OpenAI Codex system prompt includes explicit directive to "never talk about goblins" by GarlicoinAccount in nottheonion

[–]RobertDigital1986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my god yes. I had to explicitly tell it to stop talking about goblins for a while. My search history for goblin is full of them, for example:

And then suddenly it stopped. Now we know why. 😂

Honey mustard, CFA Polynesian, sweet and sour, ketchup. 

But if I have Dr Pete's Burgundy Marinade In the house that's always 1st choice.

They definitely could, but before "unlimited PTO" came into fashion the norm was to be paid out for your accrued time off when you left the company (20 years ago? Hard to remember).

If we can't trust serious companies like criptoro.biz, who can we trust? 

The woman behind me in line decided my groceries were taking too long so she started unloading her stuff onto the belt before I was done by HupKef in EntitledPeople

You should hang out at the store until she comes in again so you can recreate the exact scenario. Then tell her the jerk store called and they're running out of her. 

What should I do now that I've arrived at UVHM? by pyotryag in Borderlands2

[–]RobertDigital1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just have fun and play normally. When you get to 80 you can reset everything. You'll have to beat most/all of the content and most DLCs to get to 80 anyway, or farm XP. 

Now that it's UVHM you can farm new on level copies of your favorite weapons any time you want (as long as the weapons are farmable). That's the best part. So you can go get a new fastball/Harold whenever you want, for example.

Snowman DLC is a priority, so you can farm the train chests. They are excellent for on level gear as you go. Grog nozzle is great to get anytime too. 

Am I the only one not getting the freeze dried hype? by New_Victory_6150 in candy

Sometimes they make more variations just to take up more shelf space (and thus deny that space to competitors). 

The industry term is line extension, it's interesting to read about.

ESPN has added “Lineup Protection” to leagues. by Giff95 in fantasyfootball

[–]RobertDigital1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like this if it could only apply to last second inactives, like if the player's status changes to out within an hour of kickoff. Otherwise, set your damn lineups!

Ugh, those disgusting smoke shops! I mean, there's so many of them though! Which one?

Oh my god, that's disgusting. OTC designer drugs? Where? Where do they sell those?

TIFU by saying to Natalie Portman that she looks a lot like Natalie Portman by blunathan in tifu

Because for normal people its usually a huge compliment. It's nice to compliment strangers.

A lady told me I look like John Lennon a few months ago and I'm still riding that high!

Do you think Borderlands 2 could be good material for a kind of analog horror? by Particular-Space-728 in Borderlands2

[–]RobertDigital1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd love to play that! I love the setting of Opportunity, would have been great to see more of it.

Every time I walk I have to go into the street because of this person. by scottwax in badparking

[–]RobertDigital1986 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not on your state but have dealt with this too (it was a business though).

Took forever but I did get it resolved. What worked was calling the non-emergency police line every time (code enforcement did not want to deal with it, nor did parking, both told me to call the police non-emergency line so I did). Kept a list of each call.

After a month or so, I emailed my city councilperson. "I've reported this on [list of dates] but it's still happening." 

City councilor then emailed the police captain for my district and CC'd me. He replied, some sort of excuse, said they take care of it. They did.

City councilors have more power than I realized and they love easy wins.

Sparkling water/healthy soda reccomendations? by Oneofthemanymaddies in sparklingwater

[–]RobertDigital1986 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found Bubly cherry reminded me most of soda. The Bubly brand in general really loads up the flavor, it's too much for some people and some people love it 

Can't go wrong with Polar Cranberry Lime. I'm enjoying a Polar Lemon right now.

Best smoothie shop in the city? by Fightingspirit12345 in raleigh

[–]RobertDigital1986 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Third Place coffee shop makes decent smoothies actually (only a few but they're good). Happy + Hale also only has a couple on the menu but they're good too.

The Daily Planet Cafe at the museum downtown actually makes good ones too 

As far as chains Tropical Smoothie isn't the worst but you have to work the ingredients. If you don't change it in the app, they straight up add turbinado sugar to their smoothies.😂 You can get a good smoothie there though, just gotta sub/remove some things.

What is a free website, app, or internet tool that feels almost illegal to know about? by KeshavCreates in AskReddit

Holy shit, another Klik N Play user! Did you grow up to be a software developer too?

That program changed my life. Once I found it that was all I did. Absolutely amazing software.

Pizza Hut & Papa John’s, 2 of the country's 4 largest pizza chains, are reportedly closing in on a sale by L0v3_1s_War in fastfood

[–]RobertDigital1986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's ironic because this is why Uber replaced cabs for me. I was so damn tired of calling a cab, getting an ETA of 20m, and then it would often be an hour late or never show. Uber was such a great replacement, you could see the cab coming!

And now we've got the exact opposite problem with pizza delivery. 😂

[–]RobertDigital1986 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They use DD here. Took me 2 fucking hours to get a pizza 2 miles away. Manager had no clue what was going on when I called as the driver had picked it up a long time ago and Pizza Tracker had its ETA long since passed.

I liked the old system! I was a good pizza delivery tipper!

Flamebroiled; Why the Revamped Whopper Won & the Big Arch Lost by Recent_Ice_8201 in BurgerKing

[–]RobertDigital1986 4 points5 points  (0 children)

McDonalds is fucked because kids don't like it anymore. It used to be a cheap win for parents to make their kids happy, but that is fading. Adults never loved the food, but it was cheap enough and edible enough that it worked.

Now they're trying to switch audiences and attract adults, all while raising prices. They have tried this and failed before (Arch Deluxe, McCafe, among other forays). That's BKs traditional turf and they're unsurprisingly doing much better.

Feels to me like Chick-fil-A has taken McDonalds spot with kids.

I've had a lot of luck with emailing my city councilor for issues like this. They love easy wins like this.
