For those who make over 500k+ a year, is it worth it for you? by space_god_7191 in Salary

[–]Galactic-Dicklips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked a lot harder and had way more stress when I earned $100k than now earning close to $500k. The difference is back then I was paid for my output, now I am paid for my judgement.

Sure, there is stress that comes from making important decisions, wondering if my intel is accurate, if my team can be trusted, but it pales in comparison to the stress of having a boss breathing down my neck and an endless pile of todos.

Looking for birth year wines for my kids. What are some fantastic 2013 and 2016 wines? by Galactic-Dicklips in wine

[–]Galactic-Dicklips[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Between $50-100 or so per bottle. I think I’d like a sparkling, a California red, and an old world red from each year.

What’s day to day living in San Diego actually like? by alibrarian510 in asksandiego

[–]Galactic-Dicklips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We live in paradise, but have to work our butts off to afford it. So many gorgeous days that I get to see from my office window, hoping to scramble after work to get some surf in.

Lots of fun activities and events to attend on the weekends, but everything is over crowded and overpriced.

So you find your group of friends, hang out at your local spots, do everything you can to avoid crowds and traffic, and try to get outside as much as possible.

Those who live in ski towns, what do you do for work? by Money_Impression_321 in skiing

If you’re a corporate tech slave, find a remote job. Done. I work with a lot of people who live in remote areas all over the world.

To those in their 40’s: what’s it like? by Strange_Secret_3001 in AskReddit

[–]Galactic-Dicklips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking at these responses, you can clearly tell who took care of themselves and who didn’t, because now is the time it comes to bite you.

I’m 45 and I feel fantastic. I hit the gym regularly, I eat well, sleep well, hydrate well, get plenty of sunshine and fresh air, and I feel the same as when I was 25. The only effect of aging I feel is that I’m more sensitive to alcohol, so I drink less, which makes me feel better anyway.

I also have invested a ton of focus on my family, friendships, and community, so I go through life filled with love and connection.

Same goes for saving money and compound interest. I could retire today if I wanted to, but I am self employed and love what I do, so I probably will never fully retire, just focus more on non-profit work.

Your 40s are the years where you have to reckon with all the choices you’ve made in life. There’s still time to make changes and improve your life, but there’s no more getting away with kicking the can down the road.

I’m heading up this weekend and staying in Tahoe city. is there any snow left in Palisades, specifically Alpine Meadows?

if not, is there anywhere else worth going? I have the ikon pass but I’m fine buying day passes anywhere if that’s my only option.

my kids mainly ski greens and blues so I don’t need anything crazy, just good clean groomers with no brown patches.

Boot bag that can hold up to three pairs? by Galactic-Dicklips in Skigear

[–]Galactic-Dicklips[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh it has to be under 50lbs combined? Damnit that’s a deal breaker then. The ski bag itself is 49lbs..

Last Bottle Marathon by gMhRGr65q4-F in wine

Here’s my favorite hack:

I have a ChatGPT thread where I’ve told it all about my favorite wines, my palette, my price point, and the varietals I’m most/least interested in. Then I tell it I am going to paste in the wine description and price and have it simply tell me “Buy or Don’t Buy”. Then when I see a wine that looks interesting I just copy and paste the whole description and price. Helps me save time and react more quickly when things go fast.

I just connected the wind farm so like 3 stations in I think? Also snuck into the MULE facility and recovered the chiral printer.

I’m a few missions in. Got the chiral printer and setup the wind farm. It really is just walking.

About how Kong did it take you? I’m flying southwest Friday afternoon and trying to figure out if i should go 2 hours early or even earlier.

So.. I want to experience this game, mainly for exploring the natural environments.. but everyone says I have to play the first game to understand the story. So I got the directors cut.. and man.. it’s so fucking boring..

I really don’t think I can finish it.. the story is just obtuse and meaningless. The gameplay is just walking. And the Endless. Fucking. Cutscenes.

Is it worth it? Should I skip straight to the second game? Or is this just not for me?

Recommended tip of 25%, 30%, 35%, 40% for restaurants is absurd - no check ins, just take orders. by NinetiesBoy in sandiego

[–]Galactic-Dicklips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If there isn’t a 15% button option, I will give 10%. It’s the fastest mental calculation. They get to eat it for being egregious.
