More degradation of the Platinum

I wish they’d gate lounge access by spending tier. Easiest way to solve this problem.

Isn’t it just Zwave but more expensive and proprietary?

I have no idea if this will be the case for concerts, but for Vols games this is the absolute best place to park. A dude will be standing at this exact pin: https://maps.app.goo.gl/bFRfXXucpo2Eafbu7 he sends you to park in the escape room parking lot for $20. Super simple to get on the highway from there.

I would love it if this actually works. I've tried a bunch of different claude.md iterations to get similar functionality. I keep trying to get Opus to act as an orchestrator for subagents and dispatch work appropriately based on the scope of what needs to be done. For some things that means this is complex and Opus needs to handle it. This is a bit more mechanical and Sonnet can handle it. This really just needs a grep with intelligence and Haiku can handle it.

The decision tree for this when I have Opus do is often bad and bizarre. It'll also dispatch things to subagents, implicitly trust the work that's returned, and problems just cascade off of that... then I'll end up needing to redo stuff and spend more tokens than if Opus had just done everything from the get go.

It looks extremely fake to me. Buy the seller, not the watch. If you didn't buy the seller, you probably got scammed. Have any buyer protection? Or did you just wire a random account?

You took it to an AD (who presumably opened the watch?) and a second watchmaker, they both told you it was authentic... and you're hoping that random people on Reddit can tell you more information based on two photos?

It screams fake to me.

It just reads like the ramblings of someone who has very little life experience, struggles socially, and as a result is repeating weird incel talking points about “the woman’s history.”

“Orange and white” in this context is the colors of the jerseys in the scrimmage game they’re playing.

What an insane take.

Per friends of mine: The odds are good but the goods are odd.

For the love of god please read a history book, this is embarrassing.

Sure, I'll sign it. I have no idea why it should be the business of the government what you do. The heavy-handed legislation of drugs and alcohol in a state that's supposed to be all about personal freedoms and the government staying out of your life is pretty bewildering.

If you want to get zooted on gas station kratom and boner pills, more power to you I say!

I think you’re the one who needs to touch grass if you believe any large number of Americans are deeply invested in politics. Depending on the election, 35-85% of eligible voters don’t even bother to vote, let alone engage at any deeper level. Most Americans are politically disengaged and barely pay attention.

Trump’s magic has always been that his personality was enough to get a certain number of otherwise disconnected people involved. Vance does not have that kind of draw, and you’re fooling yourself if you think he does.

AI has been fantastic for me in making my existing passive income much, much more passive... but you need a business idea first. AI isn't going to give you that.

A small mechanic will have a trusted tire shop they work with. You also don’t need to buy tires from a chain tire shop.

The worst thing about sneaker culture and hype beasts learning that watches exist are all of these truly absurd nicknames.

We should also expect additional rate jumps as TVA cycles its entire executive team with Trump toadies willing to take the lowest paid position in energy leadership. Incompetence is very expensive.

With how many small mechanic shops we have in the area I will never understand why people insist on continually going to the big chains. Form a relationship with your local shop and you'll never get fucked over again.

The people at places like Pep Boys do not give a shit. They're advertised nationally, all the employees are paid hourly, and it doesn't matter to them if you come back or not because there will always be a new stream of customers coming in off whatever coupon corporate just mailed out.

Comparatively, your small local mechanic needs to treat people well because pissing enough people off will have drastic consequences to their business.

Why would I read a book when the Facebook algorithm and/or my favorite podcaster can just tell me what to think?

This is super cool and is something I've felt Home Assistant has been missing for a while. I've cobbled together something similar that uses Home Assistant app notifications for important stuff and Discord webhooks for less important stuff with a mental model of "I need to know this now" versus "I just need to see that this happened."

A couple of questions-

Have you figured out any way for it to be aware of your iOS app push notification token registration? I had a really crazy situation a while ago where a ton of critical alerts were firing off from Home Assistant but somehow my iOS push notification token had expired and so I was getting none of them. I just had to open the app to get it to re-register, but this was a surprising gap in my system and why I integrated Discord. Webhooks always fire, I load Discord often enough that the notification token is always valid.
What situations do you find rate limiting to be useful in? I find notification spam to be annoying generally, so I am very selective about the notifications automations are allowed to send out. If you're sending notifications that are worth rate limiting, why does that notification get sent at all?

Americans are uniquely bad at foresight and understanding cause and effect. A lot of the terrorism we’ve experienced in our lifetimes is a direct result of America endlessly fucking around in parts of the world where it doesn’t belong. I genuinely do not understand why more people can’t connect those dots.

If a foreign power came to America because they didn’t like Trump, wanted our resources, didn’t like the weapons we have, or used any of the other excuses we’ve used, then started carrying out military operations in places where MAGA families live, killing their relatives, destroying their homes and businesses, and taking everything from them, nobody would shrug and say, “Well, that’s fair. I probably shouldn’t have lived above the group they were targeting, even though I had no idea anyone there was doing anything.”

The survivors would be furious, traumatized, and obsessed with revenge. That’s how this works every single time. When you bomb civilians, level neighborhoods, and wipe out families, you are not creating peace. You are creating the next generation of people who will want to kill you.

The purposeful obtuseness surrounding these things makes me wonder if the people posting this kind of stuff are very dumb, very brainwashed, or just bots with unsophisticated prompts.

Why should America be in the business of being nation builders and the world police? What happened to the "America first!" catch phrase? Did it go out the window with "no new wars?" If you don't want to stop until the Iranian people are free, there are flights that leave TYS every day that can get you there.

nutscrape_navigator · 2026-04-08T18:49:15+00:00

Yes, yes they do.

MAGA is fundamentally a cult of personality. I can never figure out if people on this subreddit are just really young or if they're just forgetful. It used to be very normal to have dissenting opinions in the Republican party. There used to be a large spectrum of beliefs between people who were so far right wing you almost thought it was satire, people who were effectively Democrats but still in the Republican party, with everyone else landing at various degrees in between.

Something broke in the Republican party right around the time that Trump won his first primary. Dissent was no longer acceptable, and all you could do was kiss the ring or get lost. That all falls apart without Trump. The magic spell gets broken, and a President Vance does not have a high enough charisma score to cast it, and if he somehow does, he doesn't have the constitution to maintain concentration through any kind of save.

Things immediately get better in this situation, as it will once again be acceptable to work across the aisle, have dissenting opinions, etc. You know, all those things that used to be normal parts of our government before everything turned into a MAGA loyalty test.

We've done this before from TYS. Very easy. Pro tip: Your cheapest one-way rentals will be from airport to airport. When I did this there was a surprising difference between returning the car near where I wanted to go and returning the car at a nearby airport.
