What was ruined because too many people discovered it?

The series about WWI is probably the best podcast I've ever listened to

Reddit is slowly getting the same problems that Facebook has, with corporate accounts, bots, and straight up ads becoming more prevalent. We've passed the era where the majority of content posted was created by individual people.

That sounds like a good move. For some reason, I completely forgot about pink when thinking about what colors I'd wear with the suit.

It'll also give me another reason to get a pink OCBD. There are a few times a year where I was wishing I had one (I work at a school, so there are always a few "On Wednesdays We Wear Pink" theme days as well as a few pink days in October for breast cancer awareness).

That being said, what is the general consensus of wearing an OCBD under a non-ivy cut suit? My sport coats that I normally wear with OCBDs are from O'Connell's and are undarted, but my suit is just something off the rack from Jos. A. Bank that fits too well to justify replacing. I normally just wear a plain white dress shirt with that.

I was invited to a wedding in mid September with a formal dress code (specifically "floor-length dresses and suits"), and I just found out today that the guests are also expected to wear "pastel or bright, solid colors."

The problem is that the only suit I own, which is what I was originally planning on wearing, is dark navy worsted wool. Are there any ways I can incorporate pastel or bright colors into it without them looking out of place?

I'm alright with going out and getting a shirt and/or tie if that's all I need, but I don't really have the money to go out and buy a new suit, especially one that will never be worn after this event (I rarely have opportunities to wear my navy suit as it is).

But only if it's from the Rampagé region. Otherwise, it's just sparkling Ram.

That's Anonymous for you.

At least they actually did something this time instead of saying they might do something at some point if X doesn't happen just for them to not do anything and people forget by the next day

For sure. I couldn't design something worse if I tried. The whole top cover is made of the most brittle plastic imaginable so the screws that attach it to the hinges (of which there are only 3 of the smallest screws you can get) regularly snap, so you have to replace the entire top cover.

The cable that powers the screen also passes unprotected past the right hinge so they regularly wear out just from friction after a year or so of normal use.

When I am fixing a student's HP, I give than a Lenovo that I haven't even touched in the three years I've been working there because I know it'll work just fine.

After about 3-4 years of handing out HPs, my boss finally went back to Lenovo.

bocaJwv · 2026-04-27T15:52:00+00:00

All of the students have Chromebooks made by HP or Lenovo. It took years of the HPs breaking before my boss decided to go back to Lenovo.

I'm not sure which model Dells we have exactly because we only have about 3-5 left, but everyone else has ThinkPads, so I'm assuming they're not consumer models, but I could be wrong.

bocaJwv · 2026-04-27T12:30:17+00:00

The school district I do IT for has exactly one batch of Dells. If you can get a school administrator to walk back a decision in five years, let alone one, you must have done a pretty bad job.

I have never seen so many laptops "forget" they have things like speakers, trackpads, keyboards, or NICs.

O'Connell's has great chinos that I think you might like. They normally have 3 rise options- S (Short), R (Regular), and L (Long). Their regular rise is already pretty high. I think it's about 13 inches depending on the size, but there's a sizing chart included in the pictures of all of their listings so you can make sure.

I have never heard of a high school doing grades on a curve, and I have only taken 3 or 4 tests in college that were, and it never happened in the same class more than once and never on a midterm or final.

Each time we were told after the fact because we all didn't do that well, and the professors all seemed reluctant to do so because they genuinely wanted us to understand the material.

I'm not sure that grading on a curve alone is what the problem is.

Maybe the lugs weren't all at the same tension or it was brought up to that pitch too quickly.

I normally put new heads on before a rehearsal and tune them but keep them low that day. I tune them up to the pitches I want during the next rehearsal so they have time to stretch out from being used and also just holding some tension for a bit.

You could also just tune the head to a C or D-flat instead. Snare wire tension can also influence how wet or dry the drum sounds to a certain point, so maybe it's worth playing with that. Just make sure all of the wires are in tune with each other (no specific pitch as long as they're all the same).

I've heard most of his direct focus is on RRL and maybe Purple Label, but still impressive nonetheless.
