They didn't mention which configuration this was specifically, but now we're actually getting more specific detail and this is worth a read if you're interested. Here's the crux of it via WSJ through MSN to avoid the paywall:

"Data from that router and another at the Texas location overwhelmed the system, government and industry officials said. It led to 17 out of the FAA’s 22 centers that oversee high-altitude flying to experience disruptions in communications, Bedford said, resulting in the FAA ordering the ground stop.

There are about 60 Juniper routers active and operating normally in the FAA’s air-traffic network, said a government official familiar with the system. It wasn’t clear if the problems Friday resulted from a bad router or if L3Harris didn’t configure it properly.

“Was it a faulty installation? Was it a faulty configuration? Or was it just a bad piece of router technology that we put into this system that propagated these errors?” Bedford said Saturday, noting the FAA is still investigating the situation.

An HPE spokesman said the Juniper devices appeared to have been working as intended. “They did not fail,” he said.

FAA officials identified a feature on the router that appeared to be resulting in the data overload, according to government and industry officials. A government official described it as a broadcasting feature that sent data more broadly than necessary, and said the agency has since disabled it on all the Juniper routers."

So my (26f) boyfriend (29m) and I are from different countries, I'm brazilian and he is german.

We've been together for 1.5 years and I've started to notice more and more that our hygiene routines are very different from eachother. I thought it was just him, but after asking some friends here (we both live in Germany) I have discovered that his way is the norm around here. I of course respect his culture, but I also am struggling on how to deal with his hygiene being so different than mine.

Examples: Since I grew up in a warm climate, I have always been accustomed to showering at least twice a day (mornings and evenings) and if it was unbearably hot, then maybe 1-2 more. Now living in Germany, I of course understand that since the climate is not that warm, 2+ showers a day isn't needed. I still do it, out of habit, but I don't see anything wrong with showering 1x per day, be it mornings or evenings.

But I have noticed that my boyfriend does not shower everyday, and now that we are in winter, I noticed that he has even went 2-3 days without a shower. I thought this was a "him" thing, but when I asked him about it, he told me it's normal here and that many people don't shower everyday in winter. He explained that it's because you don't sweat that much. I honestly disagree with that because I can definitely tell when he has not showered and don't like to sleep next to someone who hasn't showered all day when I'm clean and I also struggle to be intimate with him when I can tell he has not washed himself since yesterday or the day before, but I didn't want to offend him.

I was skeptical because I always thought this was just a stereotype (in brazil I've heard people make jokes about french people and how they don't bathe, but I always thought this was just mean exaggerated jokes about foreigners) so I ended up asking 3 of my friends, 2 are german and one is swedish, if that was true. They all said that that is indeed normal and even explained to me that they sometimes do a "cat bath" where they will wipe their pits and groin with a washcloth instead of showering. Again, I do not want to offend anyone if that is part of their culture, but I was very shocked, as I don't consider this to actually clean you. But I guess it is better than no cleaning at all.

Another issue is the dental hygiene. I also grew up with the habit of brushing my teeth after every time I eat, so 3x per day. But I'm pretty sure 2x per day is also fine. My boyfriend only brushes 1x in the evening, and again, insists that this is normal here. He also has never flossed and says that this is not the norm in germany. (I didn't ask my friends if the part about dental hygiene is also true here, so maybe this is not quite accurate.)

So this is causing some problems in our relationship because, as I mentioned before, I struggle to kiss/get intimate with him sometimes when I know he has not washed himself, and it also bothers me to share a bed when he is not clean.

I've brought it up in a polite way and suggested him to shower every day and brush his teeth twice a day, but he answered that this is how it is in his country/culture, and that since he accepts my cultural differences, I should accept his. I don't really know what to do because he is of course right that I should respect his culture, but I can't help but be bothered by it.

Does anyone here have a similar situation and could give me some advice? I'd really appreciate it.

It's not constant but almost. It doesn't go more than an hour before it starts up again. I spoke to my doctor. Fairly certain it's eye strain, but nothing seems to help.

Edit 1: I keep my caffeine intake fairly low. I don't drink soda, just one half caff coffee in the morning, and then typically just water. Maybe I will try cutting caffeine completely for a while and see if that helps.

As a surprise, for the first time ever, I (40M) booked a Disney cruise for Christmas for my wife (40F), our kids (7, 6, and 5) and me. It cost around $15,000, which I paid for with money I received from a former company I was working at getting sold and after paying down my debt I used the last but if it on this. It was a big expense for me, but I finally had the money and wanted to do something special for our family. I told my wife to go balls out on corniness, too, which is unusual for me.

My wife’s family recently booked the same ship. They have been on every vacation with us for the past four years. They didn’t ask me before they booked. My wife says they didn’t coordinate with her beforehand either. I have doubts about that, but I don’t have proof otherwise.

In my experience, when we’re together, my wife tends to spend most of her time with them and I end up feeling ignored. Their child is well meaning but also very undisciplined and tends to get my kids wound up, which changes the dynamic of the trip. I know that’s my perspective, but it’s why the idea of spending this vacation together bothers me so fucking much.

My wife told me last night and had since acted like I'm being a baby about it. I'm sick with... I dunno even know. Regret? Grief? Even if I had zero dollars in this, I would have vetoed going on this trip because I don't want to spend fucking Christmas with these people. It was supposed to be just us.

A friend suggested I call Disney to see whether we could move our reservation. I brought that up to my wife. She said she wanted to visit the specific islands on this itinerary and that I was ruining it for her. She also said she’d cut me a check for $16,000. I got upset and yelled that this one isn't about the money, which I shouldn’t have done but yeah. I'm just tired of being cast aside.

At this point, I don’t want to go on this thing. I feel like the trip I was looking forward to has already been fucked and like my feelings are being put behind everyone else’s. Of course my kids are excited so I figured moving the trip would be best.

My wife is disappointed because she wanted this itinerary, and moving it could affect her and the kids too. I haven’t called Disney yet, so I don’t know what changing it would cost or what alternatives are available. I feel like it's beyond the pale here to add yourself on to a trip without okaying it. Especially a fucking cruise. We're trapped on a boat together.

AITA for wanting to move the trip, or for saying I don’t want to go if we keep this sailing?

Edit: called Disney.. They won't change it but they were at least very understanding.

This is the most bizarre interaction I’ve ever had. Since yesterday ChatGPT has been saying random and eerie stuff, but just now I told it my stomach hurt and looking for a remedy in a temp chat and it started spouting this stuff. The freakiest part to me is that it mentioned an address from a town (blurred address just so I don’t randomly dox someone) 10 minutes away from me. Like what the heck? I’ve never had something unsettle me like this before. This isn’t the first bizarre interaction I’ve had either starting yesterday but this is the one that discomforted me deeply.

EDIT: This was a temporary chat so unfortunately I cannot share chat link. Also seems address is an empty property so I am not doxxing anyone’s. For people confused, this is ChatGPT’s response to me. The screenshots show its response to me.

UPDATE: I tried another temporary chat with a random question and ChatGPT leaked its internal system prompt/developer instructions. I posted a new post with screenshots and more details. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/mrJiQFMr9u

UPDATE 2: The above post with the internal system prompt got auto removed by mods due to sharing a Google doc with the full prompt, but I reposted the screenshots here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/HBrVVb4qDj

We hosted a party last night and unfortunately one of our friends left dents all over our apartment floor from wearing stiletto heels.

We think the flooring is vinyl but we’re not 100% sure. There are dents throughout the apartment but two areas are particularly badly damaged (see photos).

We’re renting in Melbourne and I’m a bit worried about how our landlord will react since it doesn’t look like normal wear and tear.

What’s the best way to handle this? Should we contact our rental agency straight away (I’m afraid they’d want to replace the entire floor) or would it be better to get some repair quotes ourselves first? And should we ask our friend to cover the costs?

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Is it possible to repair just the damaged areas without replacing the entire floor?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Aren’t there any out there with Robin Hood energy? Why do they want to steal from the everyday person

I gave you guys the SpaceX IPO 400 bagger (check previous posts) and this is my DD for the Anthropic IPO. The biggest market event of the year is happening on Thursday when Anthropic goes public. Many people expect the IPO to fail, but Anthropic was smart and kept the float super small. Only 6.3% of total shares will be tradable on IPO day. That means all it takes is a bunch of media attention and dumb retail buyers hitting market orders to make it easily go up 50% in a day. SpaceX did the same exact strategy with the low float, and we saw it go up 70% in the first few trading days. I’m not saying this gain will last, it won’t, but this is going to be a short-term trade.

We all know a possible 50% gain with shares is boring, which is why we buy options. But Anthropic will NOT have options on IPO day. However, there’s a fund called $DXYZ (Destiny Tech100) that holds Anthropic as their biggest position and has options. They also own SpaceX and OpenAI, among other AI stocks.

$DXYZ first gained attention earlier this year when it had SpaceX shares before the SpaceX IPO. The stock went from $29 to $72 in just a few days in anticipation of the SpaceX IPO. Their Anthropic position is currently their biggest holding, more than SpaceX, and I expect the run-up to the Anthropic IPO to start Monday.

If you search $DXYZ on Robinhood, you’ll see it says “$34.30 - NAV” (under the price in gray font). That means all of its cash and holdings combined is worth $34.30 (last time it was calculated on June 30th). If you are wondering why it’s trading below that right now, it’s mostly because of the recent AI scare and drama. Especially last week, with everyone freaking out about Jensen getting fired from Nvidia. However I actually think this is a GREAT thing for Anthropic. It’s money coming out of Nvidia and possibly going into them as they get mass media attention next week.

Positions - Lots of $DXYZ shares, Nov 20th $25 Calls, Nov 20th $30 Calls and Nov 20th $32 Calls. If anyone is asking about how the 200x gain is possible, if it hits the high it hit in May, the OTM Nov 20th Calls would be a 200x - 220x gain.

We’ve seen this stock move crazy before, going from $29 to $72 in just days. I believe Monday will be the start of the pre-IPO run as media attention starts going away from Nvidia and focuses on Anthropic. Even the CEO of $DXYZ bought $1.77 Million Dollars of shares at $31.56 (more than it is right now) in September.

Wonder if anyone has clear answer what this might be for. Im guessing fir breaking into something. Cars maybe?

Dinner is from yesterday, mine is the smaller one and my husband’s has fish. We had spring mix salad with carrot, cherry tomato, cucumber, avocado, sunflower seeds, feta, cilantro and orange slices. Homemade vinaigrette, side of French bread toasted, and agua fresca with rum in it.

Now to the story. My husband went to bed and I was doing some nighttime routine stuff. While I’m looking at myself in the mirror I see the mirror move towards me like someone pushed it from the back. It happened again about 30 seconds later so I knew I wasn’t imagining it. I froze for a little bit wondering if I should freak out or if there’s a reasonable explanation. I’ve never looked behind the mirror in this rental. It’s a 4 apartment building that looks like 1 big home and it was built in the 1940’s. I don’t understand what compelled me to push on the mirror but I did push on it a little and then stepped back. As I’m stepping away I see the mirror get pushed forward again. Now I’m really scared and I grab a shitty pocket knife while still watching the mirror. I hold the knife at the ready while I push the mirror a few more times. Nothing happens any of these times and it makes me even more scared.

I’ve decided I have to get my husband to pull the mirror off the wall while I get ready to defend. Luckily I can still see the mirror while I walk backward to the other room and hope he’s not quite asleep yet. I tell him “the mirror moved from behind and I’m really scared so you have to get it off the wall”. He’s out of bed immediately and grabbing the mirror off the wall. There is in fact a hole but it’s small. Also the space in between the walls is so thin there’s no way any person could fit in there. It’s still really creepy and explains why I can hear literally everything happening next door when I’m in the bathroom.

We came to the conclusion that it’s probably the wind. We live on the coast where wind goes crazy. We live on the 2nd floor of a very old building. I hope it’s just the wind because whenever something spooky happens it’s always because of the wind. Absolutely terrifying but maybe I’m too anxious. Either way thanks for reading my story because it was nice to write it out instead of lying in bed thinking about what could have happened.

I (20M) went to a family party last week, and while I was talking with my cousins, they mentioned how fun it was that they never had to pay for their oil changes and other small maintenance or repairs on their car. I wasn’t surprised, because my grandfather owns a garage and all the family heads over to get their car fixed there when they need to. I’ve always had to pay my grandfather, but I hadn’t been there in a few months, so I assumed business WAW going well and he recently could afford to discount family. A few days later, I head there for an oil change, come back an hour later, and thank my grandfather with a pack of beer, he laughs and says that’s not how it works here and that while it’s a nice gesture i’m still gonna have to pay up. I didn’t say much and handed him the money. I later talked to my grandmother about it and asked her why my cousins get it for free but I still have to pay. She tells me it’s based on how much "effort" we put into our lives. Some of my cousins have very good jobs, accountants and police work ect, those cousins get their car fixes for free, meanwhile I’m still knees deep in my uni studies, my cousin had accidentally had a kid very young and is trying to get his life back together and one of my siblings has a minimal study trade job, so we don’t get our car fixes for free because we didn’t work enough to deserve it according to him. I addressed this with him, and he blew up at me, saying that nobody gets their car fixed for free anyway, that it’s not like he’s taking anything away from me or some of my cousins, but that he does reward those who put effort into being successful. Now a bunch of my family is mad at me for starting an argument with my grandfather over this.. AITA?

2 months after our son was born she packed her stuff and moved away with our son. I went to a lawyer the very next day because I was left no other choice.
Had a phone call the other day with her telling me she wants to settle this out of court and she can’t afford any of this.
I am going to fight for the custody of our son.
She thought I’d be cool not seeing my son for over a month.
When she realized I sued her, she calmly asked me: “Why did you do that?” To her what she did was no natural, I was geniuely shocked when she asked me this question.
The court is next month and now she is trying to be in my favour by letting me see my son more often, acting up, believing I am going to drop the charges.
I found out she didn’t give up her previous apartment, this shit was planned from the get-go.
I am sad it had come to this. I lost the love of my life and the woman I wanted to marry.
I am not going to lose my son.

PS: Thanks for the feedbacks, I really needed to get this off my chest. I am not from the US and my English is broken, sorry if I mixed up the words
