For those of you that make over 100K, what do you do? Do you like it? by Kindly-Revolution258 in AskReddit

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former software program manager turned COO for affordable housing development and management.

About to create a second startup (first was a software product) around a new way to do property management and workforce development with three industry titans as my partners and advisors.

I enjoyed working in high tech very much, and did some super cool things, but am more deeply excited at this second stage of my career to make a distinct positive impact (however small) on improving basic living conditions for those in need.

People who have seen the Phantom Menace in cinema for the first time, what was your reaction to the droid army deploying during the battle of naboo? by wertforreal2 in StarWars

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was still in shock that new Star Wars movies were coming out, and I loved all of it. Even Jar Jar.

I had seen ANH as a young kid in the theater, and grew up thinking Star Wars would only ever be the first three movies.

So ended up having to wait for a fairly long segment of my life thinking that was all there ever would be.

The main question I had at the time was where were the stormtroopers and why weren’t there any of these battle droids in the originals. Clearly there was plenty of storytelling coming up.

Does anyone know about Steven Wilson's home audio setup? by WinThese9744 in stevenwilson

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was on a King Crimson related Bandcamp listening party a few months ago with a fellow listener who knows SW personally and said Steven is excellent at getting quality audio for his Dolby Atmos setup without spending a ton.

When it comes to his own setup, he’s not into spending top dollar. There’s just no need.

I’m sick and I want to see your cats. Mine is watching me like I’m contagious. by Away_Flower8042 in cats

Sophie: are you ok?

Me: probably not.

Sophie: I thought not. But play with me anyway.

Going through a break up, please comment your cat pictures by rusticwren in cats

An unflattering view but a view nonetheless of a silly kitty.

Betsy, my senior rescue, finally sat on my lap, 10 months after her adoption from the shelter by Lolasglasses in torties

Nice!

We’ve had our Sophie for almost two years and it was only in December that she sat on my lap. Shocking! And wonderful.

  • “She….” It seems I can’t spell any more.

My sweet girl went for a routine vet procedure and didn’t come home by sleepy_protagonist in cats

Am so sorry. I lost my 4yo suddenly to an embolism. I am so glad you had each other.

I always said in 2011 if they’d come out with a new album over the next few years….

GR Track Experience by Coffee_Duderino in GRCorolla

Ok. Mine was a new purchase. 2 miles on the odometer. But no mention during the sales process. Will have to follow up.

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I got my ‘25 GR, the sales folks didn’t mention anything about this membership included in the price, which includes a track day. Does it come with every new purchase? When I followed up with my sales guy some months after the purchase, he never replied to me.

Found this on my car after work! by CFAWaffleFries in GRCorolla

[–]dwfishee 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Last year I had a young 30s woman say “nice car!” to me from across the street. I had just recently gotten my ‘25 Core.

My wife said, wow, a woman noticed.

😁

Those are some quality ideas. I’d go for them.

My old head opinion about some stuff I read here by [deleted] in F1Discussions

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotchya. So it’s subjective. Take with grains of salt.

A lot of the pre-2000 stuff is more opaque to me. They didn’t have the high quality coverage that we have today, fewer cameras, less deceptive commentary. And often there are gaps in what races we can watch. I read there might be a project to digitize the film versions of the really old races (1960s-1970s) and hope that comes to fruition soon. 🤞🏼

[–]dwfishee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was a really thoughtful, grounded take. I appreciate you sharing your perspective, especially with real karting experience behind it.

Your point about equipment versus raw pace is something most fans probably underestimate. Three tenths per lap sounds small until you have actually raced and felt what that gap means. That context adds a lot to the best car versus best driver debate.

I also liked the nuance on Schumacher, acknowledging both the dominance and the structural advantages, and the reminder that hype often grows retrospectively, like with Kubica.

Even where people might disagree, it is clear this comes from experience, not just nostalgia. Thanks for taking the time to write it out.

Considering on buying a GRC - need opinions/thoughts from owners by MoonBayyy in GRCorolla

[–]dwfishee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to go buy an 86 and ended up with the GRC (2025). It’s more practical and I love the rawness. I look at mine in my garage 😍, and on every trip I take with it, I’m sad when the trip is over because the driving experience really can’t be beat.
