I find it kind of funny to look at a satellite image of the cloud cover right next to a path of totality for the eclipse.

Looks like Cleveland area, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine are the only ones that will be able to see it.

I did a ton of googling for our particular make and model (Kia Sportage). - It will only disable if the car gets put in park. While you're driving, it will continue to go with no alert. If you put it in park, it will turn on a loud annoying sound (I know this sound from getting out to check my mail ...

I think had I stopped 20 minutes from home when my kid asked for a potty break, it would have sucked worse because I would have been stuck there with no way to get back home.

So no, my situation didn't suck worse than that, but certainly had the potential to.

I, for one, do not give a sh*t.

So does the car stop when the fob is too far away to pickup? With it being on the roof, I guess the car thought the fob was in the car so it drove. Once it fell off, nothing happened until I put it in park. Then it yelled at me that the key wasn’t in the car. Had I stopped somewhere on the way home...

Who has two thumbs and after leaving his sisters wedding and putting his sleeping daughter into her car seat put the key fob on top of the car and drove off, heard something (key fob) fall off the car and thought “huh… a branch must have hit my roof”… This guy. The house key and mailbox key was on i...

Mork, please report back the state of the bathrooms upon arrival. K thnx.

Starting to enjoy RDR2... At first I was hating it. The controls are weird and the story was moving at a snail's pace. But it's getting better now that I'm starting to figure out the game controls.

Well, it seems we know a Democrat will win the Presidential election of 2040 as well.

You say that like there'll be an election in 2040. Everyone knows 2024 is the end of American democracy as we know it!

The eclipse one is the best considering scientists knew it was coming forever ago.

I didn't feel it at my apartment but people in the lab only a few miles away did when I was on a call with them. So weird. One hit PSU my first year of grad school. I was teaching on the 5th floor of an old building. My labmates were in a brand spanking new building in the basement (lots of vibrati...

You're in the Philly area, right?

I'm seeing on twitter, NY folks felt one.

We had someone that was repeatedly not flushing in ours. Eventually someone sent out an "I DON'T KNOW WHO'S DOING IT, BUT IT NEEDS TO STOP!" E-mail.

They closed with "Just remember fellas, a royal flush beats a full house."

There has been minimal pushback so far, so why stop? Accomplish your goal of Palestinian elimination while you can…

0-1 in their last 1 game... this team stinks.

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/chef-jose-andres-says-israel-targeted-his-aid-workers-systematically-car-by-car-2024-04-03/ I did initially think that the attack on World Central Kitchen had to have been an accident or some sort of mistake, but according to Jose Andres, even though they di...

Nah, a small local one here near Bellefonte.

If you're worried about having access to a local bank, if you're able to, join a local credit union. You'd get better loan rates through one, and if you needed a large amount of cash, you'd be able to transfer between the new one and the CU. That's what we've been doing for as long as I can remembe...

Ah, I have virtual wallet with performance spend? Or at least that's what my account says. Maybe we'll just apply for the high yield guy and stick with PNC. A lot less work that way.

I have no idea... a standard one?

Any of yinz use SoFi for your banking? Right now we use PNC. We get nothing on checking and like 0.01% APY for savings. I hadn't really thought about it because having PNC has been convenient for us due to having branches right here in town, but those are slowly dying and going to all ATM only branc...

Be aware that snowdrops will multiply and become borderline invasive.

Good to know. We'll just plant white crocuses in their place.

We better be getting sh*tloads of May flowers... this weather blows.

Luckily next week is looking decent enough.
