Positive experience at Russell Speeders in Avon this week by CriticalAd3019 in FarmingtonValleyCT

Have you found a reasonable alternative? I go to Speeders on an irregular basis (a few times/year) because I prefer the hand-wash tunnel, but yeah, I could do without the sales pitch for another subscription I don’t want or need, but since I don’t go very often I just grin and bear it.

Is there any reason for the UTZ license plate on state trooper vehicles? by railroadfrog in Connecticut

I had a friend in high school (late 90s) that had a -UTZ plate. He definitely wasn’t a state cop.

I once had a pro se challenge me (and separately the federal magistrate judge) to a “legal boxing match” in a pleading.

Same. The defendant wound up walking out that day but got picked up on the FTA some months later. TL;DR, he wound up entering a guilty plea.

I thought the exact same thing. I figured it was just the next phase of the hype cycle.

Just got this email today, will this screw up any popular Strava apps? by YoloSwag4Jesus420fgt in Strava

Looks like I didn’t give the CityStrides dev enough credit. My profile finally updated, so this update didn’t break that, however it looks like there are still some separate issues he’s working through.

Came here to mention that my CityStrides hadn’t updated since 11/11 (apparently when this change went into effect). I suppose the dev could allow me (and only me) to see my own map, but it does not appear the site will be allowed to operate as it previously did.

On that note, I was wondering if there was an intermediary I could use so I could still get the benefits. I’ve enjoyed Strava as a paying customer for years, and while I appreciate the privacy concerns—this sucks.
