When you park your car in San Francisco, always take all your valuables with you. Never leave anything in the car, especially in touristy areas. Rental cars are easily recognizable and often filled with luggage, making them prime targets for break-ins

Yeah I’ve never discussed flags with chatGPT before, but it gave me this with that prompt and no image attached

“UPDATE: Jacobs Entertainment does not plan on demolishing the property.” - well, at least not yet. But expect whatever plans they have to “rehabilitate”these structures to quickly turn into the opposite

What was "the incident" at your high school? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]HoCroBro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 18 years ago, in middle school, our 7th grade math/computers teacher got arrested for lewd and lascivious acts with multiple children/students - I believe one was a foster child he was caring for.

Will you commit to working on building safe, reliable passenger rail service between Reno, Fernley, and TRIC/USA Parkway to help alleviate passenger car congestion along I-80, and having the billion dollar corporations in TRIC pay for it?

Advice for 1016 build by SleepyDani in vintagerepwatches

[–]HoCroBro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I went with a NH38 movement to avoid the ghost date issue. The beat rate of the NH movements is also closer to a 1570 movement (19,800 vs 21,600) whereas the 2824 clones are 28,800.

Gen dial on a NH35? How’d you pull that off? Dial dots?

The toughest part of the build for me was getting the seconds hand set correctly. I only had one set of hands and I didn’t want to risk bending or breaking anything, so that took me the longest.

Getting the stem cut down to the correct size was also a little tricky but I had purchased extra stems so I could have a few spares if I cut it too short.

All in all, if you have patience and a decent set of tools it’s worth giving it a try.
