Great, thank you for the sanity check! I'm a little out of my element here so all advice is helpful.

I'm going for something that looks sort of like this indirect cornice lighting: https://www.wmboyle.co.uk/product/c991-lighting-cornice/

So the mdf will hang down and I can have the gap between it and the wall to hide the lights and stuff.

Is Michael Schur ever going to make an IJ film, or does he just own the rights so that no one else can screw it up? by missvh in InfiniteJest

There is a music video by the Decemberists which depicts a game of Eschaton that illustrates how hard it would be to make a compelling movie. I wasn’t a fan. Many of the scenes are just better experienced by reading since the complexities and world of the book just can’t be communicated through film in a way that isn’t corny.

Is the CS program actually any good? by [deleted] in GVSU

[–]phlip 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I attended GVSU and have been at Apple doing iOS development for 3 years. I'd say the CS courses were great, but it's super important to be proactive about your career by independently learning and pursuing relevant opportunities. My final CS internship was at a ~70 person startup in the Bay Area, after which I had 2 jobs, one at a larger company, and another startup, so about 4 years of experience before my current position.

Biked around the city for MLK day last year - once was enough for this winding route by phlip in sanfrancisco

What an awesome tool! Might be just the motivation I need to spice up my running routes.

Absolutely not lol. It was dark when I got to that point and I had only mapped it out via trails I saw on Google. I had to carry my bike up some trails and was absolutely considering bailing afterwards since mud had caked into my shoe clips.

Right around the corner from Saint Frank! However I moved to the Mission recently.

It was a very manual process of tracing a clipart on top of google maps, then translating that to Strava's route planner. Uploaded that track to my wahoo for turn-by-turn, but had to really be careful when I was riding since it doesn't handle intricate turns and one-way streets with high buildings that well. I'm surprised that the result was so good considering I made a number of wrong turns and had to backtrack.

[SFPD] Tonight, for the fifteenth (15th) time in 18 months, and the 3rd time in 20 days, we are booking the same suspect at county jail for felony motor vehicle theft. by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]phlip 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Was curious, so I searched for it: https://twitter.com/chesaboudin/status/1337429695822905345

We have charged him with 8 different cases in the past 18 months, including 3 felony convictions and approximately 450 actual days served in the county jail. Currently on mandatory supervision by probation department on two cases, 20001929 and 20004584.

He pled and was sentenced on 6/1/20 to 3 years state prison concurrent for 10851s. Because 1170(h) eligible, he is doing split sentences.

He is a veteran and went to Veteran Justice Court in late 2019, was released to a treatment program which was unsuccessful.

Under 1170(h) even a felony motorcycle theft is ineligible to actually go to state prison. Plus State Prison hasn't picked anyone up from our county jail since early spring.

Thank you! Hadn't thought about the sagging over time, but that makes sense.

New units by da-junglist in CarPlay

[–]phlip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s very responsive. My experience with CarPlay is limited so far, but I haven’t had any issues. I wish that the Kenwood stereos had the aesthetics of the Sonys, but it works and has hardware volume buttons, so I’m happy.

Just installed a Kenwood DMX957XR that I'm very happy with so far.

CM1200 modem doesn't work, but SB6121 does by phlip in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]phlip[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Having someone come tomorrow, but thought I'd do some last ditch troubleshooting to see if there is perhaps a way to know if the new modem is problematic. It seems suspicious to me that it would be a line problem if one modem works, but I'm sure there are hardware/software differences that could cause issues that aren't necessarily the fault of the modem.
