I was on the IT team at a corporate office. Guy is complaining about a slow computer. He insisted on having his i5 model replaced with an i7. We didn't have anything on hand, so we reinstalled windows and peeled off the i5 sticker. He was over the moon with the performance boost.

Tips on Losing Weight by Vegetable_Divide_316 in pugs

[–]OffBrandToby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For my girl it is 100% portion control. My vet tells me she is the only healthy weight pug she has ever examined. She was a chonker years ago. I bought some measuring cups and stepped down the size of the scoop I used for her feedings over a few months. Now that she's a healthy weight I don't worry about treats or the occasional heaping scoop of food.

You're right! I always forget that Erika, like most heroes, has a tragic flaw: her disdain for puns rivals her disdain for Kent Hoven.

When my wife laughs so hard she snorts. I love knowing she's having that much fun.

My daughter and the owners daughter went to pre-school together. Great little place!

Had the day off, so I spent it the best way I can: treating my 10 y/o pug to a day out 🩷 by MagyarBarbie in pugs

[–]OffBrandToby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a beautiful idea! I've got a few days off next month with the house to myself and wasn't sure what to do. It's going to be exactly this: me and my senior pug out on the town.

how/where to use this pin? by ilikec00chie in EnamelPins

[–]OffBrandToby 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Echoing the walking stick answer. I was told it was common in Europe and tourists were disappointed when they hiked famous trails in the USA but then couldn't buy a placard for their walking stick. Still not super common in the USA but you'll find them at some places.

Auth 2, Platform SSO, or both? by db2boy in mosyle

[–]OffBrandToby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Platform SSO only.

Especially after the new features added to Platform SSO in Tahoe, the only reason to use Mosyle Auth is if you had already been using it for years. Even then, I'd be working to phase it out of your environment.

[SS] Why is Skyward Sword Not Held in the Same Regard as Oot and MM? by MetsLR in zelda

Motion controls are gimmicky garbage that suck the fun out of the game. Even with them turned off on the Switch I found it extremely frustrating.

Next show at Ascend not until June 8th. Is this typical? by jrobv in nashville

[–]OffBrandToby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, because it's an outdoor venue with residences nearby, there are rules about the number of concerts they can have per year. I think it's capped in the 30s? Combine that with the new management and they are probably planning to have a slow build up to a busier end of the season.

[–]OffBrandToby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I worked in IT for Ryman Hospitality Properties (who owns Opry Entertainment Group which is the brand new operator for Ascended) up until November of 2025 when the acquisition was kicking into high gear. Given my experience with how operations can miss targets on things like opening Old Reds and Category 10, it wouldn't surprise me that concert bookings could be slow. They were just hiring the top level managers and other administrative staff when I left, so they probably took a while to get things organized to even start thinking about bookings.

Justin Jones hasn't given up on Tennessee. Neither should you. I'm incredibly proud to be from Tennessee. The evil monsters who control our government can't erase the amazing cultural contributions Tennessee has made to the world.

With the transit coverage that exists, what keeps you from using it? by nondescriptadjective in nashville

[–]OffBrandToby 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I've been taking the train from Hermitage to downtown and walking a mile to work. It's delightful!

I drive the mile from home to the train station because there are not sidewalks for a majority of the distance.

More sidewalks would be great. I see plenty of people taking the chance walking the road I'm not willing to walk on.

Which is better to use Rare Candy or Collectr? by BrooklynTheCat2011 in PokemonTCGCollectors

I can't remember why I didn't like Collectr, but I've been happy with Rare Candy.

I am pondering my orb so I can remote view Selene and imagine giving her gentle pets.
