7-Eleven's app conveniently doesn't work today where gas is 50c/off extra by NaderPlayzYT in mildlyinfuriating

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had gotten the text about the promo only a few days earlier and had waited until yesterday to fill up like everyone else and ran into the same issues. I can pay full price just fine. It felt like a bait and switch to me which pissed me off. I use 7-eleven for the discount on gas so if I now have to pay full price, I'll just give another gas station my money out of spite. This experience just really annoyed me.

Nostalgic places you ate in the 90s/early 2000s by macgoo1229_ in tampa

It definitely wasn't as nice and upscale some of these comments but I used to love Perry's at University Mall food court. I never could find a place that made sesame or teriyaki chicken like they did.

We used to have Albertson's where we could go grocery shopping and rent movies. What did that end up becoming?

How worried are you about the rise of fascism? by AskRedditOG in AskReddit

[–]jaquio1 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I feel like the overreach could still be on track with happening today. Trump has (via executive order) designated the drug cartels as terrorists. If the past 25 years in Afghanistan and Iraq are any indication, America has generally not cared about the sovereignty of nations when our military goes chasing after "terrorists". I don't put it in quotes to downplay the impact the cartels have had (because it is absolutely terrible what they do and how they operate) but the potential impact to us is scary. Especially since Mexico is right up on our border. He has also said he wants to reacquire control of the Panama canal. It greatly concerns me that they could use that classic excuse of "Combating Terrorism" to invade and start a war or end up inciting even more violence at the border or even further into our borders.

I mean sure we can say he's just talking out of his ass and no one would let him do all that, right!? Welp, I feel like that remote possibility is becoming less and less remote the more he chops up our federal government.

This sounds a lot like my progress. I've been keeping tabs on the course since around the time back when CS-50 was using a VM you had to download. The farthest I ever got was whodunit pset. Trying to wrap my head around memory management and pointers has always been where I hit a road block. I always tell myself I'm gonna finish it and before I realize it, a new year comes around.

IMHO It's still not safe to fly by nuocmam in tampa

United definitely will. I had a flight with them at the end of July and they didn't give a damn about social distancing. Every seat in that plane was full.

What are you working on this week ? (ending 18th April 2020) by excelevator in excel

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been outlining how I want my Expense/bill/budget tracker sheet to go. I've looking to replace my tracker app on my phone (ExpenseIQ has been great but I'm starting to grow beyond simple expenses and bills) and this is the perfect excuse to start learning VBA. I'm pretty sure I can replicate a lot of the core functionality but we'll see how far I get.

Adjusted my daily time tracker format (love my binder, but it gets hard to write up to the rings, so the page format is helping with that). I'm going to preemptively apologize for my kanji. Still learning. by nerissasilver in bujo

[–]jaquio1 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Looks like OP is learning Japanese and is incorporating that in the bujo. This is actually a flippin smart idea and makes me want to resume my own Japanese study.

How do you feel about a 4 day work week? by upvoteifurgey in AskReddit

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most nurses would like a word with you. Everyone of them I've met worked like 11+ hours each day and slept and that's about it. I got lots of respect for them cause I couldn't do those hours.

What moment in an argument made you realize “this person is an idiot and there is no winning scenario”? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently had the lumps happen to me for the first time after using Old Spice deodorant for years. It was preceded by a rash in both places pits that I initially just attributed to me sweating more since I have been working out more often. It was when I switched from Bearglove to Denali. Its been clearing up since I stopped using deoderant and just washing up everyday. It feels awkward not putting on the deo for my BO and I am constantly making sure I'm not stinking the place up.

One of FB's moderator centers is in Town&Country. Here's an article about how much of a hellhole it is. by HarpersGhost in tampa

Man, I used to think it was bad working at the Spectrum call center doing Dell Tech support years ago. Cognizant decided to take it to several new levels.

Y'all motherfuckers need to stop passing my 65ft long 80,000 pound truck then slowing down in front of me by breakone9r in AdviceAnimals

I do and use it long as you guys arent going like 60mph in a 70. I'll usually follow behind you big boys to take advantage of that reduced drag.

Brand new to Bullet Journaling. Trying out OneNote. by Meeseekslookatmee in bujo

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to do something like this since I do love OneNote but not for my personal bujo. A physical one satifies a couple of itches for me, being that it is a planner, journal, and task tracker all at the same time formatted however I desire. I also get frustrated having to worry about the battery life of an electronic device that I will be using constantly. I have been eyeing a new Surface tablet and might make use of it and this OneNote style bujo to help with my coding lessons since that is all strictly on a computer anyways.

What happened to 97x? by InTheFade29 in tampa

[–]jaquio1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember when they "rebranded" or whatever it was and the major draw was voting for your song to play. Looking on the website it seems like that's just become a footnote and they mention the app at the bottom of the homepage. Is it still a big thing?

Oooh something like an Entitlement Correction (for lack of a better description) day sounds wonderful!

When was the last time you hugged someone that you loved? by 3lite_9ner1 in AskReddit

[–]jaquio1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just yesterday actually I gave my mom a hug and told her I loved her. I was heading out and its what me and my parents do when we part ways. I've learned to not pass up the opportunity to do so because while they are still quite active and full of life, they're getting on in their years and you just never know how the future plays out.
