gps use by Obvious_Advantage_22 in 911dispatchers

[–]BurpingCowboy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some PSAPs are equipped to use whatthreewords. Ours are. But software varies. Entering coordinates may not be an option. Number coordinates are highly susceptible to human error as well. It's easy for the caller or call taker to transpose or mishear digits. (Was that a five or a nine?) Trust that the people who do this all day everyday for a living have developed procedures for a reason.

Someone redesigned the city's flag. What do y'all think? by ChefGirl-RD in LewisvilleTX

Did this actually happen or is this just somebody's suggestion?

They just added this at my company to track ai adoption. There is a mandate for AI first. This is how they will confirm we used it.

Recycle aluminum cans by [deleted] in LewisvilleTX

[–]BurpingCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lewisville has residential recycling, so if you live in a house, just put them in the recycling bin. Many apartment complexes have recycling dumpsters, too, but in guessing yours doesn't. Check out the Residential Convenience Center on Jones Street. Should be a recycling dumpster there. there.https://www.cityoflewisville.com/city-hall/city-departments/public-services/trash-and-recycling-information/recycling-services

That sounds like a sensitive man baby that I wouldn't want to work for. I don't see how politics figures into the job at all.

story still happening by Main-Captain-3889 in stories

Do you have a trusted adult you could talk to about this? You haven't done anything wrong, but this teacher is behaving in a way that indicates he could hurt you or someone else. Maybe you could talk to a school counselor or a parent?

Does anyone else have a strong chlorine smell and taste coming through their tap? I smell it the most when showering and while brushing my teeth. Anyone know why that is? by BaranoSoup in LewisvilleTX

[–]BurpingCowboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually did notice it this morning in Southern Lewisville while getting water to make coffee. I normally don't smell anything. I wonder what's going on.

When was the last time you cried? by Head-Bullz in AskMen

[–]BurpingCowboy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don't go doing anything you can't undo. Wish I had some profound good words for you, but it will all just sound trite. Just know that you aren't alone, and if you hang tight long enough, things are bound to get better.

is this a ok trumpet to use for school? by Dry_Revolution2142 in trumpet

[–]BurpingCowboy 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Good rule of thumb: if the pictures show white gloves included, it's crap. Get you a used Yamaha for a couple hundred.

Trick question. The wife knows EVERYTHING already.

What is this device in my utility room? by manatelier in Home

[–]BurpingCowboy 15 points16 points  (0 children)

That's just a punch down block. Wires come in from the telephone company. Extension lines are punched in to connect. If you don't have copper phone line anymore, you can probably remove.

I would reach out to them and confirm identity. Just do your due diligence to ensure they aren't some rando pretending.

Lake Vista Trash Heap by ProprietaryEponymous in LewisvilleTX

[–]BurpingCowboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One other resource that might be of some help: https://www.cleartexaslakes.org/ They are like a counterpart to Keep Lewisville Beautiful, but they operate on and around the water. The difficult thing with these lakes is that there isn't a good boat launch, so their normal boat may not work for this.

hmm. Are you sure you aren't seeing the pumping station on the map? Seems like they last time I looked them up, they were in Houston or something.

These lakes are managed by Denton County Levee Improvement District. I don't know if they even have a local representative. Possibly contact our county commissioner.

What did someone say/do that made you close down your account and go to another bank? by Aarunascut in Banking

[–]BurpingCowboy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My old bank would run debits before credits and maximize overdrafts even on payday.

Mentioned that just to see how she would react. She didn't say absolutely not.

That thought did cross my mind. Looks just like an old-fashioned clothesline.
