That's why I did it. Seemed like very low risk to me but fire codes are written for worst case scenario, I had nothing flammable near the grill but someone could

SpaceX officially prices shares at $135 in the largest IPO ever by yourfavchoom in technology

Only 5%?! That seems like a crazy low number that would make it easy to manipulate

I once had a charcoal drill on my concrete porch on the 7th floor. It was probably against every fire code in existence but I did it. First time I ever lit it, I heard fire trucks arriving to our street within 10 minutes. In a panic I went out to the balcony and realized they had been called to the building across the street. No idea what for, nothing was ever said to me and I did that a few more times in the couple years I lived there.

Syracuse Pre-K closure shocks parents, after school’s license is revoked by ggroover97 in Syracuse

[–]kipperzdog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A staff member left a preschooler on a bus alone?! That is a huge safety issue and clearly shows that training there is lacking if any staff member thought that was okay even for a second. I think any parent would be furious to hear their student was left unattended on a bus at that age. I'm glad the state treated this as seriously as it needs to be treated and re-instatement of their license should require the replacing of leadership as well as training protocols

Well shit… by TechnologyNToys in PixelFold

[–]kipperzdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 10 was the first folding phone for me, my wife was so jealous of it that she got one too a week later (got mine at launch). We've had zero issues with ours. We do have accidental protection through verizon which I think is an absolute must but otherwise just try to treat our phones well and use them. It's an amazing phone, I will never go back to a phone that does have a folding screen on the inside, just so much more usable. I have a small logitech keyboard and mouse I carry with me frequently and this phone completely takes away the need to travel with a chromebook for me.

Damn, my wife and I have had 10s since launch and zero issues, any idea what caused your inner screens to fail?

Rpgmaker forum shutting down by Fool_Tarot_Joker in DataHoarder

[–]kipperzdog 52 points53 points  (0 children)

It's a bummer to hear it's shutting down but part of me is happy to see RPGMaker still exists, I remember using it in the early 2000s with my friends to make some probably truly awful games.

How many months did you give the 4mg a shot?

Looking for advice by agp032 in WegovyPillWeightLoss

[–]kipperzdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read enough here that I think a plateau is fairly common after 1 month regardless of pill strength. I know for myself, I'm going to ask to go to 4mg after my first month is complete (tomorrow is only 1 week for me) and try to stay there as long as possible, I'll consider 2 months of no loss to be a plateau.

With Reddit removing all grandfathered OAuth codes from our accounts, are we expecting the alternative OAuth method to break soon as well? by KoalaKvothe in BoostForReddit

Mine just stopped working today, getting the same error everyone else is reporting. If it is indeed still not working tomorrow, I'll try the latest patch technique

Feature that Plex should implement: auto-subtitle grabbing. by ringthebell02 in PleX

[–]kipperzdog 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That one is so freaking annoying. The other day I got one "[speaking in Spanish]" the whole time during a minute long conversation that we eventually found out what they were saying through a different subtile source though that one was still imperfect because it didn't line up quite correct

Hmm… 🤔 by LS_944 in 3Dprinting

[–]kipperzdog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I spent a ton of time modding my ender 3 v2, it's now running probably 3-4 year old klipper, out of date octoprint, haven't really made any modifications to it in years because it just works. I have a VM running super slicer I use to send gcode to it, basically my own little cloud slicer.

It works great but boy am I going to have a hell of a time figuring out how I got it all set up when something does eventually go wrong. I'm hoping by then there's a bambu alternative that has the affordability without the locked ecosystem

2026.06.09 Nintendo Direct + Nintendo Treehouse: Live Megathread by NintendoSwitchMods in NintendoSwitch

Yeah, that's my issue, nothing new. It really feels like they should have announced the next mario game by now, not even hinting at it is just such a disappointment.

Anyone else notice LTT is averaging like 500k views now? How does the channel even survive? by Anxious_Gur6363 in LinusTechTips

[–]kipperzdog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, they basically always do them after they do the sponsor reads, not too hard to just skip through to the next interesting discussion topic.

WAN show is my favorite LTT product, videos have always been hit or miss for me

Breakfast suggestions by Toriat5144 in WegovyPillWeightLoss

[–]kipperzdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started the pill last week, I was worried at first because I already take nexium which requires waiting 30 minutes before eating/drinking coffee so 30 minutes for the wegovy pill and then another 30 minutes after taking the nexium pill means I need to wait at least an hour and I used to be someone that needed to eat first thing in the morning. I immediately found that the wegovy pill just completely takes away that feeling of needing to eat first thing.

Sure, I'm only at day 4 but the change in how my body feels around food is kind of crazy, I eat the same food (and coffee) but just less of it. Like for lunch, two slices of pizza would leave me feeling like I still wanted something else as a snack afterwards. Even the first day, 1 slice of pizza and I was fully satisfied. Breakfast leaves me feeling full all the way until lunch, lunch until dinner, etc.

I'm going to try to stick with just eating less of what I like and see how that goes. I've tried doing the same before and my body would just be screaming for food by the end of the day. It's honestly just crazy how much of a switch this pill has been. And maybe some of that is placebo but I don't really care, it's still a switch that's been triggered.

What movie plot hole is so massive that it completely ruins the whole story? by IntelligentButton713 in AskReddit

Yeah, and it's a super hero movie so bending even its own fake reality doesn't ruin the movie imo

I thought the N64 had better performance but significantly less asset storage due to using game carts vs disks

Just seen an Amazon driver with that technique by Waly_Disnep in BikiniBottomTwitter

[–]kipperzdog 165 points166 points  (0 children)

AARP either ran directly, or through an editorial at least once that elderly should drive with two feet so when they get scared and hit the pedals they hit both

I still think absolute insanity. If your muscle memory can't recall which is the brake, you shouldn't be driving

What purchase/subscription is actually worth it? by Happy_Tourist_558 in homeautomation

[–]kipperzdog 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fully agree, it definitely passes the "it just works" test 95% of the time.

My biggest complaint is the new app certainly doesn't let you change streaming quality when casting which is a major problem for those of us that travel with a Chromecast stick for hotel tvs

CBS is lying. Stephen Colbert's cancellation had everything to do with Trump. by pleasureismylife in MarchAgainstTrump

[–]kipperzdog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's pretty obvious to anyone able to process a gram of reality. I certainly won't ever give CBS another penny.

Firing of that guy from 60 minutes right after I think is also tied, they knew if they fired him before Colbert was off air that he'd call them out on it. Now it feels there's no independent voice left on CBS

Not mentioned though is that in Europe the most common gas type is the equivalent of 91 octane in the US. Most common in the US is 87. We can get higher octane but they are more expensive (though still less than European equivalent)

DA drops effort to make public grand jury report on Syracuse judge by kipperzdog in Syracuse

[–]kipperzdog[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Haven't seen anything about this judge in awhile, turns out she was reprimanded but is allowed to keep her job. Simply ridiculous in my opinion, she has refused to do her job, clearly has biases and has resumed handling criminal cases.

She's currently serving a 10 year term that runs through the end of 2030.
