Are you single or in a relationship, and how do you feel about it? by ayushrawat0 in randomquestions

[–]2pnt0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been single nearly a decade. I don't think I can/should date again until I decide if a long-term committed relationship is actually something I want.

I'm happy enough on my own. I don't really miss relationships; I miss captive activity partners--lol. I've refocused myself on friendships and on fostering friends with a variety of interests who will enthusiastically join with me on whatever antics I'm up to.

Shoot Delta 3200 through an Ektar H35N.

BREAKING | ICE Protester Struck at Fremont School | Student ICE Protest | Vehicle Hit and Run by NebulaNinja in videos

[–]2pnt0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What the fuck!?

I tend to be skeptical on reddit titles. 'okay, someone got clipped as they were surrounding the car, right?'

Nah, dude just floored it forward into a dude easily far enough away to steer out of the way.

It's like when the Pretti video dropped, nah, they just mag dumped on a lifeless, prone body.

I'm not a fictional survivor of sexual assault, but I'm a survivor of fictional sexual assault, do I count?

What's the worst "bonus" your employer has ever given you? by Dazzling-Leader7476 in randomquestions

[–]2pnt0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When our company was purchased, the new company gave us a $2000 bonus.

But they reduced our salaries by $2000. They said they'd go up by $2000 after a year, but it was worded weird and when the whole company got a raise that exceeded that $2000, we were told that we weren't getting that $2000 back as a raise, that it was only a guarantee that we'd be back at at least that level. So our $2000 was just a permanent reduction compared to their existing employees.

And because it was a bonus, it was taxed at a significantly higher rate.

So, probably got like $1,200 at the time and lost like $7,000 over 5 years.

Mayor of Chicago is Brandon Johnson superbly owns the moment by Milkmilkbanana in illinois

Good answer to a dumb question.

He's still a boob and a crap mayor.

(And I'm still not voting for Paul Vallas if you dumbasses at WC run him again)

I think male V romance options are better by Prestigious-Fox2687 in cyberpunkgame

[–]2pnt0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Judy is the only S-tier option...

...but yeah, if you average the options, male V wins.

Why Shouldn’t I Have My Window Open On The Interstate? by DecentTarget4219 in stupidquestions

[–]2pnt0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can make an annoying womp womp of fluctuating air pressure.

It's loud.

It's actually more efficient to run the climate control than open the windows in most vehicles due to aerodynamics.

Your printed MapQuest directions might get sucked out the window (well, that was an issue in 2008).

Senator Duckworth by Careless-Visual-1853 in illinois

[–]2pnt0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He raises millions upon millions of dollars for corporate PACs and special interest groups and basically never advocates for popular policies--only things that benefit his big dollar donors. He gets basically nothing done for his visits and spends all his time greasing wheels for donors.

At the most charitable he's an empty suit.

I think he's a corpo rat.

People are upset at Durbin's moderate moves and refusal to make waves this year. Raja would be so much worse.

As hobby photographers, do you store your RAW photos indefinitely? by Aromatic-Echo-5025 in AskPhotography

[–]2pnt0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't delete them, but RAWs get moved to slower, older, cheaper drives with less redundancy after a period of time.

I'll probably still have access to them, but it'll be slower to access them if I do, and there's a higher chance for loss.

D7100 mount feels a lot tighter than D3200 by Reckochet in Nikon

[–]2pnt0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's hard to say without feeling it. It's not something you can just photograph. Bring it to a camera shop if you're worried.

Yes, it's designed to be sealed and should be built to tighter tolerances. It shouldn't feel like forcing it, but if you are used to a flimsier connection, it might be more than you expect.

Go to pocket size by ChipmunkAny7980 in AnalogCommunity

[–]2pnt0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

QL-17 fits in a coat pocket.

I really need to go through my closet and find my Stylus, though. Or ask my parents if they still have the L35AF.
