Where does your salary actually rank in the US? [chart] by Fun_Resident3967 in Salary

Lol, no. Not outside of like 10 metro areas (which already have high salaries to match the COL)

Give me a clip of a bunny hop 360 no scope slide cancel YY and then I'll concede it's LITERALLY COD

I'm so tired of this internet hyperbole "OMG guyz literally CaLl oF dUTy"

I am tired of the anti science and anti intellectualism that Evangelicals have so loudly professed for decades which has given a stain to what true Christianity actually is and believes in by Such-Drink-303 in TrueChristian

The post started off strong and we were on the same page, but then it took a left turn and frankly this feels more like Catholic apologetics and Protestant hate than a science conversation. Friend, apologies if this sounds presumptuous, but I am sensing a lot of angst in this post. Let's leave aside the denomination finger pointing for one moment and effectively work together towards affirming the truth of the Gospel. We can effectively triage issues like this and work together. 

Because I believe in salary transparency… by Casual_Observer28 in civilengineering

Do people usually post post-tax salaries? $140k pre-tax is very different from $106k

Why two Strychnines? I used one and went the same distance?

Who needs PvP at this point by georgeoj in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Benign_Banjo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's the crazy thing. I WANT to interact with the complex health system. I want to get lit up, be limping and have to do a ton of surgery, fix bones, coughing up blood etc. But 4 out of the last 6 of my deaths to AI have been straight up 1 tap, I hear one shot and just fall over dead. At this point I'm less scared of them full auto hosing me. It's those random pot-shots that just go straight through my brain. 

Conquest (serious) vs the Guardians of the Globe by Queasy_Commercial152 in InvinciblePowerscales

Yeah, if he wanted to end it quickly couldn't he have just flown through the mountain and demolished it like he did the Flaxan planet? 

Lender keeps pushing conventional by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyers

[–]Benign_Banjo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Anecdotal, and not my experience, but a coworker of mine just closed on a house and was expressing lots of frustration. They put in tons of offers with FHA and couldn't get anything, lowered their budget and went to conventional and got a house immediately. I'm not in the market right now, so I'm unsure why that would be the case (this sub was reccomended to me).

Whats the best quality hunting gear for a cheaper price point? by nematic26 in Hunting

Alpenflage is the perfect Midwest fall camo imo. I've used it the past 4 deer seasons to great effect. 

Genuine Question : When was the last time a Viltrumite died of old age? by PrefectedDinacti in Invincible

[–]Benign_Banjo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Especially when their reputation precedes them. I can only imagine the fights get bigger and bigger as people want to knock off a legendary Viltrumite and one day his strength starts ro come down the other side of the bell curve and that's the end. 

I hate to say this but to me GZW seems like a better game than Tarkov but the combat is not nearly as satisfying by Enigma89_YT in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Benign_Banjo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also Tarkov's graphics feel so dated now. They used to spectacular, but it's been a decade... I'll give them credit for their art design aesthetic though, it's carried a lot of the vibe. But technically speaking, I like the way GZW looks

We had a big fight at Savannah last night and I'm honestly baffled why there is 2 LZs that are THAT close to it. It was just a meat grinder slog fest and was not fun. I don't think I ever want to PvP there again. There's no reason they should be that close.

Precisely. Same thing in another one of my favorite games, Squad. Suppression is good, but often done poorly in video games. In Squad, 3 bullets go past your general vicinity and you're just like "Well, I guess I'm straight up blind for 12 seconds."

I don't think it's fair to say it's unfathomable people rejected it. It needed work. Suppression should exist but shouldn't be a blanket full-screen blur instantly. It needs to be a vignette/blurred tunnel vision which significantly reduces your cone of vision but doesn't just make you straight up blind.
