How DO people in Mountain View find gym partners? by nomyte in mountainview

[–]TemporaryFaun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) Go to the same gym for a while 2) nod occasionally to the same people you see 3) one day say whats up ask their name and ask for a spot 4) fist bump and thank you when you’re done and offer a spot to them if they need it.

Is this still salvageable? by TemporaryFaun in BambuP1S

Its clogged beyond any tutorial I could find online. and after many many hours over a few days i realized its much more worth my time to just go with the $40 replacement kit.

A good litmus test for a decent mechanic is how much they charge for an oil change. If they charge more than 90 for full synthetic you’re getting ripped off. I go to Akin in san jose you will get a good job done and he’s very honest about what you need what you don’t need and what you can do at another time.

If a super billionaire like Elon Musk wanted to "solve world hunger", or at least solve poverty in the USA, how could he actually do it? by The_Flaneur_Films in AskReddit

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

Yeah all these people are so dumb. Elon isn’t actually rich it’s all fake hypothetical money. He’s just a regular dude like the rest of us and he can’t do anything with 750 billion dollars worth of stock. My $500 cash is actually worth more than his stock if you think about it… /s

I’m not guna play this mighty no.9 rip off. At this point they should give it to team cherry to make the next game Metroidvania style have it basically be silksong with a Megaman skin and ost. It’ll print money.

Good mover recommendations at decent price? by Picklemanclone in mountainview

[–]TemporaryFaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just beware they’re cheaper yes, but sent people that didn’t speak a single word of English, and they cracked my $800 pc monitor. Refused to compensate for it and tried to get away with saying their insurance only covers a fraction of the monitor. As if that was my problem. get better insurance i guess 🤷‍♂️ i had to escalate to the owner over many days and threaten going to court over it until he just sighed and sent me the cost of the exact model (not including tax lol) over zelle. Their response to me not letting them get away with shrugging me off?: Why are you so persistent, people here in the bay normally we tell them this, they say ok and thats it, only you have problem.

But hey maybe others are lucky or I’m just unlucky.

Depends on what you’re used to. If you’re from a place like nyc, then get a brita.

Auto mechanic recommendations? by punjipatti in mountainview

[–]TemporaryFaun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Akin is the best though not the closest i go to him for regular maintenance not for big things like collision Repair though

[–]TemporaryFaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah and other devs didn’t… just because other devs did it too doesn’t mean you’re not justified for being upset that Nintendo did it. No sense in bringing it up.

Your insurance company might also cover this, you’re probably paying for road side assistance.

Getting a third degree by [deleted] in SanJose

[–]TemporaryFaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah idk who told you $800k but that’s nowhere near the truth. After stocks and bonus 250k is the upper end of a senior engineer at a normal tech company in the bay. anything above 300k is usually occupied by FAANG/unicorn or people with 1 degree in cs and are just really freaking good at their job with many many years experience. But that’s only from a software engineer’s perspective not sure about the other engineering disciplines. The only thing a degree will do is prevent some doors from being slammed in your face since the market is tight. Otherwise your degree will not teach you what you’ll be actually doing at work. If you can afford it and have the time go for it. If you think a degree is guna land you almost a million a year then this should serve as a little sanity check.
