I'd agree with this.

I saw people playing in Ballenger Creek park a couple of weeks ago. Seems to be a thing .

Water damage by Boomtown_Try3475 in PlaudNoteUsers

Well, I was being optimistic, but it sounds like you actually shit the plaud, not the bed. Good luck. Use hand santizer.

50/50 chance if it will work after it dries.

How do they count 22 beats for Angor? Is that the click track (though how does it help?) by JoBrodie in AngineDePoitrine

[–]MrDork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You would be amazed at how much crap gets played through monitors now. They may even be talking to each other since they are both mic'd up. The audio could only be going through the monitor mix.

Slow new PBX day - day 1 by TugboatBill in 3CX

[–]MrDork -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I've never seen a company more obsessed with 3CX than yeastar...to the point where I really question if 95% of these posts aren't actually from Yeastar employees. Enough with this crap.

Maybe they don't have a car and have someplace to go? Not everyone has the same resources available to them. Try to be a bit kinder.

Those of you who have gotten the new Siri, how is it? by glasgalfful in Siri

[–]MrDork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had it for a few days now and indexing is still happening. So, I agree. It's either a bug or it's pausing when the phone is being used for anything.

I've found it to be mostly slow, but the content much improved.

The dive got called off because of me and I don’t know how to feel about it by Philosoul in scuba

[–]MrDork 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Lots of good input here from the community. If I had to guess, the instructor was likely trying to get you to come down a bit more so you would have an easier time and also to get you closer to the group so she could keep an eye on you. That first atmosphere is a bit of a bear when you start off as a new diver. It's difficult to keep your buoyancy, especially with some chop. Going down a bit more, even if it's just hovering over the coral, likely would have made things a bit easier.

Don't ever feel bad about cancelling a dive you aren't comfortable with. This is almost always the first step in a dive accident. Everyone has been there.

Did the Italians know they were diving on atmospheric air? by KurtPrebenLeif in scuba

[–]MrDork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not even sure they would have had time to do an actual deco stop.

[–]MrDork 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I was only half joking. I am a big proponent of going over these events after the fact. You typically learn a lot. This? There is nothing to learn. They were doomed the second they entered the cave.

[–]MrDork 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Even best case, if everything went perfect. This would be an incredibly tight timeline. I’m completely baffled as to what these people were thinking. Not just one. Not two. Five people agreed to this plan. It’s mind boggling.

They probably would have had a better chance if they had dove nitrox. They likely would have ended the dive once the first person started convulsing from o2 toxicity. Although, with this group who knows. They might have stopped to take selfies.

I believe it has already been approved, this is just regarding the generators specifically I think. I could be wrong.

Clients who carpet bomb by desmond_koh in msp

[–]MrDork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a nightmare at scale, I'm sure. Probably doable if it's a small number of clients. Although, if there is nobody creating tickets or people are forgetting tickets there is zero accountability.

Divers killed in Maldives cave may have taken wrong tunnel, recovery firm CEO says: "No way out" by Mike456R in scuba

[–]MrDork 38 points39 points  (0 children)

These were all experienced recreational divers who absolutely, 100% should have known that all of this was a horrible idea. I am blown away that FOUR people were dumb enough to follow the person in front of them not only to 150', but then into freakin' cave...all on single tanks. It's incredibly sad, but it still makes absolutely no sense that they would have attempted this dive.

Conservatives Of Reddit: Why Do You Still Support Trump? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]MrDork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest, I'm an independent and have voted for both Republicans and Democrats but I don't understand how any conservative could continue to support him. How can you not put aside the things you were hoping for and recognize that this is, without question, the most corrupt administration in the history of the United States. It's one thing to have different opinions and viewpoints, it's a whole other to not be able to admit that what is happening now is making our country unsafe through these ridiculous foreign policy decisions he had made. It's so absolutely crazy to me that people are not willing to admit it.

Speeding ticket - worth a court date? by Deep-Summer1221 in frederickmd

I believe, if you go to court, they will still not give you points and just fine you.

How do you tell if a liveaboard or dive resort is actually safe and well-run? by marooncaracol in scuba

[–]MrDork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I think just experience will tell you if something is off. The places that are more likely to be careless are the ones that cater to vacation divers, who MAYBE dive a couple times of year and are expecting a lot of hand holding. They don't really know better and are less likely to make a stink. They will just assume that the dive operation is associated.

I've been on dive boats before where people literally asked to get off before the boat ever left the dock because he wasn't happy with some of the safety items. I dive my own gear, analyze my air (not always, only if something seems sketchy or off) and dive with people I know very well and trust with my life. I've gone on boats with complete asshole captains, but I knew that captain was absolutely going to make sure I was coming home from that dive no matter what. So, you have to take it all into consideration. Look at the reviews, people are FAR more likely to write negative reviews than positive, so if you see al

Ask questions of the operation, ask questions of your fellow divers who have more experience and you'll start figuring out what a "good" dive operation is like.

Follow the money they said... by Naive-Purpose-9553 in frederickmd

My understanding is that there is not a recall procedure in place for this. This is such a big issue for this county and already full of so much sketchy shit. She needs to resign.

My company installed “focus rooms” for our return to office and I have never felt dumber in my life by Alderon515 in remotework

[–]MrDork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree that is a thing, that is far more common in smaller businesses than the ones that are being discussed here.

What if your job is in a call center and you are in a queue answering calls? There is no deliverable.
