That is fucking creepy. Facebook made a friend suggestion to me - Amoxy Mar 2, 21:37 6
- Yeah, there's an issue with their discovery methods where they'll recommend a therapist or a therapist's other clients to each other. - Beryllium Mar 2, 21:45 2
  - It would be revealing just how invasive it is IF there are no mutual friends -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 2, 22:20 1
    - Person A becomes a client of Person B. Person B puts Person A's contact info in their addressbook. Facebook suggests they become friends. - Beryllium Mar 2, 22:23

REmember that AMTRAK train stuck in the snow for 40 hours? On the return the train got stuck in Portland for awhile due to a fire... -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 2, 20:55
STIS: I bought a laptop in January at Costco, but think I'm going to take it back and exchange it. - JaxSean Mar 2, 19:50 10
- They'll take back a laptop? I mean, I can tell you how to DBAN the hard drive but they might want it restored to factory settings. - Mop Mar 2, 20:18 7
  - I think he could DBAN it, all they will want to see is it will boot still. - Karl_S Mar 2, 21:02 3
    - I just went with the reset method. I didn't have much of anything on there yet, anyway. - JaxSean Mar 2, 22:36 2
      - probably, you could always reset the passwords for those services if you wanted -- nm - Karl_S Mar 2, 22:57 1
        
        Hmm good point -- nm - JaxSean Mar 2, 22:59
  - Pretty sure they take back anything for 90 days. - JaxSean Mar 2, 20:30
  - Do laptops still do that thing where an invisible HD partition contains the restore volume? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 2, 20:26 1
    - I think there may be a separate partition with the OS installer on it. If that’s the case, DBAN would do the trick and then simply factory reset. -- nm - Mop Mar 2, 21:33
- Call Costco and ask if they can wipe it in front of you during the return? IF you want to trust their in store tech people's skills. -- nm - peglegpete Mar 2, 19:54 1

I've never had a shamrock shake. Is it mint? -- nm - ty97 Mar 2, 19:02 16
- It is and it's not very good either. You'd be better off going to a real ice cream shop and getting a mint shake there. - Krusty Mar 3, 05:13
- you also need to try a McLeprechaun shake, too - peglegpete Mar 2, 19:46
- I honestly think it tastes like Mint Chocolate Chip soft serve ice cream - but remove all chocolate chips. - JaxSean Mar 2, 19:33
- More like what somebody that has never tasted mint but had it described to them would think mint tasted like. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Mar 2, 19:20 2
  - Basically cough medicine mint. Ben and Jerry's mint cookie is equally bad with their mint flavoring. - Krusty Mar 3, 05:15
  - So it’s like The Matrix version of Tasty Wheat? -- nm - Qale Mar 2, 19:24
- I don't think I've had one in, like, a year -- nm - zunk xometimes Mar 2, 19:18

  - Leprechauns and happiness, Pippy. HAPPINESS -- nm - JaxSean Mar 2, 19:20 1

    - Are they running out of ways to drive away customers? I used to do almost all my shopping there, now - Meg Mar 2, 18:59 3
      - How many people use more than one card? more than one type of card? - zeitgeist Mar 2, 19:19
      - visa charges them a rate they think is too hi. they have already dropped visa in a lot of the country. -- nm - peglegpete Mar 2, 19:04 1
        
        I'm used to small businesses not taking Amex. And now Costco only accepts Visa. I have one but prefer to use MCard and Amex because - airmiles. -- nm - Meg Mar 2, 19:22
    - Uh oh. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 2, 18:14
  - Someone at school mentioned something about it (someone texted her) but I didn’t realize it was your Kroger! -- nm - kelly Mar 2, 17:21
