yeah mine gets super slow to actuate when the batteries are low. I change it before each winter.

if there is a battery failure, you can use a 9V battery to provide temporary power to the lock. so I keep a couple in the garage behind another electronic lock. and if that fails, I'll borrow a 9V battery from a neighbour

On September 10, 2023, Boebert and a male companion were removed by security staff from a performance of the musical Beetlejuice in a theater in Denver, Colorado, after she and her companion caused a disturbance by vaping, singing, recording the performance, and groping each other.[101][261][262] Boebert initially denied having vaped as well as causing a disturbance, writing on social media that she pleaded "guilty to laughing and singing too loud!" After surveillance video footage of the incident was released, she apologized for "[falling] short of her values" and vaping. She said that "she had previously denied it only because she 'did not recall' having done so".[263][261][264] The video also showed Boebert's companion fondling her breasts and Boebert caressing his genitalia while they were in their seats.[263][264] Months later, Boebert described the incident as a "very private moment" that the media had broadcast.[265][266]

electronic lock with a code. so much better than needing to bother with keys

the only keys I need to deal with in my life are car, mail box, and heavy duty bike locks. it's great.

ah, but you have to account for the opportunity cost of socialization that you do want.

the event itself now becomes socializing, as you said, which means you don't have to go socialize on another separate occasion. and because this is a defined task, you can say "well we're done here" and cut it off.

I'm an introvert, but I still like to spend time with friends in limited amounts. I would much rather somebody help me with a task for an hour or two than go hang around with no defined task for a couple hours. I like having something to do

seconding what the other person said. just go hang out in public places, preferably ones where you can do something and have a natural reason to approach people.

it isn't going to happen immediately. but eventually you will strike up conversations with people, and some of those will be good conversations, and some of those will be with people you like, and some of those will be with people who like you. and then you gotta actually get their contact info or plan to meet up again, maybe doing other things.

that's alright, that's what drivers with reverse cameras do as well, just stare at it and then act all surprised when I slap their car because they almost backed into me while I was out of view of their camera

I strongly dislike all these driver aids being standard. it seems to just make dumber drivers.

yes, and being able to use them for everyday tasks like going to brunch, groceries, bar, etc is exactly why I have multiple, including ones I wouldn't be too upset about losing

no I haven't fixed the cable on the first car. just disengaged the parking brake so I can't pull on it and seize it up again lol

yeah, never going to watch that. I used a free trial of Prime to buy a couple things I couldn't get elsewhere on time for a decent price, and tried to watch a few things on Prime Video. it was terrible. not as bad as Sportsnet, but they just don't make it user friendly. I didn't even bother to use it for watching stuff, I just went back to sailing

a long time ago, a new coworker told me he listened to it. I checked out a few episodes. they were shit and made me question the coworker. I searched for episodes with guests I'd be interested in. those episodes were also shit.

my opinion of that coworker was definitely strongly affected by how they regularly listened to Joe Rogan. that, and the fact that their work kind of sucked
