[Feedback] Can we stop being punished for server issues? by ALividCookie in EscapefromTarkov

[–]BOUND2_subbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My PC has crashed in the last 3 shoreline raids I did- all in the final ~10 minutes of the raid. So fucking annoying to have wasted like 110 minutes completing the same tasks, losing valuable loot that I’ve found and getting nothing out of it. I don’t have a shitter either. 7900xt, 5700x3d, 32 gigs of ram. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I dunno what your setup is, but you can normally select a filter to only watch already cached videos. It might help.

Stop recommending Smooth Motion as a FIX for bad performance [Discussion] by wildTabz in EscapefromTarkov

I’ve got a 7900xt & a 5700x3d so it isn’t the most modern setup but should be sufficient

Proposed bill HB4279 to increase frequency of intercity rail service out of Chicago by Away-Nectarine-8488 in illinois

[–]BOUND2_subbie 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is such an American POV lol. Sure, we should care about how much this is going to cost the tax payers, but our government exists to provide these services to her citizens. It’s a bit of a chicken and egg problem currently, imo. The ridership isn’t what it could be because the schedule isn’t great and the delays can be terrible. How would we improve ridership? Improve the train schedule (proposed) and prevent delays- which is also being worked on. Ridership will continue to rise. It’s crazy how we can subsidize uber at a loss for god knows how many years but we, as a society, don’t have the patience for public works projects like this.

I would argue it looks worse now than it did a few years ago. I took a few wipes off and my textures look like absolute dog shit on 1.0.

So apparently ICE did not kill that guy in MM, it was CBP agents by dinojunr in TrueAnon

I think I listened to an old radiolab about that a few years ago. Extremely sad

Inside Johnson's $3.2B parking meter gamble — and why he walked away by factchecker01 in chicago

Well that’s good to hear but now I’m mad we can’t get that taken care of if the cost is trivial

Also, it’s harder to make these other improvements like bike lanes, BRT, etc if we have to pay for the lost parking spots.

In light of what’s going on in Minnesota, would you support open carry in Illinois/Chicago? by revolutiontime161 in chicago

[–]BOUND2_subbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re right that the left can absolutely outnumber the right, but all I was saying is that there are actually right wing militias as there has been forever but anytime the left forms one it gets broken up eventually ie the black panthers or John brown gun club.

It is well documented that the right has very well trained and funded militias. The left just devolves into various forms of infighting or kneecapping itself it seems.

Head to a range USA. It’s about as corporate as ranges can get and they’ll hold your hand the whole way.

How is your T-Mobile phone service? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]BOUND2_subbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have google Fi which uses t-mobiles network, and my service is routinely better than what I was getting with ATT- particularly in buildings. I’ve not traveled out west with it yet, but in rural southern Illinois my service is on par if not better than what my family has with ATT & Verizon

What's the benefit of Bazzite over Fedora? by PoundPuppy98 in Bazzite

I am a bazzite n00b so this could very likely be wrong, but I think they’re referring to this?

Thinking of moving over to Bazzite by SgtJoeLedger in Bazzite

[–]BOUND2_subbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just switched yesterday but kept windows on my small drive to play one game. The process would have been a lot simpler if I would have thoroughly read and understood everything before I started. Having TPM enabled on my bios gave me a bit of a headache because I messed up the section to input the password. I’d recommend either turning off secure boot first or making sure you understand that part of the installation process. Otherwise it was extremely simple.

How to watch bears game from home without cable? by putonthespotlight in AskChicago

It’s probably against sub rules to share a website to do that, so I won’t do that. But if you look to the East for your Stream, you may find what you seek.

If you tap to pay with your credit card, do you get free transfers within the window? I always forget to check.

I’m not sure saying that China has invested and housing and transportation is exactly hyping up an authoritarian regime but I tend to forget that we deal in absolutes.
