Watching on MLB Network in Florida. I told my wife, I swear I just heard someone in the crowd yell "hit it for jimothy" (she's obsessed) and then I see this shot of some fans. Lol

Jimothy is taking over the world and is prized from coast to coast I assure you!

Got laid off, tried my best to find a job for a few months and got something out of state.

Now I'm day drinking because I'm leaving.

I love:
- You bastards
- May be everyone else
- St Rat
- Jimothy
- Again, you bastards.
- The weather

I hate that I can't stay. Hate that I leave.

Sigh

Edit: I failed you all. I didn't include Dick's. I love Dick's!

Edit 2: Now I'm tearing about teriyaki. Wtf

90 degrees in Seattle is miserable

What is going on with this

Guessing this is some sort of Seafair thing? What is it?

Before moving to Washington, we would get gorgeous rainbow skies at sunset (AZ, TX). But they were always the result of dust aloft warm, windy skies. I noted how nice the sky looked this evening, how it reminded me of summers before we moved (heat, haze, etc.), but then I had to remind myself of our new geography. Innocuous dust? Not so much. First full year of observing weather patterns here...and the effects of forest fires directly.

I know some years have been terrible via news outlets, but I wanted community opinion on whether the haze/smoke at this level is truly standard in summer or just a result of where larger fires are blowing currently.

The World Cup is over. Make it stop.

Ferry, we love Ferry.

Thought this was too cool not to share. Go lil' salmon!

Which spot does this make you think of?

Platinum has almost a full monopoly on lots around the tourism core and many other lots throughout the city. Their advertised rates are extortionate enough as they are, and they’re charging in some cases 50% more than advertised. While I usually use transit when I go downtown sometimes I have to take the car. And many others are parking downtown as well. Platinum should be held accountable for their blatant dishonesty.

Found decent amount of money on a sidewalk - Seattle/WA

Hi y'all. Yesterday, on a walk around Central District with my bf, we found a decent amount of money on a sidewalk.

We thought of giving it to the police, but first maybe asking around reddit to see if by any chance whoever lost this money is a redditor and is looking for it.

If it's yours, send me a message with the information of how much money it is and how the money is tied together. These are very specific information, so I'll know if you are the real owner of this.

PS: sorry to be so cryptic, but I swear we just want to give it back to the owner without running the risk of giving it to the police and the officers just splitting the money between themselves. I also posted on r/LostandFound and some folks told me to: look for the owner on Facebook, look for the owner on the Neighbor app (? I never heard of it, is it popular here in Seattle?), give it to the police and make a detailed report. We're just afraid that there won't be any kind of accounting in giving it to the police. Any similar experiences with officers? Would we be notified if the owner got their money back?

I take the train semi regularly and it seems more and more the whole thing goes down. Right now there is a power outage so we are just stranded? Living and commuting in Chicago I have never had this amount of issues.

I have a server in Utah. I was getting 10Mbps upload to it. While trying to figure out why, I realized speed tests were also throttled in that region on speedtest.net, although they scored a bit higher (~100Mbps).

I have the 1Gbps internet option.

Called astound. They wanted to send a tech. I declined, and asked that they forward the information to their network engineers. They couldn't do it. So I asked to speak to their supervisor and was hung up on.

So I started to do speed tests on a couple servers I have around the country. Similar issues.

I decided to try solving this myself. Setup a wireguard connection between my server in Utah and my home.

Same issue on wireguard. So I kept changing ports. Finally found one that wasn't throttled and was getting ~900Mbps upload.

So this is just a FYI. If you have Astound 1Gbps internet and you are on a residential connection you're likely being throttled (unless I'm just very unlucky).

Unfortunately speedtest.net is not a good testing option since they removed single threaded testing. I believe it's multithreaded by default now. You want to test single connection speeds to find this issue.

But, you may still notice slower then normal speeds regardless.

This is a long shot. This ring was taken during Covid. If anyone has seen this ring, please let me know. This ring was late Grandmother’s ring. Nana Carol. She passed away from a vicious brain cancer. This ring was the only inheritance I received. I made the mistake to put it on and wear it to work at the Lake WA Institute of Technology in Kirkland WA. I was working there and it was accidentally placed on the bathroom counter on the level of Instruction. The Janitor that was working that night should have found it and turned it in to security. They did not and it’s been missing ever since. Please message me if you have seen this ring.
