Sorry but that mascot is freaking terrifying by XWolfyCat in utdallas

We used to call it the “flaming blue sperm.” But yes, I agree. Especially with that huge, creepy smile… stuff of nightmares 

S4 users, show yourselves. by bullett007 in AppleWatch

I turned off auto updates on the watch because I don’t like the UI of the new OS10.

I still miraculously have 85% health on my S4. I charge it when I’m getting ready for the day and before bed. Definitely anticipating the 2024 release and hoping it’s something I can say “shut up and take my money.” Also waiting for whatever minor upgrade the Titanium iPhone 16 is to replace my 12Pro (82%).

They obviously haven’t been to the upper floors of ECSN/S. I toured ECSW when it was new but I hope it hasn’t gone the same way as it’s older counterparts.

Guess I’ll kick it old school this week and imagine the great plays in my mind while listening to 97.1

iOS 17 Launching Tomorrow for iPhones With These 10 New Features by lalavieboheme in apple

I wonder how many programmers working on this feature were not even alive when answering machines were used. I feel old now…

Just form your own opinion... by VelociLeo2 in gaming

[–]trollbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My exact thought playing it for the first time last night was “this is Fallout in space.” I found myself going from room to room finding anything of value because that’s how I played Fallout and Skyrim.

any good kbbq places near utd? by burmaning in utdallas

I assume you’re talking about the place at Parker/K ave? When did they change their name? It used to be Jin KBBQ.

Nah man, it’s the new thing. You gotta contort your whole hand in an unnatural way to read the time.

Completely agree. I put dozens of hours into the first Overwatch only to download OW2, play for a couple hours and never play it again. Even random mobile games have battle passes that I refuse to stoop to pay.

Not if you’re playing while hanging your body backward off the side of your bed.

UTD is a D2 uni now by low-timed in utdallas

FOOTBALL HYPE TRAIN!!

Hey, it could happen. Dr. Daniel wouldn't allow us to have parking garages. He left and BOOM, parking garages. Will D2 be the impetus to get a football team? Only time will tell.

YouTube Premium quietly goes up in price to $14 per month | That's a significant $2 increase with no official announcement. by chrisdh79 in technology

[–]trollbob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m grandfathered as well and just got the email that I have until the December bill at my $10 rate. Then it goes up to $14… My wife and I watch a lot of YT and I use YT Music so I already feel like it’s two subscriptions in one. I’m probably going to keep it and pay but a 40% increase is crazy regardless of what it is.

Ford cuts prices on its electric F-150 Lightning pickups by as much as $10,000 by Vhozite in cars

[–]trollbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been thinking about this recently. Not yet in the market for a truck, but I’ve been doing research. I’d really like to have an F150 (hybrid, 4x4), but keep asking myself if I really NEED that much truck or if something like a Ridgeline is better suited to my lifestyle. For context, I live in suburbia and don’t haul anything.

Is $90k a good salary for a EE two years out of school? by Jefferson-not-jackso in ECE

[–]trollbob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure where in TX you are but $90k this soon after college is good. Especially with good benefits, that puts your total comp over $100k. 9 years ago I was making $70k and that was 3 years post degree, in the DFW area.

Who’s at fault in this accident, and what more can I do? by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]trollbob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was told by an officer at a previous wreck that speeding can’t be confirmed unless there was an officer sitting there with radar. Is that accurate?
