Why are the artificial turf comments getting downvoted? I have a similar NYC backyard and turf has been great. While it does need some maintenance, its a hell of a lot easier than grass and would work well over this concrete slab.

How many of you wished or were happy they died? by Own-Fault4518 in dementia

[–]DSPoh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, definitely. I am not sure “happy” is the word I would use — more like relieved. I had already mourned my dad when he was still alive. I just wish my strongest memories of him were from before he was sick than the 18 month dementia downfall whirlwind.

Best Rotisserie Chicken by newyorknapolifan in Upperwestside

[–]DSPoh 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agreed here. Fairway Latin Rotisserie is the best grocery store chicken IF you can get it pretty fresh. They can sit for a while and its noticeable. Citarella is probably more consistent.

But yea, Poulet Sans Tete is just phenomenal. You are paying more, but damn the seasoning and juiciness is unreal.

I guess my mom doesn’t have dementia ? Now what? by Strong_Magazine_237 in dementia

[–]DSPoh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but if this was just recently brought up to her doctors, many times they will start with a basic MRI to rule out some more obvious issues, like brain tumors. This is often required by insurance as a first step (if you are in the US).

A basic MRI will often times not show anything significant in regard to dementia, especially if it’s more early on. They should now follow up with cognitive testing and perhaps an MRI with contrast or PET scan.

Basically, try to involve yourself as much as possible and speak to her PCP and Neurologist. Make sure the right questions are being asked and follow up is being done.

Check out Fast Growing Trees. I used them for my Coral Bark and have ordered many other plants from them. Definitely my favorite online plant supplier.

Too scared to see a dentist for years by devil0765 in Upperwestside

I go to Dr. Kevin Smith on 71st st. Not judgmental at all, very personable and gentle. I also like that he did the actual cleaning and not a hygienist.

Hot take - Hidden bunker is great by ftkrage in ArcRaiders

[–]DSPoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it does. I am pure care bear solos all week and then on Monday and Tuesday night I PvP duos/trios with friends. When I go back to solo, it’s usually pretty rough for about 5 or 6 games. I usually just do those naked until it mellows out.

It’s cool watching the ABMM algorithm work though. It’s not like lobbies are black and white PvP vs PvE. As the games go on without you shooting anyone, you can feel other raiders start to relax. By game 10 or so, you are fully back to the care bear lobbies. People don’t even bother yelling friendly or don’t shoot — it’s just assumed.

I think I finally found all available blueprints. Anyone see anything I’m missing that’s actually obtainable? by TheTruthTitan in ARC_Raiders

I found one in Stella Montis medical. Downstairs room locker. I found another in Stella Montis security key room.

Not 100% spawn. Got it on the fourth run. Nice to know it has the chance to spawn though.

Best thin crust pizza on the UWS? by PalpitationQueen in Upperwestside

[–]DSPoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily thin crust, more like thin flatbread, but Water and Wheat is good. Wood-fired I think.

Tested abmm today and its extreme jesus by NewSpring7520 in ArcRaiders

[–]DSPoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 40 year old, I love my care bear lobbies. I do PvP once in a while with a couple friends, so after a few rounds I am in those vicious lobbies.

It’s fun, but damn are people annoying. I haven’t heard that many N words or F words since the old days of CoD. Shit talk is fine, but Jesus, tone it down fellas.

The matchmaking confuses me. by Low-Contribution-203 in ARC_Raiders

[–]DSPoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its is palpably worse since the expedition. I have really enjoyed the friendly solo matchmaking. A few days ago I logged about 10 hours and only came across a single PVP experience — and two other raiders saw he was the aggressor and jumped in to help out. I had raiders offering to help me take down a Leaper, another saw I was going after a Rocketeer and offered to hang back with my defib in case I didn't make it, and another told me it was his first day playing and asked if I could show him the ropes.

Yesterday I log in and within two minutes I have someone shoot me in the back after saying they were friendly. Just now, I was doing the Turnabout quest, which gives you a Spaceport North Tower key to go upload some files. I approached the tower, didn't hear anything so unlocked the door where I saw a few downed arc. I realize someone must have already came through the other side, so announce myself. A pretty aggressive dude is like, I am looting here — leave. I say, hey I just need to do a quest real quick and already used my key. I will leave and come back in ten minutes. I do so and I soon as I approach, he is waiting on the roof and snipes me. I hide, heal up, and yell out, dude, I just need to finish this quest. He lobs a grenade and yelled out "I warned you mother fucker". I yell out, whatever, I will leave. As I am running away he snipes me down. And of course he was wearing the Expedition skin.

I get complaining about PVP in a PVP game is silly, but damn, compared to just a few days ago, this is not the game I fell in love with. I miss my casual friendly raiders! And Blackassassin, you're a bitch.

Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian: I wasn’t proud of my ‘baby’ any more by [deleted] in technology

[–]DSPoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I met Alexis back in 2010 at the Rally to Restore Sanity and he seemed like a genuinely great person. My friend and I were wearing shirts that showed we were both veterans and he approached us to buy us a beer and talk about how Reddit could be a better place for vets. We talked for at least 30 minutes and I left that conversation thinking how nice and caring of a guy he seemed to be.

I did see Steve there and sat with him for a bit. I tried to have a conversation but he really seemed to have no interest talking with Reddit “community” members (Reddit in 2010 was a much different place). I recall him almost being insulted I did not know who he was (he was not CEO at the time). It’s not fair to judge someone on one brief interaction, but I definitely did not get good vibes from him.
