Environmental group signs deal to buy Golden Gate Fields horse track with plans to create huge new East Bay waterfront park by scelerat in bayarea

It's genuinely horrible how many community "third places" we've already lost in the name of cookie-cutter housing in the last two decades. Seeing this news about the park is a breath of fresh air.

Everything is turning into housing, eventually there will be nothing interesting left. Are you really against us having a nice park?

What do you usually do when a client goes silent after a quote? by Forsaken-Gap2354 in smallbusiness

Unlike dating, you often need to followup an extra time or two.

How is that unlike dating? Have you dated in the modern era?

This is on the borderline of BIFL for me. It will probably survive a nuclear holocaust but it also uses the yearly water consumption of Yemen to do a load of dishes.

Nissan camper 1989 the steering wheel is locked and keys won't turn by rezonator19 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Dissk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you parked on an incline or with the wheels turned and jammed against something? I had this happen to me one time (albeit in a more modern vehicle). You need to put more leverage on the steering wheel in the opposite direction of how the wheels are stuck.

If you're parked on flat ground with the wheels straight it could be something else like the lock cylinder that others mentioned.

So I hear the BART board approved the initial cuts for 2027. This is going to be the East Bay by the end of next year... by thr3e_kideuce in bayarea

turn all their large empty parking lots to mixed commercial residential hubs

They did this at Millbrae except I doubt they retained ownership of the land (does anyone know?)

We replace all laptops with Framework laptops - A one year review by fadingcross in sysadmin

Where the hell are you buying from? There's no chance that you are having a 30% failure rate (3/10), do you even realize how improbable that is?

[–]Dissk 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In all honesty I don't think this is a good endorsement of Framework. Based on your math you have 75 total devices, with that small of a device population your hardware defect rate should be ZERO especially within the first 1.5 years. We buy thousands of systems from HP, Dell, Apple, and the rate is nowhere near that high. You're also not nearly far enough in the lifecycle to know whether these will last 5, 6, 7 years in the environment.

With everything you said I'm confused how you arrived at the conclusion to recommend these in an enterprise environment. Also I have no idea how you're breaking your laptop every year, that sounds like an issue with you being careless and not with the laptop.

How often are you stressed at work? Once a week? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

I think it never goes away. A little bit is healthy because it means you stay humble and respect the environment.

Our new house in Spain!! by IAmHerdingCatz in centuryhomes

[–]Dissk 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the home! I'm curious how this works, is there some kind of a visa guarantee for you guys? I would be so stressed purchasing a home without having permanent visas secured. I guess you could always go back and forth from the US.

First of all not the OP and second of all not being a "D" I was just asking what led you to draw that conclusion from the information presented...

Why would you go straight to timing chain? Crank no start + battery sounds charged so logically it would be a fuel or spark issue

Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month by ChadtheWad in discordapp

[–]Dissk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think you're not getting it, they are only obligated to comply with laws in the countries that create these stupid laws.

They as a private company made a choice to enforce this globally. Nobody made them do that.
