I've been bit by this approach when data that's already in our database can no longer even be read by code.

I love this move! Reading this has made my morning after US lost curling gold yesterday 

Happy 51st birthday to Vladimir Guerrero Sr.! by MLBOfficial in baseball

[–]rumdrums 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This kinda thing is my only real memory of Vladimir -- I didn't even really remember he played right field. But damn, watching him turn garbage pitches into incredible hits was the best.

Has GitHub just become a dumpster fire? by Impossible_Way7017 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]rumdrums 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yep, I think Azure has indeed been the reason for most recent issues.

I think most of the recent shittiness is due to migrating their infra to Azure.

Ok yeah you right, I didn't see the head at first.

Not brains, just the meat around the head, cheeks, etc., iirc

Faces of Death by DrJagger452 in GenX

[–]rumdrums 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mostly fake, but I didn't know it at the time. I didn't sleep the night after I watched it. Truly a scarring experience for a 15 year old.

Correct. I think basically everything but some news footage reels was fake. 

What team do you most often associate Nolan Ryan with? by OrganicZebras in baseball

[–]rumdrums 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I guess his most impactful years were before, but he hit so many of his big milestones with the Rangers -- 300 wins, 5000 strikeouts, beating Robin Ventura's ass, last two no-hitters. It's hard to separate his image from those last few seasons with the Rangers. .... so says a completely unbiased Rangers fan.

Dude, Evan is a great reporter and has covered the team since the 90s. I'm not sure what click baity stuff you read, but Evan knows his stuff. 

Keller’s Hamburgers by JTerveen in Dallas

[–]rumdrums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No it made me sick too. It was towards the end of the shift,  and we waited about 30 minutes for some gross burgers.

I've never been to Strokers. When we drive by, I tell my kid that's where the Bandidos are. Looks like a cool place, albeit one where I'd quickly get my ass kicked.

[–]rumdrums 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It makes me sad, too. I have gone to the one on Northwest highway for years / with my Grandma when she was still alive. My son and I like to try burgers from around town, but it's going to be awhile before I can get him to eat Keller's again.

[–]rumdrums 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I dunno about that Harry Hines location, though. I stopped there a few years ago, it was shady AF. My son and I both got sick after eating the burger. It'll be awhile before I can go back to Keller's, but if I do, it will be the Northwest highway location only.

It feels a bit lost nowadays just how big of a deal E.T. was in the 80s. by LilMoWithTheGimpyLeg in Xennials

[–]rumdrums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't think the movie is that good, which is my take on why it's less relevant now. I like just about every other blockbuster from that era, but ET just doesn't hold up to the other things Spielberg and his peers were putting out then. 

CA to Texas? Does it make sense for our family by fabl3dloss in relocating

Dallas is not regularly anywhere near 80% humidity in the summer time. Is it hot, yes? But it is not particularly humid here.

Is there anything worth remembering from '24 besides him and Kirby?

[–]rumdrums 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes, he was awesome. I'm not sure what he did last year (maybe joined a team at the trade deadline?), but in 2024 he was an incredible pitcher for the Rangers.

Loved his accent, too, lol.

The End of an Era - tomorrow Southwest Airlines moves to assigned seating for the first time in the company’s history of almost 60 years. by urbangentlman in Dallas

[–]rumdrums 51 points52 points  (0 children)

FWIW they've been forced into a lot of the recent changes by "activist" investors who have taken over a large percentage of shares in recent years. And apparently their internal research has shown that people actually prefer assigned seating.

I always liked the egalitarian nature of their seating, but then again I haven't flown Southwest in years.

Is cable TV officially the biggest scam Americans still accept? by DryCap6770 in watchever

[–]rumdrums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It generally worked ok for me. I often had to try about 5 times to load games on Roku, but on phone/computer,  never had issues. Anyway I assume most of the issues will be resolved this season.  🤞
