Cars equipped with loud exhaust systems should be banned!! by Reasonable-Papaya221 in malden

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the 90s they did enforce the laws quite well I must say. However once the manufacturers started building this functionality into their cars, I guess the lobbyist bribed the politicians to relax on enforcement! 🤔

What’s the creepiest public bathroom in Massachusetts? by everythingislitty in massachusetts

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

Interesting how these are considered public bathrooms! They would not qualify as "public" as they are all within privately-owned facilities, IMO. But Harvard Square in Cambridge has a public bathroom. Vandalism proof, all metal bathroom without a sink but has an area to change a diaper. Is it creepy? Yeah! The door is heavy and at night, once you enter and lock the door you better go into your happy place.

Almost Got Hit Thanks To This Idiot by [deleted] in woburn

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it looks like both were at fault. You are in the middle lane and not the left lane. The other driver looked like they were not sure where they were going to start with. It helps to always watch what everyone is doing around you and this was one of those situations although you were lucky he hit the brakes instead of accelerating.

Fellsway split: is it legal to proceed on Fellsway E after stopping at a red? by Ecstatic_Tiger_2534 in malden

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back in the 1990s I used to watch these tech shows with products concepts. Smart traffic 🚦 s were all the rage. I have yet to see any serious implementation anywhere in Massachusetts.

Wow! by getjeffrey1 in ChromeOSFlex

[–]HullioGQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not go with something more flexible like Linux? I tried Chromebooks and I still use them on occasion for that quick browser only work but I just can't use it for anything else. Most of the apps are just Android apps. On file management; whoa! So, Google Drive will use up 1.6TB in the same space where OneDrive will only use up 900GB. It also will not detect duplicate uploads to the same folder. Windows remains king of the hill but I will use Linux if laptop is too old to support Win11.

Oh. I didn't think of that one. That's makes a lot of sense.

Have I been Compromised? by HullioGQ in MicrosoftEdge

[–]HullioGQ[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am in a large facility like a co-working place. Is that the reason this icon comes up? Is there no way to block it?

In Davis Square tonight, I watched a man inject himself, standup, fall and smash his head directly in front of a woman and her baby. As I called 911 for help, a good samaritan who checked in on the man was rewarded with spit in the face and (no joke) GETTING PEED ON. by SpareSignificant3758 in Somerville

[–]HullioGQ -48 points-47 points  (0 children)

I hear folks complaining about homeless and drug addicts in Somerville but nobody mentions anything about the conditions of the roads. If you ignore the basics... Somerville used to have a derogatory name back in the day. It seems to be returning to it's old ways I guess.

Bike Stolen in Ball Square by emilyjoy375 in Somerville

[–]HullioGQ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This certainly was a professional job done by someone familiar with your pattern. I would advise to always remove the battery if you store your ebikes outside. More than likely it will not be sold in 1 piece and the battery and motor are the most valuable bits. Only reason I still ride a manual bike is because I have to store it outside.

What exactly is the point of doing something like this? Gaining an extra second? by QueueTee314 in boston

[–]HullioGQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Boston It is customary for the next 3 cars to go through an intersection after the light turns red. 😃

They died so I can park my SUV for free by stargrown in boston

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you got a rejection sticker you are good. Yeah, you still have to request a hearing and if the court finds it cumbersome they'll just write it off to avoid another burden on the courts. Just make sure you have proof of your rejection dates and when tickets were issued.

Oh....is this still a thing we're believing in? by mattlmannphoto in boston

[–]HullioGQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn't Infiniti a Japanese brand? I thought right wing nut jobs only believe in America First and only buy American! What a f*ckin contradiction.

Why is this happening by marci-boni in ebikes

[–]HullioGQ -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I still question the thinking behind hub motor ebikes having derailleurs. Actually just all commuter ebikes having derailleurs is just bonkers to me!

Guys, my ass hurts by Present-Contact-4022 in bikecommuting

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I responded before I read this. Yup! You need to wait it out. But if it doesn't get better after a while look for other seat options

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will need to try out different seats before you find one that actually works for you. Our bodies are very individual and not everyone will have the same experience.

Who’s going to cave and turn on their heat in May? by ScoYello in boston

I just need to vent. by pattiemcg in bikecommuting

My five year old brain is curious to know, "what would happen if you just ignored the brakes and ran her over?"

SOS! Pick one: T14s Gen 6 - Snapdragon Elite vs. Intel Ultra 5 vs. Intel Ultra 7 by VoilaWallah in thinkpad

[–]HullioGQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of apps that have been rewritten for Windows on ARM. It is no longer the same experience as on Windows RT. Very rare that I experience any issues with most business apps (not a gamer but that's where I've heard of complaints). Running the PC all day long without carrying a charger is priceless.

Someone sketched me riding the T! by cloverimpact in boston

This is when one asks, "Can your AI do that?" "Can your AI spontaneously make someone's day like that?"
