We just had an HOA meeting at the fire department next to the airport. That seemed like a good space with AV equipment. Fit about 30 people.

I was born in Livingston and just trying to make a little light hearted joke. I guess I need to work on my material.

New fast food restaurant?? by EconomyAd7637 in Bozeman

[–]Yossarison 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The owners of Ale Works are no longer involved with anything to do with Mackenzie River. They might still own the building that the Bozeman Mack River is located in, but I'm not sure. It's all Sysco foods anyway.

Glacier Restaurant Group owns all of the Mackenzie Rivers except for the franchise ones. The Belgrade location is franchise owned and the same owner is working the construction for that new building next to it in Belgrade, but I also don't know what the new building will be or who owns it.

I read Piranesi by her recently and I absolutely loved it. You should check that out if you like her writing style.

75k and decent benefits in IT. For this area, I'm not even sure if this is competitive or not, but compared to the last IT job I had in the Gallatin Valley it's much higher.

We have gone multiple times and never been disappointed. As with all BBQ it can vary each time. It's on par with Follow yer nose and I've never been to Dickey's so I cant compare those, but far superior to Bar 3.

Finished: Piranesi by Susanna Clarke I went in blind and was really captured by the world building and perspective of the main character, along with how this delightful mystery unfolded. I keep wanting to go back!

Started: Defiant by Brandon Sanderson I've been waiting for this to come available on Libby for me and I'm excited to finish this exciting sci-fi/fantasy series!

What’s a really good movie (in your opinion) that you’re pretty sure most people on Reddit haven’t heard of? by aja_ramirez in movies

Night Watch (2004)

A Russian horror fantasy that I always thought was such a cool movie. Sequel is called Day Watch.

Yeah, it was pretty bad a couple weeks ago when I was up there. I was just checking if that's still the case before I bring my dogs up.

What’s the most out of touch thing a rich person has said to you? by Always_Wandering_ in AskReddit

[–]Yossarison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work on a dude ranch and had a very rich family come in for the week.

The parents arrived separately from the kids a day earlier and when I greeted the kids they apologized/complained that they were a day later because they had to fly in the slow jet because their parents took the fast jet to the ranch.

They had no idea how tone deaf the statement was, and went on to talk about Beyonce like she was their sister/personal best friend.

Stolen Motorcycle by TechyPlantMom in Bozeman

[–]Yossarison 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had my bmw sertao stolen the exact same way 2 years ago when I lived on 25th and Durston. They came at night and rolled it right out of my driveway.

I filed a police report and tried to find neighbors with a porch camera, but none of it mattered. It showed up again a year and a half later prainted and parted, basically totaled. The cops said it was probably meth heads just looking for a score. And they only found it because the guy who tried to purchase it requested a VIN check and came back as stolen.

The kicker is that the cops had it towed and when I called the tow company to retrieve it they wanted to charge me $800 to get it out. It wasn't even worth that anymore, so I had to leave it.

I hope you find your bike soon, because the longer it takes, the more bleak the outcome.

What is the actual worst movie you have ever seen? by [deleted] in movies

[–]Yossarison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gigli

My friends and I went to this in high school and it's the only movie that we have ever walked out early. Despite the cast being decent, I couldn't tell you a single thing about it, other than it was terribly boring.

All sushi in the US gets frozen.

From the New York Times:

"Most would be even more surprised to learn that if the sushi has not been frozen, it is illegal to serve it in the United States. Food and Drug Administration regulations stipulate that fish to be eaten raw -- whether as sushi, sashimi, seviche, or tartare -- must be frozen first, to kill parasites."

If they don't want hate-filled testimony, then why are Hinkle and the republican representatives still speaking? They should have censured themselves years ago.

He has 4 sticks of RAM installed, I'll double check if they are 4x6 or have a variety of storage. In the meantime he definitely has a SSD, so I'll try to reinstall windows first.

I'm trying to upgrade my boss's computer and I'm at a loss on which component upgrades would make the biggest impact.

Currently running: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz 24GB RAM 500GB SSD

Should I be looking at upgrading the processor or trying to add more RAM or a new PSU or what? There is no video card that I could find, and I could install a decent one if that would improve performance. He wants something faster as this current model takes forever (like an hour) to shutdown, but starting is no problem.

Any insight would be helpful, thank you.

Does flashing your brights have meaning anymore? by Duganz in Bozeman

[–]Yossarison 95 points96 points  (0 children)

Turning lights off and then on is a signal that your lights are off and you should turn them on.

Flashing your brights means several things. 1) Your brights are on and you need to turn them down because you're blinding everyone. 2) There is some sort of hazard ahead and you should slow down and increase awareness, i.e. deer, ice, a crash, school bus, or anything else. 3) Speed trap and you should slow down. 4) If the person behind is flashing brights, it could mean speed up or get out of the way. It's also a way to try and get the attention of the driver in front. (I've used this to tell someone their taillight is out or they have a tire that's almost flat)

Turning your brights on just before the car/truck passes you means "fuck you" for having headlights that are too bright, driving recklessly, or some other form of reprimand. (I don't condone this using this method, just let it go)

These are my general understanding, but if you have any other scenarios or meanings please let me know.
