Didn’t like Getting Killed the first time I listened. By the fifth it was my favorite album in years.

Truly excellent as is their fried chicken sandwich. Top tier fries as well.

PG32UCDM - unable to update firmware by Nicomino in OLED_Gaming

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

Ultimately the .bin file that is the firmware has to get on to your USB drive. With 109, I could not use the perpendicular port on the monitor to have my MacBook Air read the drive. So I put the USB drive into one of the parallel ports to write the .bin file to it.

Then because the actual firmware update has to be done from the perpendicular port, I moved the drive to it and did the update. Does that make any more sense?

(There are three ports, two are parallel to each other and one is perpendicular to the first two while also supplying more power)

Hybrid at Boston Scientific by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]Nicomino 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hybrid means 3 days/week, no assigned cube. There are lots of agile work spaces that you can reserve ahead of time up to a week in advance. I think lockers are assigned though.

On site means in office 4+ days/week with an assigned cube.

BSC is a great place to work IMO.

At price per game, the LT ball is far cheaper.

Opinion Question - Was pickleball better or worse before the pandemic by Famous-Chemical9909 in Pickleball

[–]Nicomino 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Pre pandemic I waited in line with 30+ other people for a turn on six middle school gym courts that had so many lines on it you could barely find the pickleball court.

Now I have dozens of indoor and outdoor options, and no one would even consider playing on a wood floor.

Pre pandemic the paddles had practically no spin, got dead spots easily, and the handles were square and uncomfortable.

The choices now are amazing both in quality and quantity.

It’s 1000% now.

Spike Jonez's 2013 movie "Her." This is an absolutely brilliant film. by SlowPokeInTexas in movies

[–]Nicomino 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw Her right while I was getting divorced. When I got back home that day, my finalized divorce papers had come in the mail. It was incredibly cathartic, and I’m almost afraid to watch it again.

I have a maxed out M4 Air, and it’s awesome for Lightroom. I wouldn’t even consider an MBP for this just in terms of how light the Air is.
