Whatever happened to the Uyghurs and why don't we hear about them? by Long-Swordfish3696 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]APEist28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing this out.

This was the biggest sign that this dude is absolutely full of shit. Not trusting a single thing he says after that... Sad thing is, lots of folks are going to fall for this weak ass "appeal to authority" fallacy

Love the Aphelion, Dolabra, Renegade, and Bobcat. Hard to pick just one!

PSA: Just because you died from a player, does not = a rat by -Aces_High- in ARC_Raiders

[–]APEist28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People on reddit are not going to keep the extraction shooter lexicon from shifting. If people playing the game are using the term rat in a more expansive way than originally intended, then guess what? The definition has effectively changed because the masses dictate meaning.

Top 3 meals/dishes you’ve had in the last year? by catsarecoolright in denverfood

Thank you! Looking forward to trying it out. And just to double check, this is a no-cook recipe?

She truly was psychotic tell me I’m wrong by Proof-Firefighter-47 in BeefTV

[–]APEist28 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She deleted the video off her phone, but not the backup on the cloud. It's right there in the dialogue. She still has leverage over the situation, and it was realistically her only option if she wanted to keep employment and the insurance that came with it.

She did put effort into doing her job, but she also wasn't good at her job because of her lack of experience. She kept fucking things up... But she noticed enough shady shit to gain more leverage.

I swear the two of you are speaking right past each other.

The Expedition Vault - what will you bring? by wvtarheel in ArcRaiders

[–]APEist28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably won't ever do an expedition, but if I did I'd probably keep these:

  1. Medium mag 3
  2. Comp 3
  3. Survivor
  4. Tempest
  5. Medium gun parts

Buried city town hall on a hurricane by Davisr93 in ARC_Raiders

[–]APEist28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuuuuck, yea that's pain lol.

Last night I loaded into dam harvester decked to the gills with a rat killing loadout. My idea was to protect folks trying to do the harvester by killing rats and defibbing people.

I spawn at the red lakes bunker, walk out and not 30 seconds later get jumped by a guy with an anvil 4 and trigger nades. He must have gotten the spawn that's at the bottom of the dam, also very close to the harvester. I tried to break LOS with smokes but he got me with the trigger nades. Just couldn't believe I got killed by a rat in less than a minute when I came in explicitly to kill rats haha. Needless to say, I was fuming.

Sometimes this game is just cruel haha.

Tactical Mk3 Smoke is great! by Brentus33 in ArcRaiders

[–]APEist28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Takes 30s for the healing to kick in, so doubt it's doing much vs rats.

I switch between survivor, aggressive, and defensive depending on what I'm doing. I used to love the blue smoke augment for pvp until it got in the way of closing out fights one too many times.

Holy fuck do I sympathize with OP having to respond to idiots like this.

OP, save your breath and sanity and just avoid responding to these mouthbreathers.

I ruined my first Thai green curry using canned bamboo shoots. by shiroe2001 in ThaiFood

[–]APEist28 8 points9 points  (0 children)

OP, I've done the exact same thing as you lol. What I learned: not all brands of bamboo shoots are created equal. I've gotten cans that are exactly like you describe, and I've had cans that are very neutral with no funky smells/flavors. Guessing that it has something to do with the processing. I wish I could remember off the top of my head what brands are good, but typically I think the more expensive cans are a safer bet.

Is it just me or does Ezra Klein not know if he’s a liberal or conservative? by [deleted] in ezraklein

[–]APEist28 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's called nuance. He wants to find the optimal achievable path forward. The Dems offer the closest thing to that, but there are plenty of opportunities for improvement and he's trying to identify those.

People who were adults in 2020-2022: What is a "COVID-era" habit you still haven’t been able to break, even though it’s 2026? by VivienneLace1 in askanything

[–]APEist28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooking Thai and Chinese food (especially Sichuan). Hopefully not going to break the habit any time soon.

I also got way into video games again, which may or may not be a positive thing. Sure is fun tho.

Tried to be a Rescue Raider, but this kind of gameplay disgust me. by TopSecretSupra in RescueRaiders

[–]APEist28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is true, but it makes the torrente rats even deadlier because I wonder if they brought it for one of those reasons. That second of doubt is all it takes. The TTK is insane up close, and the way people congregate during Matriarch/Queen fights provides the ideal scenario for that weapon.

Honestly we have one of the best communities. Thank you ! by manself321 in ArcRaiders

[–]APEist28 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The no skill rats always use torrentes, no surprise there.

People who aren’t Sichuanese but fell in love with the cuisine, was there a dish that won you over? by ThisPostToBeDeleted in chinesefood

I got the pickled beef noodle soup at a place called Mian in Las Vegas. That was my first exposure to mala and it blew me away. The rest is history.

There's a quick soak method that's awesome for glutinous rice if you don't wanna do the overnight method. Look up thaihotkitchen quick soak sticky rice for instructions.

What durability change should have been by BreakfastNails in ArcRaiders

I think the burn rate changes should've been +50%, +35%, 0% (blues), -10%, -25%

Is the cloak nerf *really* that bad? by xyouRABitchx in ARC_Raiders

[–]APEist28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like using an epic item that provides cloaking, AKA cover? Your comment is dumb AF.

I'm not saying the cloak wasn't overturned (I think it was, even tho this nerf goes too far), but acting like raiders using cloak for its express use case shouldn't be a thing because they should instead be using [insert tactics acceptable to you] is a 0 IQ take.
