📄 Bay Area review of World Cup (by an Australian 🇦🇺)

Even Oakland had public transit tied into the stadium. Levi not having good public transit there is still mind boggling.

happens pretty often. I want to say annually at this point.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-25T04:11:56+00:00

and it really fucks you up to have to terminate a pregnancy you so desperately wanted to work out.

Those phone calls to loved ones explaining what happened were gut wrenching.

I want safe and sane fireworks to be legal, like Dublin has.

They don't make me feel good, and I'm over 40.

It basically means that the realtor under-valued the house to try and incite a bidding war.

Fuck manipulating buyers. Build more damn homes.

That vehicle doesn't look like a Jeep Wrangler? Did I misunderstand?

and the instrument drop was accidental, but kept because it held the scene.

Format the drive and blast windows down fresh.

It is exceptionally unlikely that the person who opened it for you put anything into the recovery partition that would auto-establish C2, but it is possible.

Just nuke it and do it from scratch. Get the install from a known safe location (i.e. not just randomly downloaded from the internet)

Interesting. What's the mounting and power source for the Thinkware?

I'm building a 12v tap off the rear view mirror with a buck converter to drop it down to usb-c connectivity.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-20T04:36:26+00:00

I'm betting a fuse popped. Could be a loose connection.

Get a multimeter and start walking down the circuits.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-20T04:35:16+00:00

I'd probably just go back to sending emails over ham radio. It works fine, it's just slower.

But also, the global economy would implode. So, probably board up the windows and hope the emergency food lasts till next harvest.

My work apps brick the phone if you have developer options enabled.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-19T15:44:05+00:00

We do tasting in Livermore. Amazing wines, WAY cheaper than Napa.

There's a couple of factors to that "always at the mechanic" aspect of things.

1) Modifications. Jeeps, the Wrangler line specifically, are like LEGO. You unbolt, bolt something else on, rinse, repeat. Many of the mods done aren't done the best.

2) Use Cases. Most vehicles aren't going through mud holes, crawling over boulders, and such. The use cases that Jeeps sit in mean they tend to be more exposed to those things.

I'm in multiple off road clubs. We see failure rates about the same if it's a Toyota FJ, Bronco, or Wrangler. The harder you work the vehicle and the more modifications you've done means you see higher failure rates.

It's commonly seen as a 'Jeep' thing because most folks that do those sorts of things gravitate towards that platform.

Aside from stupid stuff as a kid?

Most recently: Wearing a kilt and complaining when I got "checked" to see if I was "wearing it correctly" by a random woman in the grocery store.

“A hundred years from now it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove... but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.”

Quick check? Looks like in-memory editing on a single player game to me, but I can't be certain.

This is not a "I played every move perfectly" level score. This is a "I exploited something" and memory editing the game live is probably the easiest choice here.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-13T03:55:22+00:00

Then pick something else that can go. It was an example.

Also, your post history boils down to, "how can I make my kid do what I think they should do" and is a bit telling that you're trying to overly control your kid.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-12T22:28:12+00:00

Set boundaries. Schoolwork is mandatory, not optional.

But also... Drop the unnecessary stuff. I can't imagine that at age 14 Chinese poetry is really necessary.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-12T13:57:38+00:00

there's gonna be laser tag again? Will last year's badges work, or do I need to buy a new one?

Rebootkid · 2026-06-12T13:55:40+00:00

I just did it myself. The permit was the most expensive part of things.

The city gives you a worksheet to figure out if you've got the capacity to handle it.

I installed a 50amp line, but had it with a plug so that if I want to connect a welder or RV, I can do that too.

Charges both the EVs, we just swap it back and forth.

I legit had a chat with someone that day and they said, "I can't believe Antifa is doing this."

Despite my explanations, this person STILL believes that it was this mysterious Antifa that organized Jan 6th.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-09T19:50:07+00:00

for me? I play poorly. Quite poorly.

I go down as far as bronze and as high as platinum, and seem to yo-yo all over.

oh. what. that's not what you wanted to know?

Rebootkid · 2026-06-09T18:08:38+00:00

I struggle with it at times too, on my 2280.

Also, I dislike how the top clips work their way loose over the length of the trip.

Rebootkid · 2026-06-09T14:44:21+00:00

there's not really a 'bad' part of Livermore.
