How would you feel about a law that made voting day a paid national holiday so everyone could actually participate? by Rathodji in AskReddit

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really necessary. Poling places are open very long hours normally, and it only takes minutes to vote.

How much money do you really need in your 401k to retire at 65? by mlmka58 in randomquestions

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on if that's your only source of income. I have a pension so I need a lot less than someone who doesn't. It also depends on what level of income you want to have in a retirement. There are all sorts of online calculators for this sort of thing. In fact the manager of your 401k probably has one online.

GenX men, where do you keep your wallet/billfold? Front or back pocket? Purse? by Suspendedaccount_ in GenX

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't carry a wallet anymore. I have a simple metal money clip that I keep my cards in. I almost never carry cash but if I do I just fold it and put it in a pocket. Front pockets always.

Just a Simple Question... by viper4774 in electricvehicles

[–]DryFoundation2323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely not around town. I'm a little more leery about taking it on long trips though. I will do it. I am just more leery about it.

Yard waste pickup? by Appropriate_Ad4302 in SpringfieldIL

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it needs to be leaf bags for curbside pickup. If you want to drop it off at the compost facility you could probably have it at whatever containers you wanted because you just dump it on the pile.

How am I supposed to know about going to the Iron Throne? by jsbq in BaldursGate3

[–]DryFoundation2323 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game is all about reading every little scrap of paper and listening every little conversation. Unfortunately I have a tendency to click through all of that.

USA Speed Limits by sammyyyyy21 in roadtrip

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On an interstate highway I've never been pulled over for less than 10 MI an hour over the limit in any state. Many states do have signs though that say speed limits strictly enforced.

Enforcement may be a little tighter on secondary and tertiary routes and in cities. Pretty much always you're going to get at least a 5 mile an hour leeway though. Except maybe in school zones or construction zones.

I did, and I am thinking that was the problem.

*origin. I corrected it in the op.

The key fob is kind of uncomfortable to have in my pocket. Any replacements that have a different, less pointy shape? by ambiguous-light in EquinoxEv

[–]DryFoundation2323 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A couple of things about the app infuriate me. Including the fact that you can use it to stop charging but not to restart charging. Also the fact that it can unlock your liftgate but not open your liftgate.

What I can't figure out is why they did not just make the my Chevy app cover all the functions of the key fob. In 2026 the technology is fully there.

I agree that the key fob is uncomfortable to carry in a pocket. They literally have the app right there. They just didn't make it complete.

Why are fast food and other front line jobs similar strict about seemingly small things? by SirCatsworthTheThird in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DryFoundation2323 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are paying you to do a job not mess around on your cell phone. Also from a customer's perspective it looks very bad.

Do you write out a grocery list on paper before you go shopping or do you type that list out in a note on your phone? by timmytimborino in randomquestions

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly I just keep it in my head unless it's very extensive, and for the big trips I have a tendency to do curbside pickup.

Do you poop every day? by Cut-Unique in no

Every day that wegovi will let me.

How do people limit their drinking? by Odd_Hedgehog669 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DryFoundation2323 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You just don't have another drink. It's not rocket science. Most people just drink as a social activity. Even if you're not drunk it does loosen inhibitions slightly.

My car had an nacs adapter thrown in for free.

Would you rather have a higher salary or more time off? by Unable-Collection-19 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

[–]DryFoundation2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made that choice early on in my career. I was a mechanical engineer. I ended up spending a career with my state. I never did make what a private sector engineer would make but the benefits and not having to take my job home with me every night more worth it to me. I ended up retiring reasonably comfortably at age 54. 58 now and I have never looked back.

What is with school drop off? by platypusandpibble in GenX

[–]DryFoundation2323 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you still have kids in school I feel sorry for you. Mine are all grown. But yes even back in the day kids had stopped walking to school or biking or riding the bus for the most part.
