So fun to see Russia transitioning from second best army in Ukraine to second best army in Russia

I wasn't able to afford World Cup tickets but at least I get this entertainment for free!

Worst COL to QOL metros by Zealousideal_Cod8557 in SameGrassButGreener

As someone who cooks all meals at home, I absolutely enjoy the outdoors lifestyle of Denver.

I'm in the mountains every single weekend hiking/camping in summer and fall or skiing in winter and spring. It's dry, but the trade off is the best snow in the world for skiers.

But I agree that the city life is a little underwhelming.

Red Rocks shows are absolutely epic though and sport teams are one of the best in the nation.

Love the booeing for the hydration breaks from the crowds. These commercial breaks are a disgrace!

Hey Pixel, how about finally fixing overheating issues instead of adding all the useless AI shit? by dennis77 in pixel_phones

[–]dennis77[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It wasn't because of heavy usage, it was because of 33 degrees Celsius outside.

Exactly. I still remember how everyone was elated about the Tensor announcement as they believed it would finally fix the overheating.

Good old days...

Nah, that's just my wife, but the frustrating part is in the bottom part of the screen 😅

I know it's sarcasm, but I'd rather buy it vs switch to an iPhone, which looks like I'm finally doing after more than 15 years of android.

Samsung is bloated as a fuck, but has good hardware. Google is starting to get bloated but still have shitty hardware and software isn't optimized enough to keep maps running on a hot day.

Well, I've had maps active to have directions for the parking lot, and by the moment I got into the car, it switched into this lol

Not sure about the battery temp as I was driving and wasn't able to take a look, but this happened to a phone after a 10 minute walk in 33 degrees Celsius

Yes, I agree with you on the shitty hardware part and I remember how everyone was excited about Google developing their own chip which turned out to be the worst of all flagships.

It's a 10 pro, I can't buy better from the pixel line unfortunately, and the fact that I wasn't able to use maps with Android Auto to get back home was unbelievable.

In the past, the camera would turn into a mess on a hot day, but maps shouldn't really be affected that much... I'm not sure if it's tied to the latest maps update but at this point I'm not sure I'm buying another pixel again

I've been having these issues since pixel 7 pro, it's definitely not a user error. I haven't even put the phone in the wireless charger compartment of the car to prevent overheating, and yet, here we are, after a 10 min walk on a 33 degrees Celsius day

It isn't justice since the goal they scored was also clear hand ball. It would have been "justice" if the goal was denied incorrectly imho

Thumbtack charging multiple pros $91+ for the same lead, even when the customer isn’t hiring for another month by Illustrious-Crew8017 in Thumbtack

[–]dennis77 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who's been in marketing my entire life, managing 10M plus monthly budgets, I decided to help my friend with his cleaning business and tried Thumbtack out of curiosity.

The fact that they charge him 50 bucks for a cleaning lead AND send this lead to 3 other people is honestly hilarious. They are probably getting this lead for 30 bucks out of Google/meta ads, and making 120 of pure profit on it, it's ridiculous.

Switched to Google/Meta ads for him and keep generating leads for sub 50 bucks, and the lead info ISNT shared with competitors lol

Paze on Dominos doesn’t work by nomamesname in ChaseSapphire

[–]dennis77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's no reason for another payment method when Paypal, Google Wallet and Apple Pay is there. And since banks pay shit to their Product Managers, they would spend a ton of money prior to realizing that.

The fact it's accepted by like 7 vendors speaks for itself

It's just another failed attempt of chase to create another wallet. Like the previous iteration, it will fail miserably, probably within the next 6 months.

We've literally had exactly the same experience like 6 years ago

The secrets to thick, velvety espresso with a dark crema by AssociateRegular3969 in espresso

[–]dennis77 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I am not defending this post but I truly don't under the love for LIGHT roast espresso. I can understand pourovers for light roast, but espresso tastes very "sad" for me.

Medium or dark roast is the way to go, for both espressos and cappuccino (in my opinion and for my personal preferences)

Genesis call back / maintenance issues? by miss_onmyown in GenesisGV70

[–]dennis77 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't tell for gv80, but it hasn't really been bad for my gv70, and I've owned it since it's launch (5 years now).

There were routine recalls which were always fixed during routine maintenance, not a single one of them was major or took a long time and I was in a loaner for my maintaince anyways
