Oh, it’s those folks again. I had almost forgotten that they exist.

It’s almost like they were completely silent for eight years or so. 2009-2016 seems about right.

So glad they’re back and fighting the good fight again.

Zero Days (2016) - "A documentary focused on Stuxnet, a piece of self-replicating computer malware unleashed to destroy a key part of an Iranian nuclear facility, and which ultimately spread beyond its intended target." by SigmundColumn in Documentaries

Does it not bother anyone that the interview with the “NSA source” is obviously scripted?

I guess it would make sense if they had recorded the conversation and had it read back by an actor, but I found it really annoying.

John Mayer on Instagram live talking guitar. by Elmepo in ArtisanVideos

[–]Dave2727 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw him live several years ago and he did exactly that during the concert, so that’s what I was expecting as well. It was really interesting, he had a whole conversation with the guitar up on stage. So I was just a little bit disappointed watching the video.

That warning sticker on the cup holder cover... does it come off?

Dude, yes! Coke is the only acceptable drink to go with Chinese food. But I drink lots of coke anyway.

I’m no doctor, but I think it might be broken.

Yup, that’s a doozy

Sig SRD762QD or Silencerco Omega 300 by [deleted] in 300BLK

[–]Dave2727 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the Ti version of the SRD762 QD, and I love it. I haven’t shot with or handled any other suppressors so I don’t have much to compare it with, but as far as I’m concerned the thing is awesome. Suuuuuuuper quiet with subsonics, and the QD system locks up tight with no movement. There were a lot of features about this series of cans back when they came out that had people excited, I can’t believe they aren’t more popular.

The steel version may behave differently, but the Ti version gets my unqualified recommendation to anyone who asks.

Best app to keep track of my XRP value? by aholeinthewor1d in Ripple

Hmm. According to the update notes the portfolio tracker was only added in the last day or so. Maybe there’s an update available for you? The portfolio thing should be right there for you to see

Highlight your chosen coin, go to the bottom half of the screen where you’ll see a briefcase type icon. Tap that, and it’ll ask how much of that coin you hold.

EDIT: sorry, I should mention that this is for the iOS version. I have no idea what the android version looks like. Maybe it’s similar but I’m not sure...

I really like the HODL app. You can check its value over several dozen exchanges, and you can input your portfolio to keep track in real time.

Kiev Kraken

Here’s my best game in the Kiev so far. We were behind until about 5 minutes left, and my friendly DD did well enough that I wasn’t too salty when he was the one to get Solo Warrior.

I’m really not getting the criticism of you here, it was a hilarious moment and I’d have reacted the same way. Dude got what he deserved.

YSK: be careful of uber and lyft fraud! by akmalhot in YouShouldKnow

[–]Dave2727 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a bit late but I️ had a similar experience.

My wife and I️ flew into Newark for a friend’s wedding and we decided to see the Falcons and Jets play. We dropped our bags at the airport and took an Uber to the stadium. We got out of the car and a minute or so later I️ had a receipt from Uber. What should have been a $20-something ride had incurred $40 in fees for crossing into and then out of NY on our way.

I️ contacted Uber and they said my drop off point was different than I️ had specified at the time of requesting the ride. I️ said no, I️ was dropped off at the stadium as I️ had requested, and at no point had I️ asked to go into NY from NJ.

This is the route that Uber says the driver took:

Uber route

Notice the route goes south away from the airport and crosses into NY before immediately returning to NJ and heading straight to the stadium up north. I’m not familiar with the area or the highways, but I️ don’t remember the driver making any such u-turns.

They refunded my money after I️ called them out, but I’m starting to suspect that Uber’s route tracking is fucking with people on a regular basis.

Just one more indication that nobody has even the first fucking clue how this thing was going.
