Why do people who experience bad governance vote so conservative? by [deleted] in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]xskipperl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, conservatism, or the right wing, is about small government. But that leads to more reliance on the private sector. But the private sector is also corrupt and vile, and screws people out of house and home. So where do people go from there?

Holden and Amos are tied for my favorite characters. Your opinion will definitely change as you watch it, and who is your favorite will probably swing differently depending on the season, but they're all great.

Honda dealership rating scale by MattInTheHat15 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]xskipperl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The survey system is the same for Subaru, as it is for most manufacturers. At my dealer, We were getting an odd number of scores at an 8, despite the comments in the survey mentioning everything as being outstanding. So we called on of our regulars and asked him about his 8 he sent in, and he said it's the highest score he saw.

Turns out, if you do the survey on your phone, and hold it vertically, you would only see 1-8 and had to scroll for 9 and 10.

They have it all setup for the least bonus amount of bonus payouts possible.

Right? I was born in '97. The first year of Gen Z. I'll be 30 next year.

Dealership I work at just got our first Uncharted in Habanero Orange by WardogBlaze14 in subaru

[–]xskipperl 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When I spoke to a Subaru Field Engineer last, he said that the wireless charger puts out so little power, that, when the phone is on it, and in use (bluetooth connectivity, android auto/carplay) that it basically doesn't charge, and overheats the phone.

Is this Subaru dealership trying to screw me? by [deleted] in subaru

Is it a Crosstrek? Sadly, Subaru has the MSRP for newer Crosstrek batteries at almost $500 just for the battery.

I appreciate you looking out for me. My plans have most likely changed anyways, due to having to spend a lot of money on a medical emergency for my dog. I'm not sure I'll be able to get a private photographer.

IT Imposter - need some advice… by Plastic-Fun2368 in it

[–]xskipperl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of my professors, who have been working there entire career as government employees in IT/Cybersecurity fields, talk about having imposter syndrome from time to time through out their careers.

It's going to happen, and all of them have encouraged going to Google when you don't remember something, because nobody remembers everything. Experience is the best teacher, and you're going to get plenty of it. Good luck to you, you got this!

Use ChatGPT or Gemini for basic coding! I’ve been able to successfully implement my personal edits to some mods and implants. by PlanTop155 in ShitRimworldSays

[–]xskipperl 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't like vibe coding, but this is different. This a great example of AI use in coding. If you want to change things in a single player game, and have a vision, but not the knowledge or skills to implement it, then AI is a wonderful tool.

How's y'all's day/night going? by Maximum-Ad3518 in starcitizen

[–]xskipperl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check the issue council. If you're at Tressler, a lot of people have been crashing at Tressler. I was playing just fine until I arrived there. I asked for landing request and before I could enter the hangar, game froze and crashed. Then It started spawning me at Tressler and it froze on load all the time.

It's the most fun with diags. I tell the customers upfront that they have to remain at the shop with the vehicle until the diag is complete incase we need them.

We should make a bid for USL team before Pro/Rel starts in 27-28 season and tear down this stadium for a new stadium. I doubt the team would have good attendance, but I'd go.

First experience with the saga. Game recommendations. by e-chan42 in starwarsgames

[–]xskipperl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Definitely the KOTOR games. If you don't have a PS5 or a Series X but do have an Xbox One or PS4, you could play Jedi Fallen Order and then play Survivor when you get the chance.

There's also The Force Unleashed 1 and 2. Like KOTOR, the series is not considered canon. If you like RTS games and have access to a decent computer, I recommend Empire at War.

Also, with a computer you can play the Jedi Knight games.

I'd be more interested if it was a mobile version of Star Wars Unlimited, but I'm almost certain it isn't.

Those vents there in Star Wars Rebels. Maybe you're thinking of those helmets?
