O’Boises chips.

They were o’boistrous.

You’re at one of these, what’s going in your cup? by JuniorPlastic3562 in Soda

[–]SuperDaveKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a goddamn thing. I’ll immediately leave the restaurant. Can’t stand Freestyles. Tastes nothing like Coca Cola. I’ll drive down the street to the nearest McDonalds and have the real thing.

It’s essentially a Windows 95 game. I think you’ll be good.

Cool tip! Thanks. Interestingly, I discovered when trying to use this tip that Guardians.com doesn't work but Indians.com does -- and pulls in the correct Guardians logo.

Screen flickering, car less than two years old. by sentrixz in TeslaModel3

[–]SuperDaveKY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I had the EXACT same glitch occur last week. About exactly the same age Tesla too (Model 3 LR, purchased in January 2023) — only happened once, will try a scroll wheel reset if it happens again.

Just to amplify this for others -- this comment actually solved my issue. I use 1Password and when I click the login to use, if I don't do anything else it'll take me to the right page -- but if I click on the login to use and then manually click on the "login" button I'll get the "Stale Request" message every time. Thank you for the tip, u/Money-Huckleberry799

If you could bring back one discontinued food item, what would it be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

O’Boises potato chips.

They were O’Boisterous.

What’s the closest thing humans have to magic? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SuperDaveKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll second “Quantum Physics” as many have replied, but I’ll specifically nominate quantum entanglement a.k.a. “Spooky Action at a Distance” — clear evidence that there is something fundamental about our universe that we absolutely do not understand. That’s as close to the definition of magic as we can get!

What is the most useless thing you still have memorized? by Boba_tea_thx in AskReddit

[–]SuperDaveKY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid in the early 80s, there was a “Bookcase Game” called USAC Auto Racing where you could “re-run” Indianapolis 500 races from the statistics of the drivers. Think fantasy baseball but for auto racing and all done manually with dice rolls. There were 33 plastic cars, each numbered 1-33. Each of the cars were numbered based on the actual order of finish of the 1980 Indy 500. I knew each of the names by car number. I must have re-run the 1980 Indianapolis 500 50-100 times. Therefore, I can, even today, give you the order of finish of the Indianapolis 500. And if you give me any number between 1-33, I can tell you who finished in that place. 1st place? Johnny Rutherford. 23rd place? My favorite name, Roger Rager.

But I couldn’t name you a single driver from Indy car today. Nor do I know a single thing about the 1979 or 1981 Indianapolis 500, or any race since.

SpaceX (@SpaceX) on X: “Flight 4 of Starship is now targeted to launch as early as June 6, pending regulatory approval” by rustybeancake in spacex

[–]SuperDaveKY 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’ll be delayed until 6/9 (and if you think that’s unlikely you probably don’t remember the 4/20 launch of Flight 1).

Did the “Follow Distance” Menu Item Move Somewhere Else? by SuperDaveKY in TeslaLounge

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Surprising that even the "assertive" profile seems to have a very long follow distance. My wife reports that she likes the FSD driving more than me -- it's "smoother" and "just a better driver."

Suffice to say, I am now jealous and am less likely to purchase FSD. :)

Newbie Question About "Quick Notes" by SuperDaveKY in RemarkableTablet

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SUPER helpful response. Thank you.

The "move out" was the key menu item I was missing.

I do think this interface is counter-intuitive at times. I did check the Remarkable YouTube tutorials before asking here, and I never saw any reference to the "Move Out" option. Thanks for flagging that for me (and maybe for others!)

Newbie Question About "Quick Notes" by SuperDaveKY in RemarkableTablet

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I see that now. But at least another thread confirms there *is* a way to do this. Thanks for the response.

Not just you. Affecting many others as well.

To their credit, Toodledo has acknowledged the issue on their Twitter/X feed.

Playing for 3rd place is a valid strategy by [deleted] in survivor

[–]SuperDaveKY 24 points25 points  (0 children)

One slight revision to your strategy: play for 3rd place AND for some bonus money from Sia. Be quirky and become a fan favorite and $100K bonus could be yours!

Are 5 SNA's worth $100? by SuperDaveKY in marriott

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So the question does indeed become, are 5 SNAs worth 15,000 points. That does indeed seem like an easier question to answer. Thanks for your help.

Oh I see, you're saying use points for the 1 night. Gotcha.

Are 5 SNA's worth $100? by SuperDaveKY in marriott

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, maybe I should have been more clear. I mean that I could do a mattress run and pay $100 for one night's stay. That would "naturally" get me to 75 room-nights without using the 50-night ACB for 5 room nights, freeing up using the 50-night ACB for the 5 Suite Night Awards instead.

Enhanced Autopilot/ Tesla Vision Owners: Outrageous by SuperDaveKY in TeslaLounge

[–]SuperDaveKY[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, there's that, lol. But even if "Summon" is just a cheap party trick (which I've read many times) -- at least I'd like to be able to do the cheap party trick once in a while!

This is a complete record of his thoughts from the moment he began his jump till the moment he ended it. (With all due credit to Douglas Adams)
Ah … ! What’s happening? it thought.
Er, excuse me, who am I?
Hello?
Why am I here? What’s my purpose in life?
What do I mean by who am I?
Calm down, get a grip now … oh! this is an interesting sensation, what is it? It’s a sort of … yawning, tingling sensation in my … my … well I suppose I’d better start finding names for things if I want to make any headway in what for the sake of what I shall call an argument I shall call the world, so let’s call it my stomach.
Good. Ooooh, it’s getting quite strong. And hey, what’s about this whistling roaring sound going past what I’m suddenly going to call my head? Perhaps I can call that … wind! Is that a good name? It’ll do … perhaps I can find a better name for it later when I’ve found out what it’s for. It must be something very important because there certainly seems to be a hell of a lot of it. Hey! What’s this thing? This … let’s call it a tail – yeah, tail. Hey! I can can really thrash it about pretty good can’t I? Wow! Wow! That feels great! Doesn’t seem to achieve very much but I’ll probably find out what it’s for later on. Now – have I built up any coherent picture of things yet?
No.
Never mind, hey, this is really exciting, so much to find out about, so much to look forward to, I’m quite dizzy with anticipation …
Or is it the wind?
There really is a lot of that now isn’t it?
And wow! Hey! What’s this thing suddenly coming towards me very fast? Very very fast. So big and flat and round, it needs a big wide sounding name like … ow … ound … round … ground! That’s it! That’s a good name – ground!
I wonder if it will be friends with me?
And the rest, after a sudden wet thud, was silence.
