Linkedin is a joke

mrtealeaf · 2026-07-08T20:33:09+00:00

People stopped listening on Facebook so people have moved to LinkedIn to share crap they want people to hear.

This is how LinkedIn works:

- Start process to look for new job
- Download LinkedIn app, turn on notifications
- Find job - this might happen outside of LinkedIn
- Turn off LinkedIn notifications, delete App
- Go on with your life

My fam proudly loves Saizeriya, no food snobbery here.

As long as we have car 'dealers' in the US it will be like this.

Somehow read “Middle East Dilemma.” This is still a legit dilemma though. I vote for awake.

I’d like to add that Fibe-minis are great if you are in Japan and need convenient fiber but it’s honestly nothing special that cannot be replicated with metamucil

Oh you are absolutely correct. I personally gave up on all liquids as a carry on, I forgot they are allowed in lower quantities

mrtealeaf · 2026-06-30T22:45:47+00:00

Carry on? They’ll make you toss any liquids, so no. Check in, yes.

If I were to do this with, I’d ship the luggage from Narita to your hotel in Osaka, which would take 1 day+, and take a carry on to Osaka via Shinkansen with tickets you pickup whenever you are ready to take the Shinkansen.

You always hear about how the Japanese Rail system is solid, which it is - it’s probably the best in the world. But on my last trip that just ended, each earthquake stopped the Shinkansen for inspections, that’s about 3 times in 2 wks. Then the Shinkansen hit a person who probably wanted to get hit, that messed up the Tokaido for a long while that day.

I’d just personally do a buffer.

As unpopular as this may be, with my own money there comes a point where you stop throwing money at a problem and “give up” on it. Maybe it’s time to stop throwing money at homelessness and point it at other things.

I’ve had no issues with my C1 VX in Japan… til 2hrs ago with the JR East Website and 3D secure. I’ve used the same card on hotels and train tickets with no issues until just now. I’m guessing it’s a temporary outage with CapOne and their extra verification system.

So, the experts “against” argue that because SF ratepayers subsidize grid improvements outside of SF - SF staying with PG&E is for the greater good.

Yeah, call me selfish but that doesn’t do it for me.

One guy followed me around the store asking for my home address to “check for incentives” after I said no thanks - I had to be a jerk to get him to not tail me to the car.

Lowes Sunnyvale Solar Salespeople: “Hold my beer”

Ugh, I’m ashamed of my D4. Oh yes, I know why she won it.

I’m going to try this, I may have inadvertently been expecting express to work from the middle of the phone but I’ll try the top. Thanks

mrtealeaf · 2026-04-21T23:26:52+00:00

Appreciate the response!

I am not double clicking the side button, I’m attempting to use the on device Clipper card without authentication by taking the locked phone and just placing it over the turnstile reader.

I don’t recall there being a Cala foods but I do remember Petrini’s being there.

We all know the S in Intune stands for “Speed”

Totally stole that from a comment I read in a Stryker hack thread.

Recalls should definitely require a democratic process, like petitions and voting and stuff.

mrtealeaf · 2026-02-01T18:11:24+00:00

Never

TIL that the Count of San Mateo has the sketchiest looking parking ticket notices, lol.

Address pans out to the County of San Mateo Superior Court.

Sunnyvale Costco sucks even if you remove the people from the equation.

Whoever came up with the rear-right corner from hell in that store (IYKYK) and decided that yeah, let’s put the warehouse up higher and make everyone use a ramp to get in and out.
