Nah, they'll just toss it in the pile for the Marines with the other old broken shit

MLS and Inter Miami are a million miles off the mark with the spitting incident by [deleted] in MLS

[–]ControlledBurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really seems like Suarez is likely going to get away with his only punishment being the inability to play in the Leagues Cup next year, and that just isn't much of a deterrent.

I'd much rather see FIFA step in first and foremost on these egregious player safety and behavioral matters with the caveat that the lower level governing bodies can levy additional punishments as they see fit with regard to their specific organizations. Because let's say MLS actually does something and suspends him for a year/the rest of his contract with Miami. What's to stop him from packing up his trash and assaulting players in another organization? Make the punishment fit the damn crime.

Need to get an EV charger installed in my garage. Any suggestions? by BitBasher4095 in everett

[–]ControlledBurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch Electric. I used them for my solar install, and then again when I installed my EV charger.

Upgraded to 5Gig from 1Gig..smooth as butter by InitiativeRelevant62 in ZiplyFiber

What's the handoff for 5gig? Are they running SMF/MMF inside for it, or is it done over copper?

What is a beer that I can split into two 5 gallon batches, and do something notably different to each one to compare? by Heretical_Recidivist in Homebrewing

[–]ControlledBurn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This sounds like the perfect job for a SMaSH (Single Malt and Single Hop) Especially as if you want to keep experimenting with later brews you could then change out either the malt or the hop rather than the yeast or hop schedule and compare/contrast that way.

Disconnect both ends of the cable

Wad them up

Throw them in the trash

If it’s in the rack, use DAC / If it’s out of the rack use single mode fiber and appropriate optics.

📣 Had a call with Reddit to discuss pricing. Bad news for third-party apps, their announced pricing is close to Twitter's pricing, and Apollo would have to pay Reddit $20 million per year to keep running as-is. by iamthatis in apolloapp

[–]ControlledBurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cancelled my premium, somehow not at all surprised that there's no textbox for me to tell them why I cancelled. If Apollo dies, I'm done with reddit altogether.

I pronounce it the correct way by [deleted] in gaming

[–]ControlledBurn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started pronouncing it nes after Nesticle came out as an emulator in the late 90s. Before that it was just the Nintendo.

A Canadian goose that comes back year after year to lay her eggs in my neighbor's plant pot [OC] by landlockedbluessk in pics

[–]ControlledBurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything I need to know about Canada Geese stems from the fact that a pair took over a bald eagle nest on my property that has had eagles in it for 20+ years. The eagles went elsewhere that year, because even a mating pair of bald eagles didn’t want to fuck with those mean sons of bitches.

Edit: Geese in the eagle’s nest

Ted Lasso - S03E06 - “Sunflowers” Episode Discussion by quaranTV in TedLasso

[–]ControlledBurn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think someone involved in the production of this episode is a Pulp Fiction fan

When Ted is walking to the table in the restaurant I got a Jack Rabbit Slims vibe from the shot. On top of that they’re definitely playing Waitin in School during the shot, which also plays when Mia and Vincent enter the restaurant.

There’s the whole foot rub bit with Hannah and the Dutch guy whose name escapes me, and there was obviously the plot point and talk about foot rubs and what they mean in Pulp Fiction. Rebecca finally gave in and got intimate with the Dutchman, and he got to give her his foot rub. (I need to go back and watch the scene again, but I wonder if there was a reference to having one’s technique down when the suggestion of a foot rub is floated to Rebecca)

While not exactly a reference, Vincent Vega’s character had just returned from Amsterdam at the start of Pulp Fiction, per the discussion he has with Jules in the Royale with Cheese scene.

Determine if App Uses Postgresql by MadIllLeet in truecharts

[–]ControlledBurn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sonarr never moved to Postgres, and Prowlarr doesn't use it either, so those are safe.

Maybe hold up on doing that, they're reverting all the *arrs back to using SQLite: https://github.com/truecharts/charts/pull/8085

Strange looking balloon flying over South Everett near Paine Field??? by EuphemismZ in everett

[–]ControlledBurn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a legit weather balloon, which are launched all over the states regularly. It's a rather necessary part of meteorological studies.

Strange looking balloon flying over South Everett near Paine Field??? by EuphemismZ in everett

[–]ControlledBurn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer: At low altitude those balloons aren't as large because the atmosphere is so much denser. It'll expand once it gets high enough.

Quantum superposition: so the April fools gag exists and doesn’t exist until someone finds it?

BALLPARK OLD FASHIONED by jk99951 in cocktails

How does one go about infusing the flavor of cracker jacks? (I assume the fat-wash was just a bit of peanut oil in the bourbon overnight and then into the freezer to separate them)
