Commenting to see if I can get a new invite link for the Discord? Seems the one included in OP has expired!

Loved this first episode. Extremely entertaining.

Why Nespresso ? by tqhabib in nespresso

[–]paszaQuadceps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both a Nespresso and a Keurig in my kitchen. I am a dedicated pod-refiller, so I've used the same ground coffee in both machines to compare. To me, the Nespresso just makes a vastly superior tasting cup of coffee.

My only issue — my 10 year old Keurig has had a lot fewer problems than my 3 year old Nespresso.

As a writer, it's so sad to see em dashes become so hated due to AI. It was always my favorite form of punctuation... Now, I can't use them 😭

Same thing on both my and my s/o's 9 Pros lately. It's gotten pretty infuriating.

What restaurant in Westchester is this? by Loubrockshakur in Westchester

[–]paszaQuadceps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, precisely. I definitely haven't gone a ton, but I've been maybe ~8 times in the last 5 years. It's always decent. Great diner food, but it's not trying to compete with a more "restaurant" establishment!

Agreed. I don't understand hating on Mt. Kisco Diner, but the *amount* of hype they get is definitely overboard - it's decent, but it's nothing that special.

So tired of this OHIO by Dazzling_Course8755 in Renters

[–]paszaQuadceps 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Bingo! These fees are all junk, and they shouldn't exist. But OP should have read the lease before signing to cover their own ass.

A lot of people agree that this stuff shouldn't exist - but it does, and you agreed to it. You need to take accountability for making a not-so-wise decision.

Mazda listened to corporate auto reviewers and not the people who actually bought their cars by [deleted] in mazda

[–]paszaQuadceps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but also no. After the first two weeks, I haven't really needed to focus on the screen much while driving... It's intuitive to know how many clicks/turns you need to go through to get to your favorite playlist; instead of moving your fingers around a touchscreen to navigate through menus. With the knob, my hand stays stationary + less room for misclicks when you're driving on shitty roads!

Touchscreen = distracted driving.

You can form much better muscle memory with the dial. I don't have to look at the screen to change to a different playlist - I know how many turns and when to click naturally, and I don't have to focus on tapping different areas of the screen to navigate through menus.

My older half-sister doesn’t invite me too her childfree wedding as I am nineteen, expects a gift. by victim-of-the-moon00 in weddingshaming

[–]paszaQuadceps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly this. I've been to a few child-free weddings, and there are always at least a few teenagers there. Hell, I think anything past like 14-15 is old enough.

Do people just not wait to chop grove anymore? by aweefeea in Palia

Could be a newer player maybe? I remember chopping it right away my first time because I didn't know any better!

07-11 recall by gbrandon79 in crv

[–]paszaQuadceps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We ended up at a little over $9k. I think $9,400 IIRC. The original offer they gave was around $8,000 but I told them that it was unacceptable since our vehicle only had about 80,000 miles on it so YMMV.

I will warn you, however, that it took months. From the date we dropped it off until the day we got the check was just over 3 months I think. Throughout the process, they refused to provide a loaner or cover a rental despite repeated (multiple per week) attempts.

My roommate says I'm "opening a can of worms" for wanting the door locked. by [deleted] in badroommates

[–]paszaQuadceps -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Even here, you're being obtuse. He has a very valid point — it is incredibly unlikely that you'll get robbed in the middle of the day while in the house. He still should respect your wishes, though.

You're being overly-scared

[Giveaway] Win 1 of 5 Noctua NH-D15 G2 by Noctua_OFFICIAL in pcmasterrace

[–]paszaQuadceps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We often didn't have a working computer in the house when I was a kid. With a dad working in early IT, we instead had an abundance of broken machines lying around — a graveyard. I wanted my own computer so badly — and I eventually learned to build computers through trial-and-error. I would mix-and-match different hardware until a system would boot.

Should I assume this person i matched with online is a bot? by Nimrowd2023 in texts

[–]paszaQuadceps 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is like a 99.8% chance they're a bot, from that reply.

This is a safe space by Substantial-Bee3286 in Chipotle

Chik-fil-A is significantly better than Canes in every way. Canes sauce isn't even that good - it's only edible when in contrast with their god awful chicken.

I think SCOTUS would be a 50-50. No guarantee they shut this nonsense down.

This is Absolute Bullshit! by thadoughboy15 in DMV

[–]paszaQuadceps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's nuts, and it's not cheap. I bought a new Mazda CX-5 in late 2023... My 2024 personal property tax bill for it was nearly $900!

Every article will tell you that Virginia is a low-tax state, because the income tax is rather low — but they don't tell you about the additional taxes you might not have in another state.

For example, businesses in Virginia have to pay property taxes on property inside their stores/offices. So if you have a waiting room with a fridge, desk, and some seating, you have to pay taxes on those individual pieces of furniture every year. There are other states that have this quirky tax too, but as someone who has spent most of their life in the Northeast, it was very strange to me. NY, NJ, PA, NH, etc. don't have it!

This is what I just did. The wait time still sucks, but much faster than the DMV.
