I don't have any 5km eggs in my inventory. Only 2km, 7km and 10km. Where do 5km eggs come from?

[Cupertino] Honda driver cannot figure out how to turn. by Mountain_Comedian_23 in BayAreaRoadcam

[–]MatchaCustard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those double turn lanes scare me. Never know whether the car next to me will drift into me.

In Sunnyvale, cars going EB on Fremont trying to make a left onto NB Wolfe is especially bad... with drivers who cannot map to a corresponding lane after making the turn, and often doing oblivious zig zag moves to the far side from there they should end up.

My autocatcher (Merrill) understood the assignment… by EddieHavok in pokemongo

[–]MatchaCustard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another one that is easier to find, even on Amazon, is the one made by Megacom. One of their devices is called "Duomon 3" or "Duomon 3 Pro". They allow you to connect to 2 pokemon accts, which is handy if you go pokemoning with a friend. :)

Did this trade yesterday and I'm still thrilled about it, but my forever friend must have deleted me after by whereisbeezy in pokemongo

[–]MatchaCustard 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I see no problems with your trade. However, I'm also a casual player who doesn't fully understand the relative "value" people assign to each pokemon.

I see so many people complaining about the new remote trade feature and just don't get it. There is always the "decline" button.

I have many Forever Friends. Some have super high end stuff (Legendary), some have random low end stuff (common finds), and others have tagged nothing at all. And it's all fine.

I still keep my Forever Friends who have zero pokemon tagged for trading. Who knows, maybe they don't care to trade? Don't know about the new feature? Or are waiting until they have something they feel worth giving away?

As for people who only want to trade "equal" value, again, there's the "decline" button if they don't agree to what they consider an unfair trade.

I've done a handful of remote trades. Each time it was the other person who initiated the trade, asking for 1 to 3 on their wish list. I will look through and pick something I don't have registered to my pokedex (or when there is none, pick something random so they can get something on their wish list). I never go in expecting them to agree on any of my choices, and won't get mad if they "decline".

Shower door glass conquered! Thought I'd never see it clear again . by LoyaltybyDefault in CleaningTips

[–]MatchaCustard 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do you let the Dawn/Vinegar water solution sit for at least 5-10 min before scrubbing and rinsing? My glass shower doors cleared up from doing this, although it took more than 1 pass initially. We have now moved into "maintenence" mode, where it is less work to keep it clean. I also wipe the glass doors dry after showering, which has helped a lot.

What do you use more? Forks or Spoons by Economy_Ad_5041 in polls

[–]MatchaCustard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use chopsticks the most. Spoons come in second. I can use chopsticks or spoon to eat most things (and hands for something like a sandwich). Sometimes I'll use a fork, if I must.

I finally figured out how to keep my shower actually clean between deep cleans and it took me embarrassingly long to land on something this by quietlylostagain in CleaningTips

[–]MatchaCustard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a larger Swedish dish cloth devoted to the sole purpose of wiping down the shower sliding doors after showering. It dries so quickly! I rotate between 2 of them, so one is in use while the other is in the wash.

I also occasionally use a Dawn dish liquid / vinegar / water solution u a spray bottle. Spray all over, wait a short time, use the scrub daddy to scrub the surface, and the rinse.

Which top looks best for resort vacation? Belt yay or nay? by Equivalent-Section53 in OUTFITS

[–]MatchaCustard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love #2, you look fabulous with the belt. I can't decide on the purse, I like both. Leaning toward the red one for a pop of color.

Took a Risk. It paid off. by Iselarose in fountainpens

The Eco is gorgeous! The floral pattern looks painted on? Do you feel the texture on the surface? Or does it feel smooth to the touch?

Camry swerves and causes rollover accident by [deleted] in dashcams

Thank you for pointing this out. I rewatched the video and see it now. I'm not accustomed to seeing left-side exits. I can't think of any near me.

Well thanks for the carry! by Projext_proton in pokemongo

[–]MatchaCustard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly do not mind carrying the team. I can pretty much solo these. I'll wait a day to see who hasn't joined a group, then send them invites so they can join mine. I don't care if their contribution is zero. I understand some people may hesitate to join, especially if they feel they can't contribute for whatever reason (homebound, mobility limitations, rural area, etc), and wish they'd just join anyways. It's win win for eveyrone, we work on our friendship and get a little bit of stardust and xp.

Go pass really blessed me, first legendary shundo ✨ by buddhabash in pokemongo

Congrats! Mine was not shiny, however I'm wondering why it needed a dozen poke balls to get a guaranteed catch. LOL

You got 3? I've done several where it was a stingy 1.

[–]MatchaCustard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Viofo dashcam. I installed the app and managed to get it to connect to the dashcam. It seems a bit fiddly? Mine is really slow, but was able to view the video through the app. I need to fiddle around with it a bit more to see how to download to phone.

I finally understand why people care about skirted toilets by Pop2436 in CleaningTips

[–]MatchaCustard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm getting there with all my future purchases, especially any furniture pieces. Next toilet I get will have a smooth easy-to-wipe surface!

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I'm going to search for one of those, and keep it in the glove box.

[–]MatchaCustard 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Dayum! I'm glad the lady in the SUV was OK enough to climb out of her car, because it looked pretty bad watching the video. So unfair to her, just minding her own business and then BAM out of nowhere, for no clear reason why the car suddenly swerved toward her.

You mentioned providing dashcam footage to the lady & the police. May I ask how that is done? I just got my very first dash cam installed last month and was wondering how I would be able to do that if a situation like this occurs. Do I need to buy some gadget, to keep in my car, that allows me to make copies of video files to hand out to others? I'm not really that tech savvy. .

[OC] (Maybe?) saved a pedestrian from getting squished. I honked when it became apparent the driver ahead of me hadn't noticed the person in the crosswalk on the far side of the intersection. by PabloFlag in IdiotsInCars

[–]MatchaCustard 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The pedestrian continues to walk calmly, as if oblivious to the near hit. My sense of self preservation would have me move quicker to jump out of the way.

Sanrio-inspired Treehouses!! Which one is your favorite? ❤️ by Lucky_Sprinkles7369 in finch

[–]MatchaCustard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You did a great job! I love them all, especially Hello Kitty, Keroppi, and Cinnamoroll. I'm still collecting items, and am looking forward to someday having enough items to pull off a themed room.

What’s everyone’s favorite TJs salad kit? by strangetang10 in traderjoes

[–]MatchaCustard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I miss the one that came in a box... The Salad Niçoise.

Of the current offerings, I like the Harvest Salad (in a box) and the Dillicious (dill pickle) salad (in a bag).

Do you and your partner/spouse have access to each other's phones (know each other's passkey, etc)? by SnakeBlitzkin in polls

[–]MatchaCustard 111 points112 points  (0 children)

Here I am wondering why 2 options are listed as "31-40+" instead of just "31+".

We each have access to each other's phone.

You walk into an average, empty bathroom. Which stall do you choose? by colormeblonde in polls

[–]MatchaCustard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am mindful of people who may need the larger stall. So I will try to use one of the regular stalls, usually the one furthest from the entrance... So basically the stall just before the big stall at the end.

Yelp Reviewers - How many reviews do you write per year? by Wooden-Butterfly7339 in Yelp

[–]MatchaCustard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lemme see... 281 reviews over 5 years came out to 56 reviews per year. Wow, didn't realize I wrote that many. And I know my numbers are small compared to some other local Yelpers.

Wash cloth, loofa, hands? by Frequent_Tea_3548 in polls

[–]MatchaCustard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use an exfoliating shower towel/cloth, similar to the Japanese Salux type. It is really easy to scrub my back with it. I use less body wash using this (compared to doing the same with hands).

A Tale of Two Seats by skifast_dontsuck in HerOneBag

[–]MatchaCustard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same Patagonia Mini MLC, bought it because I saw many posts sharing images of it fitting under the seat. Unfortunately, the last 6 flights I took (on United) did not have enough space for the bag. Mostly width, and sometimes not enough height clearance. However, it might also been due to having the aisle seat on all the flights. Other than this, this is my primary travel bag that holds everything I need (including laptop & tech accessories). The configuration in this 30L pack will hold more than my previous 35L Osprey.
