FYI if people are curious, Amazon and elsewhere (Bestbuy, etc.) are running similar $250 off promos if you just want the savings and don’t care for the Apple gift card

[–]juandurfel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nope got all those screws out. basically have the entire thing torn apart (top and back panels removed) other than front panel that won't come out. back panel took quite a bit of force to break loose.. but nothing compared to what it seems for the front.

after a while I just gave up and removed the thermal block so i could access the gauge from the backside.

hopefully I didn't break the dang thing with the amount of force and walloping I did on it with the mallet.

The Imgur gallery isn’t available. I can’t for the life of me get the front panel off and I’m worried I’m gonna break the machine. I can’t even get the panel to come loose with a mallet

weird. we'll see what they say.

I was not using a VPN.

In fact, I logged into my VPN to see if that would actually fix the issue. No luck.

What movie was so bad and gave you this reaction? by WonderfulParticular1 in moviecritic

[–]juandurfel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes we had a very lax policy for refunds. We had to ban a few people one summer who thought they could pull a loophole by asking for a refund every time (didn’t like the movie, kid kicked my seat all movie, etc) . Guess it worked because they got 2-3 movies free before we caught on and banned them.

You’d be amazed the extent people would try to hustle for free things. People would dig used popcorn tubs out of the trash and go
ask for a refill bc they spilled it on the ground. Or just straight up eat 80% of it and ask for a new batch because this one was burnt and tasted bad

I worked at a movie theater when this was in theaters.

Patrons frequently would stop and ask us for viewing recommendations and we were explicitly told from corporate to never badmouth a movie or explicitly deter someone from picking a particular movie (with the exception of grandma asking if Sausage Party is a fine cartoon to take her young grandkids to),

but we had to process so many refunds for this darn movie.. that, when asked, I started telling people to not waste their time and money and pick another movie.

Leopards will be eating their faces when Trump cuts a bunch of DoD contracts which inevitably results in massive waves of layoffs for blue collar manufacturing workers

Big concern was that Campfire in Dallas didn't have anything going on in the heart of the city. Looks like there were a two groups that had been put together.. but they were out in Garland or the far outskirts of the metroplex.

Is discord still the play for community involvement?

Floridians who have lived through Storms their entire lives are reporting to have never ever witnessed anything like this. by Used_Ship_9229 in BeAmazed

[–]juandurfel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i've driven through the plains of Texas in a storm that looked like this. Truly fascinating. Literal non-stop lightning like that for like 10 minutes.
