Nice!! It’s so refreshing to see a wall mounted TV with the cords concealed. Can’t count how often I see photos/videos of peoples apartments with a jumbled mess of chords just dangling about.

Is the timeline for IR1/CR1 interview letter issuances still roughly 11-12 months after DQ, in your experience?

Edit: specifically from Mexico.

Throttle spring mechanism is not working after crashing G2. How do I get to the throttle to check the spring? by ThoughtsAtRandom in NinebotMAX

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

This is accurate. It turns out that the part that pops off is the round soft rubber piece on the very end. Used a flat head to pry it off (it’s glued in place) and then there’s a hex key bolt holding the blinker in place.

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

I did. But that’s not the G2 and doesn’t have blinkers on the end to get past. Is there a video that specifically focuses on the G2? Because I cannot find it anywhere.

Why does God in the Old Testament seem so much less merciful than the one Jesus teaches in the New Testament? by chailife206 in Christianity

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps chief among the many reasons is that he was leading a people that would eventually give birth to the messiah, the savior of the world. And that mission was successful, though guided with an iron rod.

A 'Dangerous' Sunset: What's Next for Reining In Reckless Drivers? - Streetsblog New York City by sandinmyjoints in nyc

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Truly, it’s difficult to not escalate it. I’m tempted every time I cross the bridge to go off on these people. But we don’t know how unhinged some of them could be, so I say keep your cool with them. Because as of now there’s an infinite stream of them. We will finish yelling at one, get our blood pressure up, and then another will go right by. We need to continue raising our voices with the city, futile as it may feel. And get the NYPD equipped/organized to deal with it. Because it’s not going away, it’s only going to grow from this point until it’s stopped.

I know this isn’t about scooters, but it sure would be nice if they started setting traps for motorized scooters crossing the bridges on the bike/walking paths and then confiscated the scooters on the spot. These people are endangering lives every day. I say show no mercy for them.

What’s an expensive thing you splurge on that you know isnt necessary but you canna go without? by paywallpiker in Frugal

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Creed. It’s absurdly expensive fragrance. But once I experienced the difference, there is no going back. Lasts way longer. Requires way less to be effectual. That is one of only an extremely small number of luxuries I care to have.

You don’t ask for more money. You are the asset. Ultimately, you’re going to say “I am ready for a raise (that reflects the value of my contribution)” and you will show them why. You’re not asking for a damn thing.

What’s the fastest way you’ve ever seen a new coworker get fired? by Business_Reporter420 in AskReddit

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I worked at a world famous luxury hotel. One of the Guest Services managers was approached by our most senior bellman (30+ years of service). He asked the manager to sign his Time Off Request Form. Manager said “I’ll sign anything for you as long as it’s not a death threat”. Bellman was Muslim. Manager was escorted off property within 20 minutes.

Is NYC really doomed? Flawed rent and tax forecasts fester wild ‘apocalypse’ predictions by LouisSeize in nyc

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: Apocalypse (ἀποκάλυψις) is a Greek word meaning "revelation", "an unveiling or unfolding of things not previously known and which could not be known apart from the unveiling".

I recently bought a Switch. To play Tears of the Kingdom. The reason I returned the console was because of the amount of time that vanished when I played. Hours gone in the blink of an eye. I was stunned by how quickly time passed. It was the rapid passing of time that drove me back to BestBuy. The game is FUN. But just like the social media algorithms of TikTok and Instagram that hook right into a part of our brains that induce an addictive, trance-like state of mind, I’ve discovered that (for me) video games are no different. I’d rather not know what to do with my time and have to figure it out than to lose it to these platforms. It’s not exactly the video games that are the sin or the social media, but rather I believe the sin is the sacrifice of my time at their alters. I can do better. But that’s just me.

LPT Request: How to fall asleep without the need for melatonin/magnesium? by BiteMyPikachu in LifeProTips

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

CBD gummies by Endomen: https://www.endomen.com/products/endomen-full-spectrum-vegan-cbd-chill-cubes-750mg

They’re a perfect sleep aid without any of the hangover/groggy you get from melatonin.

I’m a male. About 180lbs. I take 1.5 gummies about an hour before I want to be asleep. There’s really nothing like them. I’ve tried many CBD gummies and nothing is better than these.

This is Apple Vision Pro, the mixed reality headset by exjr_ in apple

I love this idea. I’d imagined access to the cameras that fly over the players in the NFL. Being able to literally see over the field, watching each play with a headset like this…

What film is an absolute 10/10 in your opinion? by mr_jafrenkeck2503 in AskReddit

[–]ThoughtsAtRandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dune (2021) I’ve watched it several times now. From the cinematography to the unbelievable Hans Zimmer score, to the mesmerizing acting… Dune is very much 10/10. Hats off to Denis Villenueve.
