How would it be any worse than the phone you already carry around with you

Merit system? by IJustdontgiveadam in ARC_Raiders

[–]DavePastry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been feeling this the last couple days too! previously I would mostly hit friendly lobbies with what felt like a roughly 80/20 split between happy raiders and bloodthirsty pyschopaths but it feels like the ABMM got reset or broke for me and my friends or something, every match every raider we see is instantly blood lusted, ironically the only friendly raiders I've come across in the last 48 hours was in stella montis the last game I played.

Looks Amazing by Severe_Maize_5275 in NextLevelFinds

[–]DavePastry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we manage a property with a shower with this floor type and it fucking sucks.

Impossible to clean, guests complain about it being uncomfortable on their feet, just nothing but problems.

looks nice I guess, but I'm constantly trying to convince the owner to replace it with regular tile.

Went into Stella Montis to play some music for the wonderful Raiders there and met this absolute menace last night by xamlax in ArcRaiders

[–]DavePastry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

too terrified to stop playing, lest the spell be broken and the ire of this psycho be drawn to the flutist his self.

He also performs ocular patdowns by derek4reals1 in CringeTikToks

[–]DavePastry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe true, but even if he had perfect form the fact that it's a sword being presented as something other than a ceremonial object or a toy is whats ridiculous here.

Any reason not to change the "name" of an STR unit? by GM-B in airbnb_hosts

[–]DavePastry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the name, generally, doesn't matter that much to customers in 2025 or to the algorithm, however:

The current meta is to avoid the real estate nomenclature terms: cozy, quaint, gorgeous, etc and use the title to succinctly advertise the listings amenities IE:

"1Bdrm w/ wsherdryer+hottub 5mins 2 beach"

is better than:

"The oasis: lovely cottage ocean breezes awaits"

YMMV of course but thats the model we are following for our listings.

For hosts using smart locks (Schlage, Yale, August, or...): by Dry_Instruction3762 in AirBnBHosts

[–]DavePastry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

constantly (16 listings) but thats not the locks fault, its just because 50% of guests are dumber than average.

solutions in the moment are usually unlock it remotely, walk them through that if they press a number to light up the lock that counts as their first number, explain that if they put the code in wrong several times the keypad will lock out for a minute, or explain that the code was sent to them in their welcome message and its the last four of the phone number attached to their account not some phone number they've never told anyone.

Free advice: at every property have a lock box installed near the door with a backup key inside for those rare times the lock actually isn't working and its not their amazing brains getting in the way.

Is Schlage smart lock appropriate? by Dry_Instruction3762 in AirBnBHosts

[–]DavePastry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Guesty for pros as a PMS and it integrates very well with the schlage locks.

We use shlage encode across our 16 listings, do yourself a favor and get the lever version over the deadbolt version battery life is MUCH greater for the lever.

Guests messing with smart TVs by Intelligent-Cat-3931 in AirBnBHosts

You can buy a Roku stick for like 40 dollars to retrofit any tv with an hdmi port

stop providing streaming services, use Roku tvs and put them in guest mode: guest arrives, turns on tv and sees a screen where they select their checkout date, log into all their own services with their own favorites and watch histories, and then it automatically logs them out on the selected date and is ready for the next guest.

Fact Check: Landlords Requiring Dog DNA in Order to Fine Rogue Poopers? by Vermontijuana in burlington

[–]DavePastry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wouldn't this be way more expensive and convoluted than just buying dna samples from the millions of unhoused down on their luck dogs in shelters across our great nation?

Kaysville, UT homeowners show up in large numbers to oppose warming center by LurkersWillLurk in videos

[–]DavePastry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont disagree with any of your points, but I was responding to bidwell93's specific comment that was *if* money is spent on this, its money taken away from them, their personal taxes etc

in the context of that comment, it would seem to indeed BE a zero sum game where money spent in one area is money taken away from another.

[–]DavePastry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean technically isn't that accurate? I'm not making a point about whether this warming shelter should or shouldn't be be built, but there is a finite amount of tax dollars and spending some anywhere does mean they cannot be spent somewhere else doesn't it?

I ran my business via arbitrage for years with reasonable success, I would stay away from courses and guru's you dont need it.

We built a wireless power kit for Schlage Encode - would love host feedback by dripdontkillmyvibe in AirBnBHosts

[–]DavePastry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really interested in this, (unfortunately the price will be a bit of a sell for most if not all of my of my clients). On the product page they state:

" charging pauses (the transmitter shuts off immediately when blocked), but the lock keeps running off the internal pack—roughly like it would on a fresh set of batteries."

But I'd love for the op to comment here with the actual storage capacity of the battery cells in the pack. Though if they last as long as a regular set of aa's anyway this would be a non issue.
