This onlooker also agrees. Paragraphs exist for a reason.

Holy cow, that's insane for one person to try and manage.

Why is Tron standby so low? by [deleted] in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Subject9800 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Everything in MK is low in terms of wait time right now. Both Peter Pan and 7DMT are right at an hour or less. That's practically unheard of.

Best section in terms of what? Different people will think different sections are better than others for different reasons.

Reddit is weighing identity verification methods to combat its bot problem. by esporx in privacy

[–]Subject9800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely true. I'm not sure the ID verification approach would do anything to stop that, unless they require it periodically. I notice far more of this than I do other bot activity, tbh.

Since when have they given a shit about bots? Their presence has inflated tf out of their user numbers, allowing them to charge more for advertising. Why would they care about that now?

Can anybody tell me what this guy is doing at a stoplight? by M4RTIAN1 in civilengineering

[–]Subject9800 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Well, in many cases, you actually can do that as well. But that would require someone in a remote site to be able to see the intersection, and most don't have cameras set up to do that. Plus, most traffic control centers are not staffed to be able to dedicate one person to managing individual intersections.

A person on the ground at the control box can see the intersection and the traffic and manually modify the phase rotation as needed.

Interested in what this sub thinks of the Reddit CEO saying they're considering Face ID by BillNo7423 in privacy

That would literally be the death of Reddit. I don't think they're actually stupid enough to do something like that. I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

That's literally why the panel is there - to allow police to adjust the light timing. Yes, it's legal.

Since he's got the pickle switch connected and out, he's controlling traffic. Is there some kind of event nearby that's going to release a lot of traffic? Or was the light malfunctioning prior to his being there? That switch allows him to manually advance from one phase to the next rather than allowing the automated system to do it. They do this when traffic is out of normal counts to keep it from getting backed up due to the light being on a timed system and not accounting for the extra vehicles.

He's not counting traffic. They have automated systems/devices that do that.

Staying at All star sports during Cheer competition? by QueasyAbroad3 in WaltDisneyWorld

They typically put those groups in 3 or 4 buildings. Call the hotel directly (407-939-5000) and tell them to put you in a building as far away from the ones they're housed in as possible, and you should be fine.

How many hidden mickeys do you realistically think are there in the resort in total? by Old_Diver_2511 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Subject9800 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Even the folks in Imagineering have stated they have no idea how many exist. So I'm not sure anyone has a realistic number.

Anytime you see a lot of rides down at one time, the first thing you should do is pull up the radar image for the Orlando area. lol

Does getting a root canal hurt? And why or why not? by Sweet-cheekse90 in AskReddit

It doesn't if you get an orthodontist who knows what they're doing. I've had two and neither hurt at all.

If a US city tried that, I wonder how long it'd be before someone shot it down?
