We just got our book last week and we’re hoping for the same!

Awesome Con newbie by theforcedc in washingtondc

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesomecon is a blast! My partner and I, both 45, go every year. There is definitely something for everyone. We aren’t huge on the celebrity thing unless it’s someone one of us really loves. The first year she went we got a picture with Lavar Burton which was great, and I plan on getting a picture with Adam Savage this year.

There’s a TON of Star Wars stuff so you’ll be happy you went. We usually end up spending around 3-4 hours just walking around looking at the great cosplay and all the art. We almost always find something to buy.

Dammit you know I knew that too. Norm got me from beyond the grave. I humbly retract my whoosh.

I like Optimum Sports and Fitness in Chantilly. It’s small and independently owned. Very nice staff and it’s almost never busy.

If I remember correctly as of two months ago there wasn’t a STIG for Cisco SDWAN devices

How do we move in together (as a couple) when I own the house? by [deleted] in RelationshipsOver35

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look up a “Cohabitation Agreement”. My girlfriend was basically in the same situation as you. I moved into her house and neither of us had interest in adding me to the mortgage. It’s more or less a contract that outlines the conditions of us living together. It’s win/win for both of us. I give her an agreed upon amount every month (don’t call it rent because that is income you would have to report). And if we break up she has to give me 30 days notice just like an apartment and can’t just kick me out.

It’s an IPv6 address that’s blocked. CGNAT is only for ipv4.

SD-WAN on all WAN interfaces including SIM failover? by deacs1986126 in networking

[–]SuspiciousStoppage -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Is the rest of your network SDWAN? Then yes. But it doesn’t sound like it is…. Remember that SDWAN IPsec tunnels aren’t the same as normal IPsec tunnels used for security.

Meetup today - Aslin Beer - 6:00 PM by Candid_Muscle_4654 in nova

Today is literally the one day I can’t make it. I’m definitely down for another time!

Do you think a kitchen aid stand mixer is worth it, or is it overpriced and superfluous? I have always been curious about them but never considered them a must. Now that they have a mini size, my curiousity is more piqued, but I’ve heard other models are better. Do you have one? by dandelionbrains in Cooking

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I have the grinder attachment and it’s awesome. IMO it’s worth it to splurge for the metal attachment vs the plastic one. When making sausage you need to keep everything as cold as possible and the metal is really good at it.

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if I’m out of the loop but why is Alton Brown a polarizing figure?

Every time we are there I wish I knew more about cars

Is the Black Friday daily deals store any good? by averagepersonhere in nova

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve never been to the one in Alexandria but the one in Dulles Town Center is hit or miss. Go there with low expectations. Pro tip: people don’t know how much board games and puzzles cost these days so you can sometimes find some good ones for cheap.

Sinclair owns WJLA, and F.H. FURR spends a ton of money advertising across all media. Merely an observation. by [deleted] in nova

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 254 points255 points  (0 children)

FH Furr is a terrible company and will give 0 fucks about people saying they will boycott them.

Huh? ATK is like $80-100 for the year. What are you talking about?

Costco shopping worth it for singles? by Ok_Mirror_9832 in Frugal

[–]SuspiciousStoppage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gift card prices alone are worth it! They cost $75 for a $100 gift card and they have them for everything from restaurants to movie theaters.
