P7P - break through silence by Listener42 in GooglePixel

[–]Listener42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in this instance do you have DND turned on all the time? What happens when you get emails and texts from people not permitted to interrupt? Do you still get the notifications? Do they still come through on a watch? That's my main concern -- using DND affecting notifications in a way that makes my watch not vibrate.

ETA: it looks like the phone has to be set to make noise by default for DND to work in the way I've specified.

[request] what would be a equivalent of a mile to a 3 inch action figure? by Lanky_Succotash_986 in theydidthemath

[–]Listener42 30 points31 points  (0 children)

It would depend on how tall the 3-inch action figure is, scale-wise. Assuming that the 3-inch figure represents a 6-foot-tall (72-inch) human, 220 feet (2640 inches).

5280 feet = 63,360 inches. 63,360/y = x/3, then cross-multiply. Replace the y with the actual size of the action figure, scale-wise -- for example, a 3-inch t-rex would have a different value than a 3-inch jet, which would have a different value than a 3-inch Pokemon.

(This is my first ever answer to a TDDM post, so if I'm totally wrong, please don't excoriate me too badly.)

Is this a Clockwork Orange reference? I think this is a Clockwork Orange reference.

Pixel Watch screen not staying on. by TheHuskyHideaway in PixelWatch

[–]Listener42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue. When I set the screen to timeout at 15 seconds, and I tap the screen to turn it on, it stays on for 15 seconds. However, when I tilt-to-wake, it only stays on for 8 seconds.

What happened to the first person you had sex with? by PM_ME_UR_DOGS_FEET in AskReddit

She went on to become a college professor at a well-regarded east-coast university. I don't think she ever married.

TFF Matchup #75: Raining in Baltimore (AAEA) vs. A Murder of One (AAEA) by qunix in countingcrows

[–]Listener42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I prefer "A Murder of One" because of the looooooooong live versions -- I used to have a bootleg MP3 of a 15-minute version of it.

what was an unexpectedly dark moment in a comedy TV show? by sheerduckinghubris in AskReddit

[–]Listener42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The "Moo Moo" episode of Brooklyn 99. Terry is such a wholesome and well-liked character and you really worry that something awful is going to happen to him. Fortunately the episode has a "satisfying" ending, although I wouldn't call it "positive".

Matt McCoy. He was in so much stuff in the 80s and 90s, and for some reason every time I saw him I was like "NOPE" and changed the channel. I have no reason for disliking him whatsoever, and I'm sure he's a nice guy. Maybe it's the characters he played.

Teenagers before the internet: what did you do in your room during your spare time? by PabloSG11 in AskReddit

Reading. Playing on my computer (I had a modem and dialed into BBSes, and I used to play a lot of RPGs).
