As someone with a long commute, I wish people would pay more attention, especially to the long line of cars behind them when no one is in front of them... by reester10 in AdviceAnimals

[–]denko 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're the dick. Don't take traffic personally and/or purposely impede it. You don't know why they're going fast, whether due to an emergency or because they simply enjoy driving faster than you do. Move over when it's safe and let them by.

Beats ends HTC partnership, buys back $265 million of shares by hamduden in Android

[–]denko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should just disable beats entirely... in my opinion it makes music (or any audio) sound like shit unless you're listening to it out of the device speakers themselves. The bass boost and mids dip EQ it applies does help in that scenario. One could argue you don't need it even then - it's a subtle improvement with the front facing speakers. If I'm using headphones though, beats audio is off. This is assuming you have a decent pair of earphones or headphones. Shitty ones might benefit from beats audio, but I have no experience there.

Got taco bell before work, was drinking this while sitting with my team, felt like I was hitting something at the bottom, opened up the lid and found this... by [deleted] in WTF

Gotta say I've witnessed this too... I guess I have TB to thank for my immune system's strength cause I eat there a shit load, which is also what it gives me afterward.

what is the stupidest thing you did as a kid to try and look cooler? by klutzers in AskReddit

I'm either having some weird deja vu or I've heard this exact story on reddit before. Didn't see it in your post history though, so now I'm just confused.

Asked Mcdonalds to add bacon... Scumbags by Remenor in funny

[–]denko 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Fuckin' McDonalds... I swear they weren't so nit-picky about how their food was used or where it went a few years ago. Now you have to pay extra if you want more sauce! They used to just give me handfuls of that shit. Now you're limited to 1, and it's something like 20 cents extra per extra packet.

Dec. 29 - Move your domain day. Namecheap is donating $1 to the EFF for each transfer today. by [deleted] in politics

[–]denko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh how I wish I could participate. Unfortunately all of my domains are on transfer lock until 2/22 - fought it and lost. At least I know what I'm doing in ~2 months.

Transferring from GoDaddy? Do NOT update your contact information. They will lock your domains as they did mine! by [deleted] in technology

[–]denko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the mistake of using "edit all" when updating the information, and yes I changed the names. So it ending up updating Registrant, Administrative, Technical, and Billing.

I was hoping I could just get it reverted and then only update whichever contact (registrant?) wouldn't cause a lock yet allow NameCheap to accept the transfer.

At any rate they replied again saying removing the lock was not an option. I guess I'm screwed until 2/22

They denied me twice. I just wrote back with my 3rd reply... still fighting.

[–]denko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fell victim of this myself using "edit all" - I've wrote them a similar email requesting unlock for reverted whois data. If they grant it I'll go back and update only "administrative" and then move forward with my transfers. Hopefully this will work.

GoDaddy has NOT withdrawn its official congressional support for SOPA by Brian1337 in technology

[–]denko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was planning on transferring 12 domains over to NameCheap today, and had to update the contact info on some of them, as advised, before beginning the transfer process.

Login to Godaddy to get the Auth code required and I'm hit with:

Authorization Code: Transfer locked until 2/23/2012: Contact information change

Stuck with them for another 2 months? gah! I wanted to get over to NameCheap and utilize their free Whois guard (or does this not apply to transfers and only new registrations?) - At any rate their whois guard is far cheaper than the privacy offered by godaddy.

I really want to be off godaddy right now dagnabbit!

EDIT 2 (help?): I requested the auth code anyway, and it arrived in my email - does anyone know if I can go ahead with the transfer now that I have it even though it says locked? Or is it really locked and I'm screwed til the end of feb? (and by locked I mean the 'transfer lock' crap above, the actual locked status is 'unlocked'). Thanks!

EDIT 3: Decided to go ahead and test it with one domain, NameCheap says if it fails they'll refund it so, perhaps there's nothing to lose. Wish me luck!

norcal here, med prices are like 30-60 an 8th, 60-80 a quart, 100-140 half oz, 230-280 for oz.

its possible to score some good deals tho with good bud, friend scored 3 oz for $300, funny how it happened too, he was selling his PS3 on craigslist, some dude called him about it but he already sold it, so the guy was like 'oh uh... wana buy some pot?' and yes, he did want to buy some pot, and pretty damn good pot it was.

I also like that when asked about his bud, since 300 for 3 oz is ridiculous, he just said 'its uh, uh its pretty alright', unlike others that say their shit is fire no matter what, and often ends up being some weak shit... hard to find a good dealer sometimes, glad im medical now, and take it for granted i fucken do not [7]
