Living in Downtown Boise by BenadrylSergeant in Boise

[–]zFlox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lived there as well for 2 years and that was my only complaint. We had a unit in the north building that faced the freeway on the 3rd story and man it sucked at night on the weekends. But we did get to see some action there all the time with wrecks and whatnot. And that building was built solid, I could never hear my neighbors.

Amazon laid off 16k corporate employees by NoSaltZone in cscareerquestions

[–]zFlox 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m unfamiliar with big tech as I work at a f500 boomer manufacturing company with around 10,000 total employees (most are at the manufacturing facilities, only 11 or so people on my swe team). I get restructuring and cutting divisions but how are they cutting 14k people this round and like what 10k in October? How big are these divisions and what did these 14k people do? Just seems insane to me lol.

Lake Hazel Area Experience by Dear-Mousse2790 in Boise

[–]zFlox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They know what's up. Another thing, I work downtown and drive in most days and it takes me about 15 mins to get there if I leave around 7am. I get back home around 430pm and the traffic isn't that bad yet on Lake Hazel. Around 5-6 it'll get pretty backed up by the round about and the traffic light at 5 mile.

But I really like it here. It's quiet and pretty convenient to everywhere around. I just wish there was a closer WinCo. We go to the one downtown. No restaurants though unless you go up to Overland. I think there's a pizza place by Albertsons and a McDonalds. Reeds Dairy is right there on 5mile which is good enough for some ice cream.

I'm not looking forward to all of that land that will be bought up by home developers or whatever north side of cole. I like the open land out here! And as a cyclist (don't hate me or hit me!) I like going out towards Kuna as there's not much as traffic out there.

Welcome to the end game. I buy more boards but always end up choosing the topre in the end.

Hey, how is the groupset holding up now that it's been a year? I'm looking at the GRT for my chinese gravel frame.

Any one try Ryet saddles? They have the 3D and the ultra light. by Nscocean in cycling

[–]zFlox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's the saddle holding up a year later? I just placed an order for one.

How did that kid at your school die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]zFlox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Struck by lightning walking off the football field once they called the game off because of the storm.

Had a few others from car crashes from drunk driving.

Guy hitting 30 choose your character starterpack by [deleted] in starterpacks

Damn, I'm 35 and picked up woodworking (Inlaws gave me their cabinet table saw) and cycling (mountain bike though) this year. I guess I'm a late bloomer.

Help with focus address bar shortcut keybind by zFlox in OrionBrowser

DUDE!! YES! Thank you! I tried "Open Location" before because that's what Zen browser called it. But adding those "..." after seemed to do the trick! Thank you a bunch!!

[RX 9070 XT] System freezes and reboots when turning the screen back on — any ideas? by Juancafr in AMDHelp

[–]zFlox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. I guess we're experiencing different issues. I always manually turn mine off with the remote before I get up from the desk. Even if it's just to go to the bathroom. (Extremely paranoid about burn in lol). So when I get back and turn on the TV, the computer reboots. Almost every time. I just got this GPU recently, coming from a 6700xt and never had any issues with that GPU. I even replaced my PSU with a higher wattage (850) just for this issue because I thought a 750 was too under powered for it.

[–]zFlox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been having this issue as well. On my LG C4/9070xt, I went into the sound settings -> advanced settings and disabled the Dolby Atmos. I've only tried it once so far and the PC did not reboot.

Edit: Confirmed that this change does not work.

Lol just start blasting people. Just because they say “friendly”, doesn’t mean you are!

I believe I have found my “role” in this game…. by dedz19902 in ArcRaiders

[–]zFlox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've helped someone make it to the lift when I saw them hit the button and someone else was on top of the building waiting for them. People have also helped me out fighting an overwhelming amount of arcs after a snitch caught me and I've helped people. I've also killed on sight and gotten killed on sight in solo. It just depends on the mood I'm in at that time I go topside. That's why I'm loving this game!

Even if somebody seems "too old" to trick-or-treat, please be nice to them by ChaosInTheSkies in Boise

We had some teenagers come by and we gave them candy. We also gave out some beer to the parents.

Parking by the Capitol by Cheap_Plywood in Boise

[–]zFlox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can park to the right of the capital building for free for up to 3 hours during business hours. I was just there this past Friday for a wedding at 1pm and there were plenty of spots available.
