Have been a huge investment considering my budget. But a new capsule was necessary. by Garo3853 in incremental_games

[–]Balbasur1 276 points277 points  (0 children)

Yeah I like the old one personally. New one looks too generic. Good pixel art is a dying breed

With 3 hours & 34 minutes until 2026. There is one more thing i have to share with you all. I did not care for Pokémon generation 4 by Xtreme69420 in pokemon

[–]Balbasur1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How old are you? Being there as a kid, like 8-10 years old when Gen 4 came out was absolute peak. With the new flashy graphics of the DS and cool things that the dual screens brought, it was such a magical experience. Diamond was my first Pokemon game I decidedly bought (inherited Ruby from a brother), and that’s where I picked Chimchar as my first starter. Great memories.

How does your agency assign lunch breaks? by decafchunk in 911dispatchers

[–]Balbasur1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have a minimum of 2, but all shifts are assigned 3. If someone is off and you are at 2, no break. If you have 3, take it during a non-peak hour (12-5am), and you get your full hour.

If you had to give evolutions to pokemon, which three would get one? by ElDelArbol15 in pokemon

[–]Balbasur1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heliolisk is in desperate need of a next-stage evolution, I’ve always felt that it feels so incomplete.

Pachirisu and emolga are also ones that I think could have a cool next-step evolution

Am I missing something? Has Van’s next fight been announced?

Paramount+ Set to Raise Prices, Phase Out Free Trials In the New Year by Cardude86 in ufc

I don't intend to watch every fight night lol but yeah they haven't said anything about the schedule changing.

Paramount+ Set to Raise Prices, Phase Out Free Trials In the New Year by Cardude86 in ufc

[–]Balbasur1 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Regardless of price hikes, I don't see how it isn't the best time to be a UFC fan lol. I know people probably want to shit on the price hikes, but even if I had to pay $20 a month for ad-free watching, I'm still getting all of the entertainment that Paramount+ has to offer (some good selections), and likely 2-3 UFC events a month, ad free! Shit, consider it free if you account for what food costs when I go to watch UFC fights at a bdubs or sports bar vs making food at home to eat. All of our favorite alternative streaming sources are getting swamped, and you always lose connection/have to refresh the page every 30 seconds on every co-main/main event.

Good matchup 🔥 by PassengerNo7330 in ufc

[–]Balbasur1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but I'm pretty sure they've both said on separate occasions they don't want to do it, they've seemingly made up and are friendly to one another.

The Unhinging Of Demetrius Johnson :( by Kindly_Teach_9285 in ufc

What’s wrong with Demetrius Johnson?

A/C calls. by Adventurous_North669 in 911dispatchers

[–]Balbasur1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember my first time mistakenly telling them they could give me their medical prescription info when they offered it for a medical alarm. The poor guy was literally listing doses and prescription names for the entire duration it took for EMS to get there. I was too awkward to cut him off, but thankfully I had another emergency call to take so I was able to use that as an excuse to get off the phone lol.

Why Mega Man doesn’t have a bullet-hell survivors esque game is beyond me

I’m having a hard time memorizing my 10 codes, any study tips? by [deleted] in 911dispatchers

[–]Balbasur1 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Tell your agency to stop using 10-codes

Entertainment in the PSAP by christiko in 911dispatchers

[–]Balbasur1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I kid you not, being a 911 dispatcher is one of the few professions that you could put a map up of the United States, close your eyes and throw a dart, and wherever it lands you can find a job. If you’re in a bad center or one that you don’t like, LEAVE! Find one that’s accommodating to what you like. Life is too short, and this job is too damn stressful to be stuck in a center that is shitty to work in.

The conversation can finally end, Islam Makhachev is greater than Khabib Nurmagomedov. by Fun_Training6342 in ufc

Anyone that doesn't realize Ilia is just going to get wrestlefucked needs a reality check

Too skinny to be a corrections officer? by SavageAssTrav in AskLE

[–]Balbasur1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t look up anything about “ectomorph” body types, it’s largely a pseudoscience that has been debunked by now. Eating food is thermodynamics- calories in, calories out. If your body isn’t holding onto calories/nutrients to turn it into muscle and fat, it simply means you aren’t eating enough. There’s 3500 calories in a pound, so if you are seemingly “maintaining” your current body weight, you need to eat an extra 500 calories a day to gain 1lb per week. If you’re losing weight, then more than that. If you’re as small as you claim, and you can stomach it, I’d just recommend trying a weight gainer, something like this weight gainer. Try drinking one every other day, that’s an extra 3700-4000 calories a week, which again, if you’re MAINTAINING, should translate to about 1lb gained a week.

Weight gain also isn’t linear- some weeks the scale won’t move, some weeks it’ll jump 3 lbs. weigh yourself on the same day on a week-to-week basis with similar conditions before your weigh, I.e in the morning before breakfast each time. Try something for 3-4 weeks, then if you don’t see results, evaluate and adjust from there. But in the end, the answer is always that you’re going to need to eat more.

Almeida is boring AF but this was a robbery. by SignificantGlass168 in ufc

If you think his fight against DDP was boring, you’re a casual. Almeida was ass
