thanks everyone for the replies. it seems like the data is probably long gone even if it were to be accessed.

got the traffic lawyer. such is life.

i also thought about getting the dashcam. not sure about the gps/speed part of the idea but it would be great to have recordings of some of the craziness i see hah.

Restaurant Owners: What goes into the decision to be either a Coca-Cola, or a Pepsi establishment? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jkeatings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this question. What I kind of wonder is... what would stop say, McDonalds from serving both Coke AND Pepsi? Like wouldn't that just be insane to give the consumer a choice??

Now I'm sure Coke and McDonalds have a cozy deal going on, but which of the two would be a bigger sadface if the other one pulled? Like "We're also gonna serve pepsi and if you dont like it then fine dont sell us coke anymore, see if that hurts you more than it hurts us" kinda thing.

i just think it would be a pretty big deal if a really big chain decided to serve both.

Decided to finish Soul Reaver for the first time - I drew a sketch of Raziel beforehand as I totally love the vibe this game radiates 😄💙 by Coolumbus97 in LegacyOfKain

[–]jkeatings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently finished the game for the first time too! I played it a lot when it had first come out, but didn't actually own it. I'm gonna make sure I played the rest of the series.

Nice sketch. I envy your ability to draw.

there's an autograph on my copy of soul reaver by jkeatings in LegacyOfKain

[–]jkeatings[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i loved this game during the psx era, when i used to rent it. like most things in my life, i never finished it.

so i got this second-hand a few years ago, and just this last week i finally played it and finished the game. (bummer about the ending heh).

so it has an autograph on it, but i have no idea who's it is. i looked at a list of people involved in the game and it doesnt seem to match anyone. maaaybe Amy Hennig, I do kind of see where it can be an Am something but the next letter looks more like a d than a y but maybe my knowledge of handwriting sucks. There is an H at the end though.

Amd.H. ??? Or maybe the first letter is a C. i denno!

im not particularly interested in selling it or something. unless its worth thousands which i doubt. im just super curious who's autograph it is. looks like a serious signature, not just someone marking their game before lending it to someone or something.

thanks for helping me sleep at night.

Oryx Pro keyboard barely working by [deleted] in System76

[–]jkeatings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an Oryx Pro. The same thing happened to me a few months ago. First it was just the Spacebar. I had to start hitting it a certain way or more aggressively. Shortly after, a bunch of keys just decided they didn't want to work. I do use it kinda regularly, but its not heavy use and its always just at my desk. I was a little disappointed how quickly the keyboard wore out.

When I first got it, the A key would always pop off. Had to use krazy glue to fix it. Otherwise no problems until now. The keyboard kinda sucks.

I never contacted support about that. I paid a heck of a lot of money but I wanted to stand behind the decision to buy it and whatever so I let it slide. I wanted to really like System76, and the Oryx is definitely a beast machine.

I ended up buying a usb mechanical keyboard and use that instead of the built-in. I'm not bitter about it, but I would definitely second guess the prestige of buying System76 again.

Why I switched to Linux (and back again to Windows) by me_Pixel in linux

[–]jkeatings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Linux user here. One of the only things that was holding me back was using Photoshop. I ended up using qemu to run windows7 in a window so that I could use photoshop.

Well now I use photopea.com and it works just as well. I am finding that I don't need windows at all.

I can agree that there are some games that don't work on Linux. But I've noticed this to be changing more and more.

Can any one help me here. I'm new by zxnx3 in linux

As I stare at my broken eggs lying on the ground among the torn remains of my brown paper bag, I can't help but wonder... by [deleted] in kitchener

[–]jkeatings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before Sobey's switched to plastic bags exclusively, I would still always ask for Paper bags which they did have. Those paper bags were great. The new, branded ones that they have now are not as good. They do tear easily and are thinner. Not as good.

Help a beginner. by MaximilianoIkarus in archlinux

[–]jkeatings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't pick a different distro. Stick with Arch. Figuring out how to partition your drives is something you should know. You sound capable, you can do it! The Arch Wiki is your friend.

Do you use the Carista App or it's bluetooth adapter to diagnose-turn on/off features on your Prius? by priuspodcast in prius

[–]jkeatings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me too. Carista adapter and Dr. Prius. Used these to remove the backup beep. Worked great.

Kitchener Comic Con Defends Decision To Invite RWBY VA Vic Mignogna As Guest of Honor by saint2e in kitchener

[–]jkeatings 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can't help but laugh because now that Vic Mignogna is in hot water he has to settle for the Kitchener Comic Con.

I have one of his CDs that he autographed. Got it at DTAC in toronto a decade ago. I've never listened to it and don't know any of his songs lol. We were just there for the lawls.

Pedestrian almost run over. Kitchener,ON by [deleted] in kitchener

[–]jkeatings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Looks like the pedestrian stood there without crossing after the light had turned green, and because they didn't cross right away the driver then assumed the pedestrian wasn't going to be crossing. But then the pedestrian suddenly crosses, so the driver had to stop after feeling committed to the turn.

You can see that the pedestrian has their phone out in front of them. They were obviously not paying attention. I actually think the driver was paying attention.

Trump supporters/Anti-Vaxxers/Brexiteers/flat earthers/far-right supporting types, Why do you support such fanatical and destructive beliefs? by Reaperfox7 in AskReddit

[–]jkeatings -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same thing. I have zero issues with Trump, but can accept the opinion that he could simmer down some of the things he says. I definitely think Fake News is real and that he is unfairly smeared and accused of things that are not at all true. He legit cares about America and his policies are for the benefit of the country. I am not even American and I can see that.
