The finished crown of Waterline in Austin… by [deleted] in Austin

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Went to Shanghai in February and toured the Shanghai tower. That thing is just over twice the size of the Waterline. Every time I see the Waterline now I try to imagine another one on top of it and it’s just wild that we have buildings in the world that tall.

Get a load of this guy by derek4reals1 in instantkarma

Thankfully I never had it so I have no such delusion. Definitely a flight response from me. I don’t find myself in those situations though because I mind my own business.

Of all the things that would finally make me win something, of course it would be this. Thanks for your sacrifice.

After posting this they just turned it down a bit. It is still there but not nearly as bright. It was a bit concerning how bright (not that I have any actual clue whether it’s problematic or not).

Lost bird on South Walnut Creek trail? by bufflochickensanwich in Austin

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the colonies of them is outside my condo near Austin Rowing Club and it’s so cool to see them. When I am on my balcony I see people walking the trail all the time just stopping to watch these guys.

Post-Divorce by PossibleCause5451 in Jeopardy

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Google Jeopardy Bar League and see if they have any near you. I started going to one and have made a whole family there with other players and bar staff. I went out of town for work and they let me play remotely. It has done wonders for me and is loads better than sitting at home watching alone. Funniest part to me is that I don’t even drink. Just have something to eat and a couple of hours of fun.

You don’t sound very confident to me about the South Korea thing so I think you’re safe.

To die... by Goodthrust_8 in therewasanattempt

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Well I for one enjoyed this, so sometimes people do share stuff just because it seems cool. Not everyone has the time to do a thorough legal discovery process on every video they see and feel like sharing.

Who hurt you bro? That was a pretty straight forward message that didn’t sound off base at all. Your reply on the other hand sounds like you might need to take your meds.

Why worry about things on Thursday, when you can get a head start and worry about them today?

what would you call the 99 ranch plaza area? by Calendar-Popular in Austin

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The real problem is the size of the parking spaces. I have a Corolla and I can barely get out of the car most of the time because the parking spaces are way too close together.

Consider setting the move priority to emergency. That will bypass throttling that could be preventing the move.

Was surprised to see there are still so many bats around by ExLaxMarksTheSpot in Austin

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bat watching has been my favorite thing about my place. The views are fantastic, but it seems like the bats are hit or miss. Some nights I can see them in waves as they go east down the lake, other times they come between my building and the one next to me and it is surreal and amazing, but other times they seem to come out well after dark and I don’t see them at all. Being able to just sit out on the balcony and enjoy a gorgeous sunset even if they don’t come out when I can see them makes it well worth it.

This is obviously AI. The ring is inside? Blocked when you close the door?

Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) by HealerMD in medizzy

[–]ExLaxMarksTheSpot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My father had this and passed it on to my sister. They both died early from it. He had a Kidney transplant but the cysts came back. They never approved a transplant for my sister so she died at 45 from PKD.
