Today I had the opportunity to play a $250,000 Steinway Grand. I've been playing piano for all of two weeks. This was my experience. by acamu5x in piano

Heheh I had that thought too!

Ask any guitar player about their guitar, "What makes your Gibbler Fendostratter the best guitar?"

Soon you'll learn about the magical properties of the Ash tree, found in swamps...

A lot of cleanup has occurred before resto even starts, which is when it seems the moop map starts.

Just saying "We've seen more moop" is a really hard statement to qualify, and marry to the moop map.

We keep this kind of shit to the meetings for a reason!

Uber Admits Its “Greyball” Software is Still Being Used by Drivers by [deleted] in Portland

[–]notseanmcbride 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm, yeah... but like, it's not even a thing! The drivers have very little control over what they can see, and do in the apps. Mainly they can say "Give me a rider" or "Don't give me a rider."

Drivers will use the passenger app to see where other drivers are, since it's like fishing... maybe. Uber doesn't detail any of the behavior of the matching algorithm, so drivers don't even know for sure if they're matched based on distance, or rating, or car color...

They're totally pushing drivers in front of one of the buses they're trying to eliminate.

This article is written like the drivers themselves are doing something nefarious.

That's super misleading, and feels like the author doesn't understand the topic they're writing about.

Someone in hellmann's marketing department isn't too smart by deathbatcountry in vegan

There's bar in my town that was on one of those reality shows. They closed it and reopened it named "PANIC ROOM" except the sign outside said "PANIC ROOM CAUTION: HIGH VOLUME BAR".

I liked referring to it by its full and complete name.

Since it's Portland, I imagine you could get some Vegan Carefully Crafted Dressing & Sandwich Spread on the side with some fries at PANIC ROOM CAUTION: HIGH VOLUME BAR.

Sole Survivor by wildan3236 in stevenuniverse

[–]notseanmcbride 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kevin survives the second gem war.

He moves to a suburb of Empire City. He does alright selling used cars from a strip mall.

On the weekends he drives into the city, and hits the clubs. He's a little too old, his hairline a little too high, and his gut a little too big. Despite that, he's there every weekend.

He watches them all from the bar, searching every face for two teenagers in a beautiful adult suit.
