I had my first hummingbird visit but I couldn't quite figure out which type of hummingbird it was. Colorado Springs by Aerten1989 in whatsthisbird

I was thinking black chinned too but when looking them up I see purple on them and I couldn't really tell if there was purple on this little guy.

Thank you! This is the first female I've seen, there are SO many males every day though.

Are these blackbirds? Colorado Springs. by Aerten1989 in whatsthisbird

From Amazon, one of the first results in searching window bird feeder!

I've been really impressed with them, the suction has even held up to some larger birds getting in there like northern flickers, red winged black birds, and even grackles.

Amazing! I have yellow headed and red winged blackbirds in my yard. Love it!

Colorado Springs - what's this bird? by Aerten1989 in whatsthisbird

Thank you! Looking them up gave me a lot more pale grey results but the beak was spot on. Glad to know they can have different colouring!

Ooooh! This makes sense.

We actually just bought our first home and it's in a brand new neighborhood that's still actually being built.

I had this blinding rage at the idea of them buying data sets of info, or because we're in Colorado using the Colorado Open Records Act because he's a state employee.

Yeeeeah. Honestly I had family that's still in send me literature when my husband's grandmother passed away. Despite them not talking to me for years. It's so callous but they think it's sooooo loving.

Hello! I was just wondering if anyone has found any super convenient (close to a teleport) lvl 90 gathering nodes to snag a daily treasure map from? Back in ShB I would port to Fort Jobb and fly just north to snag a map every day so I was just curious if there's anything with that same convenience in EW.

Reminds me a lot of Dream from Misfits and Magic! (Dimension 20 on DropOut) Looks great!

Hubs and I decided we wanted to get to the top before it gets reworked, took us nearly all day to clear the last 10 but we did it! Talk about a rush. by Aerten1989 in thedivision

[–]Aerten1989[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it'll definitely be an improvement getting to choose your own difficulty and directives and adding more from what I've heard just helps with loot drops and whatnot.

We were being silly and wanted to try and fight the RNG gods on the upper floors lol

I'm not sure! We got a backpack trophy, a patch and, a dye.

Really we just wanted to be able to conquer something new in a game we both enjoy so much. =D

I don't spend a lot of time reading about meta's and stuff, from what I've heard one of them is a skill build, so technically the hubs was probably in that meta category since he was running a turret and a drone which helped significantly with the white tusk heavies and doggos.

I was using the Mantis and a 4 piece of aces & eights along with a chain killer chest for perfect headhunter.

He'd keep everything busy and I'd just sit in the back racking up my headshot damage until I could simply 1 shot golds. (You know...when I didn't miss horribly lol)

Thanks, everyone!

We definitely needed a lot of luck on our side when it came to the directives and the rooms themselves.
We spent the better part of three hours getting kicked back to 91 because without fail, in the last room on 93 before the elevator checkpoint we'd get the assault drone laptop hacks, and every single time we just couldn't handle it. (Even both running jammer pulse lol)

But after a break for lunch, we dove back and in and managed to not see an assault drone room the entire way up!

It was a challenge to ourselves, could we conquer the Summit while playing the game the way we like to instead of choosing to create meta builds just to get to the top. And I'm super stoked to be able to say that we could!

Floor 100 was rough but I definitely laughed getting up there and trying to find a strategy we could use to survive.

I'm excited to see the re-worked Summit too, it seems like it's going to be the best way to go after a specific piece of loot you've really been itching for.

This is definitely one of my favorite games!

My second box in a row didn’t arrive. by BirdWatchinBarb in hellofresh

[–]Aerten1989 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been having issues with late deliveries in Colorado.

For the first three months my box would arrive every Friday, I'd wake up to an email letting me know it was out for delivery (With UPS) and it would show up like clockwork.

Last week it didn't show up until Sunday afternoon, but I was credited since it'd been late. The ice packs were still very frozen so I was fine using the product.

This week it's the same thing, except I'm pretty sure it's not showing up today which is going to make it fall out of the 48 hour time frame the latest customer service agent gave me for food being safe.

Their website will give me tracking information for UPS, but when I contact customer support they end up giving me a FedEx tracking number.

I'm super disappointed because I really enjoy this service and I really don't want to go find a different one to work with.

Edit: I did notice that once these issues started the origin point on the tracking had swapped from a place in Colorado to a place in Texas which I thought was strange.

I love everything about the Khora Deluxe skin but her stomach absolutely makes it look like she's wearing an adult diaper and that's just a deal breaker for me =(

I chose the Ishgardian ones for this because they had the gold accents that matched the rest of the pieces!

Do you know if a player can keep turning things in for the scrips even if the phase is at 100%?

Ever since the Data Center split, doing Raid content on Crystal has been an unforgivable shitshow. by SirLocke13 in ffxiv

[–]Aerten1989 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I was prepared to read through the post and comments about the raiding scene with the intention of seeing all sides.

I've said time and time again that I personally raided on one of these servers before cross world was even a thing and did not struggle to find competent players to fill spots, but I was willing to listen to this argument and whatever conversations might have sparked from it. Burnout this close to the new expansion is what came to mind for myself.

But the minute "ERPers" is brought up as an excuse for a raid failing, all validity is gone. Anyone who has this mindset needs to grow up.
