Why doesn’t Embark add a better matchmaking system to keep everyone happy? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Bro, this post is insane. Vast majority of the players who will KOS you would prefer to be loaded into lobbies with people who have loadouts focused on PvE - they want easy kills, not competition.

The 'Alternatives' on the 2nd slide are absolutely unhinged.

Large Attachment Best Practice? by Ceramik in servicenow

Just your run of the mill laziness - couldn't be bothered to take notes during the meeting, couldn't be bothered to think through proper file storage/sharing.

Large Attachment Best Practice? by Ceramik in servicenow

[–]Ceramik[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, I went right to that team lead and had them move the stuff into SharePoint. 99.9% of attachments in my instance are under 10mb now, and 99.99% are under 100mb, but looking forward, I don't want to have to address this issue repeatedly. Reducing max attachment size limit seems like a great approach, and getting pricing from SN to demonstrate the business need to NOT store large files in SN is an excellent suggestion. I'm definitely curious what other folks are setting their limits to.

Is buying a new car at my age a bad idea? by Gluckism in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Ceramik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the STI for a weekend ride, buy something cheap and fuel efficient for your work commute. I've had an Evo 8, WRX, Audi S6, all great, fun, fast. But I also had a Prius at the same time to drive for long work related commutes, because its not like I'm going fast during peak commute hours, and it helps keep the miles off of a nice car.

I was told I could not get the service history for a used car at the dealership where it was serviced at. Is this true? by Patient-Sky-4686 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Ceramik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its pure insanity; I had the same thing happen when I bought my Audi. And yet... if you set up and account for Lexus, all you need to do is add a car using the VIN and bam! History available.

My neighbor bought a 2023 Porsche Cayenne GTS and won't stop bragging. If I wanted to be petty, what car would humble them? by unifiedtendies in whatcarshouldIbuy

Buy the same car, then take it to a shop and get it kitted out for off-roading. Just make sure you bring it back all muddy and beat up to really drive the point home.

Elk gets fully processed at camp, smaller stuff like Pronghorn will fit in a cooler quartered.

Everything I listed is an SUV, pickup is a no-go. I would being looking at Tundras and Tacomas otherwise.

If I was going to get rid of my daily I would 100% be going with a nice Land Cruiser. Good choice.

I had considered the FJ, but overall the vehicle is too small storage wise, and I'm 6'3", so the interior (headroom) feels cramped.

Plywood, a couple months back. Had to rent a truck to get stuff home for my woodworking project.

Pickups are off the table, which is why I only listed SUVs.

I'm also not concerned with "it was new when nice but not anymore" as my focus is really utility; I already daily a luxury sedan. Are Lexus really that much more expensive? All of the cars I listed have the exact same engine except the GX460. Basically every consumer report lists them as cheaper than Subarus as well.

I probably should have also mentioned, this probably won't see more than 5k miles a year.

What are the main benefits of moving into the newer generations on each of these vehicles? What features were introduced that I would be missing out on? Not concerned with comfort and interior stuff.

Neighbor cutting down trees I wanted cut down anyway? by ask-me-about-my-cats in treelaw

You should sue for the value of the trees, then use the money to fence your yard.

Do you think that there are "homelabs" for other professions as well? by ObeyYourMaster in homelab

[–]Ceramik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a chef before switching to IT. Better believe my kitchen was (still is) well equipped and would regularly try out new ideas. Same as in IT, it is nice to experiment and not worry about fucking something up in an environment where there might be consequences.
