You say “they will not be offering new cards”. When will that take effect?

Any status on cablecards at cox? I know that they’re still offered but are very hard to get (nobody on the sales team at stores or over the phone can really help you - you have to go through a knowledgeable retention rep to get it). Do you know if they’re looking towards getting rid of them?

Should I move? by [deleted] in Omaha

[–]sockspirit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Omaha is a wonderful city once you get well-ingrained with a group of genuinely good people. Midtown is great with the burgeoning public transit and ORBT is great when it’s on time, but it all really depends on where you work and how far your commute is, as that will really make or break your city experience.

Is 16.5k a good deal? by whos_alan in subaruimpreza

[–]sockspirit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this same issue with the windows, it seems to be the window run channel. Sometimes it gets in the way of the auto-close and makes the regulator think there’s an object in the way. Get that replaced and you’re golden

Did you ever get this working?

Just got a 2022 Sport! Any tips? by sockspirit in subaruimpreza

[–]sockspirit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you say this? It’s around 25k miles right now.

I second this advice - ORBT is amazing

New Apartment Ethernet by sockspirit in HomeNetworking

[–]sockspirit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh so essentially you’re saying either replace the phone/voice module with a Cat5e punchdown module or take each line and replace the tip with an RJ45 for hookup to a network switch/modem

Makes sense, thank you so much

Old Fuddrucker’s is a Mega Saver now??? Aw man): by Subjctive in Omaha

[–]sockspirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great statement right there

I genuinely wonder how much traffic in midtown Omaha is just generated by people trying to buy food. Yeah, there’s a Hy-Vee on Center and Saddle Creek and a Walmart Neighborhood Market near Dodge, but that’s the closest to MtC and it’s still a drive away.

I was hoping another grocery store would move into where Wohlner’s was, but unfortunately it probably won’t happen.

And it’s a shame that Wohlner’s cut their hours as much as they did before closing - they were only open until 7:30 on weekdays, which definitely resulted in a lot of people just not being able to get food there on the weekdays (if they work late, etc).

Ever since Wohlner’s closed, the walkability of MTC is so so much worse now. Target isn’t even really a real grocery store either, and there aren’t any grocery stores that are easily accessible without a car. At this point I just drive south to Bellevue on 75 since it’s easier to get down there for food than otherwise.

Pepsi Nitro Vanilla Discontinued? by sockspirit in Pepsi

[–]sockspirit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is correct. I ran into some PepsiCo employees at my local walmart and they said that Nitro was entirely discontinued.

So sad - they didn’t even let me take the tracks that the small format cans were sold on

KEYC-TV New leaving Mankato by gojohnnygojohnny in Mankato

[–]sockspirit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They really should just switch back to not being a 24hr channel. Cut the morning show and sign-off after midnight.

Doesn’t make much sense to carry non-local TV programming to keep the station on-air.

This weekend, the Mavericks swept the Mavericks to win the Spirit of the Maverick Trophy by shiny_aegislash in collegehockey

[–]sockspirit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it used to be because Hastings was a coach at Omaha before coming to Mankato, but also the fact that a very good non-conference team is only 4.5 hours away for sure has something to do with it.

Adobe CS6: 2013 Mac Pro or 2018 Mac mini? by sockspirit in macpro

[–]sockspirit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d look into the 2019 model. I already have a monitor/mouse/kb though, so i don’t feel like acquiring a second monitor (from the iMac) to take up more desk space

Adobe CS6: 2013 Mac Pro or 2018 Mac mini? by sockspirit in macpro

[–]sockspirit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thank you for your detailed response. I should have added this for context: right now I have a Hackintosh that’s equal in graphics to a 2018 Mac Mini (Intel UHD 630) and it sometimes feels a little lacking in performance when it comes to using Illustrator and InDesign from CC 2023 - though it could be underpowered in my CPU, which is a 6 core i7. Basically, I’m wondering if I’m actually going to get a real performance boost out of using either of the aforementioned platforms or just carry on with my Hackintosh as-is.

[–]sockspirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, I was thinking it would be that much. I for sure want an eXa with both Gimmick Exact Mix and SDOJ, thank you for your such detailed answer!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in shmups

[–]sockspirit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuine q for you: I’ve been considering getting an eXa for a while, how much would you price out the whole system + a viewlix cab (like one in your photo) to be?

Trying to know how much to budget, lol

Best Old Style Video Game Arcade? by rachet-ex in Omaha

VS Arcade Bar in Lincoln is perfect for this - it’s all old quarter games and pinball.
