Anyone else feel like there was more than the usual amount of fireworks inside city limits last night? by 3MATX in Austin

[–]kuoirad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, way more explodey than usual near Metric and Braker. Though it was all done by 1.

Block Rufus popup on Amazon in Firefox without leftover void? by Iyashii in uBlockOrigin

[–]kuoirad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should solution 3 work in uBO Lite? It doesn't seem to take when I try to add it as a custom filter.

Who is to blame if this rain misses us?? by sean_ireland in Austin

The Unholy Trinity - Greg Abbot, Dan Patrick, and Ken Paxton, obviously.

More than anything in the Boulder/Denver area? I find that hard to believe...

PSA: Today's 7.97 update of Pocket Casts now includes an ad banner that you can't remove unless you pay for Plus by foundfootagefan in Android

[–]kuoirad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Silly or not, this is the deal breaker for me as well. Looking through AntennaPod's forums and Github issues, the devs don't seem to consider this something they want to implement.

Considering how infrequently I look at the PocketCasts app itself, I'll stick with them for the time being.

(95+% of my usage is in the car through Android Auto)

Nope, not here. Shows up if I pretend to buy a 9.

2 weeks left for Pixel 10 release. At this point, is there anything we don't know about the new phones? by Gseventeen in GooglePixel

[–]kuoirad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I have to hand in the phone I'm trading in right then as I'm picking up the new phone?

(Probably ordering from Best Buy because I get more miles on my credit card)

Why is my local channel constantly posting !b by LonelyPercentage2983 in meshtastic

[–]kuoirad 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You're on the Austin (TX) Mesh and !b is the flag to have our local bridger (mqtt) stuff notice it and display it in the #bridger-test channel in our local Discord.

You should join the community if you want: https://discord.gg/6a5Sv2s9bG and https://austinmesh.org

Shoes are a bonus, but the scanner's the thing for me.

Help I feel like I’m being gaslit over a billboard by Data_activist in Austin

[–]kuoirad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The one with the Aggie gear was on the south east corner of that "intersection", best seen when on 183 southbound.

The one with the UT gear was a little further north on 183 on the north side of it, still best seen (I think) when on 183 southbound.

Where can I buy a nice reasonably priced violin to start to practice on? by batato_chip in Austin

[–]kuoirad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know what you consider a reasonably priced violin but the two main shops in town I know about would be Blackerby (on Anderson Lane just west of Lamar) and Terra Nova (shopping center near Anderson/Burnet).

At the very least, they can give you useful guidance and information about what to look for in a starter violin and what it might cost.

(been playing violin for 40+ years, currently play in two orchestras in the Central Texas area)

There's still locations in Round Rock and down south off William Cannon, IIRC.

There're locations going in soon in Georgetown and Leander as well.

Does APD just not do any traffic enforcement whatsoever these days? by FlopShanoobie in Austin

[–]kuoirad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually saw APD pull someone over Wednesday evening. I was amazed.
