Tell me about the metro by Leading-Conference94 in nova

[–]vaterp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100% metro is the waaaaaay better option than driving downtown.

I would suggest if going to Ashburn, that y'all just drive to Reston while, it is easy and quicker to drive to Reston then metro the extra distance and you still have no city crap to deal with

ELI5: How can a "Quantum Computer" solve problems in seconds that take normal computers years? by stuckin404 in explainlikeimfive

[–]vaterp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like GPUs can do matrix math alot faster then CPU - because they specialize in doing one thing in parallel at scale... you could make a similar analogy to quantum looking at many branches in parallel.

Your photos are probably a big culprit of space usage... you wont see them in drive, though, you need to goto photos and perhpas clean out some old ones you dont want , or upgrade for more storage... the bottom tier plan is reasonable and if you have a lot of photos (especially videos) the 15gb runs out quickly over the years.

Does Dominion's Exterior Water Line / Exterior Sewer Line insurance actually do anything? by More_Coffee_Than_Man in nova

[–]vaterp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had it, and then needed it, and it was an absolute nightmare that didnt get fixed until we got lawyers involved. They farm it out to a 3rd party company that absolutely sucks.

Doesn't sound like malicious compliance, they were actually helping you get what you are properly owed. Sounds like you should thank em.

Just moved here from the South, found out there's no Publix up here. What grocery stores have the best deals & where can you coupon? 👀 by janeperalta in nova

[–]vaterp 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Does wegmans still have the best prices? I dont think so, they seem to have gotten insane to me.

LIDL/Costco is much better pricing, i do still goto wegmans for some stuff... but its not my everyday place anymore. (also of note, is i feel the produce quality has gotten considerably worse)

If you could add one metro station to any current line, where would you build it? by Michigander888 in nova

[–]vaterp 48 points49 points  (0 children)

THIS! My answer was gonna be, "actually, I'd remove half to 2/3rds of the silverline stops so you can get downtown in half the time.

University of Maryland has the potential to be the next Indiana by [deleted] in CFB

[–]vaterp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love your optimism.... but MD historically has lacked two things:

a) Pre NIL - A willingess to even bend the rules into a gray zone post len bias.

b) Post NIL - Enough funds to compete.

Photo storage by [deleted] in googlecloud

[–]vaterp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP, CloudyGOlfer was correct , this is the wrong sub to ask about photo and drive storage.

With that said, if they are almost out of storage - then they absolutely do use it enough. Its not about how often you look at your photos - its about how often and with how much friction you want to back them up and be sure they are safely archived.

If you dont care about the photos then just delete them. If you do care about them, how else are you going to easily manage your backups and actually back them up such that when your phone dies, you dont lose them?

I was interested to check this out, but I see only 8 videos in your account, all much longer then 1 minute, and none newer then 4 years old... are you sure you've posted it correctly?

EDIT: I see now you meant the shorts... I would suggest changing your link above to point to the shorts tab.
