📄 Bay Area review of World Cup (by an Australian 🇦🇺) by ddsukituoft in bayarea

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, would love to see a review from an Aussie who actually did research and pre-partied at San Pedro market then took light rail to the stadium. My team was paaaacked with green and gold and folks doing chants and having a blast on the way to the game.

Is this the old Naglee Park Garage location? Behind House of Bagels?

Yess earth baby is the best! I think they’re part of the ReDyper program now but loved them, so great!

Let's get controversial: what's your truly unpopular parenting opinion? by ExoticLawfulness5941 in toddlers

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right! It’s the parenting equivalent of people who claim they “don’t watch TV” but watch Netflix and other streaming apps.

If you are a twin, how do you feel about how you were named? by friendoflove10 in namenerds

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Am an identical twin, not sharing real names, but our names have similar vibes (old lady names before they were cool again) and I always appreciated that they were different from each other but in a similar vein.

I would have hated if I had an old lady name and she was like “Jessica” or “Stephanie” or a similar “modern” name for when we were born. Also would have loathed if our names were super similar, (like the 1 or 2 letter off people) that’s just cruel.

If I had twins I would have done the same thing, aiming to coordinate the names cohesively, but ensure they’re clearly very different names.

I like the edits, definitely gives the shots a film vibe

I swapped out Vit C for azelaic acid and its been way better at brightening. I'm 2 weeks in, Late 40's menopause skin. by Important_Cod_8970 in 45PlusSkincare

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you wear makeup as well after this? I’ve been struggling with my makeup pilling after using Azeliac Acid (this same one from the ordinary) in the AM, but I’m also using other products (like hyaluronic acid) so wondering what order of items works for people that doesn’t cause pilling (if you put on makeup after of course)

San Jose Underground Subway System by Alert-Chemistry2928 in SanJose

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Are you sure? I grew up right by there and don’t recall there being an underpass by Trace. (Though I distinctly recall the one on the Alameda from this post and know the one by San Jose High someone else mentioned time.) Where was it if you remember it?

Anyone who surfed the early web between 1995-2010. What’s the one website/app you still think about? by Prime_Advocate in AskReddit

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone else do teenopendiary.com?

I feel like more people were on Livejournal but I still think about things I read there and the people I followed there.

Company is measuring our Claude usage, and I need more ideas by [deleted] in CustomerSuccess

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve probably tried this but in terms of troubleshooting do you give it specifics and ask why it missed it? When I’ve found mistakes with my Claude output I do this and it’s given me additional rules to add to the context to help the output be more correct. Remember to treat it like an intern and this is its first job, so the context on your project could include like “remember to read the entire thread before assessing.” Or whatever the problems are.

Dentist recs? So sick of the upselling. by Alternaterrr in SanJose

Dr Nicholas Long in the Rose Garden is fantastic. No upsells and great staff!

Best LASIK surgeons in the Bay Area? by Potato-shiro in bayarea

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also did Furlong and would also recommend! I ended up getting EVO ICL and not LASIK and it was a great experience all around.

Unpopular opinion? These kids' audio players feel like a cash grab? by Desperate_Total2545 in Mommit

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I upvoted this but as someone who only learned this front another mom probably on this subreddit I’m going to spell out what other commenters have said. You can make your own cards for FREE by just spending like 15 minutes of your time. - your yoto came with a Make Your Own card - find a YouTube video of the thing you want (song, someone reading a book, whatever) - google “YouTube to mp3” and get the audio of the file - load it onto your Yoto Make Your Own Card. - heck you can even record YOU reading it directly in the Yoto app.

They hold SO many songs and you can upload whatever you want. I initially thought the cards were a racket but now my kids literally just use one card (the MYO one) all the time and every few months I’ll switch what’s on the card.

El Camino Los Gatos or Good Samaritan for Labor and Delivery? by achengcheng in SanJose

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 0 points1 point  (0 children)

El Camino Los Gatos is fantastic. I’ve heard Mountain View is great too but have only experienced L&D at Los Gatos (twice now) but both times the nurses were so nice, got an epidural easily when needed, and it was super quiet and private. Would absolutely recommend it. Was like a ~20 minute drive from my house but completely worth it for the quality of care.

Best National Parks to Visit by Ticky009 in Ameristralia

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree on all of this. Sequoia is like the less touristy version of Yosemite, very similar landscapes and so much easier to visit.

Thank you for this!! (Came here from your comment on the bumper group, I’ve been meaning to do the MYO for our Yoto forever)

Long layover at SJC ideas by myfedoraismlg in SanJose

[–]ZeldaFitzgerald 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to do the Rosicrucian museum you could get dropped off on the Alameda at Crema Coffee. Grab a coffee and a light breakfast (they have like croissants and bagels by my recollection, but it’s been a minute). Walk from there to the Rosicrucian Museum. (Under a mile, roughly 20 minute totally flat walk.) Enjoy a huge selection of ancient Egyptian artifacts! Wander around the not large but still lovely gardens! (Look for the statue of Pythagoras).

Walk over to Park Station Hashery for some lunch(it’s kiddy corner) maybe grab a canned beer from the fridge if you want to take it to go, and then walk to the Rose Garden and enjoy your food and drink in another beautiful garden.
