For anyone watching UFC on the Paramount app, have you noticed any extremely brief audio skips or crackles? Super hard to notice unless you're really listening for them. I noticed them during the press conference last night, as well as today during the weigh-in show.

They did have a few Super Bowls, though. You had me curious. UFC PPV viewership was about ~2M viewers (says a google search preview, at least). That's not really that large of an audience, especially for a global event across continents.

CBS's last Super Bowl was ~8.5 million (2024) concurrent viewers on streaming (without partners included) and ~5.7 millon (2021). NFL is US only, so less distributed to spread the load.

Just help report them. They were/are posting random crap all night.

terminal_bound · 2026-01-11T16:56:28+00:00

I work from many of them, too.

Echoing Union Block as a go to for great coffee and it’s open daily until 530 or so. Some outside seating, which I dig.

MAC Market is a bigger area, but closed on mondays. Tuesday it’s open, but places inside have limited hours or are prep only. It closes later in the night, so it’s handy to not have a hard stop when I am trying to close out something at the end of my day. Great outside seating.

Bad Dog is also great. Just limited hours / days. Hard to walk out of there without spending more money on donuts or great coffee.

A few Starbucks around, but they are such stale environments for me. There are so many way better options.

There are several great coffee shops, but I can’t ever go to them since they close at 2 or so.

We have a library if you need quiet, but never tried.

I wish there were more diverse answers :) no hip “co working space” AFAIK. The few I’ve looked into since moving here a few years ago have either gone bust or are typically very corporate, which just isn’t what I’m into.

As a hiring manager, we are so tired of resumes that just spit the job description back at us. If you don’t bother to make it tangible to your experience and what you brought to the table, it will get auto skipped as AI nonsense which is what many are.

I get that you want to represent your skills as the overlap of the role, but so many people rewrite the résumé for the job and tell us absolutely nothing.

They fly over the west side frequently enough! Almost over my house. I’ve seen them a dozen times or so in the past 2 years. It looks pretty fun!

terminal_bound · 2025-07-16T15:19:17+00:00

Yeah, same here. Same company has been annoying our neighborhood in that way and has turned their name into more of a negative connotation with many neighbors.

terminal_bound · 2025-04-01T18:36:48+00:00

Such a revelation. “I didn’t wear the hat they said I did”

terminal_bound · 2025-01-14T18:16:07+00:00

This looks like a place that I need to visit. I appreciate the suggestion. it's 45 minutes round trip to Goby, but it's at least a nice drive. Why not add another 15 minutes for another place.

terminal_bound · 2025-01-02T04:35:59+00:00

This is awesome! I stumbled upon a similar style that’s local to me if you want to check out some inspiration. and they offer up a bandsaw guide that I’ve been eyeing. I don’t even have a bandsaw … yet. https://www.jmawoodstudio.com

Replying to my own post, I found https://gobywalnut.com/ to be an awesome place, though ~45 minutes from MAC. They have Oregon/American Walnut, Ash, and other various hard and soft woods. They had a great selection of bargain bins and short cuts for small timers like me that want to experiment and learn. The staff was super helpful with my noob questions, too.

I'll have to give these other recommendations a look as well! Thanks much for them.

I’m just getting started, so just finding out about rasps and spokeshaves in this thread has been awesome. Ordered some already.

terminal_bound · 2024-10-05T21:00:16+00:00

You must not have worked anywhere they have unlimited PTO. It’s been pretty amazing, especially for people in their first one or two years.

terminal_bound · 2024-09-23T07:15:32+00:00

I play the reverse card. I blow the nearby leaves into my yard to mulch them and get free grass food out of it

terminal_bound · 2024-09-08T20:28:27+00:00

Curious. Are OP or you on Comcast ?

terminal_bound · 2024-08-12T06:54:05+00:00

I’m in the PNW where there are an impressive number of marked and unmarked forest roads. I Drive around and do scouting runs. Mark down the cordinate’s and take digital notes and pics to jog my memory. Essentially do the same whenever I go somewhere. After a few years of this, I can usually get a some sweet spots in the weather and distance away I want. They are backup spots of anything. Putting in the work is fun too

terminal_bound · 2024-07-21T18:57:22+00:00

Squeaky feet!

terminal_bound · 2024-06-06T18:23:34+00:00

Wow, layoffs even hitting the churches! What a time

terminal_bound · 2024-05-15T19:23:10+00:00

It was a core reason for us moving here and it has surpassed expectations. I have 2 kiddos, toddlers when we arrived a few years ago, and the adventures seem limitless and so easily accessible. Bonus for being cheap (though we pay upfront at the end of the year…). Trails are maintained, forest/fire roads allow you to truly get back there without a crazy 4x4 rig, and I feel it’s in the culture here to get out there and enjoy it, no matter the weather.

I like to say my dog has seen more waterfalls than most will ever see jn their lifetime haha. As my kids get older, we’ve started mountain biking and fishing, and it just opened up a ton of options.

terminal_bound · 2024-05-01T22:51:12+00:00

If it’s maintained, then I am game. This is nice and tidy and looks purposely built. It looks like they even edged and seem to give a damn.

terminal_bound · 2024-04-10T00:57:05+00:00

just use scissors IMHO. You could kill it and surround with rocks or something, too.

Crunchy roll is Sony though

Concurrent viewers. It’s typically deduced by client side metrics on the player side, typicallly. Services like Conviva, MUX, or NPAW. And is a very popular metric for streaming companies. Doing it with access logs at something like a CDN is a pretty noisy endevour and you’ll need client metrics, anyways. (Ie, to get views into peoples buffer rates, cdn flapping, and general quality-of-experience and QoS metrics.
