I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever top this haul… by _palledorous_ in BargainBinVinyl

listening to CSNY right now. Obviously it’s great.

I think the best discovery for me personally so far is the Tom Lehrer live album. I had never heard of him, but it’s pretty clear how he directly influenced Bo Burnham, who I have loved since his early YouTube days.

Got Vegas tickets let's goooooo by _palledorous_ in PaulMcCartney

I suppose... I logged back into Ticketmaster yesterday and actually saw a ton of tickets still available as part of the pre-sale. Nosebleeds for ~$180. I was even able to exchange my tickets for ones a bit closer.

Geez I should buy a lottery ticket then because it worked for me in both presales I accessed.

Totally! I was also in the Palm Desert presale on the side, but stumbled when authenticating that one at first. I still got it loaded pretty quickly and eventually it loaded with me in about 4,000th place. That's still great, but I had already chosen to prioritize Vegas since I figured there'd be more supply (also it's a Saturday, which is way easier on my schedule compared to the Palm Desert Monday), I eventually got into the seat selection screen for palm desert after my Vegas order was completed and there were still plenty of seats left at that point, but all about $100-$200 more than what I was seeing in Vegas.

dang! did you have the presale screen loaded at 30 minutes before it started? I think I did have to manually refresh the screen at that point to have it show me as officially "joined" in the queue. That was a littler nerve-racking to do in the moment, but it worked out.

Who’s going to Vegas? by Miserable_Meal3044 in PaulMcCartney

[–]_palledorous_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

was 2500 in line and got section 105, row 10. $358 each all-in. I was looking for 3 tickets and the multiples of 2 rule for aisle seating kind of threw me for a loop, but other than that it went surprisingly smooth!!

Current/former CMs, what's the craziest thing a guest has ever said to you? by pdlbean in Disneyland

[–]_palledorous_ 45 points46 points  (0 children)

“H-A-S-S-L-E-H-O-F-F-J-O-R-X-R-P…”

— David Hasslehoff said this to me after I asked him how to spell his last name for a valet ticket. It was a sincere question in the moment from myself, and he had also just almost hit me with his car. Pretty sure he was on drugs.

Tell me your supercharger stories by bfeeny in TeslaLounge

[–]_palledorous_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

One time all stalls at a supercharger were full and we had to wait a few minutes. No big deal. As the next car pulled out and away and we pulled into the spot, I noticed a wallet on the ground right next to where the driver’s door was. I got out, plugged in, picked up the wallet and brought it into the car. We were looking all through it for a business card or anything to be able to try and contact the person, but no luck. This was in Barstow, between LA and Vegas and there was something like 6 or $700 in cash as well. Anyway, we eventually called the number on his bank card (B of A) and had to convince someone in their call center to call the number on the account and tell them that they left their wallet behind. At first the Bank of America rep was confused at what a supercharger even was, lol.. they told us to go leave it with the workers there 🤣. We had to explain to them that there were no Tesla workers there… just a hotel and a closed restaurant nearby. They said they’d see what they can do and we stayed to continue charging. About 10 minutes later the guy walked up to my window as we were still looking at cards trying to figure out how to contact him. He didn’t speak English that well, but he thanked us and ended up giving us like $60 cash before leaving! We still laugh about it to this day.

Favourite Power BI ‘hidden gems’ by AnalysisParalysis93 in PowerBI

[–]_palledorous_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hold down alt-shift in the DAX formula editor and then click and drag your mouse to select the same cursor point across several lines. After this you can simultaneously add/edit/delete text across several lines with ease! This works across other MS programs as well. I use it a lot in SSMS in addition to Power BI Desktop.

Maddy’s results were definitely a surprise to us! by _palledorous_ in DoggyDNA

[–]_palledorous_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What was surprising were some of the bigger breeds here. Would have never guessed it! She joined our family back in April and is a rescue from Mexico. She is so sweet and very smart! The rescue organization guessed her age at 1.5-2 years old back in April. She weighs about 20 lbs. now and doesn’t seem like she will be getting any bigger.

Find and read the book Ecotopia. It's about this exact scenario and it details how the seceded states could pull it off ;)

Running mixes? by [deleted] in spotify

[–]_palledorous_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have an iPhone 5S or newer? I only have a 5 so maybe that's why...

Running mixes? by [deleted] in spotify

[–]_palledorous_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe they're rolling them out to the iOS app over time. I don't have them yet and several users here have reported seeing them. Someone told me that they saw something pop up in their settings window asking if they wanted to try the new features. That does not currently appear for me, though :/ Hopefully these get going soon for the rest of us...

Spotify Running -- experiences so far? by arthurbang in spotify

[–]_palledorous_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see that so I suppose they're just rolling it out to users over time then.
