    Same name, different owners: AC opens new grocery store in Utqiaġvik

    Jump

  • When I was there 6 years ago, it was $10 or $12 for a gallon of Costco branded milk.

    At the airport, I watched a family of four pickup their checked baggage: a package of Costco toilet paper, a package of Costco paper towels, and two black and yellow totes with other groceries in it.

    The town was awesome, I'd love to go back.

  • "get professional help"; the help be like:

  • I feel you. It's super frustrating. Don't give up looking though!

    Ask some of your friends who have therapists for help. Therapists also seem to know each other, so a friend's therapist could give a recommendation for someone who might be able to help.

  • How should I properly document my homelab?

  • I've got a bunch of notes in Trilium.

    I have a note for each service with the docker compose file, notes on backups, any weirdness with the setup, and when I update each service. I use Trilium as a crappy version control for the compose file.

    I also have a note for the initial setup of my server (mostly setting up docker, setting up mergerfs and snapraid).

    Other than that, I have one note for each device for my setup. (Wifi AP, OPNsense router, switch, etc) That I populate with random crap I might need to know later.

  • I've never seen an ad on my car's screen. My brother's car from 2013 has a backup camera, and that car literally cannot communicate to any server that could serve ads.

    If car companies wanted to put ads on screens, they wouldn't need an excuse to put in a screen, they'd just do it. But they wouldn't do that, because ads are a safety hazard and they'd have their pants sued off. I can't even connect a new Bluetooth device to my car (pressing 1 button) unless the parking brake is applied. Stellantis is in hot water for their braindead attempt at "ads" in their cars, and that's just a pop-up that shows up when the car is stopped.

    Not even Google maps advertises to me when I use Android Auto, and ads are Google's thing

  • I don't think I've ever seen my mom cry, except for the one time she dropped a metal hanger in her eye, and at my grandpa's funeral (though she claims she cries all the time). I've seen my dad cry a decent amount. My grandma bottles more than a winery. My grandpa cried on occasion. We're backwards from the stereotype. It's weird.

    What's something which you pay more than "it's worth" for the sake of good quality/experience?

    Jump

  • I wish I could get symmetrical gigabit. I'm stuck with Comcrap: gigabit down, 40 MBPS up with a datacap. My apartment complex has a deal with Comcrap, even though they just installed fiber down the street from us.

    Why is bicycle riding so controversial in America?

    Jump

  • The only controversies I've seen regarding bikes I've seen as a city dwelling American, are bikes not following the rules of the road.

    People get upset when bikes run red lights/stop signs, ride the wrong way on streets or paths, or go way too fast on shared pedestrian paths, especially if they don't have a bell or horn of some kind.

    E bikes get hate because they allow people to do 25 to 40 mph on pedestrian paths (where the speed limit is half of that or less). Where I live, lane splitting for motorcyclists is not legal, but E bikes do it relatively frequently. Motorists are not expecting a tiny, silent vehicle to go flying past their door at 30 mph when they're stopped. And for some reason, most E bikes I've personally seen riding at night have no lights of any kind. I don't want to hit someone in my car, and I don't want to be hit by someone as a pedestrian, and it's a hell of a lot harder to prevent that when you can't see them.

    I ride my bike on shared use paths and the street with lights and a bell. I follow the rules of the road, and I've never had any issues.

  • It's surprising to me how much rougher my gear changes are when I haven't had enough sleep. I feel just as awake, I'm just bad at it.

  • Was 3.5 million dead in the Holodomor not enough for you? Holy shit. Touch grass.

  • What old movies hold up because of a lack of special effects or because clever use of effects?

    Jump

  • Gotta agree with this. The only effect that doesn't look 100% real is when the space stewardess walks up the walls to deliver food to the cockpit of Aries moon lander. Everything else looks amazing.

    And don't watch it in 480p on a phone screen. If you can, get yourself the 4K Blu-Ray version (the copy I ripped is 72 gigabytes. Yes it's worth it).
