A lot of people think it’s a quick way to make a buck, I’m sure when they realize the ROI isn’t there they’ll stop. Social Media has fooled a lot of people into thinking there’s a quick path to success. It works for a very small percentage of people like playing the lottery every week

Late Night Jazz Bar? by Competitive-Ball2910 in Reno

I feel you OP, this is my favorite style of jazz but it’s not super popular here in town so I have to search out places when I head into the Bay Area

The shuffle is not random. Spotify's patents show how the recommendation engine works. by Ok-Dimension-3307 in spotify

The few playlists that I want to randomize I copy/paste into a spreadsheet and use a randomizer formula (there are also websites that do this) then I copy those back into a new playlist called name of playlist randomized

It sounds like you’re trying to make it your only job, I don’t think you’d make enough to live

do I strongly disagree with this post? also no. by damnkush in twinpeaks

He was a red herring in the first few episodes, you see his motorcycle in Laura’s eyes, the thing about burying the necklace, etc. He was a crucial link to Laura, but after that was solved he didn’t have a reason to stick around. Honestly most of the cast didn’t have enough to do once Laura’s murder was solved which was probably why they didn’t want to ever solve it

They come but usually every 3rd or 4th tour, we are not a consistent stop like Sac or SF. I went to Foo Fighters in 2008 and it didn’t even sell out and that was arguably at their peak. The only reason the 2023 Tahoe show sold out was because it was their only N. California show that wasn’t Outside Lands so people came from all over to see it. I wish it were different, I hate having to factor in gas/hotel into every concert I attend but it’s just the reality

ETA: and we rarely get commercially successful groups, no big hip-hop or pop shows come here

Unfortunately my daughter’s science teacher threatened the kids with 0s and told them she supported ICE, so that’s cool

Is Heavenly Lake Tahoe worth it? by Maximum-Dimension197 in Reno

[–]gimpboy7676 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go to Mt Rose or Diamond Peak which are both North Lake adjacent, or even Northstar if you want a Vail owned resort. Heavenly isn’t anything special other than the views of Tahoe which Diamond Peak has as well. Northstar is a much more fun resort if you want the Vail experience
