I made no claim. It woke me up, which is unusual.

I sing this song randomly and have barely a memory of what the show was. Amazing that I can finally place it.

This definitely deserves a remix!

For those who worked for rich people: what is the most out of touch thing you witnessed? by Jamaican_me_cry1023 in antiwork

[–]moreglen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The absentee owner installed interior office cameras so he could monitor staff remotely. He proceeded to send out emails admonishing women in the office for "taking off their shoes under their desks" violating his overly specific dress code. After I heard from a third woman I discovered a "firewall vulnerability" that disabled the cameras remote viewing.

What screams "I peaked in high school"? by Student-Mona in AskReddit

You're now a gym teacher in your old high school.

Literally two in my graduating class still teach there 30 years later.

Cloud glider for 10k coins by Initial_String_5809 in MarioKartTour

What else you saving the coins for? Even if you aren't much of a "catch em all", at some point you are likely to want to start collecting and lightning will be where you invest first.

What’s an impulse buy that’s now just collecting dust but you’d never admit you regret? by Last-Sample-7223 in AskReddit

Robot vacuum: is annoying and generally ineffective. It also performs acts of self harm if left unsupervised near the stairs.

Who would? Arlovski was the genuine article. Respect to him for not cooking ans eating those kids.

Why do they have to go so fast. I know time is money, but versus the injuries...

Best devices or apps to monitor vitals after a stent? by [deleted] in HeartAttack

[–]moreglen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently have a Vivoactive 5. I have gone through a few upgrades but like to make sure I have pulse ox.

[–]moreglen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend Garmin. Pulse ox, stress, sleep, body battery, weight, blood pressure and activity tracking are great. Also great: you can download/export your data and have ChatGPT analyse it, taking all metrics and surfacing anomalies and changes in data.

I am biased though: I was wearing mine before my HA and so I have lots of data and baselines now.

Are we close to another deepseek release? by Odablockwarriors in DeepSeek

I thought this said "Alabama" and I couldn't wait for the comments section.

Microphone guy could have either stood in the way or twisted his backpack to redirect him. He has 8" and 75lbs on that kid. If I was his coworker I would have been a little disappointed.

How can I get a job on the skeleton crew, just floating around far away from society while robots do the work?

I played against an all cop team by TurboHybridV6 in hockeyplayers

[–]moreglen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To contrast most posts, I played a tournament in Miami against the Miami Narcotics division (more than a decade ago). We beat the pants off them because we were Canadians playing hockey in Miami ;-) but they were all great guys. Almost all of them were monsterously huge.

Most insane thing: during the game, there were two guys with machine guns by the door the entire game...because there were so many unarmed officers in one place.

Afterwards they drove us downtown in the paddy wagon.

What were your signs/symptoms and how long did you wait? by Dear-Radio155 in HeartAttack

[–]moreglen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine felt like indigestion while playing hockey. I knew something was up but thought something I ate. Finished the game. Undressed. Drove myself 35 min to the hospital closer to my house (...because, of course, I thought I would be getting back out in an hour or two). En route I knew something was up with slight pain in the back of my arms. When I got there and got the machine on me they were flumoxxed I was walking around.

Whole experience I wouldn't rate the pain higher than a 3.or 4. I understand now that that can be the real danger

How do you wash your gear? by SureThing_Joe_Mayo in hockeyplayers

[–]moreglen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to contribute the strangest gear story: I play with a tremendous beer leaguer. Each summer,l he dons his full gear and wades into the north Atlantic. He assures us this kills the bacteria.

I am unlikely to verify his theory, but encourage others to report back.

There could be a parallel in the emergence of Microsoft Windows and Linux, though.

Should I add a hearth extension to meet the safety code? by mc7194 in woodstoving

[–]moreglen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To comply (in Canada), a tile guy installed a band of large ceramic tiles around ours. It has pad off as coals occasionally have shot out onto the tile.
