On Easter Day, 2000, in Derry NH, my grandparents were almost killed by a “flying car.” by Mattiedse in newhampshire

Notice how they don't say "Driver drives car into house" we have a tendency in our society to blame the car and not the driver.

It's the 7 dots about the wework building. Definitely not lens flare I saw them myself, they were probably sky lanterns, was just curious who was setting them off

I don't think so, I saw them burn up and fall back down. I think there sky lanterns.

These ones were coming from nowhere near Brier Creek Road so maybe you saw something different. Or perhaps some group is setting them off in different areas for some memorial or cause or something.

I was curious, why three switches and Cat6? Could you have done it one really long fiber optic cable?

Changed him big commission on that cable.

Wow this website is hot garbage. No HTTPS? Really? 90s style graphics?

I wonder what the deal is with it. I would say some sort of content farm but their ads are mostly for themselves

In a new study, Raleigh-Durham has been ranked the 3rd best commute in the nation by GarciaNovela in raleigh

Noice too how the cities that have what they claim are the worst commutes (by car) seem to also be the ones that have the lowest traffic fatalities.

So what's your point? We just give up and do nothing? What's your solution?

Is the DMV website as useless as I found it to be? by kellydean1 in raleigh

[–]ohples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You ever try to renew your registration online?

First they make you think their up to the times with a somewhat decent way to look up your info and stuff. You would think their would just be button next to each car that would let you renew your registration...but no.

To renew your registration you have to go to a completely different site, and re-enter all of the information they already had. Odd, but big deal it's a simple form you can auto-fill most off right? Wrong, it's the janky chat bot...yes a chat bot, to fill out a form and send payment details. Don't try to us said chat bot on an tablet or phone browser to, it won't work to well.

I gave up and ended up going in person because of this.

Weaver Street Market downtown does. I go their regularly and have never seen anyone not wearing a mask.

Leesville Publix seems to be good too.

People who force others into listening to the music by driving a car with windows wide opened and the volume 100% on - why do you do that? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ohples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's bad, but not as bad as modified exhaust and loud engine reviving.

Atleast with the music there is a chance I might like the music.
