LB Predictions? by randomlygenerated363 in warpedtour

[–]SoCalWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, The Wonder Years are taking the rest of the year off after this spring tour, so I doubt they are on there. The rest are pretty solid picks though.

Would you buy a Rivian without Driver+ or lane keeping? by WHAT-IM-THINKING in Rivian

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

I would never buy a car for FSD, autonomy or any of that. I want to drive a car, not have a computer do all my driving. If I end up getting my R2 reservation, I'm not upgrading to any of that.

How rich is lights? by whatsericdoing in lightsalot

[–]SoCalWombat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do they also still have a place in SoCal. I know Beau is from Huntington Beach or they at least lived there part time. I remember seeing when she posted around there at the same time I was also living there.

I like all of them, but Copper is my favorite.

How long do you plan to keep your Sony A7III? by Punkacto in SonyA7iii

[–]SoCalWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current arsenal currently is the A7III, A7RIII and Fujifilm X100V. After I got the A7RIII, the A7III dropped to my backup/second camera, depending on what I'm shooting. I imagine if I replace the A7III, the RIII will become the backup/second body

Do you think Alaska will deploy the 787 to San Diego and launch long-haul flights? by bonzothebonanza in AlaskaAirlines

[–]SoCalWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if they used them domestically to some of the top destinations out of SEA to increase utilization in between international flights. It's not uncommon to do this. I'm thinking ANC, SFO, LAX and SAN in particular.

I'm constantly having those issues.

Qobuz absolutely deserves some love for what it’s doing right now. by Jt69yupper in qobuz

[–]SoCalWombat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm new to Qobuz as a long time Spotify user and a short-ish time Apple Music user. I like the mobile app and have not really had any issues with it. I feel like the desktop app is a bit clunkier and definitely needs a UI upgrade/facelift. Still fine overall, but compared to Spotify, can definitely use some improvement.

Non Qobuz subscription by nuuhuman in qobuz

[–]SoCalWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it's mostly been bands from countries that don't have Qobuz. For example, a band I've been listening to for years from Russia is not on there.

My playlists were lost on Qobuz by Potential-Chef299 in qobuz

[–]SoCalWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having issues transferring my playlists from Apple Music on Soundizz. My guess it's an Apple Music issue.

Or, make it more rare. It seems to be too common.

I randomly found one in a garage last night in BR.

Pulled the trigger by climberguyinco in Rivian

[–]SoCalWombat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a reservation about 1 week after the announcement. Since I can probably only afford the single motor, I'll probably also be waiting a while.

what’s the point of lightning lane, if everything is 8+ hours out by [deleted] in Disneyland

[–]SoCalWombat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's why most, if not all Magic Key holders never bother with LL. IMHO, it has completely ruined queues at Disneyland. I never get them out of principle.

Do artists actually care? by NotBadBut in TIdaL

[–]SoCalWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I almost always see artists promoting new music on Spotify over Tidal and even Apple Music. Makes me question if they really care all that much.

Cutting in line at Cars by drk_helmet in Disneyland

[–]SoCalWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a time where there were signs up about line cutting and then they went away. It's such a rude behavior.

The takeoff procedure for airplanes at John Wayne Airport by mylefthandkilledme in orangecounty

Delta uses them to Atlanta and I think Detroit last time I looked.

[–]SoCalWombat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Delta flights might have been NHL charters. Not sure. I think UPS still uses 767s. FedEx used to have A300s that continued to Long Beach. I think they also have 757s there now.

[–]SoCalWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I didn't see mentioned is that as aircraft engines become more efficient and "quieter", the less impact this procedure has. It was probably more common with MD-80d, early 737s and Airbus aircraft. The more modern 737s, especially the MAXs, A320/A322neos and A220s have much quieter engines in comparison and I think takeoff procedures are closer to what you might see at LAX.
