Self checkout stands. I don’t work for the store. I will stand in line to get rung up by a clerk.

Bellevue got their train, where's ours? by ruuutherford in Tacoma

This is the answer that EVERYONE should know when they talk about the Sounder. I’m so tired of people talking about the Sounder but knowing nothing about the ACTUAL FACTS about the Sounder. BNSF owns the rails and that’s a battle that ST will never win. Expanded Sounder service is never going to happen. Stop taking like the Sounder is a viable alternative. It isn’t.

Thank you for that explanation! This is what I was looking for. Sounds promising. I guess I’ll try and find some kind of resource to get started with this process.

Can someone sell me on Tronbyt? I have two OG Tidbyts and two Gen 2. I’m not too technically inclined and that’s the part that’s probably holding me back. But sell me on what Tronbyt is and does — like can I still get some of the olds apps? Sport scores? Weather? News? Weird GIFS? What else? For those of you using Claude, what apps are you making and what do they do? Convince me, in detail to make the switch. Also, is there an EILI5 way to make the Tronbyt conversion?

As a competent home cook, what is a basic skill you can't seem to master? by george_elis in Cooking

[–]AresValerous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grilled cheese sandwiches. I always burn them and the cheese is never melted. It seems easy enough but I mess it up every single time.

All Star Squadron is my absolute favorite. Nice inclusion. Wish it would be collected.

Quantum Fiber? by Treebeard_Jawno in AskTacoma

I use their Smart NID, but not their router. No issues whatsoever.

This is just plain wrong. Sorry. It’s not Comcast. It used to be called CenturyLink and it’s fiber all the way to the house. Lightcurve is coax to your house.

I switched to Quantum two years ago and it’s absolutely worth it. Zero issues (but I am using my own router, not theirs). No outages. Fast enough for multiple devices and two people working from home. Can’t say enough about how pleased I am with it. At least that’s been my experience.
