We love seeing your creativity, but to allow room in the sub for other Seattle topics please share all Jimothy fan art, memes, and crafts in the comments of this megathread or over in the dedicated Jimothy sub /r/JimothyTheRaccoon/. We are still allowing standalone posts in the sub for brand-new sightings (pictures or videos) and published news articles.

As a quick reminder, if you do post a new sighting, please continue to keep spotting location vague to keep Jimothy safe!

Finally there are two new Jimothy user flairs in the top of the flair list, with a third one to be added later.

This is r/Seattle's weekly post for local businesses and makers (or users who discover them) to share their creations with our users.

This thread will be automatically posted every Saturday morning to help connect r/seattle users with cool local stuff. Types of content encouraged in this thread are:

  • Local businesses (new, running promotions or sales, or just really good ones!)
  • Upcoming events or activities (concerts, festivals, pop-ups, shows)
  • Local artists or creators sharing upcoming shows or releases

Content should be related to businesses or events in the greater Seattle area, and the typical reddit spam rules apply - please ensure you are contributing to the community more than just your own content.

Users who flood these posts with ads, links without context, referral codes, etc. - or who promote without contributing elsewhere will be actioned. Please continue to report actual spam.

We have our rules against spam and self-promotion for hopefully understandable reasons, but we've noticed users responding more positively to local businesses, artists, etc. sharing their content. This is an attempt to bridge the gap, helping users find cool stuff while containing the promotion to a single weekly thread. Please send us a modmail with any suggestions or input you have about the use or abuse of this thread.

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!

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?

Community Astound is throttling traffic, FYI

59 Upvotes

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.

"The sky is really pretty today"

428 Upvotes

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.

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
