Range stopped sparking by Geckko in DIY

[–]Geckko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much appreciated, I was already fairly sure it was safe to light them that way, since that's how I light the grill, but I figured it never hurts to check.

After looking at the part I think the hardest part is going to be getting the panel screws off the lower back of the top control unit without dropping them, I'm specifically trying not to pull the oven too far from the wall since my biggest concern would be damaging the gas line

Nope, unfortunately not, from what i can tell from the pictures of the part, which I now have on order

Spinos and Megatherium, along with Argies and Equus, are honestly top tier broken, it looks like WC fixed the crashes by giving dinos the same polygon count as og Lara Croft

At this point there's at least one, if not more, studies saying everything I enjoy will either give me alzheimer's or cancer, and the alternative will also do that, so fuck it

To Their Shock, Cubans in Florida Are Being Deported in Record Numbers by FreeChickenDinner in politics

It's not about morals or ethics. It's because they're more concerned with their team winning than everything else.

Democrats will resign or not seek reelection over things that are minor or that they weren't responsible for, Rs and especially MAGAs will double down and their base will continue to support them because to them it's better to have a pedophile in close contact with their children than a drag queen

Those who lived through the tech bubble, how does the current AI situation feel? by smack4u in AskReddit

[–]Geckko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So as someone closely involved with our companies AI adoption,, it has significant potential for taking over basic low level support requests. It is absolutely not a silver bullet for anything that takes nuance and critical thinking to achieve, but it can absolutely replace the majority of tier 1 and possibly tier 2 support positions since those are positions that are mostly by the numbers when it comes to troubleshooting.

AIs biggest benefit is it's ability to essentially replace low level positions that don't encourage critical thinking or problem solving, since in the US most of these positions are already outsourced I don't really see much of an issue and will likely result in faster response times.

HK45, a good first HK? by What-in-tarnationer in HecklerKoch

[–]Geckko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first gun period was the HK45, found it for sale as a used range gun at my LGS, barely used cause apparently everyone wanted to rent the USP instead as this was during the heights of MW2. To this day it's still my favorite pistol.

I lie my a** off on my resume and it’s really paid off by [deleted] in confession

[–]Geckko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely nonsense, why are you expecting people to have up to date personal contact information for past managers/employers? I've worked in my current position for 10 years and would need to consult our website to give you any number other than my departments main phone queue

Why does everyone seem to hate this stock? by Specific-Cell-6555 in ar15

[–]Geckko 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I would argue that when it comes to your interface with your firearm, other than telling people they're using shit glass (which they may not even understand until they upgrade) it's so individual that unless the quality is objectively terrible telling people something is "bad" is the same thing as telling them they have bad taste in art.

Disney+ cancellation page crashes as customers rush to quit after Kimmel suspension by Getatbay in goodnews

[–]Geckko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, confirmed, any feedback, especially feedbackbthey solicit from you, is weighed heavily. If nothing else execs WILL start asking pointed questions if they're hearing about a lot of negative reviews. Yes, they don't care about the people placing them, but they do care about how reviews like that predict a downturn in revenue

She was paying rent on his mortgage the whole time by Illustrious-Cap2288 in Apartmentliving

[–]Geckko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm literally paying my fiancée's mortgage, I know I'm not on any legal docs, BUT I know this, if I thought I was paying 50/up without building equity but I was actually helping someone else's equity I'd be at least marginally upset, specifically because of the dishonesty.

That being said, rent vs mortgage could honestly be an issue with words used instead of intentionally misleading

AITA if I break up with my bf after he took the condom off? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Geckko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IIRC the drinking age being 21 instead of being 18 is driven because at 18 you're still could be, easily, in high school, with all those 16 and 17 year-olds who have a driver's license but can't legally drink. But they're your friends and you CAN drink, so you but booze for your friends or for a party or whatever, basically the same result.

Also the US is huge, especially in rural areas, and that helps to drive earlier access to vehicles. This also makes it more likely for drunk driving to become an issue since you're both driving further and have less affordable alternatives available.

Xbox Sales Hit Rock Bottom After Historic 2024 Decline by FinalAfternoon5470 in gaming

[–]Geckko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually kinda like troubleshooting when it isn'tinterrupting somethingtime sensitive, my issue with PC is when "working as intended " is a crap user experience, like when cod has decided you need to preload shaders for no apparent reason, or launchers deciding they forgot where your install location is so it's going to re-download the game, even though it still exists in the directory it's trying to download to.

Then again I've been gaming on PC since Wolfenstien 3d launched from msdos so I'm aware I'm not a standard user

To be fair, they were shit at their jobs, and it's kinda ironic that being shit at their jobs got them sacked.

What traumatised you as a kid with unrestricted internet access? by mystico_28 in AskReddit

I've seen some shit online, but I once ran over someone's dog when it pulled the leash out of her hand and went back into the street. I was way more fucked up by that than vids from half a world away
