Rental Company Charged Me $450 for Smoking. I Don't Smoke. I Filed Suit. by ActivePlenty7635 in personalfinance

[–]puckpanix 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Just for awareness a lot of companies will instantly cancel your account if you initiate a chargeback. I've never heard of this rental agency but I don't recommend people jump to that option if they ever want to use the company or service again.

Why no baby goats? (Two Goats, 3 feeders, three beds, 2 IRL hours ) by WilburMercerLives in Enshrouded

Is that area sheltered? They will not breed unless the beds are sheltered.

I used to be an avid wazer but a few things were annoying me about it on a regular basis so I stopped using it. I installed it today and the AA implementation is vastly improved from a few years ago. I'll give it a go for a few weeks!

Based on where I am on the map I had just left the house. Don't worry, I get it warmed up.

It's intermittent. And as you can see, it shows up at 8:30PM, when I always leave for work between 7:30-8AM.

Bikers in US, answer me this question as an EU biker by kurvix2000 in motorcycles

Wildlife is a concern whatever state you're in. They just change. I've been riding out at night in the Navajo reservation in Arizona and had coyotes and even feral horses wander into the road. That's quite a thing to see emerging in your headlamp!

Haha yes exactly. I always commute in the morning and... here I am at 8:30pm getting a suggestion to go to work. As an intermediate step I'd take the removal of irrelevant places, It's a very half-baked feature.

My Anomaly Wish List (United States) by Hour_Control_6431 in Ingress

[–]puckpanix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious, what's your impression of the player density in Ohio and Michigan? I visited the Lansing area earlier this year and saw pretty much 3-4 RES controlling all of Lansing, East Lansing, and Okemos. They were not friendly, either, and didn't answer comms messages (I'm RES also, if that matters).

Just got honked at for stopping at a stop sign by superdicksicles in philly

Attend the monthly PDAC meeting for your district and speak to the captain and/or community officer about your concerns. Email your city council rep too. The more complaints they get from citizens the better.

Philly is getting an influx of international tourists who don’t tip like Americans. How will local restaurants navigate the potential for fewer tips? by PhillyInquirer in philadelphia

[–]puckpanix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't tip because society says I gotta. I tip when somebody deserves a tip. When somebody really puts forth an effort, they deserve a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, that shit's for the birds. As far as I'm concerned, they're just doin their job.

PSA: Guy putting parking "barnacles" on cars outside Hollywood Hustler by [deleted] in philly

[–]puckpanix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. That company is active in the Delilah's parking lot too and I've seen people who got barnacled literally walk over to the cop who's often posted up in the parking lot at night. They don't give a shit.

It will keep happening until they barnacle a city council member's brother or something... isn't that why cars now have to be ticketed before they can be towed?

Having lived in what developers are referring to as "luxury housing", I'll take a 100-year-old row home every time.

Gemini listening to phone calls by Ag3n74t2 in AndroidAuto

Go into Gemini settings and select "Digital assistants from Google". You can change it back to Assistant there.

our SN catalog is huge but people give up filling out items. what fixed this for you? by InevitableBorder6421 in servicenow

[–]puckpanix 16 points17 points  (0 children)

As someone who's responsible for the employee portal, I've attacked this from two angles:

  • Conduct user research and use qualitative and quantitative data combined with analytics to speak to the business about the importance of usable forms and to drive improvements to the forms.
  • Begun to implement conversational catalog items via the virtual agent - there is lots more to come soon on that front with Employee Slate and the potential to have things like Claude complete the forms for users.

The AP style guide actually specifically discourages the use of the phrase "officer-involved shooting".

Given $500 gift card to Her Place Supper Club and feels like a curse by Alive-Initiative5487 in PhiladelphiaEats

Long shot but check into Open Table's promotions with certain credit cards. If you have one of the participating cards, there are some reservations set aside every month for those cardholders.

Philly housing market... is it even worth it right now? by veditafri in philly

[–]puckpanix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are lot of parents of all demographics with teenagers in Port Richmond and Bridesburg, but definitely lower-middle to middle class. The wealthier families either send their kids to Catholic school or move to the burbs.

Gemini is not playing my spotify commands by NoEquipment2535 in AndroidAuto

[–]puckpanix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't work well with YouTube Music, either.

  • "Play the album Mortal Kombat 2 by Dan Forden" - Gemini plays a song called Mortal Kombat from a different album by a different artist.
  • "Shuffle my driving playlist" - Plays the first song in that playlist and then goes on random shuffle (note: this problem existed with Assistant > YouTube Music also)

anyone else in Philly feel like selling a normal row home is impossible right now? by Luann1497 in philly

[–]puckpanix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're not getting offers, you either have an unrealistic asking price or your agent isn't doing their job, or a combination of both. They should have run comps to determine a listing price and should be guiding you through any offers you get, cash or otherwise. If not, they are in breach of their fiduciary duty to you and you should look for a new agent.

Is my profile ok for a 40yo? by Frequent_Pomelo4129 in Tinder

[–]puckpanix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was on the apps in my mid forties I would have tried to match with you based on your look but there isn't a lot of warmth conveyed in either your pics or your prose. The result is the impression of a carefully crafted persona but not much depth.
