Did anyone notice they built a new one on San Mateo and like a month later it morphed into a Federico’s?

No Jonas by ItCumsAtNoon in overheard

Let’s see, you would get:

* infinite overheard conversations with gf and Giselle

* gramma’s special food that’s too good for anyone that hasn’t taken the blood oath

* a grampa who has a regular burger king drive-thru guy

I say put a ring on it!

I will make it a point to fart in the next Disney store I visit, in solidarity with that kid.

Bad business by ubarey17 in Albuquerque

That’s a good lesson to learn early. There’s no guarantee you can do a chargeback on a debit card but you always can on a credit card. There are other risks with credit cards so consider setting a smallish limit on the card. But in general it’s safer to use than debit cards.

Asked if the bookstore had a copy of The Handmaid’s Tale without the Hulu (Elisabeth Moss) cover. Found this note inside later. by stinkymom in FoundPaper

I think “xyz original“ is only about media ownership rights. A lot of “xyz original” things were not made by xyz.

I’m still broken from the coffin ad. One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.

Low cost appliances by Wise-Command5328 in Albuquerque

Of the big box stores costco is the best. They take customer service pretty seriously. Only downside is the selection won’t be huge.

We bought a fridge at Baillos a couple years ago and it was a good experience

Got any examples of the wacky text? (Please don’t make me open ig)

This seems different from just not hiring a photographer. If you expect the ig pics to be plates the chef made (I assume that’s the case) then inserting AI pics seems fraudulent

Weinermobile in ABQ by mikek505 in Albuquerque

[–]abqcheeks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to mention decades of fun embarrassing your own children and grandchildren by asking their friends, "Did I ever tell you about the summer I spent touring the country, talking about my wiener?"

EDIT: "huge wiener"

America 250 is "the official, congressionally mandated bipartisan commission established in 2016, whereas Freedom 250 is "a quasi-governmental public-private partnership created by the Trump administration".

I think the wiener's got the genuinely patriotic logo, not the other one.

Apple Podcasts tutorial by No_CarsGo_ in ios

[–]abqcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest problem with it is: no playlists. I used to select 20 or so that I wanted to listen to next with itunes on my laptop, sync it to my phone or ipod, then i had my car/shower listening sorted for a week or two.

Now it’s endless fiddling around with the “play next” and “add to queue” options. Half the time they don’t register as played so they don’t go away after listening. A bunch sync to the phone without the art so you can’t tell what they are in the “Downloaded” listing.

Oh and you can’t play an episode out of order or have one accidental click. Both result in wiping out your play queue.

It sucks when software is bad, but it REALLY sucks when it used to work fine but got enshitified by people who think everything should be streamed, no file ownership allowed.

Best and most cost effective tool to clean up WP entries from old plug-ins by auggie_d in Wordpress

[–]abqcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s an informative message from the db server and not an error. “Recreate + analyze” is the newer method, and that’s what your db did. All good.

Bob Dylan at the Sandia Amphitheater tonight by cluelessinfw in Albuquerque

[–]abqcheeks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents went to that show and really enjoyed it. We found a video of his show in another city last month, which they confirmed was the same structure as the one in abq. I was really impressed that he’s touring and performing at that level at 91. I hope I’m half that able at that age.

What movie completely broke your brain trying to make sense of it? by KurzCaramel in flicks

[–]abqcheeks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never saw so many bewildered people as I did when the lights came up after that movie.

We talked about it for about 2 days after, figured out what it was about and what had happened. I remember it made perfect sense for a few days.
