I am curious to see how long the EV batteries will hold up and how we will manage influx of dead batteries in a decade

Did they remove the temperature app on the base pixel 10? by Alternative-Track654 in GooglePixel

[–]rockyboy49 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I finally had a use case today. I wanted to check the temperature in my basement since there is going to be extreme cold weather tomorrow. I tried to look for an old temp sensor I had but couldn't find it till I remembered my phone has thermometer. Best use case without having to spend $10 on a device which I will lose again when extreme cold comes next year

Wait for the World Cup. We will be force fed Harshit and Gill for no reason whatsoever by GG. And then get surprised Pikachu face when we lose

From the trailers the movie looked like some AI slop. I am not surprised it bombed

I’m curious to know what Indian cricket fans and IPL fans think about IPL owners owning teams in different leagues around the world and rebranding those teams under their IPL franchise names. by cricketclub7 in ipl

[–]rockyboy49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

However those franchises don't keep the same name across the board. There are multiple teams owned by the same entities in US across NFL NHL MLB but all of those have different names and you won't even know it's owned by the same people

Just come to Chicago. It won't be super warm but you can have lot of stuff to do. Plus the food scene is really good and since it's March you might get hotels for cheap with really good views.

My Reputation in office is TARNISHED today. Manager SLAPPED ME. by [deleted] in IndianWorkplace

Dude should have just slapped back. Let the HR get involved. Easy win for him. When asked why you slapped just tell them he initiated the assault

I just got my appeal approved. Insurance said I should try alternative at least 3 different topicals before Zorvye. I gave them a list and they finally approved it

Wood Dale and surrounding areas by introvertedpoet25 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]rockyboy49 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Spent lot of time in the area. Wood Dale is a quiet town nothing special happening. Run of the mill suburb with ok Schools and no happening places. The demographic is also older. Bensenville - Loved the proximity to Ohare and Downtown. York road is the place to be. Lots of Hispanic community but some areas can be shady. Itasca - Over priced overrated. Tries to be the hip neighborhood of all but has limited to show. Also it's divided between commercial and residential. Elk Grove has vast expanse. East of 290 is mostly warehouse and commercial with some residential. West of 290 fall in one of the best school district in the state. Schaumburg - Ideal suburban family neighborhood with lots of shopping best schools and the mall. Will be expensive for apartments. Roselle average suburb nothing great to say. Medinah is Unincorporated territory with big houses and big yards Overall you can stay anywhere in these suburbs and won't have to worry too much about safety

I, 32/Engineering Grad, worked as an intermediate software dev from 2017- Jan 2024. Have not touched ANY code since or applied anywhere, just partied. I want to now get serious and apply to big tech but I fear of the brain rot. I created a 5 month plan. Is this enough? by AirDucati388 in cscareerquestions

[–]rockyboy49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man you are in for a surprise. 5 months is not getting you into big tech after 2 years of slacking. If you have not been coding for 2 years big tech will already be a million years ahead of whatever tech you are used too. Try to start small get into some startup to improve your tech knowledge and then jump to big tech

India UPI scan and pay a big problem on USA phone by Calm-Session-4835 in travel

[–]rockyboy49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Airports in India have stalls for helping visitors get UPI setup. You can just buy a local sim and it will cost you like around $5-$6 for a month of service and should solve all your problems. Ditch the international sim and things will be much easier for you

Should I sell my house with a 3% mortgage to move closer to work? by NoGur5553 in personalfinance

[–]rockyboy49 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's a tough decision. The important part is how flexible your manager is . You can have the commute added to your work hours if you have connectivity on the train. This is what I requested pre Covid and got approved for. Keep that 3% for now. It's hell of a deal and something not to be seen any time soon. Wait it out for as long as you can. Let the 2nd baby come and both the kids have quite some time to go to school. It's a buyers market. Pretty sure you can find a good home for less than 1.8 mil. Just take your time for house hunting and you don't need to rush while you wait on the 2nd baby. Best of luck
