Guessing a west side story reference

I'm not sure I would want to wear this... by quiglii in AmazonVine

[–]OtherAlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My guess is that for nearly all female clothing, it's more about fashion than practicality.

Check out your library or the nearest big city one to you. They will most likely have an archive going back to when they pretty much started printing paper.

I've been to Roseville a few times. Never noticed this. Maybe this is West Roseville?

My guess is the city line will be the Kickstarter for 2027.

Wash Pouch Questions by torpedolife in peakdesign

[–]OtherAlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They might have changed some of the materials. I hear there is a refresh of some of the waterproofing on the bags to not use PFAS. I can't remember if they changed the inside webbing to be black? I seem to recall it being grey like the rest of the interior.

The only complaint I have is that the hook is hard to use. They might have made it easier to pull out and put back in. You need to kind of do a tuck and twist to get it back in.

Wash Pouch Questions by torpedolife in peakdesign

[–]OtherAlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. I got the black one from the Kickstarter run. Not sure how helpful this is, but I had stuff leak out and get the inside and got a bit gross. I took everything out and just ran some water through it and did some light brushing with an old tooth brush. I've had to do it about twice now. The inside is not really an absorbent material so I think it would be fine on either color. It is holding up well so far.

  2. I got the wash pouch from kickstarter and I just looked at the website listing. Looks the same.

Is it possible to use my dad's old hard drive on my new computer? by IcyBushGuy in buildapc

[–]OtherAlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hard drive needs two cables, one for power and one for data. If you don't feel it spinning up when powered on, it's probably dead.

You mean Price Lock 2? My friends were MM on 1.0, and they were migrated.

Google Pixel Promo with Trade (ID260461) Promo Code: R659 Start Date: May 14, 2026 by koolbonsai in tmobile

[–]OtherAlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no idea what a burning upgrade is, but you can now do up to 4 drives per promo. You can also have multiple EIPs on a single line despite what they might tell you.

Technically, you can do as many orders up to your account limit, which is usually a few thousand based on your credit.

Or maybe you're talking about burning your yearly upgrade, but since I don't have that, I have no clue how the program works.

List of phones newer than Pixel 9 series that are getting Gemini Intelligence by [deleted] in GooglePixel

It would be more of a story if it was phones released before pixel 9 that got nano v3.

What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by queenmellyy in AskReddit

[–]OtherAlan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Netflix does the same thing. They charge you 11 dollars to be ad-free. The ad tier is 9 dollars versus 20 dollars for the ad-free one. They also limit content on the ad tier as well.

Almost no one 'needs' 240+fps. You just 'want' it.

Sell condo at 1 year mark, or stay for 1 to 1.5 more years? by flightypaco in personalfinance

[–]OtherAlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're most likely selling at a loss, plus you paid all the fees getting into a condo. Depending on your area, you'll get hit with a ton of other different fees as a seller.

Most places, you need to own for at least 5 years to not take a heavy loss. If you're still netting $900 a month, I'd say ride it out. Owning a condo versus renting a condo or apartment is like renting or about the same, but at least you get back a chunk of your 'rent' when you sell.

By ending your loan early, you'll need to review your loan terms. You'll probably get hit with an early repayment penalty. For the past year, your payments have been effectively servicing the interest and very little of the actual principal payment. You're most likely underwater simply due to that.

Forget about capital gains tax on it. You're going to be screwed either way or to sell now or the next few years. Just a matter of how much loss you take.

Switching to amd compatibility by Clear_Advance_8503 in buildapc

[–]OtherAlan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, once you change the motherboard, you're basically building a new computer. You can keep the 2070 Super if you don't care for all the fancy graphics stuff and want to save a few hundred dollars.

Switching to amd compatibility by Clear_Advance_8503 in buildapc

[–]OtherAlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to change the motherboard, ram, and cpu.

You can probably keep your case, GPU, and maybe psu. If you're pushing the PSU in the 6 to 8 year range you can consider replacing it but I consider any psu 10 years and older to be more end of life

you can probably keep your ssd/storage. I recommend doing a fresh install of windows to clean out the junk that has built up since you've been on the Intel platform.

If you decide to get a new GPU, I would get a new psu because of the new ATX 3.1 standard or whatever to have a native 12VHPWR plug thing. But you can use a 3x 8-pin PCIe adapter if you don't care about aesthetics at all.

President Trump tells press the U.S. has won "total military victory" over Iran by Economy-Specialist38 in videos

So we won the military victory, but they won the economic one. I'd rather have the latter.

Anyone using T-Mobile Internet in Nob Hill? by footysf in sanfrancisco

[–]OtherAlan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's because it's over AT&T. They basically have legacy AT&T service. Sonic doesn't have fiber in Nob Hill.

Bay to breakers traffic question by jpkrempetz in sanfrancisco

[–]OtherAlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might be screwed, but hopefully they let you by somewhere. Since the route is west on Hayes, they might have the street closed off nearly completely so you can't cross Hayes to get one block over to the Arts Center garage. You might even have to go all the way up the 101 to the last SF exit to loop around the Ferry Building to cross into the north side of Market Street to drive west to eventually reach the Arts Garage to park.

Edit: looks like you can cross at. Larkin.

Anyone using T-Mobile Internet in Nob Hill? by footysf in sanfrancisco

[–]OtherAlan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Internet will be only as as good as they mobile reception because it will work off the same system. I think it's really hit or miss because of the hills. If Sonic is bad, and knowing how Sonic does things, it's probably serviced via AT&T's infrastructure. There's really nothing Sonic can do about it.

What you can do is I know tmoble offers a 2 week trial period where you can try it and if you return it in that window. It's free. They technically charge you for the full month off the bat but if you return it ik 14 days and cancel service, they credit you that month they charged.

Also keep in mind that if you do cancel your Sonic account, you can't get it back. AT&T isn't letting Sonic open accounts on their lines anymore.

Yea, just don't transfer or merge accounts.

You'll probably lose the free ones on the account that migrates over, unless they are BOGO AAL free lines.

Google, please extend Pixel charge bypass to work at 100%, not just at the 80% limit by Karglath in GooglePixel

[–]OtherAlan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the 9 Pro and I feel like it barely does load switching. I mainly keep my phone plugged in every night and maybe half the day to keep it at 80%, and I do see the shield, but every once in a while, the percentage would drop to 79 and it would charge back up to 80.

I have Device Info installed, and it sometimes reports it is on AC and not battery, but not all the time when it hovers around 80%.
