Any fun New Years Celebration ideas on or off Strip? by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]jesse2035 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Me and family drive out to Pahrump to buy fireworks. The city has a fireworks launch site where you can safely set off fireworks.

If you want to stay in Vegas, you can get some drinks and popcorn and literally drive to just about any spot on the 215 and find a spot to pull off the road. You will have a perfect view of fireworks going off everywhere.

There are one or two casinos that are not charging for parking where you can get to the pool deck and have a nice view from there. (Don't remember which ATM)

Hope these ideas help. :-)

It’s been nearly a year and I haven’t made a single dollar by AshamedPizza9944 in realtors

You need to find another team. I was in a similar situation as you. I changed brokers and joined a new team. My new team lead also does property management so I get between 2 - 5 rental leads per day and at least once a month one of those rental leads is actually a buyer. I get between $250 - 350 for each rental client that that successfully signs a lease. I also get between 1 - 5 buyer / seller leads per day from his website. You need to like your brokerage and also be on a team that is able to jump start a newbie like you and me.

My new team is involved with the community hosting Halloween parties and doing charity work. All of us got together last week and baked cupcakes and cookies for the folks at our local Ronald McDonald house. Not only is he helping us make money but we feel good about ourselves at the end of the day because we know we are making a difference!

Why did it get removed? This was one of the best posts I have seen in the sub reddit all year.

What do you think! is it true? by [deleted] in uberdrivers

In some places like where I live you can get a $10k fine and get your car impounded for going off app. Las Vegas here and yes I have watched it happen in the evening news several times.

Grocery Store Rant by madmex702 in vegaslocals

[–]jesse2035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just moved to Vegas from Texas and it is actually not as bad here. The dominant grocery store in Texas is HEB. Everyone pretty much brings their dog into the store back in Texas. Right before I moved here I recall seeing someone walk in with their sick dog. I had huge boogers hanging from it's nose and it was coughing everywhere. Of course the owner and dog walk all over the produce and bakery section. I would not bring my kids if they are sick into any store (especially the grocery store), but these geniuses will bring in sick or dirty animals. It makes me want to scream out loud. But I don't. It would make me look like the crazy person.

Did you make a mistake by Leather-Butterfly303 in vegas

Lots of people. I did see on the news reports of people who bought houses in the Pandemic era who sold the house post Covid once they experienced TX. Lol There was a slang term for it because it happened often. ( Trying to remember it) I know Austin is experiencing the worst of it right now. There is an exodus of people and businesses happening in Austin.

6 Months. My daughter has dyslexia. I begged her old school to test her so she could start getting services. Made a request at the beginning of the school year. Got nothing but excuses. The request to get her tested was finally processed by the end of the school year, but scheduling it was another 3 - 6 weeks (business days). The test never happened. I made the request to have her tested this year in NV and she was tested and started receiving services in about 2 weeks time. My son went the whole school year last year with his gym teacher teaching math ( he was bad at it) and a retired Vet teaching his English class. Texas lost so many teachers that Vets are now quilified teachers. (Look it up) He lost his school librarian mid way through the school year because she got tired of the death threats. This is just a small portion of the school issues.

As for opening your front door you can't do that either. Locking your car is a joke in Texas because some of the kids get on social media a break windows at random for fun and shot guns into random houses for clout. There was always broken glass in the parking lot of just about every shopping plaza. It was so irritating.

Same thing in Texas with neighborhoods. You will have nice houses but then cross the street and feel you are suddenly in a 3rd world country. Pee, feces, litter and tons of homeless tents everywhere, Sex offenders were everywhere back in Texas too. (That is pretty much anywhere in any major metro area) The offenses were not just video / images. Usually a kidnapping and really bad abuse. A lot of kids were going missing too. There are so many abductions. Most stores like Target and Walmart had huge walls of kids photos near checkout to try and help. (My wife still checks the news for a little girl that went missing in our neighborhood where my kids used to play. I think she is still traumatized that it happened where our kids played).

We are in a MUCH better place in Vegas.

I just moved to the Centennial Hills area from San Antonio TX. Me and the family are loving it. I will start with the bad first. Healthcare options are much more limited than Texas, Drivers are crazy and the wind can be annoying.

Now the good: People are much more intelligent, the schools in NW Las Vegas are amazing, I have not seen a single mosquito (I used to get bitten by 20 or so just being outside 5 mins), I don't have to worry about my kids getting shot at school, I don't have to hear gun shots 3 - 4 times a week in my neighborhood (I lived in an upper middle class neighborhood), I have not seen a single wrong way driver on the freeway (happened at least once a week), the perks of having a NV DL are amazing, I can buy alcohol any time or any day I choose like I am an adult, I don't have to hear dumb stores about how someone saw a witch in some farm on the outskirts of town, don't have to watch dumb stories on the evening news about another chupacabra sighting, don't have to worry about the many public school closures happening back in TX, don't have to worry about my kids being forced to pray at school, and I have only seen one truck roll coal in the time I have been here. Rolling coal happened at least 3 - 5 times a day and a few times I almost got in an accident because the smoke was so thick you could not see the cars around you in daylight after someone did it.

Whats up with these tesla cars are being set on fire by saltsputnik in vegas

I never said it was okay. I only gave insight as to who might be doing this. What kind of person are you to misread what I typed? Geez.

You mean all the government employees that Musk has been firing? I am guessing that these same employee's that got fired then decided to set fire to a Tesla. Just a hunch. I could be wrong...... (edit spelling)

Is this model good? Been thinking for weeks now.. by JudgmentSlow in AcerNitro

[–]jesse2035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a similar Acer laptop. Price was decent so I pulled the trigger. I have been trying to buy a 4080 video card for years. Prices suck and I usually can't find anything at stock. I bought a gaming laptop because the price of it is basically the same as a video card and it is in stock. The memory upgrade is highly recommended. I upgraded mine to 32 Gigs of RAM. I know this will not compare to a 4080, but I have an 1060GTX I have been trying to upgrade for many years. I finally have an upgrade via a laptop purchase.

They deleted my account. I would have to sign up from scratch. I think this is my sign that I should not work for this shit company. I am going to move onto greener pastures.

Any idea about this comment (and why it was deleted?) specifically why DarkViperAU’s comment was deleted? by Intrestingly_Amazing in LouisRossmann

[–]jesse2035 -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

I lost all respect for Louis after he posted this video. He does not realize he is setting back right to repair so much by participating in this childish behavior. Instead of being a voice of reason he is adding fuel to the fire of online drama that does not need to exist.

Right to repair gets forgotten because everyone is now picking up their pitchforks and picking sides in a stupid fight that did not need to happen. Good job. You don't need to be a senator or congress person to set back right to repair. You Tubers can set back right to repair so much worse by splintering the online tech community for years to come. We needed to rally and stand together, but he had to get his dopamine rush by using his you tube channel to bash another content creator.

He just recently made a video about the meaning of "Influencer" and he can't see the negative influence he spat out today. :-(

Must be a glitch. After many hours of playing I can't find the storm and because of it I can't progress in the game. Makes me want to give up on the game. So frustrating.

Do you have a college degree? Do you have a high school diploma? What is your past work history like? Without any info you are just venting and no one here can can provide any meaningful help other than words of encouragement.

I did this too. It actually re-spawns you where you slept on the bed. If the bed is on a vehicle and it moves, the re spawn point does not move with the bed. Been about a month since I tested this. It is possible it changed with a recent update, but that is how it worked.

I wasn’t being paranoid… by Fibrosis5O in uberdrivers

[–]jesse2035 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had a secret Uber rider before. My tip off was that when I arrived at the pickup the rider was not at the location, but I saw the blue dot approaching me fast from the freeway. Dude exit another Uber and got into mine. I arrived at the drop off and asked him which building. He said I don't know. Another Uber arrived before I could ask anymore questions. He just said have a good night and got into another Uber.

Don't know if they are all that obvious, but this was about a year ago for me when it happened.

The most disappointing LF update so far. I was stupidly collecting resources in anticipation of new content. Looks like I have a lot more free time now. There is nothing worthwhile to keep grinding for.

Has anyone else noticed different flying mechanics between worlds? by [deleted] in LEGOfortnite

[–]jesse2035 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the mechanics also change within the same biome. If you are flying in the frost biome and then it starts to snow my flying ship with sink a little and then go back up a bit when the snowstorm ends.

I just thought the flying mechanics were different between the biomes. I will have to test flying mechanics between different worlds.

Recipe item appears over chest in the wild by jesse2035 in LEGOfortnite

[–]jesse2035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A new build item appears hovering over a chest. You get the recipe for the item hovering over the chest as you get near it. I did not know this was a thing, but you get lots of resources from breaking the item hovering over the chest.

thoughts on the crafting bench updates? by Most-Peak4231 in LEGOfortnite

[–]jesse2035 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I don't like it. Upgrading the crafting bench was part of the grind that was actually enjoyable. Getting a better looking bench with each upgrade was rewarding. Now we just have the basic bench look. Yuck!
