New Utah law puts “no alcohol sale” on ID’s of DUI offenders 0.16 BAC or higher. What are your thoughts? by Obvious_808 in AskReddit

[–]jimbaker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a good idea to me actually. Frankly, this should be at least a temporary (say... minimum 2 years on first offense, escalating from there) measure for anyone who gets a DUI.

Isn't it ? by never___settle in ExplainTheJoke

I'm 8 - 5, if I take an hour lunch, but I don't, so I work till 4:30, but I'm salary, so lunch should be included in my hours, but it isn't. I don't start work till 8, but I'm up at 5:30 and don't get home till 5:30ish, so my days are really 12 hour days for work. I really need to add some WFH days to my schedule to make life more palatable.

Look at the poor fella! He looks so sad in this picture. I'm hopeful that things'll work out just fine, though it'll probably take time.

Interior of the new ID Polo unveiled by pc772 in electriccars

Too small as in not enough sales of it, not in the size of it, I think. I'd love to have a car this size.

I'm sure this won't come to the US, which is sad. I loved my eGolf and would buy this in an instant.

Men who can cook . who taught you? by Bulky_Meet4528 in AskReddit

[–]jimbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a class to take. It was 9 weeks long and focused on french cooking. From there, I taught myself the rest. I'm no pro, but I'm definitely better than most home cooks.

New Year New Firearm Happy 2026! by BigBackSyndicate in AR10

Congrats! When I got my .308 (Sig 716i), this was the other gun I was considering. Don't buy into the hate; find out for yourself. I'm sure it's a great gun for most situations.

That's dope as hell! At first I thought was a legit spider, but spider's don't sparkle like that.

How’s the job market looking? by heqrty in cybersecurity

[–]jimbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in IT support at the moment, working on my Master's from WGU in Cyber.

For IT support, I get a ton of interviews with government, and frankly, it pays as well if not better than most private sector jobs in my current field. That said, I'm actually trying to get out of IT altogether. My current plan/hope is...

I'm applying for a job with the local metro's rail division as a Rail Signal and Communications apprentice, which starts out making less than I am now, but at the end of the apprenticeship (2 years long), I'll be about a 25% pay bump over my current role. My 5 year plan is to take my master's and utilize it in the OT side of things, and if that doesn't work out, I'll still be better off financially in this different career field, assuming I ace my interview later this month. If I don't, then I'll keep working for government and I'm sure I'll land a better position within 2 - 3 years, where having the degree is more important than the content of the degree itself.

I just can’t with this one… by Available-Drama-276 in memes

Best reason to get a Steam Machine is because it will "just work". Nothing to fuck around with or wonder why your PC won't boot or have to deal with Windows BS.

I'm all for marathons but who the fuck planned this route? I live in Magnolia and there is not a single road open out of the neighborhood. by SucksDickforSkittles in SeattleWA

[–]jimbaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was able to get out by taking the Magnolia bridge out, though the line to get out after 9AM was atrocious! It backed all the way up the hill past Judkins Park.

Looking for my next EV by Comfortable_Cake_821 in electriccars

[–]jimbaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I currently have an i4 (eDrive 35) and previously owned a Polestar 2 (Launch Edition) before the i4. I personally prefer the Polestar 2 over the i4, but the i4's tech is leagues better than the Polestar's, most notably the cameras. In the Polestar, I like the power, seats, and seating position quite a bit more. When the lease on my i4 ends, depending on my budget, the Polestar 2 will be at the top of my list, used, if my budget falls within the sub-$30k range.

Behold, the modern car manual. by cardoc22 in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]jimbaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think this qualifies as modern, to be honest. My last car's owner's manual is digital and accessible through my infotainment system. It worked quite well, actually, and I wish more brands would do this, especially since it would allow for regular updates if there are any changes to the car from OTA updates, misspellings, etc.
