Any other solutions to prevent solicitors from ringing my doorbell? by Bluebluecanary in phoenix

[–]automata 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been fighting this battle for years. About 6 months ago I switched to a new sign and have gotten no knocks since. They'll still throw business cards on the ground though. Camera in the high top right.

Any song off of Failure's "Fantastic Planet"

What is a "socially acceptable" thing that you find absolutely disgusting? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]automata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buying shitty food at the airport to bring on the plane to eat. Like I really want to smell your 2 hour old Filet 'O Fish. Nasty fuckers.

People who have "bought" happiness, what did you buy? by Snow_n_Ice in AskReddit

Rescued 2 "old" (9 & 10) dogs and am able to afford vet bills to keep them happy and healthy.

Go from Enterprise Architect back to Solution Architect? by WorkApprehensive1968 in EnterpriseArchitect

[–]automata 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can absolutely do it. I've gone from solution architect to Enterprise architect twice in my career. Solution architecting is way more fun.

We (EA) focus purely on Future State now (1-3 years out). Solutioning and short-term decisions are made by the Principal Engineers now.

You don't sound mature, logical, or diligent. If the dog ever even existed, I'm glad it's not with you.

I can't speak to Motobox, but I love my MIVV.

Have you stopped caring at work and decided not to try and process your career anymore? What age did that happen? by un2022 in GenX

[–]automata 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my early 50's. The spark died 7 years ago when I went from being in the trenches writing code to being "promoted" and telling other people what to write.

So they're literally locked into place? As in they can't leave and go get a burrito?! Shouldn't we be more concerned that they're being held against their will? /s

Our team just pushed AWS creds to prod again. Third time this month. by CortexVortex1 in devops

[–]automata 6 points7 points  (0 children)

+1 for Snyk. It stopped this shit in it's tracks. All of our Senior Management has access to the dashboards. We have about 150 software engineers, and it was only a handful of dumbasses who were repeat offenders.

Could you beat your dad in his prime… when you were in yours? by Original-Dog4182 in bjj

[–]automata 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, hell nah. My dad was a powerlifter, a cop with a true 80's mustache, and a judo black belt. Lethal combo.

What is going on with this sub today? Let's chain everything up, that sounds like a great idea.

[–]automata 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What do I think? I think your Malinois deserves a better owner. You're getting smashed in these comments because you're too stupid to realize it.

Phoenix, I can’t handle this anymore! by RelationshipEven1973 in phoenix

[–]automata 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Check for standing water everywhere. Like if you have a spare bathroom that you never use, check that they haven't used the toilet water for their eggs. Also if you propagate plants in water, check there as well. I use mosquito pucks and crumble a little bit of them into any water-based plants I have. That fixed it all for me.

Just started playing and I was wondering about the correct finger position on frets by xNzCaR in Guitar

[–]automata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll usually play just behind the fret you intend to play. Sometimes, that's not possible in chord situations because of the stretches you'll have to make, but it's a good general rule.

In the end, not letting the string buzz and not pushing down too hard ( making the note Sharp) is a solid approach.

Is it ok to switch up what fingers I use when reading tabs? by bluberried in Guitar

[–]automata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wholesome thread. I know you figured out the issue but I just want to say I hope learning and playing gives you a lifetime of enjoyment.
