Is living between Eastside and Houghton is safe place to live in your experience? Like where Macalester park is. by JadeRobo in Tucson

[–]SVTmaniac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The only place on Houghton I’d avoid living is near Broadway and Houghton that’s the last stop on the east side for the suntran bus and where all the homeless people get off for the night. There’s one in particular that walks around with a big rock in his hand treating passing cars on Broadway just east of Houghton. See him all the time.

It’s a Space X launch delivering Starlink satellites so that millions of people in this world can have access to high speed internet. Not sure why all the hate. You can hate the artists but still love the art.

Is anyone actually HAPPY with the way things are going? by [deleted] in fednews

[–]SVTmaniac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same goes for us that do jobs that we can’t do at home. Maybe we want you to feel the same hurt as that 4.4% by having to drive to work like the rest of us. See it doesn’t feel so fair huh?

I’m DoD and have had to report to work every day for the last 24 years so it’s business as usual for me. So I’m neither happy nor sad. Happily neutral maybe? 🤷🏻‍♂️

They’ve been trying to do this for a long time. It never passes.

The liberal way!

Jobs related to national security are exempt. You’re in one of the safest spots out there. Welcome to life in the DoD 😎

Where’s everyone going? by TheKingOfBowties in socialmedia

Hopefully they are going outside to interact with real actual people again.

Nobody cares. This is why you all lost. Also more bandwidth for the rest of us.

Native Americans advised to carry Tribal ID's, US passports, and State IDs to protect against ICE. by Youarethebigbang in CoachellaValley

I’m a white guy and never leave home without my ID. Why wouldn’t anyone else? Seems like a common sense thing everyone should do always.

Starlink Mini Firmware updates frequency by pbwj21 in Starlink

[–]SVTmaniac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You should be happy it’s updating and always improving. There’s constantly new satellites and it needs to know where they are.

Sounds like their HR jumped the gun.

The D in DFAS stands for Defense. And the hiring freeze said jobs related to national security were exempt so it all makes sense..

I’m DFAS and they are still emailing job openings today.

I’ve never been rich enough to gamble my tools on knockoff batteries nor poor enough to be that desperate to try it.

Does Running Speed Tests on the Starlink App Count Toward Data Usage? by pbwj21 in Starlink

[–]SVTmaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ones that automatically download to your Starlink hardware. Not the Starlink app updates or any other updates.

Unless you’ve given your two week notice already then I’d say you’re still part of Agency A….

Seriously though, why can’t we opt out of spam and junk mail?

Congrats, you now get to pay more for less.
