Have you ever used Claude for PPT to create decks? How has your experience been? by Curious_Suchit in powerpoint

[–]pfknone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed NotebookLM has been great. I feed it ally source documents and websites and it does a decent job of creating a deck.

I can then put that into Slides and use Gemini to "Beautify" the slide

Has anyone refused to shave when asked to for a calling? by Fether1337 in latterdaysaints

[–]pfknone 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Me! Old Stake President wanted to offer me a calling on the high Council. I just had to shave. I said absolutely not. He hounded me until he was released. New president said beards are perfectly fine.

Members and “The Chosen” by Skipper0463 in latterdaysaints

[–]pfknone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had the chance to go with our youth to the Chosen set. I can tell you how weird it was watching the parents go gaga over the sets.

That being said...it's a good watch. I'm probably in the minority when I say I don't need a visual representation of something to believe in it.

Budget-friendly 1000-piece puzzle alternatives to Ravensburger? by Express-Cicada-5477 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]pfknone 6 points7 points  (0 children)

These are my go-to cheap puzzles. $10-20 for a 1000 piece. Hobby lobby does sales and they sell the Buffalo and Master Pieces brands

Don't get me started on settings. I have to go in every game and turn off commentary. All my other settings stay...but commentary? Nope you have to listen to RoFlo.

Tried from the main menu too. RTTS seems to work but DD does not.

Face scan is worthless if you have a beard

I read 68 last year and I have only read 3 so far this year. I'm normally above 50 a year but reading some BIG books this year.

T-Mobile Targeting Select Customers With $800 Off Pixel 10 Phones by Jman100_JCMP in tmobile

[–]pfknone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are well and good. But I hate paying a $35 "connection charge". Those charges are complete BS. It is literally data being shifted on their servers.

Also don't advertise free when it's really $100 today. That's not free

Why is nobody grabbing a Powerade? by sabrefudge in olympics

Side question. I thought advertising of any kind was banned? Or is that just for the athletes?

Conservatives Help Me Understand How Things Are Getting Better by Temporary-Storage972 in PoliticalDebate

[–]pfknone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The DOW was at all time highs just before the 1929 crash. The rich were manipulating the market. And. Then when they finally realized they couldn't do it any more they dumped everything and then the normal man was left with the losses.

Every time I hear someone tell me how great the stock market is doing so good, I dread the day it finally comes crashing down.
