How to decorate stairs for wedding

Good afternoon, I'm new to this forum as I am new to owning a BMW.
I just purchased a 2018 BMW x4 28i and it was delivered last night ( June 4th, 2023 ) Upon starting everything up and sitting in the vehicle for an extended amount of the time I began to realize the iDrive/Connected Drive display was very unresponsive, didn't register bluetooth devices, USB devices, or SiriusXM.. after a few minutes the whole system crashed and restarted and it does that about every 5 minutes or so.
I punched in my VIN on the BMW website and told me that the software was up to date. I held the "power"(radio button) in for 60 and did the reset and that did nothing.
Is there anyone who's seen or had these issues before that know what the issue might be or how I can fix this? Thank you in advance.

So there's this really sweet guy I've been acquainted with for a while now and I kind of got the sense that he is into me too. Long story short, we've been talking now for the past couple of weeks through Instagram and then text. He's a pretty dry texter, but we've maintained having a few short exchanges throughout the day everyday. We went out on one date this past friday and it went so well. We had deep conversations and joked around a lot. While we were out he was talking about going out again and later that night we texted briefly and I mentioned that I'd like to see him again and right away he suggested next week.
In all my past dealings with guys, I've usually been the one to text less. I myself am a boring texter and I'm not good at keeping up with my phone which I will usually share with the other party right off the bat, because it's not always indicative of how I feel about them. I just prefer in person or over the phone and don't want to learn everything about a person through text. But recognizing that this is how most people connect and show their interest, I wanted to adapt a little. This is the first time I'm on the other side and I definitely got in my head. I thought it might be worthwhile to bring it up, by simply asking how what his usual texting style is. On the one hand, I don't want to be overthinking things when his messages are one way and our in person interactions are another. On the other hand, I want to know what he likes and doesn't like and share my style too.

Hello everyone!! I wanted to come on here and talk about the possibility of a ACOTAR or Fantasy inspired Fae Ball!
I don’t know about you but I haven’t seen a fantasy/ fae ball in Texas yet! So I thought instead of waiting for one, how about I create one!
I’ve been hyperfixated on planning but I don’t know where to start! I’m thinking of creating a go fund me since I’m just one person and not an event planning company, do y’all think that’s a good idea? Also possibly holding it in San Antonio around winter or fall next year!
So far I’m thinking of live music, vendors, dancing, food, drinks, and possibly even performances!!
I would love any advice, help, or ideas for this project of mine!

We are beginning this week's megathread where people can share your team comps. Toss all the hero/villain comps to discuss on general lineup builds. There will be guides coming out dealing with general events.
Remember to share in this thread and don't post individual team comp. I encourage open discussion posts about philosophies/meta of what you find valuable in gear or stats for PVP or PVE or Events. Even guides on how to beat certain levels are post friendly.

When I saw posts here. I really wanted to have a happy situation to tell. But as of 3 1/2 hours ago I got rejected. I'll start top to bottom of my day. But first Backstory. I've been loving the heck out of this girl since 7th grade and we are now sophomores. At the Beginning of Freshman year, I asked my friend who did have her number If I could have it. (I could at that point never have done it myself.) Finally last day of Freshman year I texted here saying
"Hey -----! This is ----, I got your number from a friend. Just wanted to say Hello! We've been waving in the hallway and such all year. But how's life going? How have you been doing this year? Anyways just saying hi right now and I hope to see you next year!"
I sent this May 26th and didn't get a response and I decided to make sure I had the right number even
Hey! it's me ----. Is this -----'s phone number? Just wondering.
Then about 4 hours ago I got a response finally.
Sorry, wrong number. Please stop texting this number.
My heart sank. I truly was in denial I went to my friend that gave me the number and I asked him Did I get the right number like is that ----- -----------'s number? and he said
"Yes it is."
And I just broke down crying I haven't done anything but sit in silence I don't think I've said a single word accept insulting myself while crying. I have been building up this day and putting many things of my very small attention size due to ADHD to the side for this and I'm just defeated... I don't know what to do. What doesn't help is that earlier today I put down my dog that has been in the family for 14 years (he was a 19 year old Labrador) I've known him all my life and I've put that guy down. I've known this girl since pre school and this relationship Is either put down or will never be the same. Idk what to do. I have nothing to support mey mom can't drive me to counseling and I will be working this year my family hasn't had a job in 7 years now so I have been carrying this household family friends bring me to the store and I grab items and soon that's gone cause I will have to drive. I'm crying and I don't know what to do. I need something out there I've got no one.

Hello everyone. My name is Rudy, I am a 25M and I live in Canada. I am having trouble making IRL friends in the province, due to many cultural differences here. It would be nice to make friends with people who are willing to put a lot of time and effort into the friendship we could potentially have together. If you are someone who works a lot of hours or are constantly busy, I am not the man for you.
So what about me? Well my interests are gaming (Left 4 Dead 2, Project Zomboid, Terraria, The Forest, Fortnite, Apex, Stardew) also if anyone has Java Minecraft and would like to teach me how to build in Minecraft that would be great. I also like reading books about mental-self help, long walks or jogging, my black cat (I can send pics of him), cooking, sleeping, long drives, and meeting new people.
Here is what I would like to potentially do together when we feel more comfortable with each other
We can voicechat and enjoy each other's presence
We can watch movies, or anything really
We can play any of the games I mentioned
We can text each other almost everyday
We can support each other when we have a bad day
That is about it really. I only ask that you are ages between 19 - 30, and are from USA, Canada or Europe for timezone reasons. I heavily prefer discord or telegram to chat on, and voice chat is a must for me.
Hope to chat with you all soon :)

I had my daughter during the peak of COVID, i had a condition during pregnancy that put both baby and i at higher odd of passing/bleeding more than normal. It was a traumatic emergency C-section , a rough 5 days stay at the hospital but here we are 2.5 years later and I'm still deathly afraid of dying and leaving my daughter in this world alone. We both survived the incident and she is thriving. I have talked to a therapist and phycologist and had thought i had it under control more. Until i had a tooth extraction and had a bit of post infection and basically had a mental break down thinking i was going to die from it. I no longer go to the therapist because i felt that she wasn't the best fit for me and didn't know how to tell her that. I do have a tad bit of support but my mom just keeps insisting i need to go to another person and get on different medications, but honestly the meds are all a temporary fix. At a loss these days on how to proceed with this. Typically i will be fine until something medical comes up, and its meltdown city.

I can still remember that landscape, tinted in gray smoke and the smell of death all around us, we hadn’t eaten in days and the enemy was relentless. We had nothing, all hope was quickly eradicated by the week, until the day they finally told us we could go home, we just needed to hold on for five more days. Everyone was ecstatic, we wouldn’t need to suffer in that horrible hole for much longer… That’s when I started seeing it. I was assigned to the night watch, I had done it before, and since I was already sleepless I thought it would be easy to stay focused, it wasn’t, not with that thing staring at me from afar. At first I thought it was the enemy so I informed the general, but he said he didn’t see anything, how could he not? It was right there, those eyes, wide open, bloodshot, staring right at me, I couldn’t make out the rest of the body, just the eyes. Every night I saw those eyes, and every night I tried to see what it was but to no avail, after the five days had passed, we finally got to go home. I was… I couldn’t know, I should've been happy about leaving that horrid and dark trench but… those eyes kept haunting me. When I went home… I felt this dreadful sensation… like this wasn't my home. Luckily my wife and dog took that feeling away from me. I hadn’t seen Sarah in months, I missed her kind smile, her beautiful eyes, and her warm face. Toby was also someone I missed, he was a golden retriever that I had since middle school. After a delightful meal that was much better than what they served us at camp, we went to bed, and I could finally rest peacefully. I woke up in the middle of the night, Toby started barking, it was around 3 am. He was in the backyard, barking at the blackness of the forest behind our home… and there they were, those eyes, I thought they were a hallucination, I heard most soldiers had them when coming back home so I just hurried back inside grabbing Toby by the collar and leading him to the bedroom. But I still needed some peace of mind, so the next day I told Sarah I was going to church to talk to the pastor. When I arrived there he greeted me and told me that he was happy to see me, after that I told him about my time at war, and how I had been seeing these eyes in the dark, he told me that this was pretty common, that I had seen the sins of mankind in first hand and now I couldn’t stop seeing them, he said that I should pray, ask God to cleanse my eyes of the horrors I saw. So I did just that, I prayed every night, but it was all the same, Toby barking at the dark in the night, the eyes perpetually still, as if the person who they belonged to was a standing corpse, if it even was a person. My dear Sarah saw how mortified I was about these visions, so the next time Toby barked she went out, after coming back to bed she told me that she didn’t she any eyes, but that she could feel something lurking, she suggested that the eyes might be racoons, but they couldn't be, I don't know what they were but they were definitely not a raccoons, or any other thing that I could explain. After a while I decided to just keep Toby inside at all times and make him sleep with us… That's when I saw them again, now closer than ever, and for the first time I saw the eyes move, I saw them tilt back and forth, I was petrified I couldn't understand it, how was it so close. Then I remembered about Toby, he was laying at the feet of our bed, how could he not bark now? I waited in the dark and the eyes slowly faded away into the darkness of the room. I couldn't sleep just as I standed from the bed there I saw it, Toby’s body, gutted from the inside out, a puddle of blood all around him, I screamed in disbelief at the sight of this atrocity which woke up Sarah who also screamed, after burning Toby and telling her about how I saw the eyes in our room Sarah also started fearing whatever was haunting me, I hanged up crucifix around the house hoping this demon would stop tormenting me, we even had the pastor purify our house but it was to no use, whatever it was, it didn’t care about it all, he came back to our room the next night, however this time it spoke… with a deep in breath voice he muttered “I’m not.. A demon… you can’t get rid of me… I’m something beyond your comprehension” I had a flashlight at hand and I quickly pointed it at him… and he was right I couldn't comprehend him, his body moved in way I can't describe, his face was out of my understanding, and in his eyes I saw horrors no one has ever seen. Sarah screamed in pain, as I turned to her she had a hole in her chest, my hands tinted blood, the creature suddenly disappeared, after that night I turned myself into the police. Maybe this monster didn’t exist, maybe I did all those atrocities. But in the jail… there I saw it again, those eyes… After that I couldn't take it anymore. The things I had seen in his eyes that night were something no man was supposed to see, something that was beyond anything ever conceived, so I took my own life to end the misery.

A basic and beautiful way God has taught us how to love is through His Ten Commandments. The majority of us tend to perceive the Ten Commandments as a bunch of “dos and don’ts” for good behavior and great living. But, interestingly, these divine behavior-setting guidelines are also designed to teach us how to love.
​
For example, did you know that all ten of the commandments are about relationships:
​
1) your relationship with God, and
​
2) your relationship with people.
​
live your life with purpose, defining your purpose, make your life meaningful, the purpose of your life, finding and creating meaning of life, discover your life purpose

I know people use it a lot for bowls or spoons and the famous burnt out canoe but does anyone know the extrames of it? Because I'll find myself using it to drill holes or "saw" things a lot but I wonder how often it would be used for plaining or more complex shapes?
This is more in the realms of experimental archaeology but I'd imagine fire carving would be even more important when you have stone tools because how many calories it'd take to make something like a throw stick or complecated war club design , obviously using stone to get the finishing work done but to rough out the primary shape

Hello, making homemade refried beans for the first time. 2 part question. After the beans have been cooked either by the normal boiling or slow cooker, when it comes time to put the cooked beans in lard, or in my case bacon fat, how much bacon fat should I use? The recipe(s) I've looked up have either 2 tablespoons or a half a cup. and I was planning on using the bacon fat as a way to salt the beans. I am going to add an onion and pepper, do I add those tot he bacon fat before putting the in the beans.
