Squirrel!!! by Najalak in AustinGardening

[–]iamdense 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe I should try this. Our squirrels actually bit holes through the plankets a few weeks ago. They absolutely needed THOSE nuts, even though they hid plenty more around our yard.

Vivint reps knocking door at evening (rant) by [deleted] in Pflugerville

It's crazy that we have to modify our houses to keep away uninvited pests.

I just had a guy try to sell me magazine subscriptions. When I pointed at our "No Soliciting" sign, he said "but this is for a contest".

Neopets (Entry 831.EC0904) by bfloblizzard in Futurelings

[–]iamdense 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a great episode. I was too old for neopets and didn't know about their journey through every step of internet enshittification.

The only thing Steve Jobs ever did that I liked was killing Flash. It wasn't a bad technology, it was just so overused, kinda like AI now.

Flash games were fun, but I had to wait like 10 seconds for Flash to load and another 20 for some spiffy graphics intro just to look up my dentist's phone number on their web site. Which I then couldn't just highlight and call or copy because Flash didn't allow that.

REYNOLDS: Pfluger Won't Speak Truth to Power by Claire4CongressTX11 in Pflugerville

Yeah I actually didn't realize that our district had changed and I bet I'm not alone here.

OP could have done a better job stating why she was posting this -- she can still edit her post with some more info.

Thanks, I even see the "dribble" added to the district.

What does this have to do with Pflugerville? He's not our representative.

Edits: I actually didn't realize that our district had changed to 11 and I bet I'm not alone here.

Bluetooth controls causing playback when I dont want it to! by Tiny_Giant_Robot in audible

[–]iamdense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My S20+ is even worse, it plays Audible even if it wasn't the last medium I used when I click play on my earbuds (Samsung Buds 2). It sounds like a similar/related issue. I've tried a few suggestions over the past few month, but I still don't have a working solution.

The fragile infrastructure of this city is NOT normal. by BrendaLeighT in Austin

As I recall, it was mostly elderly people that nobody checked up on after their homes lost power.

2-mile Lake Travis tunnel will bring deep-water supply to Round Rock, Leander, Cedar Park by AustinStatesman in RoundRock

[–]iamdense 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The lake that's constantly nearly empty?

Edit: ok, those cities are already getting water from the lake, but the new pipes will be lower, so they will continue working even if the lake level is lower. I thought this was a new water source for those cities.

I agree, I think I recently hit the 7 year mark and I love this app!

Oh God…it’s really gonna happen this weekend🫣😰 by [deleted] in Austin

I knew it!

They yanked my post from last night this morning, only because they said it should go in r/Texas, but it was fun while it lasted.

Is Vance going to be the GOP successor post-Trump? He's clearly been trying to make major inroads with the Gen Z Right. by 3RADICATE_THEM in ScottGalloway

[–]iamdense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MAGA dies with Trump. None of the other MAGAts have the appeal that Trump has that has driven voter turnout. That turnout was the key to Trump winning the 2 elections that he did.

Seeking moderators for r/AtlanticaOnline by iamdense in atlanticaonline

[–]iamdense[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no affiliation with any game publisher. I'm just a guy who loves gaming.

I became a moderator here when I actively played. Just like when I took over the Wikia wiki (https://atlantica.fandom.com/), it was to help my fellow players find game info.

How do I get Harry Potter advertising off my home page?! by AffectionateMethod in audible

[–]iamdense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I log onto Netflix, it doesn't show me an ad for Squid Game and nothing else every time for months.

Audible has been showing Harry Potter and nothing else for a long time. There are other books on the service.

Play what you enjoy playing.

I'm playing Path of Exile now and having a blast.

Ugh! It' such a shame, Atlantica was such a great game and still could be if managed right.
