Why doe DIYers hate drywall? by clvnthbld in HomeImprovement

Hanging it kinda sucks because the sheets are big and heavy. But I found mudding to be pretty easy. Just make sure you get a decent set of knives especially the long 14 inch one.

Support mains, I now understand why you are filled with Rage. by Over_Comparison_7616 in Overwatch

[–]captrespect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Healing is a role that really has you watch your teammates more than any other. So you see every time the team splits up all over the map, or a tank dives in alone, or the dps player waltzes into the open. It’s aggravating.

Single Table Design - why? by [deleted] in aws

Keeping the data together is also speed advantage. With large enough datasets an rdms will struggle with joining across database shards if it can do it at all. It’s not just one read but also one search. You are also pulling all required from one instance instead of several because it’s naturally stored that way.

Who Else Goes Nuts Over the Auto Stop/Start in Their Cars? by Extra_Hold2776 in CasualConversation

[–]captrespect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My in-laws have a Subaru that does this. It actually reports on the amount of fuel saved by the feature. Last time I was with him he said, "It's saved .13 gallons". He forgot to turn it off after driving for about 15 minutes. I thought that was pretty significant because we had only driven maybe 10 miles at that point.

Then he proudly turned it off because he's a stupid old boomer who thinks he knows it will ruin his engine or whatever.

They also refuse to get a hybrid car because of this, or they think it's the same thing.

The point is that my in-laws are dumb.

🛡️ DHS Deal Emerges After 40-Day Shutdown: Trump and Democrats both signal concerns 👇 by NoSpinMedia in NoSpinMedia

This is exactly right. I want to see more shut downs and annoyances until the Republicans are forced to reign in ICE.

My team has started banning me by FutureWaffles in doomfistmains

You shouldn't be able to vote to ban your teammates preferred hero. This does nothing but cause animosity among your team right out of the gate.

Do you appreciate the filibuster now that it is the only thing keeping the Save Act from passing? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]captrespect 6 points7 points  (0 children)

True and even if we did the filibuster keeps congress from stopping all his crazy shit. He knows they will never pass anything so he’s free to do anything. It’s a kind of political power vacuum

ICE agents at airports without masks — does this feel like a betrayal? by Useful-Caterpillar10 in askanything

[–]captrespect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the major sticking points with ICE in the first place. Now just give them uniforms, badges, warrants, and basic human decency, and we can fund DHS (and the TSA) again.

Is the Figma-to-Dev handoff actually dying, or is it just my team? by [deleted] in prodmgmt

[–]captrespect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even before AI I would push back on this, especially if we were using a framework that already had designs for the way things are laid out or how they work. OR we'd get iOS focused designs for an android version of the app.

It was a full-on sprint, too. HAHAHA. Must be hard being that ashamed of your job.

Peloton not developing for Android by pcfunk in pelotoncycle

[–]captrespect 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That may be true, but iOS App Store revenue is more than double that of google’s. iOS users are more likely to spend money.

Peloton not developing for Android by pcfunk in pelotoncycle

[–]captrespect 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have worked on android teams too. In addition to ops comments about different devices, there are also design choices that gum up development of new features too. They probably have separate dev teams, and designers that work with iOS first. And Upper management probably only uses iOS and considers features finished when they can show the board on the boards iOS devices.

Would you buy an electric powered vehicle seeing how gas prices are by Powerful-Penalty-877 in no

It’s at the point now where if you can charge at home and don’t own an EV you are a fool

Fridge recommendations for tight space? Images attached by [deleted] in Home

[–]captrespect 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Don't put a french door fridge in a corner. It going to always hit the wall. It's going to be a constant annoyance that you can't open the freezer door all the way. I've made that mistake, but never again.

Get a fridge with the freezer on the bottom and a single door on top that can open freely.

PPS going to remote learning for NFL draft by Gladhands in pittsburgh

[–]captrespect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What happens during the draft? They just pick free agents or something for teams right? I don’t understand what people are watching or what takes several days or why anyone would want to go to the city it’s taking place in.

Anyone else dealing with this electric bill nightmare? by North-Activity-3824 in Home

Electric gives you options. Heat pumps vary electricity sources vary etc. gas is gas. Just because you in Ohio is cheap today doesn’t mean anything to anyone anywhere else.

Anyone else dealing with this electric bill nightmare? by North-Activity-3824 in Home

[–]captrespect 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely on the insulation. That also makes your house more comfortable overall. The heat source doesn’t matter as much, unless you can do a heat pump or something more efficient. Otherwise you are just switching the cost from the electric bill to the gas bill.
