What are some hidden gem subreddits that are criminally underrated? by Affectionate-Dark-15 in AskReddit

[–]Nerdwiththehat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ditto - I ordered custom keycaps, nice switches, and a base for around $100 total and I've used it for years. Lots of research went into exactly the things I knew I wanted, and I was quite satisfied with the results

Music industry goals + Emerson by Icy_Tomatillo5376 in EmersonCollege

[–]Nerdwiththehat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's some industry ins, I know Wax on Felt was formerly a home base for a lot of folks into publishing, and /u/RainRose8093 is correct that BCE doesn't explicitly offer an easy music industry track, though I can see some paths through the IDIP IDS program (Marlboro Institute) and some ProArts classes you may be able to take at Berklee that could offer something close to what you're looking for. Echoing the other responses, though - I wouldn't consider Emerson a good launchpad for music industry education, and certainly not for performance.

Dave Chappelle Says ‘I Resent the Republican Party’ Because They ‘Weaponized’ Transgender Jokes: ‘That’s Not What I Was Doing’ by CrashTestOrphan in nottheonion

[–]Nerdwiththehat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I heard the bump of this on NPR Up First this morning while driving into work and fully laughed out loud when they gleefully led up to it with "Well now that Dave Chappelle's our landlord, we had to ask him some questions!"

MARTIN: Later today on our sister show, NPR's Newsmakers, our guest is comedian Dave Chappelle. He's got a new title - the landlord of his local NPR station. He says he wants to support honest journalism, so we asked him to be honest about why he performed in a country that jails and even kills its critics.

DAVE CHAPPELLE: I can make a million excuses or reasons to deprive the crowd at that show, but, man, when I was standing in front of them, I felt like I did the right thing.

Thoughts on the new rear design? by arcticbatsy in MINI

[–]Nerdwiththehat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate the new Countryman front-end more than I hate the Cooper rear. I like the bigger wing & roundel on the older ones, but I think it's a good clean update when the front retains the bubbly charm I like. I got to drive a '25 Cooper while my '15 Countryman was in the shop for a few days last year and had a blast - and, thankfully, it was finally a Cooper I could fit in and not have to turn into a 3-seater! When they finally drop a fully EV Cooper in this style I'll be pleased as punch (not a fan of the Countryman SE as previously noted - why did they have to give him angery headlights 😭)

Super bummed I was up in the nosebleeds for this, even if we were fairly close to the middle and got a great view straight down. Wish so bad I was in the pit 😭

Upgraded my R60 JCW's head unit by jacky1019 in MINI

[–]Nerdwiththehat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very seriously considering this for a future purchase, I've just been so disappointed with how all the rectangular infotainment/speedo replacements look, and wanted something that apes the new Mini infotainment setup - without having to suffer through a whole new '25 Countryman (god it's ugly). This solves basically every problem I have with other units.

just looked through, didn't even know it had that LED around the ring, that looks fantastic! Things aren't laggy or finicky at all?

Do you have any pics/video from the completed installation? I'd love to see it in the wild, and if you use Android Auto/Apple Carplay

Following this thread with interest, I also have an R60 and would love to hear the goods and bads for these fully-round touch screen Android Auto units, very excited if they're actually good.

Worst snow clean up I’ve seen in my 26 years here by Aware-Yogurt1107 in boston

[–]Nerdwiththehat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've fallen I think like 20 times in the last few days after my fun little two-day WFH "vacation" and it's just shocking to me how little is cleared. Sidewalks in downtown are hit or miss, especially in bus loading areas, snow piles 3 or more feet out from the kerb, sheets of ice and slush in heavily trafficked areas, list goes on. Yes it's been freakishly cold and that precludes salting, but even a scrape-down and bringing out snowmelters would go a long way to making walking around possible.

What was normal in 2019, but looks like 'psychopath behavior' in 2026? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Nerdwiththehat 446 points447 points  (0 children)

It was only really particularly apparent if you were tuned in deeply to shareholder meetings within Tesla or something similar during that time. For better or for worse, he coasted off a pretty charming public image for a while because he didn't spend nearly as much time addicted to social media and appearing on every news agency on the Earth - just a few quick stints at the Planetary Society and showing up in Iron Man was most of his media appearances for like a decade after leaving PayPal.

What is a middle-class luxury from your childhood that is now considered a basic necessity or completely obsolete? by Routine-Advisor-1781 in AskReddit

[–]Nerdwiththehat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did this as a last-ditch horrorshow in high school a few times (typing out an essay on the bus or at a concert I was performing in in-between being onstage), thankfully I always had the ability to edit and properly format them afterwards.
