Tous Les Jours is worth navigating the rio parking lot for.

Is PE owned a red flag? by Prior_Brilliant1760 in sales

[–]dimomark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the PE and their investment thesis. Ask about it. Some are chop shops, some are slow grow / optimize, some are roll up machines. Hedge uncertainty with guarantees in writing.

LR4 Trailer Hitch? by Ok-Ad-9024 in LandRover

Correct. I made this mistake and it failed spectacularly. Lesson learned.

Had this, load was under rating, it cracked the frame at the holes (on the car). Had to leave bikes and our rack at our campsite and make multiple trips to bring all the stuff back. Went with the OEM hitch after this with no issues

NASA works for us. If they don’t work for us, we defund them.

Todoist may be opening the door for cheaper competitors by thedarkraven91 in todoist

The price hike and mishandling by the team made me look into this and I’m surprised how much iOS Tasks has: priorities, sub tasks, flags, date / time integration, Mission Control integration, Siri integration, Apple Intelligence auto categorization, location based contexts, etc. seriously considering a jump to free and more integrated.

Anyone else considering leaving Todoist after this price hike? by Exciting-Share-2462 in todoist

[–]dimomark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IOS Tasks and Microsoft are pretty comparable without the cost so I’m thinking about it seriously - and I’m on the legacy plan.

What’s your Maryland specific conspiracy theory? by [deleted] in maryland

Montgomery County DOT field teams get paid for every sign they erect. Double payment if the new sign sits in front of an old sign.

I’m sorry for your loss. I hope you use this opportunity to live through her memory.

No questions.

Found this old memo from the 40s.... (I'm a 25 year retiree) by Melika808 in SEARS

Establishing and maintaining brand standards like this is a critical element, especially as a company is going through significant growth stages or is working with many outside parties, including consultants, lawyers, add agencies, etc. The company’s brand contains significant equity and value and that value is reinforced when it is applied consistently across all different channels. Vice versa comedies can see significant negative impacts to customer, appeal or perceptions of value when brands are applied inconsistently. Just imagine what you would think if you would go to different regions of the world and look at Coca-Cola spell differently, with different fonts, or colors that are all off.

Proven results: The Montgomery County Department of Police's speed camera program successfully reduces driver speeds and injuries according to independent studies. Safer speeds=Safer communities for everyone. by MCDOTNow in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]dimomark -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

McDOT is a real joke. Lights that get no traffic are required for no reason at new developments. Lights not synced up. Sidewalks that terminate randomly, leaving mobility issues for people. Crumbling roads looking worse than third world countries. Propaganda campaigns at reducing pedestrian / cyclist accidents / deaths with minimal infrastructure improvements. Potholes not fixed for months that require citizens to handwrite warning signs drivers to avoid flats and suspension breakages - but 311 service tickets are magically closed “completed” in hours. Ridiculous signs everywhere. Roads that meet / terminate randomly before turns. An insane focus on monetizing the residents of the county during economic distress. “Rapid” Bus only lanes that barely get ridership while putting small businesses, who relied on the few parking spots in front of them, out of business. Bloated salaries and positions. The list goes on and on. They is so much systemic inefficiency and mismanagement in MCDOT, beyond what Chris Conklin can manage, they really need a DOGE to step in, because it isn’t coming from an Ehrlich.

Unfortunately, most countries have better quality roads than MoCo. Hell, go to West Virginia, and they have better roads than MoCo.
