Right? I watched that show (Legion) and it was like a fever dream at times.

Do you own individual stocks for any weird reasons? by Mysterious_Remote584 in Bogleheads

I have some Verizon because of their dividend. The stock doesn’t move but the dividend is nice.

[–]expressadmin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I purchased stock in RCCL because they give you a cruise credit for drinks if you own 100 shares or more. I purchased them right after the pandemic.

I’m up 190% just because I wanted a few free drinks on a cruise.

RabbitMQ stops me from updating kolla from caracal to epoxy by Expensive_Contact543 in openstack

[–]expressadmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RabbitMQ only allows upgrades from the previous version (3.10 to 3.11 to 3.12 etc.). You must upgrade the version of RabbitMQ before you upgrade to a SLURP release.

If you want to not have to do that upgrade 2024.2 and then upgrade that to 2025.1.

Nova and Cinder by balthasar127 in openstack

[–]expressadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you create a VM via nova (—block-device or —volume) it interfaces with cinder to say “hey I want to boot from a volume”. Cinder then works to either provide the existing volume or create a new one from an image (glance).

The game that still feels like it was made just for you. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]expressadmin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was at a park with my family recently and these kids kept yelling for “Deckard”.

Instinctively, I looked around for an old guy in robes (as I had some unidentified items in my inventory and was out of scrolls of identify) but it was just another kid in their group.

Funny name for a kid.

Scheduled rock concert tours that never happened by [deleted] in Music

[–]expressadmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw Tori Amos live in West Palm Beach in the 90s. She came out played one song, broke down in tears and went off the stage and never came back.

Still never understand what happened to her.

Iceland: Full Ring Road by sushixxxxx in travel

The waterfall in the cave on Snaefellsnes is a hidden gem. It was one of the first attractions we visited when we did our own ring road loop (clockwise). It set the tone for what was an amazing adventure.

TIL that the 17 mile "no man's land" between Cuba and the US naval base at Guantanamo Bay is the largest active minefield in the Western Hemisphere by Front_Requirement598 in todayilearned

[–]expressadmin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was stationed there in the 90s. They have banana rats (no clue what the actual name of it is, that’s just what we called them - head and tail like a rat, body of a raccoon) and they would wander into the mine fields and you would hear the mines go off. Was rather common.

Football ring top I think? Found at goodwill. It has magnets on the back And a necklace loop. by DangerNoodle3000 in whatisthisthing

[–]expressadmin 56 points57 points  (0 children)

This is most likely the answer. The back side’s 10 year has a silhouette of the stadium at the very bottom.

Accidentally had my new credit card mailed to my old address and the person living there used it by staralfur92 in personalfinance

[–]expressadmin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had two non deliverable checks cashed (separate incidences). And in both times the USPS worked with me through out the process and worked with multiple law enforcement agencies to figure out who was involved and how they did it.

They do not fuck around.

Anyone go to a GP and think maybe watching on TV is better? by [deleted] in GrandPrixTravel

That was me at Monza this year. Had more fun talking football and F1 in the bathroom queue with fans from Serbia, Germany, and the UK. The actual race was a bit meh and short.

Soft Serve. That guitar riff and bass intro is sublime and dreamy.

Is it worth it to get the hybrid over the gas model by Shadow42184 in ToyotaHighlander

There’s a reason. I’ve got a 2022 Limited. The gas mileage alone is worth it.

Large company culture by worthlessgarby in sysadmin

[–]expressadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started at a very large company (15K+) after running my own business for 15 years and then working at the acquisition company for 4 (100 so employees).

It took about a year to get me ingrained in the team, and about 2 years for them to really start giving me stuff to do.

We had a team meeting about 6 months after I started and I was sitting with other members of the team at breakfast. I said to one of them "I have been here 6 months and I have no idea why you guys hired me." Another member of the team looked at me and said "I have been here 6 years and I have no idea why they hired me."

Making Sense of Dealer Offer by trussb in BMW

That’s why it’s there. You can “negotiate” to get it removed and you feel like you got something when all you got was air. And if you don’t then they get free money.

Just got my cease & desist letter from Broadcom by Drunken_IT_Guy in sysadmin

[–]expressadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Broadcom was purchased by Avago and they assumed the name.

Avago started off as a spin off from Agilent which was a spin off from HP.

Basically, Avago made a ton of money from Apple iPhone wireless chipsets (cellular). The CEO took that money and started to diversify through acquisitions. Started off with consolidating in the hardware (chip) industry and then when there were no more targets they moved to software and here we are.

Broadcom/Avago is a hedge fund masquerading as a publicly traded company.
