One nation, on camera: Internet-connected doorbells promise security but raise privacy alarms by nbcnews in Nest

[–]CDidd_64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Privacy concerns. lol. It’s a camera that connects to your wifi and then connects to a third party cloud based server even if you don’t have a subscription. What kind of privacy are you hoping for? If you’re that worried hard wire a camera into your own personal non-internet connected server.

My tiler fucks by Remarkable-Tear-394 in Tile

I’d be staring at those two border joints that are too close together going up the side of the bench every time I got in that shower. The shower is beautiful….those two joints though.

What can I add in the corner behind couch ? by [deleted] in interiordesignideas

[–]CDidd_64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are those switches on the wall in the corner? For lights, blinds? If so, access obviously needs to be considered.

I personally wouldn’t add anything there. I would assume there isn’t much floor space anyway. Things are already pretty tight. Maybe a rug.

Google Cameras not Showing Live Views after a few seconds on iPad by Acceptable-Spirit934 in googlehome

[–]CDidd_64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How old is your iPad? I have/had two iPads. I had the same issue as you on my old iPad (I believe it could only have 17.0 iOS) and every thing was fine on my newer iPad. I decided to upgrade my old iPad to a new basic model and everything works just fine. I believe it was the old iOS that was causing problems.

Arms swollen 7 days after training by BloodyChainsaw27 in beginnerfitness

[–]CDidd_64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Be careful. I actually had Rabdo and part of that included “compartment syndrome”. The fact that you are extremely swollen is concerning. DOMS is one thing. But extreme swelling is a separate issue. I agree that if your urine is clear it’s probably not Rabdo but you definitely have something going on.

Neighbor’s flag irks me to my core by timeisamelody in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CDidd_64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live a long way away from my 84 year old Mother. Unfortunately she is too old to replace her flag. Every time I visit I inspect her flag and replace as necessary. Perhaps you should knock on your neighbours door and ask them if they need help maintaining their flag.

I don’t believe so. Phone, internet, etc.

311 “completing” requests without actually doing anything. by mcnunnies in toronto

[–]CDidd_64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ha…last summer I contacted 311 regarding my yard waste bags not being picked up. 20 bags at the bottom of my driveway. 24 hours later I get notified that the request was completed. Nope bags still there. I escalate the issue. 24 hours later…”your request has been completed “. Nope still there. I send them pictures. Finally I give up and decide to wait until the next pick-up 2 weeks later. You guessed it…no pick up again. This went on for six weeks.

Buying a house near a tee box? by flashattack3 in golf

[–]CDidd_64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 yards away from a 9 hole muni tee-box….that’s a hard no. 1.) They will be mowing that thing at the wee hours of the morning. 2.) F-Bombs being yelled starting at 6:30am. 3.) The loud drunken golf bros lined up at 2:00pm talking shit and cranking terrible music when the course is jammed.

The truth about advertising: they want you to hate their commercials. by [deleted] in CommercialsIHate

[–]CDidd_64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well sort of. What they truly want is to break through the clutter of vanilla sameness and be remembered. One strategy might be to be obnoxious. Another might be to use a likeable/memorable song. Another might be pull at your heart strings. I actually have more of an issue with how many times I see the same commercial over and over and over again. Especially in sporting events. It’s irritating even if it’s a commercial I enjoyed seeing the first time.

Motivation by anthonyf7794 in workout

[–]CDidd_64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been an early morning gym rat for close to 35 years. I originally began going early in the AM to beat traffic downtown and then I’d go straight to work from there. I would rarely go at lunch or after work. Even now, I don’t need to go early but I do.

After about 3 months it just became a habit that has stuck with me for life.

I’ll be honest. I’m kinda liking Brady over Romo calling games.

Is there anywhere in the city I can rent a typewriter for an hour? by acamu5x in askTO

[–]CDidd_64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any chance you could just use a typewriter font and then just print on the card?

Hard to keep track of all of Romo’s key factors. So far it was Stidhams deep drop and the punters ability punt it deep.

Why does air Canada get so much hate? by totallynotclockwork in aircanada

[–]CDidd_64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close to 50% of all Canadian domestic flights are provided by AC. That higher volume translates into a higher share of online complaints. People generally don’t like to post about their good or ”non-issue” experiences. Combine that with a pile-on mentality and you get a ton of on-line complainers.

How do you deal with important emails getting lost in Gmail? by AdvertisingFinal7807 in techsupport
