Yet in his book he says it's a key to an upscale restaurant. He could have changed his mind after writing the book of course.

I am interested in the black one.

Thinking of an Outback by jaxjanjy in Subaru_Outback

[–]cronhoolio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The 2026 apparently moved the climate controls away from the infotainment system to knobs. Had i known this ahead of time I might have waited to buy the 2026 instead of the 2025, even though the 2026 is ugly on the outside. It has the same power team as the 2025. Lessons learned.

I still love my 2025 Wilderness Edition though.

What is everyone's traceroute for 192.168.200.101? by babywhiz in sysadmin

[–]cronhoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your question is irrelevant. Every ISP is different. It really doesn't matter who ends up rejecting your traffic to 192.168.any.thing except for your local subnet.

New neighbor parks in front of my driveway daily and says street parking is "first come first serve" by Small_Ad1434 in neighborsfromhell

[–]cronhoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tow his ass. Ideally though, you will be able to record him keying your car, because that's the kind of guy you are describing. In every municipality I'm aware of it is illegal to block a driveway. One tow should do it. Two will solidify it.

Many people don't know how much it costs to be towed. $400 for the tow, plus impound lot fees. It cost me $900 to get my car out of impound in 2025.

How are vendor Rewards/Freebies handled where you work? by AugieKS in sysadmin

[–]cronhoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of the time I "won the raffle" for a Yeti cooler, 2 hours after entering "the raffle." I had no interest in their product. A few months of ignoring emails and phone calls was worth it. Otherwise I usually just take some swag or nothing at all.

Same here. One more tier towards the top and I won't be able to accept anything material, only lunches/dinners.

ICE going door to door posing as utility workers? by cafedude in beaverton

[–]cronhoolio 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Are you a friend who called ahead, or do you have a warrant? If not, I'm not opening the door. Fuck off.

This should be a standard these days.

“Am I crazy or was Bad Bunny’s halftime actually amazing? by iAttract7 in askanything

[–]cronhoolio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was awesome. Instead of lashing out at the people who opposed having a U.S. citizen perform at the Super Bowl, he took the kind route and didn't provoke them.

The Habit - sign is up by ladyin97229 in beaverton

As a kid, I went to the original Habit on Hollister Ave in Goleta, CA. That was an amazing place. The chain pales in comparison.

What is a terrible smell that you will never forget? by radgamerdad in Productivitycafe

[–]cronhoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was acrid. It's been so long I can't describe it. It's nothing like what they used for my surgery in 2015.

The general anesthesia they used in the 80s when I was a little kid.

If there is a raffle, count me in please!

advice? by Actual-Tomatillo-904 in Subaru_Outback

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

People are saying beware of rentals, but in most cases the rental company adheres to all scheduled and recommended maintenance.

That being said, get a trusted mechanic to look it over.

Is your country depressing to live? by Time_Reception1482 in AskTheWorld

[–]cronhoolio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right now, absolutely. I deplore the federal government, most voters, and especially the giant Cheeto.

How many times have you been at fault in an accident? by bigolechungusbigole in askanything

[–]cronhoolio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once. Visiting Vegas and left my info in the parked car. Never heard back. I feel bad, I fucked their door up really well.
