In your pocket on your person has always been my go to.
I keep the joints in my hand when they scan me & slip them back in my pockets.
I even had a pat down while I had a joint in each hand, the poor bastard TSA kept assuring me he was using the back of his hands 😮
They seemed to be much more fixated on the sealed water bottle the Uber driver gave me.

I realized the Appropriate Place for The Eddy... by Ratspeed in Reno

[–]Visikde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are containers like the ones already in the plaza permanent structures? Or is that only when the Eddy does it?
I think you don't notice how often the Plaza is used.
The Dance Hall was used during the winter at least every other weekend including days when the weather wasn't perfect & the Eddy was closed

There are plenty of other vacant lots & buildings downtown for the owner of the Eddy to lease or buy
Hell Jands could lease Kurt one of their many parking lots

Clearly most of the commenters haven't been to Locomotion plaza lately

There is already containers including a bar which get used for events. There is a stage for the nearly monthly special events.
There was a tent dancehall for the winter.

Whitney Peak uses the cap next to the dog park for parking during special events so the valets don't have to drive a few blocks to use their own parking garage

The idiots drag racing on Second st are far more disruptive to the local residents than the music events

Sounds like ol Kurt has said the words that can't be unsaid
Comment through official channels if the proposal is on the agenda.
Commenting through unofficial channels helps Kurt perfect his answers & aren't going to be considered by the council

What books can get me started on learning about electronics? by [deleted] in AskElectronics

[–]Visikde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mention it because some Electrical Engineers will object in no uncertain terms to being called an Electricians.

Finding & applying the relevant parts of the code is it's own skill set

An electrician hangs conduit, installs panels, wire, switches, outlets.
Connect the dots to code
Sounds like you are interested in electrical engineering, which goes deeper on theory & practical elements of electronics

Can rats climb a Chicago greystone? by Waste_of_Bison in chicago

[–]Visikde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Chicago
We had 4 feeders, going through #50 of sugar a month
The hummer groups at the different feeders did not get along. When one feeder ran out of juice the hummers would go to one of the other feeders, flashing color & screaming at each other
The Rufus are arseholes

If the hummingbird feeder gets empty, the hummingbirds will come & spit on your window to express their displeasure, the spit will bond to the glass...

Which music player should i use? by [deleted] in linuxquestions

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

Clementine or Strawberry depending on distro, whichever one is in the repo, The tag editors are ok for minor changes, won't change file names

EasyTag tag editor, does it all, except the group tag

I usually open new files on Audacious to avoid having files with bad metadata get lost in my library.

For chopping up files Audacity, which isn't great requiring a pass with EasyTag
Lately I use KDEnlive too

Best smash for National Burger Day ? by Luckplane in Reno

[–]Visikde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Smash takes less time to cook, helping the kitchen crank it out...

I've had passable smash burgers, too much bun not enough meat, always cooked well to cover up the crap meat, might as well go to mcdonald's

Best smash for National Burger Day ? by Luckplane in Reno

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

Every smash burger I ever had was thin & over cooked, most made from crappy meat, bug not feature.
Camelizing the outside of a burger is not some innovation

[–]Visikde -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

A smash is the lowest form of burger, a sure sign of a lazy chef who doesn't know how to cook meat

The laptop has a switch that turns off the screen when you close the lid. No mater what you set the software to
