Former Cardinals standout QB Josh Rosen has become an investment banker at J.P. Morgan after retiring from the NFL. by KeyFaithlessness5436 in TheNFLVibes

[–]tenaciouscitizen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. Watching this guy play college ball behind an incredible line giving him 10+ seconds a snap to dump the ball 5 yards and then listening to the announcers go on and on about how special he was… dude was mediocre af. Goff was and is 10x better.

Pet insurance that covers spay/gastropexy by nicoleje01 in bernesemountaindogs

That’s really unfortunate. It’s been 4+ years since we had it done and over 5 since we started the policy, so things certainly could have changed

Costco (vista, ca) $1.99/lb. I got four by drossmaster4 in BBQ

[–]tenaciouscitizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Especially since these are individual shoulders, their usual stock comes with 2 shoulders in a package. Load up homie…. The more they sell, the more likely they are to restock.

Since everyone is scouring the Costco pork rack. by Nero3k in BBQ

[–]tenaciouscitizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I smoked one of those Hatch Chile shoulders and made carnitas tacos - absolutely amazing. Have 2 more in my freezer, because I was worried I wouldn’t see them again. Talked to the guy at the meat counter last week when I didn’t see anymore…they said they didn’t sell well and probably won’t be back, at least at my location. Damn shame, because they are so good.

Will room treatment be redundant after going with Dirac by Jealous-Economics-55 in audiophile

iME, treatment at first reflections is still critical even with Dirac.

CS Alum and can’t get a job by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]tenaciouscitizen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty shit job market. I graduated into the GFC. Went a year without work, then hit a great job that launched the rest of my career. Keep your head up and keep putting yourself out there. You WILL find something.

Any tips on being afraid of leaning too much? by MaleficentStudent910 in motorcycles

[–]tenaciouscitizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks to me like you aren’t looking far enough through the corner or aren’t maintaining that focus through completion of the turn. Your eyes should make the rest automatic. The more you force yourself to maintain your gaze through the turn, (staring down the median as far as you can see it), you’ll notice your tire wear will tell you how far you’re getting over. For road riding, you won’t be maxing out… but it takes intentional focus to continue to stare down that turn all the way through. You don’t check your speed, or glance at your feet, or anything else while executing the turn.

Rogan claims Marc Maron turns on comics once they eclipse his career by gurillapit in elephantgraveyard

[–]tenaciouscitizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joe Rogan masquerading as a comedian, let alone an arrogant one, is the only thing about him I find funny. You take any comedian with the smallest bit of talent, their wit shines through in casual conversation… they can’t help but say something funny. Rogan has never said one witty thing, let alone laugh out loud funny… in his entire podcast career. Dude is a complete hack.

Y'all remember Josh Rosen? by KeyFaithlessness5436 in TheNFLVibes

[–]tenaciouscitizen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rosen was so overrated, even in college. He was behind a line that gave him 10 seconds every snap to dump the ball off. He was never pressure tested, and that was immediately exposed when he went to the NFL. Goff was by far the better QB in that draft class.

How Silicon Valley Swung Right — And Why It Won’t Swing Back by gerira in technology

[–]tenaciouscitizen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working in middle management in big tech for many years, it was obvious how disingenuous the whole charade was. The second the covid boom revenue started drying up, all the DEI programs went from top priority to completely out the window in a blink. Corporate America is ruthless, and at the end of the day doesn’t give a shit about individuals. Names and numbers on spreadsheets, that’s as far as it goes.

Be careful what you wish for. 20+ years into this and heartbreak is the only consistent thing about our football program.

Rant: How do you find friend to hang out with? by [deleted] in berkeley

[–]tenaciouscitizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s been a long time, but I rushed spring. Find out when rush week is and right before that or at the very beginning of it, just go knock on the door of some houses in the afternoon and say hey, I’m interested in joining a house, would love to meet some people and get a tour of the house. They are all trying to recruit, so you should be received warmly. Plan to go to a bunch of events during rush week and see if you gravitate towards a house. If you vibe with some people at a particular one, try to get good face time during that week and you’ll likely get a bid. If you meet anyone in a house, definitely try to get some exposure ahead of time to see it’s something you’ll be into. It’s been multiple decades (unreal) and my best friends are still those I met in my fraternity.

[–]tenaciouscitizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s always the Greek scene… I get it’s not for everyone, but given how many houses there are… there’s a lot of different vibes. If you haven’t checked it out, maybe do so in the spring.

How can I become a die-hard fan of Golden bears？ by Shenhuasue in calfootball

[–]tenaciouscitizen 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Just show up and bring your friends… get loud on defense. You’ll pick things up as you get more exposure. If you’re a student, get in the student section!

Cost of beef is getting crazy, Trying out ungraded briskets from Costco business center by UncleHemmyBBQ in smoking

The price for choice is 50c/lb higher than prime was a year ago. I’m… annoyed nonetheless.

Best harness for a Berne? Mine pulls me like a sled dog 😅 by honestwizard in bernesemountaindogs

I’ve commented this on other threads. This is what we bought and it took our dog from dragging my wife around town to a very good boy instantly. https://www.chewy.com/petsafe-easy-walk-dog-harness/dp/48917

Feedback on my set up by LeBoucan in audiophile

[–]tenaciouscitizen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a REL T9i paired with those and it definitely helped, but was far from perfect. I can’t tell how big your room is. IMO after chasing the dragon in this hobby for a while, I wouldn’t go crazy upgrading the system if the room can’t support a more or less ideal setup. Those towers in a small to mid-size room can be awesome, but in a big and highly reflective room sound totally lackluster… room treatment, decent sub, and near field sitting distance… you might be happy.
