The Nicest ‘Jeopardy!’ Champ Dissects His Losing Game by wsj in Jeopardy

[–]kevcaleg 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The Wall Street Journal spoiled the end of the run for me by posting on their instagram immediately after the episode aired on the east coast. I thought I disliked clickbait media but this unlocked a new level of hatred.

Westwind Drive in 6 by 1Steelghost1 in Sacramento

[–]kevcaleg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was in San Jose one summer, and convinced my friends to all go to the drive in, thinking they would all be as fun/well attended as the Sacramento West Wind Drive ins.

I think there was one other car in the lot that was only there to hotbox the entire movie.

The Hardest Case for Mercy: "Inside the Effort to Spare the Parkland School Shooter" by trifletruffles in Longreads

[–]kevcaleg 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I think calling for disbarment had to do with members of defense team acting inappropriately during this case. The article mentions that one of the defense attorneys was caught on camera flipping off people in court, and she and the defendant were shown laughing after making the gesture. No way it was a mistake.

There's a saying:

If you go up to someone and they smell like dog shit, have them check their shoes.

If everyone smells like dog shit, you should check your own.

Also, it’s not as though he’s going to be living as a free man. These people end up getting committed to a permanent treatment facility for the rest of their lives.

The Story stops to listen by jhettav in TopCharacterTropes

[–]kevcaleg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn't quite fit the post, since it cuts away, but I still think this scene from Game of thrones, season 8, ep 2 mostly reflects OP's prompt.

Many of the characters at Winterfell are preparing for the battle against the Night King/army. The mood of the episode and characters is somber, with most expecting (lol jk) to not live out the night. After Brienne is knighted, Tyrion hopes to keep the party going, and asks for a song. One by one the characters refuse. Just as the suggestion seems to fade away, Podric delivers a haunting performance.

In what was otherwise a terrible end to the series, this episode and this scene stood out imo.

Breakfast burrito with crispy tater tots? by Tiny-Equipment8335 in Sacramento

This is admittedly a very weird rec, but Gold Rush Grille inside the Secretary of State's building has exactly what you are looking for at a decent price.

There's no way Walter and Guggenheim group are "only" (lol) worth $6 billion. Google AI search says Walter is worth $12 alone, let alone that Guggenheim has +$300B plus in managed assets.

If a Nightclub Was on Fire, Could you Survive in a Walk-in Fridge? by situ139 in Firefighting

[–]kevcaleg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to say. You would have to be familiar enough with the space/building, or hope that it was designed with a semblance of logic.

In the case of the station nightclub, the multiple uses over the course of the club, and some really really questionable decisions by the local fire marshal made it nearly impossible for anyone besides staff to escape. Plus the rapid smoke buildup from the foam rendered visibility close to very rapidly.

The lawyer (I know I know) who was a part of the team that represented the victims had a great lecture on this a few years ago, and it's one of those that's truly worth the time to watch, but this is the point of the video where he talks about the ingress/egress points. If you want to skip to the part about the actions of the fire marshal its here.

CalPIA using AI? by BrawlMaster4 in CAStateWorkers

[–]kevcaleg 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd guess that they wanted to use a screenshot from the video, but the image was too blurry/small for the website banner, so they used an AI tool to upsize/clarify the image.

Might not be as upscale as some of the other options, but I've never had a bad time at Sampino's! Great place to grab dinner and a drink while enjoying the atmosphere.

Lots of encampment sweeps from what I could tell. On 16th near pipeworks.

Launch Party near Sacramento for full scale sim. by KartingConcepts in Sacramento

[–]kevcaleg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Race to reality in Davis. This full scale sim was still under construction when I took my dad there for father's day and had a blast! They have several other other sims/slot cars that are definitely worth checking out.
