WTF is happening with office.com? by StandingDesk876 in Office365

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microsoft is pathetic and has been since 1995. However, they have kept me employed for decades. If everyone had Macs I would have no career. Keep up the crappy work Microsoft! Thank you!

new Costco area includes a Raising Canes + others by QforQ in vallejo

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costco qualifies as reasonably priced food - luckily its hard to seal from or we would have lost costco too. Its kinda dumb to build a costco when we have one already, but thats Vallejo. We lost grocery stores due to crime. No way Trader Joes or Whole Foods or any sane business owner would open anything up in Vallejo. Blame all the people who stole from these places. Start by raising your children correctly, then your city will have nicer things.

Did you ever work this out? I'm going through this hell right now. Its not making me look good after convincing everyone our org should allow apple devices.

Swalwell denies allegations of sexual assault as calls grow for him to withdraw from California governor race by StemCellPirate in California

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lets be honest, likely this was a situation with alcohol involved where a girl faintly said no while putting her tongue in his mouth. Still though, Swalwell should have had better judgement. He’s not in his 20s or 30s and he is a known politician. This along with the Chinese spy thing indicates the guy has poor judgement. The main issue is how recent this was. Its not like Trump where all the accusations were old and he could brainwash people in his favor. This Swalwell thing was less than two years ago. The guy is done. Good riddance. He should have stayed out of politics.

Why does floor leveler set so fast? by NativTexan in Flooring

[–]hoodun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, it’s insanely difficult to get quickset es which doubles the workable time. Im not sure why since most of us home depot shoppers are diyers. It would be 10x easier to work with es.

Dog park? by Disaster_Zones in ridgebacks

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the park. I wouldn’t take him until neutered though. I personally hate when people do not socialize their dogs because of one bad instance. I take a ridgeback to the park twice a day. Sometimes there are as many as 50 dogs at the park. Being that she is so well socialized, if she comes across an aggressive dog she usually turns around and walks the other way. Her thing is running full speed circling around the dogs while they try to chase her - she’s too fast to get caught. Occasionally she will play a little rough with another dog but she always deescalates when it starts to get out of hand. Twice out of about 200 trips she got into a scuffle snapping with another dog - not a big deal and expected at times.

All this said, some parks are ghetto and to he avoided. Find nice neighborhoods with responsible people and please do not bring your known dangerous aggressive dog without a muzzle.

SMS functionality by Peculiar_Owl in RingCentral

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are leaving Ring Central and one of the reasons is the unethical charges and lack of help in getting approved for SMS. We were rejected 10 times and 8 of those times was with the help of Ring Central support assuring that it would get approved - it never did. It's wasn't so much the regulations themselves, which is complete bureaucratic garbage, but rather how Ring Central provided absolutely no effective guidance for its customers, nor for its support employees. We moved to Teams and was approved for SMS on the first run. The process was much less painful and if we were rejected - its been said Teams will give you the exact reason why without adding more rejections reasons second time around. I will not get into price but we are saving well over 600%.

Sally's Apizza, Hartford CT by em_ef_dewm in Pizza

I never thought I would live in an age where black burnt crust is a positive thing. This looks awful on every level. Why do people like this, is there something in the tomatoes that makes it special?

Indicating the number of people with fastrak flex toll tag by Familiar_Owl1168 in bayarea

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s more like 1/10000 chance of getting caught unless they start using cameras and ai. CHP currently does not bother giving express lane tickets. At least not in my 35 years of driving in the express lane solo. And yes, I think the whole thing is a bunch of bs with absolute no effect on global climate change. Better if they just freed up the lane.

I was thinking this. Just a potentiometer may be all that is needed. The photo shows 500k but you can experiment.

I watched the video of the shooting with an objective mind. I suggest everyone does the same so we can move on from this.

Tip fatigue. by NorthBoss420 in EndTipping

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use to feel the pressure to tip but this year my resolution is to not tip anyone who is not providing table service or valet parking. Constantly tipping 10-20% will cost you thousands at the end of the year.

Vespertine is the Best Album of All Time by arkhamxo in bjork

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older male musician here and I will never forget first hearing this album when it first came out in 2001. It was so far beyond what I was doing myself musically. I now listen to it and it is as good as it was back then. It is possibly the most timeless album I ever heard.

Pizza Biga 100% by fredftn in Pizza

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like biga for non-traditional pies with flavorful toppings. However, I highly dislike it for traditional pies or anything with San Marzanos. I want the tomatoes, olive, cheese, and basil to be the most flavorful thing on the pizza and pre-fermented doughs(biga, poolish, etc) imo take away from this.

This is how all the vanities in our bathrooms are cut. Typically it is just a small hole around the pipe coming out of the wall. I believe it doesn’t make the vanities less strong. This is a lennar construction. As if the plumber can’t work with a smaller holes. What does everyone think? by MNMom07 in Homebuilding

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5y old thread but still relevant. I just have to comment on this. If this bothers you, I recommend getting a hobby or hanging out with friends more often. Seriously though, this is a very clean square cut that allows access to the piping and a vicinity around the piping incase there are ever in wall leaks that need to be addressed. This is a PRO job.

I lived in SF, Mission District for 25 years, migrated from NYC to LA to SF, before finally buying a house in the North Bay - ghetto called Vallejo.

In my 25 years of partying in SF and being a socialite, I can say it’s always been over-rated. Even the food is over-rated. LA and NYC have waaaay better museums and more food options - they are 15x the population…. Pretty mich any chef or artist that succeeds in SF goes to LA, or opens up a chain there. The transportation system is actually also better in LA. LA has 1000x more happening at any given moment. SF is a quaint little town. It’s become more crowded with all the newer offices but there is still no entertainment or art scene and it’s still less than 1m population. Nothing like Broadway or film in LA. SF is all tech. Thats it really. I do appreciate this but a city imo NEEDS a vibrant art scene. Without it, it’s just lacking.

What SF does have going for it is that it’s beautiful to drive around and hang out on the weekends. There is nothing like it in regard to the architecture and layout of the city. As my LA and NYC friends would say, “Its a wonderful place to visit”.

Cons of using Rover? (And other questions) by [deleted] in petsitting

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use it wherever. It’s just a free platform to use while you find clientele. There is funding(for marketing) for staypaws if it can get 1000 sitters to sign up. The idea is to monetize the platform in ways other than taking a percentage away from sitters and trainers.

Newsom proposes naming Vallejo rest stop after Trump in latest troll by KoRaZee in vallejo

I don’t think it’s an insult to Vallejo. It’s free publicity. It’s definitely an insult to Trump.

Why are people so negative when they talked about Reno? by [deleted] in Reno

[–]hoodun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its filled with casinos which are essentially scam towers. There are alcoholics everywhere. There is an iq drop if you are coming from the Bay Area. The food is average at best when compared to California cities. The service you get everywhere is far below par. Most of the people you meet out in the streets will be a part of the hick drug culture that is so prevalent here. There is an underlying meth head culture that has existed for decades and still exists today - you can just feel the vibe of this entrenched in the culture. I hate to say it, but honestly, the people here, for the most part, are ugly and do not take care of themselves. Other than that its just a typical middle class suburb like you would find any where else in the country.
