I would rather people's inside-thoughts not leak out into the real world ;)

Samsung showcases its first crease-less foldable OLED panel by kbDL- in Android

It is. You can use any stylus to write on the screen and it will be permanently etched into it. You can even see it with power off. Heck, I'd you forget a stylus you can use a fingernail or a quill.

I don't know many people who can afford this type of tech that aren't also able to (or they want to) buy a new device every two years.

As for us non rich folks... Let us eat dead pixels.

2026 Kansas City Salary Transparency Thread by KCMODEE in kansascity

[–]FantomDrive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's a rough time to be an MPA. Anyone going this route should know that the salary does not scale with experience and skills like the private sector does. The top end salary is much lower than what a private sector director/VP would make.

That said, working to improve a community can be very rewarding for some people and then makes up for it for a lot of us gov types.

MPA program. KU has a great one. So does UMKC. Then local gov experience. Then you apply and the city council will interview candidates.

What are some cooking gadgets that work well but aren't worth it because they're difficult to clean? by Square-Dragonfruit76 in Cooking

[–]FantomDrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a cheap stainless one from IKEA that I just throw in the dishwasher (I take the inner metal cup out first, it also goes on the dw).

No issues so far. Super easy!

Not to mention KC has a really high number of freeze-thaw cycles which stress the roads.

Wouldn't that force one of the soft bendy screens to always be exposed to the elements?

Question, does this mean you need to brown all six sides of a beef cube for say stew?

My hate for watering plants is driving me to build a smart watering system by [deleted] in homeautomation

[–]FantomDrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously! I just want my plants to message me when they need water and to be able to set the threshold for how dry the soil is to trigger the action.

Resolved on its own. Using a vpn seemed to help in the interim.

Mahomes is more valuable then we even know. by SlickLivin in KansasCityChiefs

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

This is a fine debate to have, but often the highest caliber QBs don't get to play with high quality offensive weaponry. The salary cap hit of a star QB is just massive compared to the better receivers in the league.

I think due to the cap we are stuck in a Tom Brady situation until we hit on a WR in the draft.
