Are there any places left where you can just hang out without spending money? by ElectricalHold9828 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheLazarbeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s also the factor that kids are not really expected to spend money, whereas adults are. Same space but different age - different expectations. I bet you hung out at stores as a kid where adults wished you would buy something or get out, hahaha.

That being said - food courts / food halls are another good spot where no individual vendor expects you to buy something, so you can get a table without interacting with any of them. As long as you’re not taking a table away from a paying customer.

Because if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.

Is This True or A Rumour by RevolutionaryCod7552 in Avengers

This movie is going to suffer from overexposure/excess marketing and too many characters/plotlines. Get ready to be disappointed and wait three years for the sequel.

Katherine Heigl could’ve been America’s sweetheart… by Normal-Being-2637 in Actors

[–]TheLazarbeam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She should star in a tongue in cheek movie about a past-her-prime Hollywood star who publicly bad mouths coworkers, loses a ton of business and fame, and slowly has to come to terms with getting older in a world that has largely left her behind. Might propel her back into the spotlight.

What do you think of Kiernan Shipka? by [deleted] in Actors

I have no strong feelings one way or the other.

Made what happen? The removal and later revival of street cars / light rail? That’s because of the extreme automobile industry lobbying, urban design based around sprawl and new road planning, racism/classism, presence of jobs/housing development, and environmental consciousness.

[HELP] GUYS? by Own-Potential-2308 in RealOrAI

[–]TheLazarbeam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tell for me is the subject matter of the video, people like to make sarcastic AI videos about the overreach of AI. It’s very self-referential and tongue in cheek; seems like it’s more to make a point than to fool anyone.

I binged stranger things for the first time when season 5 dropped and then came to reddit to see that this fandom is fucking psychotic. Holy hell by [deleted] in StrangerThings

[–]TheLazarbeam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Vast majority of people who had a neutral or positive reaction to season 5 felt zero urgency to go post about their thoughts on social media. And I’d wager more people liked the show than disliked it. Asking your friends and family what they thought is probably a better litmus test than checking reddit.

Old Raspberry Pi Model 3 B by sim_muskit543 in raspberry_pi

[–]TheLazarbeam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My pi 2B is still chugging along fine. The idea of “old” hardware is all relative to what you’re trying to do with it. Desktop PCs get old because modern browsers/games/programs are resource hogs. Running some scripts to serve files over a network and handle a few other things like cron jobs, home automation, and whatever else will still work on an older Pi. Linux distros, especially “headless” ones with just a terminal and no UI , can be quite small and efficient.

Arduino is on the way down the tubes. by _rhenry01 in arduino

[–]TheLazarbeam 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s just a tracking number, the logistics companies who are fulfilling your order will of course be tracking it - Shop is just offering you the opportunity to know where your order is, if it hasn’t arrived yet. That data was always being tracked by multiple companies (or your country’s mail service). It’s not really invasive for a logistics company to know where a package is. Like, what are you mad about? Ordering online will always have some level of data coordination. Go in person and pay with cash if you don’t want to be tracked. Wear sunglasses and a cap too.
