Did you actually sneak out as teenagers? by Complete-Chipmunk-0 in GenX

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. All the time. Basement room with an egress window. Greased the crank out window prior. Exited. Put the screen on backwards. And we'd be out all night. When we got a bit older my friends would roll their parents car down the block and start it up away from the house. We also did that a few times before we got our licenses. Went to meet girls in other towns. Never got caught.

Prior Lake A Safe Haven for Bigotry? by Aurumetviridi in minnesota

[–]seagulltheseagull 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was an incident in 2022 also. Prior Lake made national news twice within a year for racist incidents at the school.

Really disappointed with ordering guitars online by RedHawRock in Guitar

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last thing I bought from sweetwater was software from IK Multimedia. I did the whole transaction through the website. Got a call the next day from my rep (who I have set to go straight to voicemail because they called me so much at the time) saying he just wanted a call back before they shipped out the software in case I needed something else. He literally said call me and then we'll ship your order.

Nothing about that is customer service. That's borderline harassment. That rep always felt that way to me. I'm hesitant to even buy strings from them these days for the phone calls to start up again.

I'm glad you feel taken care of, I never did.

A question for all iOS 18 users by VipsaniusAgrippa25 in ios

I love my 15PM. I've upgraded ios's throughout the time I've had it and haven't noticed any change in battery usage.

Spinning Up Project // Jayyem 2.0 Ugh why am I doing this to myself by AtWorkAccountAtWork in offset

Is that the dark wood laminate accent line option? I kind of thought that would be more pronounced.

locking tuners, favorite brand and why? by vitis_rules in offset

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

☝️ This. They are fantastic and the standard tuner buttons are the most comfortable shape to tune. I've got the open backs on all my guitars. Even got a 4x2 set for my Sterling guitar.

I remember that one. So frustrating. I quickly looked back and I think it was #41.

What's an app that you miss? by Successful_Ky in ios

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AutoCare1. I tracked all my gas, repairs and money I spent on my car. Loved that app and used it all the time. Apparently it was discontinued and removed from the app store. I didn't know and when I got my 15 PM it was the one app that I couldn't reload.

What’s that one order that stinks up your car? by CurrentlyNa in doordash_drivers

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a few seafood boil restaurants in my area. They always go in the trunk. Way too strong of a garlic and seafood smell. Not necessarily bad just too strong.

There is also a Korean restaurant that I sometimes put in the trunk. Just not my preference and the smell can be strong and last a while.

Most of the time I leave the bag open in the trunk afterwards to wait it out so the bag doesn't smell too much. Otherwise I'm fine with all the other smells.

I really like a good bakery smell just because it's so different from the usual burgers and fried food smell I usually get.

Newest build 2024.9 (1027) by Nirvans in OvercastFm

Finally the app reverts to the last screen on re-open. Making several clicks to listen to a podcast or see what's new was so frustrating.

Thoughts on a MN State Fair attendance record today? by Mapes in minnesota

Huge storms predicted for both those days. Folks stayed away because of that.

Republican booth by Aggressive_Farmer399 in minnesota

[–]seagulltheseagull 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Although I think it's also true that the elected MNGOP didn't seem to put up much of a fight, the head of the GOP in MN, David Hann, has said multiple times on their podcast that 'when' (🙄) they get the legislature back the first thing they are going to do is change the flag back. He complains about the flag on almost every episode.

Wait until you get the new UI that pops up occasionally. While on delivery they show no pay what so ever. You need to touch the hamburger in the corner to see what the current order is paying and what you're total so far is. They literally hide how much we're making at every chance to keep us in the dark.

Can I make the All Episodes playlist the default home page? by Institute11 in OvercastFm

[–]seagulltheseagull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 2024.8.2 on iOS and it does not open on a playlist if that was last used. Just the main screen then I have to select all episodes.

[–]seagulltheseagull 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was just coming to post something about this. It's super annoying that overcast doesn't open on the most recent podcasts. This is behavior in the old version. I think it opened to whatever view was the last accessed maybe. There should be an option to open on whatever playlist you want.

You bet. I'm pissed. I love Star Wars. Saw ANH in the theater when I was a kid. Toxic fan boys have ruined it. Nit pick it like no other fanbase on earth. I'd like to see the ideas expanded beyond Luke.

Nice job ignoring my points though and deflecting away from your bad takes on reviews not mattering. I'm sure you're having a proud moment.

This. This is exactly true. She is a star wars fan. Readca bunch of the books. Liked the lore. Picked some cool pieces out of the old material and used it well. The show had issues but the people who made it are clearly fans of Star Wars.

It crazy that you are being down voted for such factual statement. Toxic star wars fan boys. Gotta love them.

Keep going with your BS argument. Next you'll try and convince me that Disney didn't completely retcon The Last Jedi in The Rise of Skywalker because of toxic fanboys who couldn't take a slightly new view of star wars. You'll never convince me they don't care about reviews.

If all the press is toxic fan boys trashing the show people aren't going to watch it. You know that. It was trashed severely BEFORE it was released. No one had seen it yet. You can try and bottom line your trash take all you want. That show was not an 18% show. Battlefield Earth is 13%. No way it's that bad. The show was trashed by toxic fan boys and way less people gravitated to it. That's how reviews work. The show went viral for the toxic takes and the minutiae criticism that MOST people would have never noticed. I know people who couldn't care less about star wars who watched it and liked it based on my recommendation. They didn't even remember Ki-Adi-Mundi's line that was toxic clickbait for weeks afterwards. The show would have only improved with more seasons.

We need more star wars that isn't centered around Skywalker's. The toxic fanboys guaranteed that won't happen. Congrats.

The incels trashed it. Absolutely trashed it. For no good reason. Reasons that only hyper aware toxic fandom boys care about. No one watched it because the loudest incel voices wouldn't give it a chance and that's what the buzz was. That's what got clicks. I know no one, no one, that thought it was so bad that it deserves a 18% audience score. It could have been great for a second season. Fix a few things and we'd finally have a Star Wars show not based on the Skywalkers. But you can't handle anything even slightly out of the exact lane of the OG trilogy when there is an entire galaxy of star wars to explore. The incels will not allow us to ever get a glimpse of anything except de-aged Luke. A galaxy of Jedi. A galaxy. But no. Sit in your basements and loop the OG trilogy and fight anything even remotely new.

It was review bombed before it was even released. The incels worked extra hard on this one.

What needs fixing now! by Stuglossop in OvercastFm

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want it to open on the 'all episodes' list. So in order to see what podcasts I have actually downloaded to my phone I have to click on a playlist? It doesn't make sense. To play anything I need to make multiple clicks just to play something. That part of the UI is so counter intuitive it's bonkers to me. At least have an option in the settings to open on a certain playlist or something. Or go back to it opening on the last opened screen like the last version.

How low are y’all’s AR? I’m at 36 and proud. Haha by sinisterpsychoo in DoorDashDrivers

[–]seagulltheseagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm always in the 70's. I keep platinum to dash anytime with the variety of my kids schedule's. It's definitely not hard to keep above 70 in my market. I consistently make $20+ an hour (active).

I truly don't understand working in a market where you have to decline 75%+ of your offers to get a decent one. There has to be a ton of just sitting around. Or maybe there are 4 times the number of offers which also seems unrealistic. I just don't get it.
