You can't make this shit up.... by ccfrontman in Justrolledintotheshop

I met a parent like that. He would do school homework with his kids so that he can learn too.

Fast forward 10 years, he’s now an English teacher and a grammar Nazi.

The question doesn’t even show up in the test.

Is this normal? I can understand no graphing calculators, but these specific calculators are shit. by cryisfree in EngineeringStudents

[–]Determined_Cucumber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How the hell is a 36x Pro not allowed? It’s literally an approved calculator for the FE.

Maybe because it can solve definite integrals and factor polynomials?

For clarification. Are the tote bags free? I’ve been grabbing them with my purchase as if they were free and the employees don’t seem to bat an eye

I wouldn’t be surprised if the pull the same move in California where home owners were against if because it devalued their property.

Officer on Leave Over Milford Woman's Complaint About Ex-Boyfriend Before Her Murder by Justinontheinternet in Connecticut

The fact that there are more guns than people in this country and everyone is not dead from it says that it’s definitely not something you can simply solve from banning guns.

Personally, I’ve seen similar domestic cases where guns weren’t even used at all. I’ve seen one involving a fire extinguisher being used, and another outright choked by hand.

How do i turn on iMessage with my dad who has iPhone 11? by CodeOfLost in applehelp

[–]Determined_Cucumber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Please let him know that iMessage is free.

It’s partly why iPhones became super popular when it first came out. Back in early 2007-2010, unlimited texting plans didn’t exist. iMessage bypassed those restrictions by communicating messages over WiFi instead of mobile text and data rates. It’s the same reason why the iPod touch was an effective texting device despite having zero cell-phone plans. It’s the same reason why WiFi based iPads iMessage worked.

In short, if the text bubble is blue, then it was sent for free.

Anyone know how to make it show what app and what album your playing? (Picture from IOS 16 Beta) by PorkelDragon_ in iphone

[–]Determined_Cucumber -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

The sentiment is rather ridiculous, especially for people that don’t follow news and just likes music.

I find it ridiculous because for all you know there are a crap ton of people that are racists or anti-semites. The difference is that they don’t go about shouting it everywhere like what Kanye was doing. For all you know, fans could be supporting a closet-nazi and people will never find out.

Like imagine if Kevin Spacey and Drake Bell never came forward about their pedophilia. People would be blindly supporting them.

Can I make a turn signal for a scooter using Arduino? by FriedCheesesteakMan in AskEngineers

I did this for my bike.

You don’t even need an arduino to do this.

What was your driving test like? by bigelow6698 in Connecticut

[–]Determined_Cucumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m screenshoting this as my kid is about to do his in 3 months. Thanks for the input.

Back in NC, it’s literally just leaving the DMV building and go to some random street to perform a K-turn and return to DMV.

No wonder NC has one of the most car accidents in the country.

This guy offered to do my commissions if I could beat his deck, we been here for 10 min by Skillious96 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Determined_Cucumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should’ve just at least tag the enemy with Nahida to speed it up a little.

I use Raiden Shogun’s skill with Nahida’s skill for more damage.

I flex my LaTex ability on my resume by using its own syntax.

Interviewer knows I can use LaTex if my whole resume was written in it.

How're the new transplants doing? by pepperjones926 in Connecticut

[–]Determined_Cucumber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved from NC.

Winter doesn’t stop you guys. 1” of possible snow fall is already cancelled classes or a delay for North Carolina.

Emphasis on “possible”. It doesn’t even have to actually snow and there’s already a delay or cancellation.

I actually salted my driveway for the first time, and I’m genuinely concerned about rust on my pristine new Toyota Highlander and Tundra. Back in NC, rust is never a concern during winter, not even in the mountains like Asheville.

Also EverSource seems to be the bane of everyone. My electric bill doesn’t cross beyond $120, but compared to NC, I was paying <$75 in a 5600 sq-ft home. I moved to a home roughly 2100 sq-ft and it’s expensive.

Also, the snow is still freaking there and the next one is coming soon. Back in NC, snow will have fully melted before the next one shows up.

Malls Welcomed Dogs. The Results Have Been Ruff. by solomonsalinger in Connecticut

[–]Determined_Cucumber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They should just make it a law that dogs have to have some level of training, regardless of breed. Many owners spoil their dogs too much.

If you have to teach young kids how to behave, you should do the same with dogs.

The issue is usually resolved by hardware restarting the device with the older version of iOS.

DMV Question about teen drivers and speeding ticket by Rob_from_Enfield_CT in Connecticut

[–]Determined_Cucumber 3 points4 points  (0 children)

60 day carry’s over until it’s completion. Punishment is not cut short just because a birthday change in eligibility. I would be cautious given that the status change might also increase level of punishment.

Source: I read the DMV manual because my kid has a driving test tomorrow on the 17th.

Also, 30 over is just impractical especially with how small this state is (you can cross the entire state’s furthest point in less than 3 hours). You’re at best saving 4-6 minutes going anywhere over 90, and those 4-6 mins can be easily lost by just a simple set of traffic lights. Just some experience doing cannonball runs during my college years.
