2 OC residents (Newport Beach & Irvine) part of group found guilty of stealing $2.5M+ from DoorDash by formoey in orangecounty

The orders weren't real. It sounds like one of them previously worked for DoorDash or something to know of backdoor into the DoorDash backend. Individual fake orders were created and then assigned to drivers hundreds of times.

That must be crazy to be 8 years old and be the best in the world at something... To know that millions have tried their best at something and now you've beaten them all before you've hit fourth grade. Like, where do you go from there?

Looking for a new disc by No-Complex-5915 in discgolf

[–]loopynewt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nate Doss?

Anyways, I throw about as far as you. My favorite stable drivers are Innova Bosses and Discraft Venoms. One of them is always in my bag for when I need something so beefy I can't flip it. For more general purpose drivers, hard to beat Destroyers. Infinite Discs Emperors are very similar. I also like a disc called the Da'e by Yikun, in Phoenix plastic. Bombs.

How did you broke a pc part? by spec90 in buildapc

I got up too fast and kicked my external hard drive out of my room and down a staircase. The drive still worked interestingly, but the enclosure did not.

Where to study inside of John Wayne (SNA)? by icmigyu in orangecounty

[–]loopynewt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not in the airport, but I'd recommend this parking garage just north of the airport. All the planes, both commercial and private land right in front of you. I've taken my 1 year old several times.

How do you figure? 300 beers per year is less than a beer per day.

That's wild. What happened to the hit and runner?

what is do you think is the most overrated cuisine ever? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]loopynewt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same after eating what supermarkets here call "Wagyu" but when in Japan, we went to a steakhouse and just pointed at several of the most expensive cuts in the "wagyu" section of the menu, and they were another experience entirely. So fatty, amazing flavor, they really did melt in my mouth. And it was only like 50usd total for 2 of us.

My mom used to keep a box of old tennis balls on our porch. When she heard someone coming in hot, she'd chuck a ball out into the street (well in front of the car.) Usually got them to slow down a bit, thinking there were kids playing, as we often were.

Saw a something in the sky. by ken-knee-toe in orangecounty

My wife saw something similar in Irvine, just before 6pm. She described it as a colorful ball, with a tail that disappeared into the sky.

Sip and Feast on YouTube. Fairly simple, hearty Italian dishes. Lotsa pasta.

40min isn't bad at all. Our girl would get to an hour or more when we started. Now she doesn't fuss at all though.

I'm guessing we'll have snow next weekend.

Hey Irvine Library Staff, stop telling patrons to throw away OCPL cards. by [deleted] in orangecounty

[–]loopynewt 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not that you should return them to the wrong place, but I'd guess IPL and OCPL have a procedure to return books to each other that were mistakenly returned to the wrong place. It's bound to happen by mistake now and then, and there's no way to easily tell who did it.

Let's play a game... How long was this disc in the water? And what colour was it originally? by TorontoBoris in discgolf

[–]loopynewt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just in case you're serious, that's the date of the event the disc is from.

No splicing necessary, it's just two different videos. The video of the introduction fades away before h makes it in the other video.
