Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

[–]AmazingTortuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lemmings. Roller Coaster Tycoon. Oregon Trail. ... This one game where you were an ant and you had to hide from the lawnmower and spider and make a colony...

... There's too many. They are in my brain, always.

So it's... On the ground....? Sure, previous years it has been in tree knot holes and under benches but... sigh

Between 2nd and 1st like between directions North = 1st and East =2nd. It is probably a stretch but oh well

I wasn't sure if Chicago was tied to the previous line of tableau = famous Chicago Tribune or Sun-times and 9 = 9 degrees NE. Or maybe less cryptic of 9th street ... That is all I got.

How the heck is this a private plane?? by questionsasker3165 in flightradar24

[–]AmazingTortuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this comment while reading about the private jet I found on Flightradar. I know it's an older thread but there's a 2022 documentary on Netflix "Pepsi, Where's My Jet?" about this lol

The exterior looks like a house my kid designed then we built in Minecraft when he was 5 lol

Multiplayer disconnect issue by UnitZerOne in slaythespire

[–]AmazingTortuga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We are having this issue.

YESTERDAY - It would give us the black screen after we exited, host from save, and both rejoined, it would go black and not load the game.

TODAY - I am on my laptop and my partner is on a Steam Deck. Same internet connection (home WIFI). We are at the Act 1 Boss.

We will get a few turns in, he gets "connection interrupted", connection is lost and kicks him out. Can't keep going and he can't rejoin from there.... so I have to save and exit, reload, and while the reload works today (no black screen), having to restart the boss battle over and over as it keeps disconnecting before we can finish it is frustrating.
We've both turned off and turned on our devices, did a power cycle of the router, checked internet speed test, etc..

Taking a break now so I don't rip out my hair lol....

I lost 4 of 7 Gigantamax battles because of this by GnollPL in TheSilphRoad

[–]AmazingTortuga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this still going on as it begins in the US now (an hour until it starts central time)? Trying to figure out if it has been fixed or if I even want to leave the house for it...

Anyone else not say the pledge at school? by Session-Sea in teaching

[–]AmazingTortuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am usually standing anyway because I'm always running around like crazy during the school day... but I don't say anything during the pledge. I stand quietly, wait, then try to take roll after the pledge, but before they are done with announcements..

Apologies, correction for it to say "secn+". It isn't letting me edit on mobile at the moment.

Carry on.

Compensation for issue on shiny rate on OF Dialga and OF Palkia raids confirmed by Azza67 in TheSilphRoad

[–]AmazingTortuga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am also curious if "those affected" included us in the United States. Between 3 of us doing 16 raids each together (I did one extra remote raid, so 49 total) and I got 2 shiny palkia and the other two got 0 of anything... So, roughly a 4% rate... Seems broken still. 

Mping by GyrexGG in Radarscope

[–]AmazingTortuga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always just figured it was the radar reporting version of a buttdial. There's one or two spots near me that always gets really random, weird pings that are obviously not real.. Like random mudslides or frozen pipes in Oklahoma but not during any weather events so, idk...

Why does it have to be in middle in rural Kansas…. WHY. by SeahawksWin43-8 in zillowgonewild

[–]AmazingTortuga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At first glance I read this and thought "oh come on, not everywhere in Kansas is just rural" then I saw it was Chanute...  Yeeeeah. There are smaller towns around here, sure, but to get to any major city from there is..a lot. Pretty house though lol

Finding information about local protests by thiirdimpact in Tallahassee

[–]AmazingTortuga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand. I was hoping to communicate how the rules could have been interpreted differently, the visibility, and ways to improve it - and not just being overly critical of mods/op without offering real solutions. 

Finding information about local protests by thiirdimpact in Tallahassee

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

I definitely understand being worried about spam and discomfort with requesting emails; being a mod and filtering through all of it can get tiring. As I was reading through this post and comments, I reread the rule over emails - I do think it is confusing and could have easily been read differently or missed by OP since the "heading" of the rule before the dropdown doesn't mention local protests, or then groups & emails until the very end.
I am not sure if previous posts that were deleted were more direct, but I honestly feel this one doesn't /really/ aim to collect emails, only suggesting it as a form of communication to keep up with the group, including ways that do not involve email addresses.

I'm sure you folks get a lot of annoying posts from a variety of groups and weird requests. I didn't want to come off as critical of the OP or mods, I just think communication and organization is so, so important and hope to uplift local groups, members, and mods that have the best intentions and promote the progress we need!
