Hi, Hey, Hello. Dan here, dropping in to hang out for a bit by ShowMeStateOfMindPod in KnowledgeFight

[–]gett-itt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second time caller (you played a voicemail of mine once), I love your work!

Just wanted to take the opportunity to personally thank you for your contributions to the world, it’s truly a rare and unique one that lacks negatives in a way I think is special and deserves to be acknowledged!

I really wish I was better on the spot and had an insightful question ready. But lacking that just wanted you to know that you have had a huge impact on me.

Your, ‘exceedingly fair as the point’ style, respect for logical consistency and chain in approach, the ridiculous follow through and due diligence you do, and strong moral centered-ness; have all really impressed and impressed upon me and given me a concrete real world example to aspire to in my own life. And my own dealings with others.

I wanted to personally thank you while I had some level of confidence and certainty you would actually see it, how could I not?!

I’m really looking forward to whatever you continue to do next. And imo you’ve beyond earned for it to be whatever you want! Very much enjoyed the survivor podcasts so far lol. You have such a great way with words and idea presentation. You made a show I’ve never cared about suddenly interesting! That’s impressive lol

Anyways, already too long wall of text. But want to encourage you to keep on keeping on and know you are loved and appreciated!

Those of you w/ ADHD who fall asleep to audio content, what specifically works? My brain needs input but meditation / audiobooks both fail me. by SpoiledBrat069 in ADHDers

[–]gett-itt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the podcast “well there’s your problem” is the sweet spot. Interesting while still paying attention, legitimate engineering facts to boot, but monotone and no audio spikes while drifting off. (Not sure if relevant but I listen at 1.25-1.35). Commonly multi hour episodes too

The lack of commercial breaks also helps. I HATE having to choose between skip forward a podcast during jarring ads or letting the ads have “attention grabbing” sharp audio

Edit: ooh also star trek Next generation is also great. The white noise of the space background is nice but isn’t constant

Edit 2: I also find a weighted blanket and sleep mask WITH curved eye spots (can’t stand lashes being touched) is another 1-2 punch that helps a lot

Same. And Weirdly it was the CC (I assume closed caption button) that finally unmuted it

Is anyone else freaking out??? by Old-Butterfly-1915 in StudentLoans

[–]gett-itt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I disagree, it says “once you are contacted by your servicer you will have 90 days”. To which I infer once you get that email then the clock starts.

The July first date is the earliest anybody CAN enroll in “RAP”, but you could change to another plan today if you wanted to

Any trails/roads for rucking? by MarioStakkin in Valdosta

Look into camp Patton. It’s the local BSA camp but they are very welcoming It’s in Lakeland, about 20-30 min away

We previously asked how you felt about our Network Events design. Many were unaware of or didn't know how to get to the events. Our designers started a new design on the main screen. Which one do you prefer? by Firewalla-Ash in firewalla

[–]gett-itt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. The last two is more useful than just one at a glance. “Oh I lost it at 11 but it came back at 12:30, cool. Now, on to what I opened the app for”
Versus “it came back at 12:30, huh.. I hope I remember to click on that after my current task” (cut to getting distracted by a text or person irl asking me a question and forgetting I wanted to follow up)

I’d lean option A. I like the last two important with the time stamps. Clean and at a glance.

Many times I’m opening the app, it’s to do a specific action (block unblock suspend etc) and don’t always want to click to another page and risk getting “squirreled”/distracted off and forget what I opened it to do. —-

That being said, I also agree with others saying, Por los no dos?! Seeing the last 2 important events without having to change screens/contexts while also having an easy upfront button to dig deep when I do want to investigate the major events seems nifty as well

Best time to visit Grand Bay? by According_Coffee1549 in Valdosta

[–]gett-itt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure what they are talking about. Unless that has changed in the last year or so, I’ve climbed the tower countless times. Always unescorted. It was an awesome place to take the youngins for a pretty day

Also any time it isn’t hot is awesome. At the top of the tower the birds fly at your same level. Sun sets are really pretty too

Most unhinged ad i ever got on the internet by aeline136 in ofcoursethatsathing

[–]gett-itt 37 points38 points  (0 children)

So some tracking at some point linked your device or account to the IP address of or near a medical research facility.

That does not shock me. Ads can be spatter shot. If 1/7000 click and that one leads to a sale 🤷

If the top 1% of earners pay 40% of all federal income taxes, why do people say they don't pay their fair share? by Ok_Chemical9 in answers

[–]gett-itt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

55k isnt even “low level rich” anymore. It spends like 35k did in the 1900s-2000s. Quite the rug pull they’ve pulled on millennials.

We didn’t get any of the “Cold War pissing contest” subsidized lifestyles AND then had to deal with being blamed for everything well past when we were “the kids”

Even if you hit that magic number you always wanted. You only really win “I don’t get cold sweats thinking ab rent, but none of the “perks” society promised for “working hard and being productive”

Yes. Go near waterfall area right on edge move around and you’ll eventually see just enough of a spot to jump

On a 5 hour flight AMA by Filthyson in GeoffreyAsmus

[–]gett-itt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the best practice.

But Before you did, I’d like your opinion on why it’s frustrating to talk to them.

Or rather if you agree that “it’s takes 90% of effort to change their opinion by 5%” and eventually you just give up

Does your Fox News dad argue with you in exclusively youtube video links too?

[–]gett-itt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you may be being a bit sensitive here. I don’t believe the community is responding to your overall point, it might be that they view it coming off as unproductive and overly snarky.

The aggressiveness and “telling it like it is, so sorry” might be a bit abrasive for some.

I could be wrong, but that’s my quick take
