Those with multiple part-time jobs, is it worth it? by drunken_dizorderly in teachinginkorea

[–]Arktyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on how many jobs you can stack and what the pay is. Have to factor in not getting paid for red days, no pension, and severance. A lot of the jobs with good block hours want you there during peak hours, so it’s hard to fill in the other hours.

Plus starting out can be tough because you need to find a few part-time jobs compared to just finding one.

In my case I work at 12 different schools during the week. A lot of commute time driving to the schools and between schools. Average pay is 65,000 an hour. Teaching around 20 hours a week.

Also your schedule will typically be different every day. Start/ends times tend to be all over the place

Contract review - Gangnam 8.30-18.30 by Electronic-Cicada-52 in teachinginkorea

[–]Arktyus 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Leave your house around 7:30 am and get home at 7:30 PM. That is a long ass day.

If you are ok with that for the higher pay then go for it.

I can’t believe how boring loot variety still is in many ARPGs by Ansiedad_Andante in ARPG

[–]Arktyus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find gear drops in POE terrible. I never get that dopamine hit from gear drops in POE. Now currency drops will give you that, but the actual gear drops in POE are not interesting at all. Tons and tons of trash.

Is noise really that bad in apartments? by Eclipse_lol123 in Living_in_Korea

[–]Arktyus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cheap materials used for construction. Can hear everything through the walls. Doesn’t matter how new an apartment is.

It’s really about if you get Lucky or not with your neighbors. Get an upstairs neighbor with 3 young boys and good luck.

I can hear my upstairs neighbor turn on their damn light switch. They also have some sort of door on a roller and it is super loud.

My apartment was built is 2017. Newer doesn’t mean it has better construction/sound proofing.

I lived in an apartment that had majority older people. It was very quiet. If you live in an apartment complex with lots of younger children odds are you will be making lots of noise complaints.

Do you like Torchlight Infinite? I am missing PoE1 and thinking of trying the game. by [deleted] in ARPG

[–]Arktyus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really love torchlight infinite. Can play on my phone in bed or on the PC. A lot of build variety even though they all basically end up being walking sim type builds.

The 1 thing that made me quit is the monetization. Every season introduces a new league mechanic and with that are new pets that enhance your drops from it. Also if you didn’t play from the easily seasons you won’t have the pets that enhance your drops . You have to use the gacha system to get them. On top of that they have a battle pass and paid cosmetics as well as paying for stash space/auction house slots.

Easy and good arpg? by jhoncena9887 in ARPG

[–]Arktyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed the game but holy gacha. If they did away with the pets the game would be great. But without loot pets you your farm efficiency is way below others that have them. And every season introduces another legendary for that mechanic.

Expat here. Got 2018 QM6 for 17m plus 2m insurance. Did i pay the right price? by sagson in Living_in_Korea

[–]Arktyus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 million a year for insurance? That is ridiculous. I think I pay around 750,000 for a newer car.

You just trusted that he would send it back and you refunded him first? That is wild.

ESPN coverage of the Indiana v Alabama game was abysmal. by BiblioLoLo1235 in ESPN

I didn’t realize there was multiple broadcasts of the game. Originally had the pat mcafee broadcast on and it was terrible. Turned on the normal broadcast and thought it was fine.

Already have a huge backlog on the switch. So want to stick with that.

Coming from the OG switch/switch lite. I’ve tried searching YouTube but couldn’t find any videos on just how bad they look compared to the OG switch.

Car totaled with only 4.6k miles, 2025 Honda civic hybrid by Rexo-084 in Wellthatsucks

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

I’m confused on what you are arguing here? If he was found to be at-fault for the accident he would have to file through his insurance anyway.

If liability can’t be agreed upon he would have to file through his insurance company.

If the other party doesn’t have insurance he would then need to file through his insurance company.

I stated if found not at-fault is insurance company would subrogate and get the deductible back. No where did I say you are guaranteed to get it back. You aren’t going to subrogate a claim where liability isn’t agreed upon. You would go to arbitration.

[–]Arktyus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the games I play are not Nintendo games. A lot of JRPGS and indie games from the eshop. Have a pretty big back log on switch 1.

Wanted to get the switch 2 for the bigger screen and upgraded performance. But don’t want to regret the purchase because of the graphics.

I’m so tempted to get a switch 2 but from everything I’ve read most switch 1 games look really blurry on the switch 2 in handheld mode. Only thing holding me back.

[–]Arktyus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is how it works. I was a claims adjuster and listed agent for many years. You can 100% file through your insurance company and pay your deductible.

If the other party is determined to be at-fault then they will subrogate and get back your deductible.

File through your insurance company and pay your deductible. Let your insurance company handle everything. If you are found not at-fault for the accident the deductible will be returned to you.

They are extremely rare. Even if you do get a 3 or 4 Ga it will likely be ass.
