There's nothing about it not being allowed on the website, I'm not planning to do anything per se, but I would like to make sure.

I am excited to visit the Great Smoky Mountains. I live in texas rn and it is going to be cool being in a mountainous area for once. What is this sub's thoughts of this town? Or things to know? My internship is cyber related but im a big history guy. Throw me any history lore other people may not know

Looking to find somewhere that can deliver firewood- anyone have suggestions? The only place I found online in a quick search is schedule for January delivery.

Is there any chance the paving will ever be completed? This is unacceptable.

Just moved to Oak Ridge this year and would love to find a local tattoo artist.

I'm very simple with my tattoos. Mostly just single line drawings, no color. However, I would love someone with experience in tattooing pet paw prints and pet memorials if possible.

Thanks!

last night the laundromat i normally go to was full, so i tried the laundromat across the street from the dutchbros (i forget what it’s called)

loaded my clothes and most of my money before seeing 2 cockroaches crawling around inside the display (also i don’t know what all those little specks are, but almost all of the displays had them inside)

i immediately removed my clothing and left.

i’ve been using laundromats from here and in knoxville since 2016 and this was my first time ever seeing roaches in one.

i just wanted to let people know because this is something i would have wanted to know before going there 🥴

Hello! Does anyone have any suggestions for paved walking trails around Oak Ridge? My dog is very old and we used to go on walks every day. He was recently diagnosed with heart failure and can no longer walk so I bought him a dog stroller! We usually went to the Civic Center or the Greenway but both are gravel. I want him to have a smooth ride in his old age! Any suggestions are appreciated!!

Me & my wife are immigrants (legal) and we moved to the Knoxville area. I’m looking for someone to accompany me as the licensed driver for my dmv road test in Oak Ridge. I have a rental car and I only need a 21+ driver to accompany me. Please dm if you’re willing to help out!

I was returning home last night about 11:30 PM and came to the Illinois and Turnpike intersection. There were no road work signs or directions, and when I got close I discovered that all lanes were closed for the repaving work. You couldn't turn left or go straight, and the right turning lanes was the only way to keep going absent a u-turn (no signs or police directing traffic). I turned right towards the high school, and realized they had the entire intersection closed, so assumed I'd have to do my own roundabout. I drove up 50 feet, and did a slow u-turn from the median turning lane before the first red light past Kroger. There was not a car in sight. Once I did, a police officer came running and waving at me, I rolled down my window and before I said a word he yelled "what are you doing, you can't f------ do that, is that how you drive all the time?" First dude, way to be the aggressor off the bat. Second, maybe realize you've got probably the largest intersection in Oak Ridge completely shut down with no signs, and you're too lazy to be out of your car to direct traffic where to go. Third, there's not a "no u-turn" sign, and I believe it's legal to do so from a turning lane. And fourth, maybe realize the amount of traffic and level of caution I observed before cussing me for just trying to get home in a confusing situation. The guy looked like he was maybe 25, so hopefully he calms down and can be a more respectful officer in the future.

Y’all, the parking lot was already full at the Oak Ridge voting location by Kroger when it opened at 10 am. Is it always like this? Been standing in line for 30 minutes.

I collect bones but I don't hunt or kill any animals. I'm not really sure where to look for hunter dumps or bone piles.

Any part-time jobs? Just curious as I am planning ahead for next year. I intend to save the money and put it into savings.

Hey everyone!

I’m new to the world of fine-tuning and training LLMs, and I’m hoping for some in-person guidance. I’ve got Ollama 3.2:1B installed on my desktop, but as a beginner, I’m not sure how to fine-tune it for my needs.

If anyone in the Oak Ridge area (or nearby) has experience and is willing to help me out in person, I’d be really grateful! I’m happy to show my appreciation by offering a modest fee or even some pizza for your time.

Thanks so much for considering!

I’m helping my 82 yr old aunt apply for housing in Roane County. She is retired from K-25 and draws a small pension. I have to show where all of her income is from and need to get a statement of some kind from the pension administrator. What makes this tricky is my aunt is currently in an assisted living and the pension admin was never apprised of her updated address from years gone by - she gets nothing in the mail and I can’t find anything in her records. I am her POA, she is widowed with no children so I’m literally it.

Can someone tell me who the administrator of K-25 pensions is?? TIA.

Not my kitty. I found this by my house today and just want to help get some exposure.

Also they wwre doing it again as late as 2008... https://www.oakridger.com/story/news/local/2008/06/19/lightning-bugs-needed-again/63352828007/

Great vendors and delicious food!

Hiya peeps!

Does anyone know if the "Not Selected" text means that my application was not selected for further interviews?

Just a note that the Vivint/SmartHomePros guys are out.

Didn't appreciate him ambushing me in my driveway after dark.

This sounds like something a pimp would say! 6th District Anderson County Commissioner Mack Daddy - Anthony “Ant” Allen

Dear Oak Ridgers and the greater Anderson County populace. County Commissioners should vote for things that their constituents want, NOT push their views down their throats. Please read this crazy, almost Dr. Seuss-ish drivel. Then decide if this man sounds stable enough to represent you in your county! Remember - You aren’t smart enough to make your own decisions, let Anthony Allen - 6th District EMBARRASSMENT make them for you!

I may have an opportunity at Y12 and wanted to see what people think about working there (how's the culture, does it take forever to get in/out of the lot/buildings, etc). Can anyone compare the work culture to ORNL?
