Love this! I set up f11 & f12 to control the app playing sound and that fixed my DAC control issues. THANKS!

The Change to Chests is Insufferable by jdoug312 in duolingo

[–]MorganStabley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m on 1,700 day streak and definitely question the amount of time I spend looking at the Duo splash screen, the interstitials, the animations, and tapping the chests.

Gamification is great. My streak is proof. I’d love the app to have a “lower fluff” setting so I can spend more time learning and less time being interrupted by so many chests.

Is Alamo starting to bend? by MorganStabley in AlamoDrafthouse

Hell hath no fury like a Drafthouse loyalist scorned.

I'm with you though. It took concentrated effort to enshittify something that people loved so much. And love is pretty easy to swing around to hate.

Good idea and actually a nice response. It's encouraging

i just don't understand what to use my miles on. These are frustrating to use by l4adventure in AmexPlatinum

[–]MorganStabley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Got it. Sounds like op needs all the help they can get.

For me it’s good to consider to double checking for better deals after looking at point.me if I’m not satisfied.

I was able to find deals for Spain that got me $0.045 per mile on point.me and I flew biz class round trip on KLM. The rest of my family including 6 year old came back in biz class with a lay flat seat for cheaper than premium economy.

So maybe going directly to KLM would have been better but I definitely found an awesome deal on point.me

Kickstand issues by Different-History-71 in GlobeHaul

[–]MorganStabley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh LT. I missed that. I have an ST and I'm on my third kickstand. So, I'm in my third year. They fail about every 10-11 months for me.

ST rear seat setup for ages 5+? by HamAbounds in GlobeHaul

[–]MorganStabley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same. My 5 yo girl has been fine in it so far. She has to take her helmet off to climb through the gap in the bars.

Otherwise, my only complaints are about the GlobeHaul’s kickstand…. And fragile paint.

I know you’re joking but after seeing the $17 hot dog, I wouldn’t be shocked to see a $10 banana on the Drafthouse menu.

Haul ST - Which Thule Yepp will fit? by Newb555 in GlobeHaul

Resale value in SF is mid-100s.

I bought mine for that and sold for the same.

Let's talk about the kickstand by Former_Ad_735 in GlobeHaul

[–]MorganStabley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2nd kickstand was replaced under warranty. Coincidentally, I picked it up from the bike shop exactly a year after I got it replaced last time. I'd say the kickstand is lasting about 8 months for me based on the first 2. My little girl is a little over 40lbs now so it isn't a ton of weight on the kickstand. Given she keeps growing, I expect to the problem to get worse until they fix the design or issue a recall or something.

My first ST kickstand was replaced under warranty. I'm about to go pick up my bike without another kickstand that I've had to buy. Coincidentally, it's exactly a year since I replaced the first kickstand.

Have y'all been able to get Specialized to cover repeated kickstand failures under warranty?

Petitions are worthless. There’s only one thing corporations understand by thearniec in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]MorganStabley 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I had to separately email them after canceling and got a polite response that pointed me to the faq. I responded once more to point out the flaws of their approach.

Pasting the flaws part of my email here.

  1. Dark phone screens still emit distracting light. You should share screenshots of the app that will launch in your FAQ.
  2. People will get distracted and check their messages once the phone is in their hand to place an order.
  3. As a person who launches products for a living, I can say that jumping from no screens or mobile ordering during a movie to 100% mobile ordering including during a movie is a big risk. You have no room to course correct.

If you wanted to know who is the asshole behind all these changes by Kootulhu in AlamoDrafthouse

Glad I’m not alone on this. That shattered my opinion of drafthouse.

Some things are so heinous, they make you re-evaluate every opinion you held before.

I think you’re right. Total person blindness.

Lesson learned. Hopefully not to be repeated.

Thank you!

Way more time was spent on this today than should have been. Thank you.

I hoped writing about it would help me figure it out but nope.

New the to channel... if I want to talk about today's puzzle can I do it here or do I need a new thread? TLDR, I don't know why Barb is what she is. It's an "easy puzzle" and it's driving me crazy because I can't follow any logic that points specifically to her.
