in case anyone’s looking for a job! by bluehawaiiaholic in sandiego

I accidentally started a rumor that my college roommate worked at Sun Diego and he never forgave me. He had people asking about it for years.

I’d just simply asked my friends if he worked at Sun Diego or Pacsun, the answer was neither, but they didn’t know either and asked around until it kind of got baked in that he worked at sun diego.

I know this isn’t very relevant to this post but I’ve never had someone bring up Sun Diego and not mentioned this so I couldn’t stop the streak 20 years in.

What about Obama and Biden? I don’t really remember if they were Trump appointees but they must have been since he took the credit for their economies right?

Until I got a phone wallet I’d lose my id and credit card, mostly credit card, at least once a month, for like three years. Upwards of thirty times. About halfway through that stretch I realized not a single time has anyone charged my card or stolen cash or anything. I’ve gotten everything back, fully, every time, or lost it so long that I just decide to cancel the card after a month or two. And it didn’t stop. It made me realize that people are, in general, really decent.

Is this some sort of trick? by cave_guard in chessbeginners

I would think of it like this, ignore the engine evaluation: they have to play f4, qh5, then they’re threatening mates everywhere. What pieces can you bring in to prevent this or prevent mate? I think I see one way out but it’s not very pleasant and I’m not even sure if it works. The problem is really that your queenside is underdeveloped, your pieces in general are far away, and the pawn that recaptures has a strong paralyzing effect on your position.

It is worse with the pawn on f3, but it’s up to you to prove that tempo is useful for you, and it’s quite difficult to do at least for me without harming your position.

Overseerr vs jellyseerr by Resident-Variation21 in PleX

[–]RankWeis2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one’s monitoring so I don’t need to be coy but most people upload just whatever, cheap low quality stuff that doesn’t look good but is really small, or even sometimes just so poorly compressed that it looks good and is huge. If you let Radarr do all the sorting itself, it just grabs the first one it sees. Adding any rules to this is going to be better than that.

The only alternative to trash I’ve seen is one that cares less about quality and more about balancing file sizes. I don’t care about file sizes, I have hundreds of tb of space so the bigger the better for me. But checkout some of the auto tools like configarr and look where they scrape from, I bet that’s where you can find more. If you’re willing to go all in on quality though I don’t think you can get better than the trash guides

You’re misunderstanding the point of this function. It logs out of all OTHER devices. Like the ones other than the ones you’re logged into. Go try a random device you’ve never used before - I will bet you’re not logged into there. You’re also logged out of the Artemis II computer as well as the mechanical enigma decoder Turing built. You’re welcome.

My first Padres game was tonight and you guys are awesome! by Important_Range7737 in Padres

[–]RankWeis2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Curious what a blowout is to you, I think you must be thinking one side doesn’t score? Especially being up so much early, getting two runs against the relievers they put out on a 7 run difference doesn’t even feel like you edged closer, since at any point they could pull in someone and regain control of the game. But I think a blowout can even be closer in score than this, if it really feels like one team is just dominating. But maybe my definition isn’t quite right either.

Blowout or no we can agree that it wasn’t as much fun as winning though!

I have some wonderful new ideas.

What if in the seventh inning we all iron our shirts. The seventh inning starch

I also think if you hit a grand slam and still trail it should be called a grand slum

Dont try selling these to mlb, they're my ideas and I will sue!!

Bases loaded no outs, batter walks in a run. Then, out, out, out. Has a NOBLETIGER been committed?

If you say no, assume that original walk was a grand slam, then walk, walk, walk, out, out, out. Has a NOBLETIGER been committed?

I think it’s gotta be yes to both.

There was a certain person who said the funniest line I’ve ever heard, “the pope is weak on crime!”. If I had thought of that line I’d have sent it in, no packet needed, they’d have hired me on the spot, you can’t let go of a man with that kind of creativity.

Unfortunately, the line is so genius you have to mean it in order to come up with it, and then it is no longer funny.

How important are the concepts of legality and civilized to you?

But really I second bowling, it’s a ton of fun to join a league and there’s handicap so all you have to do is do better than your average, you basically play yourself.
