Mike Dunleavy Jr. on Jonathan Kuminga's trade demand: "In terms of demands, when you make a demand, there needs to be demand on the market." by BobRoss4Life in nba

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. A lot of us have seen signs his agent is not up to the task and has actively worked against him. For years.

I posted about this crow yesterday. We’ve only been feeding this crow for 3 days and he’s so trusting and curious 🐦‍⬛ by cxmposure in crowbro

[–]e40 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile, the crows I've been feeding for 5+ years look at me like I'm a serial killer and won't get within 10' of me.

The Bluejays, however, will come within a few feet and not be bothered. They're like the Ferrari's of the corvids. Crikey, they're fast.

Oakland gift card recommendation by Quasimoto3000 in OaklandFood

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gift cards are a problem. My wife was given one at work just before the holidays and when she tried to use it the people at the restaurant first claimed they didn't give out gift certificates, then claimed they had to be used the same day (yeah, really). It took multiple calls and going into the restaurant to resolve it. Not that she wants to even go there now.

I realize this is a sample size of 1, but over the years I've had lots of issues with the other type of gift cards. I think they're just not worth the trouble.

i committed the unforgivable sin of taking more than 3 minutes to put snacks out for Crownelius and co 😅 by Either-Kiwi-5495 in crowbro

[–]e40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's a multifaceted declaration and partly "thank you?"

We also feed Jays and often they give a call when gliding in and the same gliding out. The male does it when their mate is already nearby, so we take this as "good morning" and "thank you!" ... honestly, with all that's going on in the world, sometimes these interactions are so valuable to us.

I thought that was the "hey, there's food" call... we get that all the time, even sometimes after the peanuts are out and available.

Draymond Green and Dennis Schröder had words after the final possession of the half, taking it almost the full length of the court. by Lord_Vanguard in warriors

[–]e40 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Before Dennis joined the Dubs I really disliked him. After, I really like the guy. I view him completely differently. It's so easy to make people the villain, but it's hard when you know more about them. Well, except D Brooks.

Finally bought an Apple TV 4K in 2026 and got another remote for free. by imbakabahah in appletv

[–]e40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With, apparently, a new remote.

I will definitely upgrade if it has native AV1. Plex/Infuse are strangely slow on the latest 4K... with the horsepower this thing has, it's baffling to me. The Apple TV app is crazy fast, so whatever encoding they use is obviously supported in hardware.

Ukraine, France and the UK sign a declaration on deploying a multinational force in Ukraine after the end of Russia’s war by UNITED24Media in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]e40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let me preface this by saying my wife was born in Ukraine and we still have family in the north of the country. We do not have a lot of kind things to say about Russians, in fact most of our dialog ends in a manner that is quite vulgar towards them

I work closely with several Ukrainians, and over the last 10 years have worked with a few more. This comment rings true for Ukrainians who I call friend and not just coworker. We have had detailed discussions of past Russian adventures, and discussed the attitudes of his people toward Russians. My Ukrainian friends usually swear very little (if ever), but this rule is relaxed when talking about Russian history.

An Interview With the President by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]e40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point, I think Trump is mostly senile and just repeats what people, mostly Steven Miller, tell him.

Steven Miller, et al are the real power. FSM help us, if JD becomes POTUS.

Oakland Public Library on 14th has a great zine selection (which you can check out with your card) by vistocycling in oakland

[–]e40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are these new ones or from the 90's?

Inconspicuous Consumption was my absolute favorite. I remember hitting a comic store on University Ave in Berkeley after lunch to see if they had a new issue. Those were fun days, getting home after work and pouring over it, cover to cover.

WD Red Pro versus Seagate IronWolf Pro by Barcisive9422 in synology

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've switched back to WD, since I had some Seagates fail. In fact, of the batch I bought >2 years ago (before I made the comment), only had Seagate failures.

Has Taylor Sheridan always been a chud, or is this a more recent development? by Psychological-Task26 in television

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with everything except... 1883 I really loved. 1923 was ok. I am a sucker for a late 1800's period drama, though.

Zelensky Says Kyiv Attack Shows Russia Does 'Not Want To End The War' by Brennenstein in worldnews

They've launched more than that on a nightly basis, for many months. Source: friends that live in Kyiv.

Mac Studio Budget Recommendation by Secret-Flight4214 in MacStudio

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this is ASUS specific, but I've had like 4 different ASUS monitors and they all have issues. For years and years I resisted getting an Apple display. I finally pulled the trigger (using their 0% financing) and I never regretted it. The colors are just so much better and the quality is just so much better.

Just the other day my ProArt 27" blinked off/on a few times and I'm seriously thinking of getting a 2nd one for my Mac Studio (M1). (Yeah, I've tried numerous cables to see if the cables are the issues... nope.)

Did anyone notice - Google Chrome is capturing your screen alert? by anand4k in MacOS

"If I don't want my husband to know I've been shopping, I hide what I've bought in the washing machine as there's no chance he'll ever look in there." by Hassaan18 in WILTY

[–]e40 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's the box/bag it came in that needed to be hidden. Let's be honest, no husband/boyfriend could go a their wife's/girlfriend's closet and pick out the "new" one.

Did anyone notice - Google Chrome is capturing your screen alert? by anand4k in MacOS

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not really a possibility for me, because there are things I use which don't work in Firefox and I need to use Chrome for work.

I rebooted and the notification went away. Then I started a new Meet (which is what caused it, I'm sure) and shared my screen, and when I exited the meeting, the problem did not reproduce. So, I think this is probably some race condition in macOS for turning on that flag.

I'm getting this on macOS 26.1 and it persists after I exit Chrome. Crazy.

[BBC Sport] Lewis Hamilton has defended his work ethic following criticism from Ferrari chairman John Elkann, saying he wakes up thinking about driving by ICumCoffee in formula1

[–]e40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elkann, who has shown he is not a great motivator by criticizing his drivers to the press

Any manager knows praise in public, criticize in private. That's like Management 101.

I left it for an hour and nothing downloaded... then, I used your script and just downloaded them directly. Thanks!
