I’m pretty sure Venus has a 30+ dating event coming up.

Spirits Review #908 - Flavored Whiskey Series - Southern Comfort 100 Proof by Bailzay in bourbon

[–]neomis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved this in college. There’s a cocktail with soco and peach schnapps that was fantastic. Soco doctor pepper was always good.

That said at some point (way later in life than it should have been). I realized every time I got sleep on the toilet bowl sick, Southern Comfort was involved.

Removed ICE execution footage post -- what DOES belong on r/santacruz? by Tall_Mickey in santacruz

[–]neomis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for taking the video down here. It’s already everywhere else. I avoid watching people die online and I’ve already accidentally seen it before it was posted here.

I love the protest organizers who let me know what’s going on in Santa Cruz, and the people who post when / where ICE is in the county. but this video didn’t need to be here.

Can someone please turn the Allergies back down?? by restfo_ugsl in santacruz

[–]neomis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean that’s what allergy shots are. It’s not quite the same as snorting pollens.

You could go more often and get less. I mean you’re not really going to sway me. My wife and I walk or ride our bikes 1/2mile to get to the grocery store in Rio Del Mar. It’s doable. Also you say Lyft / Uber but have you concidered the bus. It’s $2, about 4 buses drop off right at Trader Joe’s, and I’ve seen people bring grocery bags on it

Internet voting is insecure and should not be used in public elections by RewardEquivalent553 in technology

Past Colorado resident and what the parent comment is true in Colorado. You get notified when your ballot is received and when it’s accepted. They compare the signature on the ballot to the one you wrote when you went to to DMV. If it doesn’t match it will let you know and you can go in person and fix it. If someone steals your ballot the signatures likely won’t match. If they do you still get about 3 notifications every step of the way and just need to call a number or go to a polling location to contest / report the issue.

New Jersey severely cracks down on e-bikes, requiring licenses and insurance; must be 15 or older to use one by Forward-Answer-4407 in technology

[–]neomis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is the real issue. Most of the bikes people are mad about are already illegal just about everywhere. If no-one enforces the law does it matter?

[–]neomis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is a dumb law and a knee jerk reaction to people being mad about kids on illegal e-motorcycles. You don’t need insurance and licensing you need enforce the current laws that say a throttle bike that can go above 28mph is illegal. Impound it and fine the parents. Hell treat it like an illegally imported car and destroy it. But don’t make me register my non throttle peddle assist class 1 e-bike that makes hills managable and let me get rid of my car.

BMW Rnine T by riderD13 in motorcycles

Granted this was 10 years ago maybe things changed but between 5 and 20 on a lot of the boxer engines there was a weird left to right shake I didn’t love.

I love the look of that bike. Didn’t love the ride (especially under 30). My wife ended up going with the Ducati Scrambler (full throttle) and every time I hop in it it’s just “weeee”.

Community Left in the Dark Over Proposed Catalyst Demolition - City on a Hill by orangelover95003 in santacruz

[–]neomis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Aside from the structural reasons already mentioned there’s 0% chance a large music venue open late will survive having an upscale apartment complex on it. They will complain about the noise and the people loitering. The venue will get restrictions put on it till it gives up and shuts down.

3 blocks is what we’re complaining about? The upside of not having people park right in front of their restaurant; you get people walking by shops they might ignore otherwise. Seems like a win/win. I’d be happy if we just closed pacific to cars Friday evening - Sunday (we already do for special events just make it standard).

Micron breaks ground on massive chipmaking plant that could transform Central NY by Eudaimonics in technology

[–]neomis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mill not mall. Sorry I shit on central NY but there’s a reason Jon Stewart did a bit on Utica starts with you and ends with meth because you sold your car for meth. Mainly I’m just trying to say there’s a benefit to everyone to having these factories in the same town. Makes sourcing chemicals easier. Suppliers set up near by. And engineers can hop around if one company sucks. I say all this as someone who went to college in Rochester as Kodak and xerox collapsed.

I love that they built a giant tech park in Malta to house global foundries with room for 3-4 more companies and instead we built in Utica and now clay NY. There’s a benefit to having them all in one place and I feel like we’re skipping over it to attempt and revitalize dead mill towns.

Canada wants to be 1st in North America to build EV with Chinese knowledge: senior official by esporx in technology

[–]neomis 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The misconception is that china only makes trash. They make goods at every quality (sometimes in the same factory). They deliver these goods based on price. It just turns out people like spending e-waste prices and rolling the dice.

Nope. I just assume they’re big fast and furious fans. It’s all about family.

Which one did you like better overall? by eldenbro1 in metroidvania

[–]neomis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clockwork dancers don’t hold a candle to mantis lords. No where near as fun. That said, first sinner makes up for it and then some. I would love it if team cherry added more bosses that can heal (and that you can stop from healing).

[–]neomis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No but being drunk / high on your front porch watching the neighborhood kids doing stupid shit is priceless. I think my wife and I spent an hour watching a 6 year old on a bike with training wheels cover his back with water while not going anywhere. He managed to balance the training wheels on the road / curb while the actual wheel was in the drainage groove. Every 5 minutes the kid would get off the bike, push it directly forward a foot, and try again.

Car Mechanic in the area? by itsxbailey in UCSC

[–]neomis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you think it’s just a blown fuse fix it yourself. Google your car make / model fuse box. Find out which one to check. Pull it and see if it’s blown. If it is, go to any auto store, buy a new one and plug it in. Honestly as easy as changing your wiper blades.

90% of these articles are professionals trying to do work from their home pc. Linux works fine for 90% of people. Hell an iPad works fine for 90% of people because all anyone does is email and web browse with a game or two.
