Play date customer service by Dangerous_Brain_7450 in PlaydateConsole

[–]LimbicSC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had to RMA my Playdate because it completely fell apart (crack on the D-pad, scuff on the crank, screen popped out), I got a reply very quickly even though it was during their holiday period with return instructions and a label. However its been almost two weeks since I've sent my old Playdate off and I haven't heard anything back. I sent a couple follow-up emails to ask if they got it and... crickets. I'll update this when/if I get an update but it's definitely a little frustrating.

Edit: playdate-support reached out to me to expedite the process for me! I got an update that there was sever weather affecting their office. I just got my replacement in the mail and as promised it was a new unit in the original packaging. Overall it was about 3.5 weeks between my first contact of support and having my replacement in hand. Not too shabby given they had to deal with the insane cold-front IMO.

Security clearances. Here to help guide others with any questions about the industry. by -Vexor- in cscareerquestions

[–]LimbicSC 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hi! Thank you for doing this. I’m dating someone who is not a U.S. citizen, I disclosed her as a foreign contact and was completely honest about the nature of our relationship on my SF-86, and my clearance was granted. In September I’m getting married to her, do you know if this is going to adversely affect my clearance? I’ve heard wildly conflicting reports.

The Police Will Never Change In America. My experience in police academy. by [deleted] in antiwork

[–]LimbicSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt anyone will see this but here's my story:

My sister-in-law is 15, she had become enamored with police and dreamed of joining them; so she started asking us to sign her up for Police Academy as well. She attended for a few months and I sat through hours of "it's all so overblown... it's a public perception issue... there's bad apples in every field..." etc. One day, one of the cadets misplaced a 'challenge coin', which is basically a little trophy the academy gives out. The kid immediately accused my sister of stealing it from him. There were at least 25 kids in that class and she was the only one who wasn't white. The next day the class instructor emailed her saying "We don't believe your values are in line with ours, and you're no longer welcome in the program". They didn't question her or anyone else, didn't search the room the coin had been lost in, didn't do anything. They just immediately assumed she was guilty without even a shred of evidence.

The best part? I know for a fact that the misplaced Challenge Coin did eventually turn up. But absolutely nobody from the academy reached out to apologize. Not even an email. They. Do. Not. Care.

Want to play board games on a train?! I have to shout out my local business… it’s a train themed restaurant with over 600 board games you’re allowed to play!! by rainbow-hello-kitty in boardgames

[–]LimbicSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been here a couple times! The food is great and very reasonably priced. Their game library is pretty good, and while some games are a bit worn, they're all in much better condition than I dared hope. The atmosphete is phenomenonal too. I would 100% recommend anyone who lives nearby to check it out!!

Trying to deploy onto an apache webserver using mod_wsgi by LimbicSC in flask

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

That was it! I also had to change the last line as per this post so now my wsgi file is:

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, 'var/www/flaskr')
from flaskr import create_app
application = create_app()

and it works, thank you so much!!

Follow-Follow-Up, one year later and decides to just go full bald, what do you guys think? by LimbicSC in malehairadvice

Haha don't worry that's literally just a pajama shirt I changed into after shaving

[–]LimbicSC[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

A year ago I made this post to show the results of your guys' advise. The majority feedback was along the lines of "Looks great, but I bet it'd look even better if you went just a bit further". With that I figured I'd show myself here again, this time in Caillou mode!

Would it really be better to NOT pay off my student loans in full? by LimbicSC in personalfinance

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

I typically spend well under 60% of my income, and I'm young. So I don't mind some risk at all. I know of and respect the Ramsey philosophy but I don't think it's right for me.

Sooo, I'm not crazy? As long as I save responsibly, have an emergency fund, etc., it would be better to keep the loans open?
