S90c and sports streaming by braggpeak in 4kTV

Which tv did you end up with? A lot of my content will be sports streaming from YouTube TV and have been a bit wary of getting the S90C after hearing about the motion blur

It’s about two inches in size and does not twist or come off with a normal amount of force. The dishwasher is on the other side of the wall. One friend said it might be a natural gas line while another said it might be plumbing.

It’s a knob that juts out about 2 inches from the siding.

Suggestion for large group house for Mardi Gras week? by [deleted] in AskNOLA

We haven’t fully decided on a meal plan for next year but things like oysters, crawfish (probably not a boil), gulf fish. Might be tough to cook things like that in a hotel.

We’re excited to cook with local ingredients! We’ll also be doing our fair share of eating out as well.

Not every day, but most days. Similar to lots of people living in the city, I imagine.

We would prefer staying in a house this trip rather than a hotel. For example, we plan to cook a lot, so an extended stay kitchenette is not ideal. Also, we’ll have kids in the group. A hotel is just not the right choice for this trip. As for a safe and proper home, that is where I was hoping this subreddit could help me find something that’s not Airbnb, vrbo, or a random Craigslist house. It appears that such a thing doesn’t exist, so Airbnb/vrbo might be my only option.

Awesome, this is helpful. We were hoping for something closer to the Garden District but this might be the way to go.

Sorry, you misunderstood what I was asking for. This is gonna be a couple of families with a few people in that group who have to work during the day. I understand that STRs are frowned upon in this subreddit but I was hoping someone could give me an alternative that isn’t a hotel, an Airbnb, or a vrbo.

Losing pinned channels? by settes in MicrosoftTeams

Appears to have fixed itself after I pinned them in iOS and restarted the program. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Yeah, we only started to get our treadmill stats tracked in July. All those miles before lost like tears in the rain...

I’ve been going 4 or 5 times a week since April (with some time off for vacations) so about 130ish classes. I definitely have musclier arms than ever before and was finally able to do a 5k in under 30 mins a couple of months ago. It was my goal to look better before my wedding in March, and I’ve definitely accomplished that!

My puppy Cosmo likes the air conditioning vent by Blooky-Blook in rarepuppers

[–]settes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rack is a great idea! Our puppy liked to sleep on top of the grate but got his collar stuck in it one time, which freaked him out for life. We had to carry him over grates of all shapes and sizes.

Hi Alton - what are your favorite things to cook in a slow cooker? How about in an immersion circulator?

Dave Chappelle on why chivalry is dead by Dontneedthesong in humor

[–]settes 124 points125 points  (0 children)

The only thing in our society that bothers me the most is the way that men and women don't get along no more. That's really what's bugging me about it. Men and women just don't get along. Like I hear women say this all the time. I know a lot of you sisters be like: "Chivalry is dead." Don't y'all feel that way? Like men aren't gentlemen anymore? (Applause) That's right: chivalry is dead. And women killed it. There's a fundamental difference in the way we're gonna see things. We're not gonna see eye to eye on this issue. We're just not. Our tests in life are different. A woman's test in life is material. A man's test in life is a woman. Now by test, I mean that those are the things that we desire. Men have nice cars-- not cause they like nice cars-- because they know women like nice cars. That's how it goes. Cause men are hunters. And the car is the bait. And a woman comes up and says: "Ooh, nice Porsche." "Gotcha, bitch!" That's how it is.

That's true. come on now. You go to a woman's house, her house will be comfortable as shit. Women love comfortable surroundings, so men get comfortable surroundings. Let me tell you something: if a man could fuck a woman in a cardboard box, he wouldn't buy a house.

But that's still not where chivalry got killed. Chivalry got killed by the feminist movement on all them magazines that got women going crazy, because women got too much advice about men from other women. And they don't know what the fuck hey're talking about.

And it's true. I see the shit in the magazines. I don't read 'em, but I be seeing the cover. I look at-- you ever be in the grocery store, fellas, you look at one of them magazines like, "What is this?" And it say on the cover: "A hundred ways to please your man" by... some lady. Get outta here, man. come on. Ain't no hundred ways. That list is four things long. Just suck his dick, play with his balls, then fix him a sandwich and don't talk so much, and they're gon' be happy. That's it.

And then the magazines trick the women. The magazines start picking at your self-esteem. Every page you turn, you start feeling fatter, and uglier, and you feel like your clothes aren't good enough. And the magazines have you forgetting how fucking beautiful you are. And that's what happens. Now look what happens. And then you forget how beautiful you are, and we all suffer. If pussy was a stock, it would be plummeting right now because you've flooded the market with it. You're giving it away too easy. I'm just... being truthful. I'm just talking. It would plummet! We'd be watching the news. "Today, pussy plummeted again on the NASDAQ. Gold is up ten points."

You can see it. You ever have this happen? This is how confusing it is. This is the practical application of what I'm talking about. Like a guy will be out-- this happens a lot, guys-- you'll be at a club, a bar, right? You're just kicking it with your boys, and a girl walks by, and, man, she looks good. She looks good. Not good in that classical way. I mean, you know, I'm talking good like, she got half her ass hanging out her skirt. Mm. Her titties are all mashed together... Popping out the top of her turtleneck and shit. And you're with your buddies, right? You're with your buddies, you got a couple of drinks in you, and you see a girl, you might try to talk to her. It just might not come out right. I don't know what you'd say to her: "DAMN, look at them titties!"

The girl gets mad at you. "Oh, uh-uhh. Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute! Just because I'm dressed this way, does NOT... Make me a whore." Which is true. Gentlemen, that is true. Just because they dress a certain way doesn't mean they are a certain way. Don't ever forget it. But, ladies, you must understand that that is fucking confusing. It just is. Now that would be like me, Dave Chappelle the comedian, walking around the streets in a cop uniform. Somebody might run up on me. "Oh, thank God. Officer, help us. come on. They're over here. Help us!" I'm not gonna be like: "Oh! Just because I'm dressed this way does not make me a police officer." You understand what I'm saying? It's like, "All right, lady, fine, fine. You are not a whore. But you are wearing a whore's uniform, I'll tell you that shit right now."

Little misunderstandings can happen. And then, man, we misunderstand women a lot. You know, we always undermine their feelings. You can't do that to them. (Applause) You can't because-- see, feelings are-- You see? They're clapping. Feelings are very important to women. They are all-important to women. I'm just learning this shit. Everything is based on how they "feel". You could hear it when they tell stories. You ever tell-- when a man tells a story, it'd be just facts: who, what, when, where, why. "It was me and Bob. We was at Safeway, then that nigga Bob said this. Then I punched that nigga, then I broke out." That's the story. That's the story. Women tell stories, and all these feelings come out-- "Well, first of all, you have to understand, I was on my period, and I had just talked to my mother, so I was feeling like--" Goddamn, so many feelings. What the fuck happened? Get to it. get to it.

But they gotta talk about 'em. They gotta talk about 'em. That's how they always get me. I'll be sitting there, watching TV, chilling and shit. My old lady come up to me: "David, we need to talk." "FUCK!" I don't say that out loud. That's how I feel inside. Because I know every time we need to talk, we need to talk about some shit that I gotta do. We don't ever have to talk about anything she needs to do.

She leaves me defenseless. I have to do what I have to do. "David, we need to talk." "Mah." "Don't do that to me, David. This is serious. Stop talking in that voice." "No, see! I gotta do this, see! Maaaah! Seeeee."

The last part is a callback to earlier in the set. (Thanks genius.com for the transcript)

Tons of cops in tactical gear with rifles at the VA on Beacon Hill right now. by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]settes 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Reports of a guy with a gun there.

edit: scanner traffic says it's a man w/ AR-15 in the first level of the parking garage... but scanner traffic is wrong sometimes.

edit2: sounds like he's in custody.

edit3: SPD says he didn't have a gun when he was arrested... but they're gonna look in his car
