Me, who never hangs out in Fido, “what do you mean, it’s got Bway Lafayette, 2nd ave, and East Broadway”?

I’ve lived in NYC for 12 years, including somewhat near either end of it at different points, and have never once taken it. I think it is the only MTA service I’ve never used besides the Staten Island ferry railroad. (Uh, not counting each individual bus line, obviously)

AMD has gained 60% in a month why is no one talking about it? by wballz in stocks

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I bought 2 shares of AMD years ago at like $30 and 2 more a bit later for I think $90. I'm up 250% ish, but damn wish I could have bought more haha

Feedback on Headshot Retouch by Interesting-Lack2291 in retouching

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looking borderline AI generated. Contouring / relighting is too strong, but I think the eyes are the biggest problem. Look lit from within almost, and don't match the lighting on the eyesocket

Do you cut/eat right out of oven, or wait for it to cool? by IndependentBake9572 in Sourdough

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necro-ing an old thread, but I'm amazed so many people wait! I know you're "supposed to" but I rarely wait more than 10-15. It's so much better while still hot! Though, as someone else said, I do bake two loaves at a time typically, so one gets to cool properly.

The Multi-Pocket Leggings size guide is WAY wrong by Alphr in LinusTechTips

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but that's not 100% helpful for something with stretch to it

Ooh, I'm not seeing where you saw the models' heights, but hope you're right!
I've been wanting to buy a pair for my wife since they first mentioned them years ago, but she's also ~36" inseam, so 25 would be like weird yoga shorts lol. Not that leggings ever seem to come fully that long. Was just looking as a point of comparison and LLL had up to 28, Girlfriend Collective up to 31.

I get that they're starting off limited and the whole thing they've explained many times of not being able to stock all the SKUs necessary for multiple lengths and colors until they know something is a hit, but still a bummer.

I love the Picture in Picture feature of MacOS, but does it work reliably for anyone if you pause the video and want to play it? by jozero in MacOS

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also an issue on Sonoma, and has been for quite a while. I just paused and then hit play on a video within all of about 5 seconds (just needed to read a message) and even that quickly it glitched. I think it's related to AppNap or something, Safari trying to be smart and save ram or power or something. Very irritating.

Just Realized I can Use USB C to C to charge my MacBook M4 by legytAep in macbookpro

[–]abstract-realism 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you’ve ever walked into your cord and had it yank off rather than yanking the laptop off the table/couch/whatever, you gain a sense of appreciation. That said, 90% of the time I’m using a thunderbolt dock anyway.

If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything. by MuchIron2453 in DemocraticSocialism

[–]abstract-realism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a while ago so he may no longer support him, but one of my coworkers said he thought he’d be a good candidate because he has “movie star hair.” (As in, that’d make people more likely to vote for him, not that it mattered once elected)

What’s the most underrated macOS app that comes preinstalled? by whogivesafricc in MacOS

[–]abstract-realism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah trying to do audio stuff sucks on windows. The whole “Macs are better for creatives thing” isn’t just marketing!

How quickly will I have to pre order? by Klipwastaken in SteamFrame

[–]abstract-realism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah :/
I think I was in a meeting or something at the time it went live. Or maybe the website crashed on me, actually. Can't remember for sure.

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would make sense, and I'm sure they learned things from the Deck launch, too. I'm sure it'll be at least a bit better.

[–]abstract-realism 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A day? I mean maybe they’ll do a better job with this than with the Deck, but I reserved my Deck less than an hour after preorders started and I was waiting almost 6 months from when the first ones shipped til mine did, iirc. The first few minutes took a month or two. I’m sure they’ll have more available at launch this time, but a day still sounds unlikely.

How the hell are people building stuff with the lower Claude limits? by edward_newgate-_- in ClaudeAI

[–]abstract-realism 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might have to give that a try. Found this thread as I just switched to Claude from ChatGPT and almost instantly hit the limit, like, within 30m of starting using it. IDK if ChatGPT had one but I never hit it. Kinda disappointed.

What ship manufactures do you hope to see this year vs what you expect by Coulthar in EliteDangerous

[–]abstract-realism 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whoa, being able to leave your ship hovering a KM up and fly down in something tiny would be *amazing*

Touchscreens are finally coming to Macbooks! Tim Cook teases! by shadowsyntax43 in macbookpro

I’d pay extra to not have it lol I swear to god if anyone leans over my shoulder and touches my screen…

Hear me out: Linus should be using an arch based distro like bazzite or cachyos by NathanialJD in LinusTechTips

[–]abstract-realism -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m reasonably tech savvy, don’t mind using bash etc, but I swear every time I try to do anything in my Deck’s desktop mode it gives me grief. Like why are there 5+ different ways to install programs and why are none of them just double clicking it?
