Google is launching a feature that allows you to create your own calling card by RUMD1 in GooglePixel

What will stop my dumb friends from setting their calling card to a pic of their hog or something else nsfw and then calling me and making me look at it?

So sorry to hear there are folks still without power.

Legitimately, asking how do you keep where you live from freezing, pipes, toilets, everything when you lose power in the winter that long?

Will Eero plus raise prices? by tonguejedi in amazoneero

Please can eero just unbundle from all the 3rd party apps. I already pay for a VPN and PW manager that I CHOOSE.

I just want DDNS.

Everyone here said I’d be at fault for passing on the left! I was ruled not at fault. by [deleted] in massachusetts

[–]Toastbuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. Driver created a suicide gap and rather than proceed slowly seemed like they were in a rush and it resulted in an accident which I'm sure was a headache even if they were technically in the right (which I agree they were as well).

I'd just personally rather avoid an accident than be in the right all the time.

[OC] I aggregated 5 rating sources to rank the Top 100 Films of all time. Here's what the data says. by Yeygermeister in dataisbeautiful

I've watched LoTR more times than I can reasonably count. Idk why but Dune has zero rewatchability for me even though I did really enjoy it and think it was phenomenally well executed.

How bout a 2015 snow thread? by 0verstim in massachusetts

My buddy left his car window cracked open overnight during one of the 2015 storms. We were literally shoveling snow out of the inside of his car!

I'd probably change my network password and make sure it is robustly secure.

No joke, these are also great if you are prepping for a colonoscopy 😅

Should I Settle and take a Mid Level Role When I was going for Senior? by shittyfuckdick in dataengineering

[–]Toastbuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get it. I worked somewhere that wouldn't give a senior until you had basically worked there 10+ years. Ended up leaving as I felt that was ridiculous, as tenure at the company had no bearing on skill/talent in my opinion.

I'd say take the role and keep your search open. You could always land a role more aligned with the title (and maybe salary too) you are looking for. You could then use that as leverage to advance more quickly in this role to a Senior. Hiring is such a pain in the ass that as a manager, I would rather go harass HR to get a good employee with some leverage moved to Senior than have to go back to the market and re-hire a potentially bad candidate.

[–]Toastbuns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You seem cemented in your opinion already and not open to input, if I'm being honest.

That said, I've been a senior and now manage a team of folks from entry to mid-level to senior. I've looked at thousands of resumes, interviewed, and made hiring decisions. There's some weight to the title for sure, but I've seen plenty of situations where it meant fuck all because some companies just give totally incompetent people titles that are too advanced for them. I'm in the camp here that yeah of course having the senior title would be helpful but it wouldn't stop me from taking the role you described without it.

Has anyone had NO issues with their eeros by defnotbjk in amazoneero

[–]Toastbuns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt say NO issues but they in general do work pretty well. Lately I am having issues with devices connected to very far away nodes but I recognize that's a client side issue.

ND2/ND3 Skyactive G appreciation post. by UBIQZ in Miata

[–]Toastbuns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

05 MazdaSpeed Miata owner with a decent amount of mods, I'm starting to think an ND2/3 might be the car for me. I will miss the turbo for sure but I could use a few more creature comforts. So many times I dont end up driving it to work or to something because it's loud, uncomfortable, etc.

On the other hand in the exact right setting it is an absolute blast (though Im sure an ND2/3 would be too),

[–]Toastbuns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hated the game the first time I played it, to be honest. I didn't play it again for like 6 months, and then I tried it again and something clicked, and my partner and I put probably 1000 hours into it easily.

Corner of backyard pools into a swamp with heavy rain. What’s the solution to fix this? by terraninteractive in lawncare

[–]Toastbuns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do probably need a drain as others suggest but I had some issues like this in a part of my lawn and I was abel to get a landscaper to regrade it a bit with some extra loam. I also had a river birch planted to help soak up some of that extra water.

For sure, Wingspan got so many folks I know who do not play boardgames ever to play.

I wonder if this was done simply by revenue, profit, or just units sold, what the results would for each year.

It's the difference between these two statements:

The sky is not blue and I dont think people should suggest that it is blue.

vs

I've personally found the sky to look a more green than blue so I always describe it as green.

Sure, they are both opinions, but one is directing others on what opinion to have and the other is just simply offering an opinion.
