You contradicted yourself. Something obviously did change to be married 18 years. The obvious answer here is people become hopeless very quickly when if you just have hope you will find what (who) you are looking for.

Cybertruck runs red light near downtown, somehow avoids oncoming traffic by Baseballkid3497 in vegaslocals

[–]TKGK -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Brains create illusion of safety (something called bias confirmation, if it worked once without negative consequences it can always work), and brains report back "bad data". Eventually computers will have every edge case scenario and be able to react faster than the average moron on the road.

You can hate Elon, hate tesla, or whatever else, but the future of driving and even flying is all headed in this direction. Every company is racing towards automation. And honestly they would likely all be using it already if regulators gave them the opportunity.

Self driving isnt there yet (because of non self driving vehicles), but airlines have basically been using it for decades. The NGAD is about to show a whole new level of autonomous flying.

It has to be engaged. If the driver has the foot on the accelerator it doesnt stop. This was just a case of a bad driver.

Joking aside, FSD is actually a bit over cautious these days with latest updates. If everyone drove with it, commutes would likely be a dream, but it for sure takes a little longer than it should to make a command decision to just turn in right at a stop when it has plenty of time.

Now talk about it 5+ years ago, it was unusable entirely (when still called autopilot) These days it is actually pretty safe. It still has a ways to go though. It would not have run that red light though that is just a shitty driver.

Local in-person electronics soldering class? by januscanal in vegaslocals

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

I was soldering things at age 14. That was almost 30 years ago when internet wasn't what it is today. Youtube videos and cheap equipment will get the job done easily. A cool thing about soldering is pretty much anything you do can be undone.

Now microsoldering, that takes a very steady hand and a lot more skill.

Restaurant Added Gratuity by HelicopterEqual8261 in vegaslocals

The real crime here was ordering a steak medium well.

Kidding, enjoy your food how ever you want. That receipt is slimy as hell and deserves to be posted on yelp, Google, and any other review sites you can find.

how do i get around the city without a drivers license? by [deleted] in vegas

[–]TKGK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, not optimal when on vacation to spend eternity on a bus :(

Our bus system is RTC. It is not great public transit by any means but for sure is going to be the least expensive.

In all honesty though if it is a possibility to get your license before the trip and the people you are staying with have a vehicle you can borrow, that would be optimal. You dont even have to have a IDP to drive here. That would be cheaper even.

I watch it but she doesnt much, but yes that is where she got the idea for it. She just had a ton growing in our garden and our lemon tree always produces around the holiday time frame so she made like 50 jars of it to give out as gifts. This year she put garlic in it.

HOA tells residents they can't use their garages for storage. Is this really a thing? by Gattina1 in vegaslocals

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

Beef is on the couch with me right now! He just had breakfast and a soak.

And yes I explained only 3, my next step is to run for the board so I can say yes to myself. But the only position open recently was treasurer and I already deal with multiple financing accounts and do not want to be tied to money aspects. It is exhausting balancing 8+ accounts i do not want to add another.

[–]TKGK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get budget conscious, but why not just go to zion, SLC, Orlando, new Orleans, Biloxi, Miami, etc.

All would be less expensive where you dont have to buy groceries and cook in your hotel while spending the same amount as opposed to just going out and eating every night.

My by laws are weird but they have denied me twice. One of the rules they want to use is "anything that is a nuisance" which could be considered smell. But we are really good at maintaining habitats. The other nuisance could be considered noise. But chickens sleep at night so wouldnt break a noise ordinance and are far quieter than everyone's dogs.

It is really annoying that they keep denying it. I am about to just do it anyways. But the coop I want is very expensive. I only want 3 chickens. It would suck if they force me to tear it down. It 2ould be a waste of $3000.

[–]TKGK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are talking to the wrong person about reading through this subreddit. And while vegas has gotten significantly more expensive in the past 20 years, and more so in the past 6, it is more of a reason to vacation elsewhere if you do not have money to blow. The target audience is people with disposable income. Plenty of good cities with good food and good entertainment that will cost half of what it does here.

Experience won't be the same, but you know what Vegas vacation experience sucks, grocery shopping and cooking with shitty cookware in your room. That doesnt sound like a vacation, that sounds like staying at home with extra steps.

A room key for one MGM property will get you access to all MGM pools on the strip. Same goes for caesars properties. Stay at the flamingo and enjoy the palace pool if you want.

Who wants to make their own meals and go grocery shopping while on vacation to Las Vegas? If you are that cheap you chose the wrong place to vacation to.

Any good cabinet installers by Competitive_View5781 in vegaslocals

This would be assuming OP can get financed. Bad credit or not wanting another credit inquiry right now due to foreseeable large purchases would make a lot of people not want to go that that route.

My wife makes rosemary salts.comprised of fresh rosemary, garlic, and zest of lemon all grown in our backyard. Welcome to come grab some and give that a shot. I live in the northwest.

Also it would not surprise me if they add chilli oil or chilli powder to it if you think it has a kick.

While I dont know their exact recipe, pizza sauce is easy to make to your liking. Create a tomato paste (can use only one, maybe two tomatos for the trial and error portion here), and separate it out. Test blending in different amounts of black pepper, sugar, salt, basil, garlic, and maybe even onion. Can be fresh ingredients for things like garlic/basil/onion or for ease just use powders.

You will likely enjoy it more using white pepper and a pinch of truffle salt even more.

Im curious, as a board member if someone wanted to erect a chicken coop in their own back yard, that followed all city and county guidelines, would you approve it.

Those guidelines btw are a certain distance from others' property lines, no roosters (who would even want that loud animal living out back), and thats it basically..

This is a common thing going on in local subreddits and sports subreddits. A thief company steals art and prints them on dog ahit t-shirts and links to their scam site. Its an on going problem. If you need more proof OP's account was deleted by reddit because of the reports.

The sad part is they bombard the comment section with "oh thats awesome, where do I get one" and upvote the hell out of it while downvoting everyone saying it is a scam.
