I always thought it would be great if there was a rom you could flash that just opens every up on an old phone so you could use them as project computers.
How many of us have a drawer full of old phones that we keep with the intention to one day use for something?
I’ll try to keep this short. I eat out too much.
On the east side: kinda tropical, de nada and Sawyer are good laid back food spots. Justines is a great French spot with a setting you can’t beat. Bufalina has excellent pizza and wine… Their pasta is delicious but portions don’t justify the cost. Cenote is my go to breakfast spot. If you like divey spots, the Grackle, Violet Crown and the liberty are all great. I think East Side King still has a truck at Liberty too. Grackle just got Asador tacos… That mushroom taco is absurd.
South Congress area: June’s is a nice little wine bar. Joanne’s and the Austin motel have good food and a fun pool.
Near the lake (not sure what to call these areas): carpenters hall has a good menu and fun pool parties. Pecan Square is a great date night/celebration spot… don’t sleep on the crab salad. Fresas is casual Mexican that’s elevated without ruining the simple beauty of Mexican cuisine.
I can keep going, but that’s probably more than enough. Last suggestion I’ll give, if you like live music if any kind, go to Sahara Lounge on a Saturday night. The house band is unbeatable.
Now that I take pics I see the latch side is leaning, which makes sense, since the whole fence is probably settling and pulling it.
Now that I posted these I realize that latch side post is leaning. There’s a whole fence on that side, so I wonder if it’s getting pulled by the others settling.
Adding photos
Yes, wooden posts set in cement. Not sure how deep, because it was new construction, so I didn’t do it. It seems weird that it’s still settling, but we have definitely been having insane weather swings since it was built, that we don’t normally get.
Austin IS prone to foundation issues because something about our soul isn’t great… I’m in an area that isn’t too bad, but definitely has some issues.
It does sound like we’re going to have to reset those posts deeper.
Theyre all wooden posts, set in cement. I don’t know how deep though… We hired someone to do it. They are definitely moving vertically, but I don’t think there’s any wobble from side to side… The latch is locking, and it’s about two inches tall, but it is always in line in the y axis, it just goes off up and down. Not sure if it’s both sides moving, but I know the gate is now also hitting the cement holding the opposite post.
Pics would help for sure, I’ll get some tomorrow.
Nothing to add, but this is a wildly distopian thread.
I’m in Austin Texas. We got this guy around mid spring and it was bright pink. We’ve tried full direct light, bright indirect, half and half, putting it indoor and outdoor. It’s pretty much all green now. How do we get that pink back?
Since I’ve begun “trying” in the kitchen, I eat way healthier than ever before, and most of my meals are better and cheaper than restaurant equivalents.
Is Donut Media on Lemmy yet?
Anyone have the backstory here?
$180,00 to live like an 1800s settler, on the surface of the sun. Not a bad deal.
Why be frustrated? This person just saved you a boring evening.
It has gotten noticeably better in a super short period. Rest my dude, you’ve earned it.
This is probably two thirds of the vehicles I see in Austin… which probably has the worst drivers of any city I’ve lived in.
I think we got to a point in corporate comms where everyone decided we have to post at a regular interval, even when there’s nothing interesting happening.
This feela like a good time to revaluate what we do on social. I have thought about standing up an instance, but realistically we have our internal Teams that employees use… So they wouldn’t use it, and I can’t imagine myself subscribing to a bunch of company instances, so it seems like it’s an effort for nobody.
That said we often put on community events like hackathons. I think situations like that are perfect for posting on our cyber security servers.
Less white noise trash is better.
So… I’m using Connect on Android, but I just learned I can swipe here too, so thanks.
I was recently asked by my employer if we should move our social media efforts to fediverse and my recommendation was that this community it’s both too small and also would be hostile (rightly) to corporate empty posting.
As soon as threads has a web interface that’s usable I will be starting up there…
You put your recycling in the blue can, compost in the green can and your corporate garbage on Meta.
Was the cup holding the canned air a failed print you just used as a shallow cup?
