protect against fraud and manipulation, properly segregate customer funds, mitigate conflicts, or change their approach to clearing and custody. These are the things that protect investors. The fact that they didn’t build their platforms with these things in mind shouldn’t be a free pass to put investors at risk.
Each of the registered stock exchanges at this conference has done the hard work of registering and putting in place appropriate rulebooks and surveillance, and each is subject to all of our rules. We shouldn’t undermine 90 years of securities laws.
As SEC Enforcement Director Gurbir Grewal said, “You simply can’t ignore the rules because you don’t like them or because you’d prefer different ones: the consequences for the investing public are far too great.”[20]
Further, just last month, one firm[21] that limited their business to crypto asset securities was approved by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority as a special purpose broker-dealer.[22] It can be done.
We have addressed the crypto security industry through rulemaking as well. Though many in the industry who have called for rulemaking have expressed dissatisfaction with said rulemaking.
We issued a reopening release that reiterated the applicability of existing rules to platforms that trade crypto asset securities, including so-called “DeFi” systems. This release also provided supplemental information for systems that would be included in a new, proposed exchange definition.[23]
While our current investment adviser custody rule already applies to crypto funds and securities, our recent proposal updating it would cover all crypto assets and enhance the protections that qualified custodians provide.[24]
These are just two of the rules we’ve proposed that touch the crypto markets.
Further, recognizing the risk and uncertainties related to crypto assets, the staff has stated their view on public company accounting related to crypto assets and disclosure regarding significant crypto asset market developments.[25]
Lending and Staking as a Service
Another prevalent feature of crypto markets is that intermediaries and promoters offer lending or staking-as-a-service programs that promise returns in exchange for investors’ crypto tokens. They have many names for their products and for their promised returns, which often are used to entice users to their platforms.
Across decades of cases, though, the Supreme Court has made clear that the economic realities of a product—not the labels—determine whether it is a security under the securities laws.
It doesn’t matter what kind of assets investors put into a lending or staking-as-a-service platform—cash, gold, bitcoin, or anything else. It’s what the intermediary says that they are going to do with the assets that determines what protections are provided by the law. Customers invest their assets with the platform, which then onlends them or pools and stakes them, in each case promising a return. These are classic securities, irrespective of whether crypto is involved.
Again, the SEC has been clear on this for a number of years. From BitConnect[26] in 2021, BlockFi[27] in 2022, to a series of actions this year, [28] the SEC has consistently alleged that these lending and staking-as-a-service offerings need to register and provide the investing public with proper disclosures.
Just this week, along with 10 states, we charged Coinbase for never properly registering the offer and sale of its staking program.[29]
Conduct: Fraud, Manipulation, and Bankruptcies
With wide-ranging noncompliance, frankly, it’s not surprising that we’ve seen many problems in these markets. We’ve seen this story before. It’s reminiscent of what we had in the 1920s before the federal securities laws were put in place. Hucksters. Fraudsters. Scam artists. Ponzi schemes. The public left in line at the bankruptcy court.
Earlier this week, we alleged that certain Binance entities misled investors about the platform’s risk controls and its corrupted trading volumes while actively concealing who was operating the platforms, the manipulative trading of its affiliated market maker, and even where and with whom investor funds and crypto were custodied.[30]
We also allege that Sigma Chain, an affiliate controlled by Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, acting as the principal market maker on Binance.US, engaged in manipulative trading and conducted wash trading that fraudulently inflated trading volumes on the platform, including around Binance.US’s launch, its subsequent funding round, and when certain new crypto security tokens were recently listed.
Further, through accounts owned and controlled by Zhao and Binance, billions of dollars of customer funds from both Binance platforms allegedly were commingled into an account held by a Zhao-controlled entity, Merit Peak Limited.
The allegations also describe Zhao and Binance’s attempt to evade U.S. securities laws by announcing sham controls that they disregarded behind the scenes so that they could keep high-value U.S. customers on their platforms. Our complaint quoted Binance’s chief compliance officer, who said, “On the surface we cannot be seen to have US users but in reality, we should get them through other creative means,” and that the CCO further said, “CZ will definitely agree to this lol … I have been briefed by top management to always find a way to support biz.”
We also saw deception of investors by FTX.[31] We saw deception with the collapse of Terra and LUNA. Do Kwon and Terraform, we alleged, repeated false and misleading statements to build trust before causing devastating losses for investors.[32]
In the case against Justin Sun and three of his companies, we alleged, among other things, a scheme to pay celebrities to tout tokens without disclosing compensation.[33]
I could go on, but in a market rife with fraud, abuse, and noncompliance, there are too many to list.
We’ve also seen numerous companies—before and after FTX—blow themselves up, hurting countless investors in their wake. As a result of the bankruptcies of BlockFi, Celsius, FTX, Genesis, and other crypto firms, investors often are left lining up in court.
Let me be clear: These types of misconduct and bankruptcies are more likely to happen in markets whose issuers and intermediaries fail to comply with foundational laws. Even when we might not find fraud or such blatant misconduct, investors need proper disclosure, segregation of their hard-earned assets, and confidence that they are not trading against the house.
Conclusion
Markets ultimately are about trust. For 90 years, that trust has relied upon compliance with the securities laws.
The crypto securities markets should not be allowed to undermine the well-earned trust the public has in the capital markets.
The crypto markets should not be allowed to harm investors.

TLDRS:

  • SEC Chair Gary Gensler:
    • "Given that most crypto tokens are subject to the securities laws, it follows that most crypto intermediaries have to comply with securities laws as well."
    • "In other parts of our securities markets, the exchange, broker-dealer, and clearing functions are separate."
  • It behooves ALL of us to to review the proposed rules:

2023.06.08 21:23 WittyAd7059 why do I (19F) feel weird about my boyfriend (19M) being best friends with his ex (20F)?

My boyfriend (19M) and I (19F) became friends about a year ago as we both go to the same university. 3 months later we became FWB, realized we had feelings for each other but didn't want to date until we had both sorted out some mental health stuff. 6 months after becoming FWB, we started dating.
My boyfriend and his ex (20F) met in high school in a different country while he was a junior and she was a senior, where he has told me they were friends and he had an instant crush on her after they met, and got together shortly after. After 2 months of dating (never had sex), his ex realized she was a lesbian and broke it off. My boyfriend harbored the normal amount of negativity, but got over it quickly and they went back to being close friends. At the end of the year, his ex moved to Canada for university. She's a 5 hour train ride from where we are now.
The next year he also moves to Canada for university. I'm not sure if this was a coincidence, because both of them are international students with no ties to Canada, and so the fees are just as high as anywhere else with the same or better rankings (he's a top students and could get into higher ranking universities in the USA or UK, although he and I attend the highest ranked in Canada). But if she was part of the reason he moved, he would've applied to her university (he didnt) so idk. I accompanied my bf while we were still friends to visit her bc cheap holiday, and shes visited him. I really like her, we're good friends now and get along great.
The thing that triggered me feing weird about them was that my bf asked if, while she is visiting him while i'm overseas, if she could sleep in my bed in our house when we have a pullout couch she could use (we live in a house with 3 roommates but have separate bedrooms). Not sure why that made me feel weird, but then I started thinking about the following:
My boyfriend considers her his best friend and has since they were in highschool. He has told me that besides me, she's the girlfriend he fell hardest for and made the most effort to get with. While we were still FWB he sent me an old picture of her saying how hot she looked - this photo was before she cut her hair and isn't on her social media, which means he had kept it since they dated, and it looked like one of those hot mirror selfies you send to someone youre dating. He saves and shows me her Instagram stories when she makes a joke, and says "God why do you make me laugh so hard for huh (referring to his ex)". I've made similar jokes in the past and he doesn't find them nearly as entertaining. He also talks a lot about his visual type, which he emphasizes dark hair (which she has, mine is naturally dark but I dye it white), glasses (she wears them, I have them but don't wear them), and wearing black clothing (which she almost always does, I prefer earth tones). He jokingly listed me not having dark hair as a con in a "pros and cons of dating OP" powerpoint at my birthday party but it still stung a bit. He talks a lot about how shes going to be very relevant in his future kids' lives as their aunt. When we had communication problems and decided to post here about it for help, he called her immediately after posting it while i was asleep in a different time zone, and they went over the responses together. This was the first thing that made me feel iffy but I got over it, figuring we all talk to our best friends abt relationship problems. I'm also eerily similar to her: asian, academic, competitive, similar eyeliner style, biology relevant majors, mean to him in a joking way, similar (not very mainstream) fashion sense, wears glasses, likes to read, similar humor etc. One of my bf's friends noticed the similarities and said he "clearly had a type".
Jealousy has never been a problem for me before, even when my ex bfs were friends with their exes (although I was younger and not sexually active with them). When she visited we were still in dorms and she slept on a matress beside his bed, and i had no problems leaving them alone. I obviously don't think there's anything between them, she's not into his equipment, and i know my bf loves me. He's on of the most caring people I know and he loves his friends more than anything which could explain some of this. I have no idea why i feel weird about specifically his side of their relationship, and I don't even know if it's jealousy. Maybe I'm worried that he never really got over her and is subconciously using me as a budget filler because he knows she's not an option? tell me if I'm just super insecure.
TLDR; my boyfriend holds his unavailable ex in very high regard to the point where I'm worried I'm a low quality replacement

PowerA PS4 controller question
Hey all,
I to swap the broken USB port on a PowerA Playstation 4 Fusion Pro Wireless Controller. I disassembled it and wanted to replace the old USB with a new one. As i was doing that i noticed I might be missing a part.
Can somebody take a look and tell me if that is the case? I simply do not remember if there was a part, because I removed the USB Port weeks ago and now I wanted to install the new one.
And if there is something missing, can someone provide me with a miracle and tell what exactly is missing?
Thanks is advance!

2023.06.08 21:12 lauromafra Early-Stage Investment Revolution in a Democratized Financial Landscape

The evolution of financial opportunities has ushered in a new era of investment democratization. Early-stage investments, once the privilege of the elite, are now accessible to all retail investors regardless of their location or financial status. Leveraging Web3 technology, this inclusive approach empowers individuals to manage their financial destinies.
The guiding principles of this new paradigm are transparency and community-driven governance. All transactions and activities are visible to everyone, fostering an environment of inclusivity and fairness. The final investment decisions are in the hands of the investors themselves, aided by a council of seasoned professionals.
The system is powered by a token on the Ethereum blockchain, with a small fee applied to transactions to fuel a Community Fund and creating a closed-loop circular economy. Recently, a unique opportunity emerged in the form of a Genesis Series NFT sale, designed to give everyone a chance to be part of something special.
This democratization of finance has brought forward an all-in-one platform making investing user-friendly. A closed-loop economic model generates value for its users, and educational initiatives break down the complexities of early-stage deal flows. Regular Ask-Me-Anything (AMA) sessions provide users with a direct line of communication to the experts.
Common Wealth exemplifies this revolution. A Web3 platform, it democratizes early-stage deal flow investing and continually generates value for its users. It hosts regular AMA sessions, organizes events like "All Street Beat," and engages in discussions on current topics, such as the "Varieties of Derisking" in decarbonization investment strategies, demonstrating its commitment to keeping users informed about the latest trends and developments.
This approach marks the end of investment FOMO, welcoming everyone to a world where everyone has a fair shot at wealth-generating opportunities and participates in decision-making. It's a welcoming call to everyone for the world of early-stage investments.

Atrocious engine noise
Atrocious Engine sound
Hello all,
Just stopped at a mechanic who stated my condenser, belt tensioner, idler(belt pulley?) And belt need to be replaced. Said it's in the ballpark of 1900-2400 (located in south Florida). Recommended parts include an AC kit w/condenser and the other items listed above.
Is this something I can safely do myself? The tech that came out said I could, but I have never messed with AC systems before. Tips? Walkthroughs? Don't touch that or you'll get your hand blown off kid? Anything is helpful.

Some of the jets (specifically the spinning ones) no longer spin. It seems almost impossible to find replacement anything for this.
Are there any after market parts for them? Would like some of the CMP ones work at all?

2023.06.08 21:09 Few-Investigator6724 What would happen if Olly Wang survived?

IDK if thi shas been asked before but it would be intresting. Would workers buy him? ore would he join Hostel B.
Scenario 1: Olly dosnt die and exiles Hostel B to Gnagbuk ore central soul. Ore they join him who now come up with good ideas!
Scenario 2: Olly survives but ever one thinks hes dead. Will he pop upp when Hostel needs him ore in Workers 1 affiliate as a secret executive?
Scenario 3: What if Olly were in charge when workers tried to take over Hostel
Random scenarios
Scenario 1: Olly, Samuel, Warren and Warren goes to Suwon and faces of head to head with Seokdu industri the executives and Seokdu as the boss.
Scenario 2: What if Olly helped Eli in chapter 390-410 when workers recruited him and Warren.
Scenario 3: Olly replaces Samuel in workers 4 affiliate
Scenario 4: Olly is part of workers 3 affiliate T group
Scenario 5: Olly takes Elis place in Jiho arc
Scenario 6: Olly joins Warren in the 2 affiliate
Scenario 7: Olly fights with workers against big deal.
Basically if you haven't caught on this is about Olly only and its many of these scenarios are just replacing Eli with Olly ore making Olly join in with Hostel.

IMPORTANT NOTE. Olly will be upp scaled so to not have a chapter 200 level Charter vs chapter 400 charakter. Hes strength will be relevant to Warrens ore Elis. Lets say Tom Lee ore manger Kim keeps training him when Gun took Daniel

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Selling an early 1930's Sheaffer Balance Slim pen and pencil set.
The Sheaffer Balance was the first mass produced cigar shaped pen. Before it came out, nearly every pen on the market was cylindrical and had a flat top. It set the trend in 1929 when it first came out.
This particular Balance is in the much sought after Grey Marble w/ Red Vein.
Sheaffer made 2 Red Vein color variants (and didn't distinguish between, much to the frustration of collectors). One had the a more pale and grey celluloid color between the red veins and the other had a more beige tone. This set is made of the more beige tone.
The beige tone red vein celluloid was only used on the slim Balance and on the short / pocket size balance. It was never made into the full size Balance or oversize Balance pen.
It is the rarer of the Red Vein variants as was only offered in 2 sizes compared to 4.
The beige tone Red Vein is also impervious to crazing and celluloid decay, where as the silver tone variant is not and has been known to craze sometimes.
The slim is the same length as the Sheaffer Balance full size and oversize. It's just thinner. Kinda like how the Watermen 52 1/2 is the slim version of the Waterman 52.
Capped length is about 5.5 inches.
It has the short humped clip with the ball which means this pen was made between 1932 and 1935. It's an early Balance from before the striped celluloid models were released.
Nib is a very smooth F. It's firm but not a nail. Tipping is in perfect condition and I doubt it was used much considering the overall condition of the pen. See writing sample in the photos.
I've restored it with a brand new latex sac and it's functioning perfectly.
Comes with a matching mechanical pencil and original box.
[B++] Condition. Near perfect. Best one I've ever seen. A real collectors item. No scratches, no microscratches, no cracks. No brassing to the lever or cap band. One tiny speck of brassing on one of the sides of the ball on the clip you have to squint to see. No brassing on the rest of the clip. Imprint is perfect with the white stuff they rubbed on the letters in the Sheaffer factory still partially intact.
The pencil was likely used more than the pen as it has a tiny bit of plating wear on the tip where the lead comes out and a few light scratches to the metal cone there. The rest of it in the same condition as the pen. Pencil lead is included and retracts when you twist the top part of the pencil,
I'm listing it at $215 which is underpriced for this set in this condition. It should be closer to $250
If you check here the pencil alone is worth $80 and the pen is worth about double that.
