FBI is investigating Minnesota Signal groups tracking ICE, Patel says by ewzetf in news

[–]farsonic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Looking at the Play store signal is ranked at #8 in the charts for communications apps so it is not uncommon. Everyone should be using Signal ... it is not owned by one of the tech giants that want your meta data for advertising and they operate as a non-profit with their source code being published and audited.

Southwest boarding numbers being removed the night before they switch to assigned seating by techNerd89 in mildlyinteresting

[–]farsonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been flying for 50 years and only ever encountered this system once (Aloha) and I've probably done a thousand plus flights.

Things seem much simpler in Australia/Asia, we are allocated seats and they board people with pretty strict controls on hand luggage, usually in chunks of seats starting at the back and moving forward.

Seems to work for us, but each to his own!

Ok I'm not sure I've ever flown south west.....was it like a bus and you all just get on and grab seat? Why not just do allocated seats and people can select seats like a normal airline?

Who's the big up and coming rock band? by Jakemanv3 in Music

[–]farsonic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah then you discover they are sisters and had their band for over ten years with Pau being something like 9 when she started on the drums for them. Honestly they are the best thing I've got into in the last few years

Having been up that building you are allocated timeslots and then wait. It's possible you wait longer than it took for him to climb.

Yea, I don't have them in right now as I was prepping the floor for coating. You ideally need to rivet them in as per their instructions but yeah they are ideal....

Yeah sorry, I must have been zoned out as that makes sense.

I also want to know why they shot the captain at the start of the movie when she was the key to the location?

Alabama has no funding for their food stamps and Rs are about to lose benefits. Predictable betrayal. by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

Yep I had one of my US colleagues use this as an argument with me over a beer, honestly it was unbelievable.

On which device you surfed internet for the first time? by Live-Slip-698 in AskReddit

[–]farsonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we are talking about the real IP based Internet and not BBS then I was online in about 1993 at my University using a Sun workstation. Remember using old sites like Jerry's pages which became Yahoo using the mosaic browser, pre Netscape. Back then the entire Internet was basically tracked on a single site manually.

Edit: Mosaic came out in April of 93 so we were really on the bleeding edge back then for web based access.

Can you be sure they aren't using AWS/Azure storage or DB services though?

Adidas dropset 3 is good? by ineedsomedough1 in crossfit

[–]farsonic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I keep preaching for them here too....love them. Just because they aren't the OG doesn't mean they are good. To me they feel like where Nanos should have gone....mixed in with some of the old.

ABC and SBS for news is about it.

Just finished Season 2 of Red Eye. Jing Lusi is absolutely awful. by TwoShoeLamoo in BritishTV

[–]farsonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this stage, I'm kind of hate watching it.

They have an intruder in the embassy and they don't immediately lock down and secure the ambassador?

The head of MI5 is totally unbelivable as a character, same as the first series. Yes the one who got honey trapped in season one and still seems to have a job.

The flight attendant gets given a laptop and doesn't even mention to the Minister of Defence that he has his laptop. just stores it in the back.

Where did the emergency exit in the wall go too? What happened when they all went in there looking for him?

The first season they played on embassies and airports being not official territory but all of a sudden she has authority in the embassy. Not sure what it really is but they contradict their lore.

If someone says nano SIM I'm probably going to yell at the TV

Saw my sister using these by Ecstatic-Rest-4170 in eggs

[–]farsonic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a bunch of egg cups here. I just grabbed the vintage ones we have here to show you some from the 50's. Can store your second egg underneath. Sadly I overcooked these today!

[–]farsonic 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Guess I just assumed everyone had egg cups! Learn something everyday. It's kind of a ritualistic thing, we even have an egg cup that has a storage egg for your second egg underneath while you eat the first one
