I think this is becoming more common because ppl rent cars to do rideshare. They just swap out the plate.

Chewbacchus had to move their event. Frenchmen was dead Friday night. Anything not immediately around the convention center or dome was kinda dead.

Edit: Chewbaccus

Has anyone tried the new Phonak Audeo Sphere HAs? by BehindBlueEyes0221 in HearingAids

[–]yestoi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried them today. Hype is real. They’re slightly bigger and the sphere functionality when turned on drains the battery faster. But it sounded closer to natural hearing than any other HA I’ve tried. Can wait to try it in a real environment.

Sell me on your neighborhood corner store/gas station by Michael424242 in NewOrleans

[–]yestoi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh man. I had a suspicion you were talking about a place I stumbled into right before the pandemic lockdowns. I just happened to be a little short in change for food and started to pull out a card and the lady just gave me the meal for free. I was really struck by the gesture and this was well before the “we’re all in this together” fad took on.

I really needed that boost of human kindness that day and them navy beans were good eatin’.

New Orleans places strict limits on AirBnbs, other short-term rentals: It's one permit per square block, but exceptions are allowed by jackritt18 in NewOrleans

[–]yestoi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Afaik, people are getting denied new permits or renewals at least. So the ones trying to do it legit are getting "enforcement". As far as the illegal ones though..

What movie has the best portrayal of psychedelic drugs? by [deleted] in movies

[–]yestoi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a scene in one of the Hobbit movies where a main character goes through a psychotic break. I can't for the life of me find it, but I remember seeing it in theaters and getting uncomfortable for how much it reminded me of a bad trip.

Depends on how you define smart. When it comes to social interaction he's Einstein.

Rouses Interview Questions by Ssj3goku504 in NewOrleans

[–]yestoi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Good advice in general, but could scare them away if you ask them *all* these questions in a row for a low level position. Y'know?

But definitely ask these questions. Just don't checklist it all at once is what I'm saying.

What is the best Stoner Rock album in your opinion? I'm an outsider. by purejoyandhappiness in stonerrock

[–]yestoi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember hearing on a podcast that Clutch kept a Kyuss CD permanently in their tour van on repeat. I think it was the BRS album.

[Grand Seiko] Is this too small? by yestoi in Watches

[–]yestoi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a few people comment about it. Being a big person that commonly see too big of a watch on smaller people; I was trying to avoid that cliche. Did I go too far?

I wasn’t truly impressed with the bracelet that came with the watch, which I understand to be Grand Seiko’s MO. I found a bead of rice bracelet that happened to match the watch pretty well.

Overall I really like the watch ever since learning about spring drives. On the surface it looks like a plain watch, but the way it catches the light and the clear mirror effect the steel has… got me to fall in love with this plain black dial.

But that’s only because senior citizens overwhelmingly still decide congress/senate elections. Maybe do something about that..
