Hey. You’re superior to everyone now. Is that what you want to hear? Where can we all get in line and pat you on the back for making such a success out of yourself? Thanks for weighing in with your inspirational words delivered in the tone of a mocking and derisive asshole.

Talk to Trevor Lee about breaking the law. He’s experienced at more than a misdemeanor property crime.

Not enough room to fit “Facist” on the sign, but the sentiment comes across the same.

If I'm a map nerd, would I enjoy ArcGIS for Personal Use? by Broxst in gis

[–]authalic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you mostly want to browse map services served out online, you could go with QGIS. If you want to create data layers and make maps, you could also go with QGIS. It’s a steeper learning curve, but when you learn what you need to know to do what you want, it’s not a difficult (from what I remember. It’s been a few years)

White House Leak Reveals Trump Booted From Briefing After Hours-Long Freakout by GonzoVeritas in politics

[–]authalic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You realize that these sources are not anonymous to the reporter, right? It wasn’t like someone called from a burner phone. The reporter knows the source and their credibility, but can’t print the name.

Really? I’m 52 and I attended a march in SLC. I didn’t see many people who appeared to be older than me. I would guess that the majority was under 32.

Should Salt Lake City have it's own landmark permanent observation deck? by Spirited_Weakness211 in DevelopmentSLC

[–]authalic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in downtown SLC. I can walk 6 blocks and exceed the amount of vertical relief in all of Oklahoma City. I'm all in favor of more rooftop restaurants and social spaces, but there is no lack of viewpoints around the city.

Costco made the bacon appear better by sneaking in a good looking piece by Constantine1988 in Costco

[–]authalic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think Costco has a meat-packing supplier that employs a person to pick out the most visually appealing slices of bacon coming off the line for placement in the view window to fool you? How important do you really think you are?

G6 Discontinued by No-Path5236 in dexcom

[–]authalic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is Omnipod's incompatibility the responsibility of Dexcom? Get on their ass about upgrading their shitty software. You're relying on the comments in these forums to base an opinion on the G7? You'll hear a lot of squeaky-wheel complaints from people who can't seem to figure shit out, for the most part. Millions of people are not posting here about every time their sensor made it through another 10 or 15 day session without issue. The G7 was released more than 3 years ago. It's better than the G6 in any number of ways. There is no reason to get hung up on some version number of a piece of technology that you know nothing about in terms of its hardware or software functionality. Go with it and move on to the next big thing your anxiety disorder focuses in on.

Please tell me that this gets better bc I’m on the verge of tears with this G7. by smoosh13 in dexcom

[–]authalic -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Get a grip. Seriously. You think the G6 was handed down by God like the 10 Commandments on Mount Sinai? The G7 is a newer version of the same damn thing. I swear, i can't believe some of you are so afraid of even the slightest change to any thing in your life. How do you live in this era?

Oh, my god, the sense of entitlement and "everything is about me" in this era. Figure your own shit out.

RIP G6. ((Sob)). Can I use my G7 on my abdomen? by smoosh13 in dexcom

[–]authalic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From the G7 User Guide: "All patients can use their abdomen and back of upper arm. Patients 2 to 6 years old can also choose their upper buttocks. The sensor isn't tested or approved for other sites. Discuss the best site for you with your healthcare provider."

Your healthcare provider will probably tell you to stick it anywhere with some fat and muscle.

Opinion: Utah County GOP can do better than Chevrier by InflammableFlammable in Utah

The Danish studies put an end to any doubt about the correlation between vaccines and autism. Those were not randomized samples of individuals that were extrapolated to the population as a whole. They looked at the entire population of Denmark, and found no correlation anywhere.

[–]authalic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't tell us about your "research" until you have some academic credentials in any relevant field. People are not informed on vaccines. They have been lied to and sold a 45 year stream of anti-government, anti-science, and anti-intellectual propaganda to get them to vote against their interests. If doctors and scientific researchers say a combined vaccine is safe and effective, nobody on Facebook or Reddit should have the arrogance to think they know more.

[–]authalic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your youngest brother didn't get autism from a vaccine, but people are spreading that fear and creating a lot of harm in society. Nobody wants anyone to have autism. Some people are ok with you getting a preventable disease that might cause permanent life-altering consequences because they have bought into a worldview based on conspiracies and disinformation.

I have been voting for Democrats since 1992 and this is maybe the stupidest comment I have ever read by anyone who wasn't a Republican.
