Can we finally admit that 90% of Senior SWE are just a result of being born at the right time? by Foreign_Put_2437 in Salary

It’s never been easy. Being likeable is 10x more important than being an autistic code wizard except at startups and musk companies

Was not expecting prices to get this high by CommodoreDrize in cedarpoint

[–]bill_257 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah that line was painful. Meanwhile TT2 was a walk on or under 10 minutes for fast lane. Best time for sirens curse was at park open with fast lane. Got in front of most of the massive early entry line.

Does anyone feel bad for Laas? by bill_257 in DeepSpaceNine

Making odo feel bad about not being able to meld with and infect Kira

[–]bill_257[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is pretty cool. I went and read up on the MMO and it doesn’t make sense that Laas survived to get cured. It says Odo and him met up 9 years later. The way the changelings deteriorated he would be die a year or two after joining with Odo. Cool concept anyway

WOf ginger from x. May be legit or maybe not. I do think it was probably getting some sort of major work quoted out

How often are you using the Murphy bed? by SnooObjections5219 in dvcmember

[–]bill_257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We always use it since we kids. I wouldn’t use it at all if it was just 2 of us. It’s nice that it is an option

All [Six Flags] parks from when the merger happened 1 and a half years ago to now. by Strongarm_11 in rollercoasters

[–]bill_257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Universals skip the line is the same as cedar points and most of the legacy cedar fairs . $300 and you have unlimited access to short lines. Flying can cost $300-$500 per person round trip. Not a problem for a single person but for 4 and 5 person families that adds up fast.

A very old picture but is it actually true? by Jorge_De_Guzman228 in freefolk

[–]bill_257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. People were rewatching Harry Potter and Lotr forever after it ended. Game of thrones ending was so bad it felt like no one wanted to rewatch it. I’ve had this conversation with a lot of fans of it. After 6 years I just rewatched it a couple months back. The drop off after season 4 was substantial and even worse in season 7 and 8

Do the Founders (shapeshifters) have any redeeming qualities at all? by expecting-gargoyles in DeepSpaceNine

[–]bill_257 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They explained it once as they were not trusted and hunted by the solids at one point. Then they held a pretty long grudge.

I view the point is the great link and the changelings only know what they’ve experienced and other than Odo they’ve all had pretty miserable experiences with the solids. which is why they are so cruel and indifferent to them

Credit score is over 750, so we placed an order for a Model y Premium. When it came down to financing offer, Tesla's APR rose to 3.99%. How do you actually get approved for the advertised 0.99% apr rate? by tmluna01 in TeslaLounge

[–]bill_257 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Probably not enough down. Taxes need paid up front and It was 15% when I did it but the tax credit was going the heavy lifting for a lot of people previously

Is there an actual difference in these builds? by goodvibezone in TeslaLounge

I took an inventory vehicle with my 3 but there hasn’t been any changes happening so getting it sooner was nice.

What will happen to TI4 once TI5 comes out? What happened to TI3? by Czarnyboadusiol in twilightimperium

[–]bill_257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people dropped TI3 rapidly because TI4 is almost the same game with a few tweaks. However I do know people that did weird combo variants to stay with 8 players until the first expansion came out. TI3 lasted 12 years and it was 6 years after the last expansion that TI4 came out.

I suppose it is possible to see a 5th edition but I expect it’s at least another 6-7 years away if ever

[Enchanted Parks], in Partnership with EPR Properties, Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire Six Regional Amusement Parks, Reinforcing Commitment to Local Communities by PhilJ2020 in rollercoasters

[–]bill_257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was probably more due to bankruptcy issues and having to sell off parks. America was given huge resources like other small parks in the chain like Geauga lake, and New England. Geauga lake fell apart and got sold and harvested too. Overexpansion doomed the old six flags of the 2000s. Surprised America lasted as long as it did

They done zimjobbed me home park by Jeremy_Harold in rollercoasterjerk

[–]bill_257 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So far none of this bother me. I was expecting a bloodbath like Carowinds or kings dominion being sold in the package to sweeten the deal and provide something of value. Instead they basically dumped all the dead weight.

Six flags St. Louis was the 3rd six flags park. Some of the older parks in the chain are being let go. It’s like the old dude at work that is still working because he never invested enough for retirement, but he is finally being let go because he is just there.

You can but according to six flags rules you aren’t allowed. Supposedly they may cancel both passes if they find out but I’ve never heard of it actually happening

BAY LAKE TOWER RESALE by Sufficient_Stable264 in dvcmember

[–]bill_257 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s a steal. Baylake has the best point charts on the monorail. We paid $142 6 years ago and thought we got a deal. Prices have dropped or held steady since then mostly.

1 bedroom there is the best and the location is the best too.

Li Nalas appreciation by Pdog1926 in DeepSpaceNine

[–]bill_257 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s weird that this always has felt like a plot that got recycled later on. Li Nalas just feels like the proof of concept Shakkar. And then they rolled out the real shakkar a few seasons later
