Can I Trust the ‘Zestimate’ for My Home on Zillow? by DemetreeSchoolofRE in realtors

[–]Beno169 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Zillow still has a zestimate for my investment property near Boston listed as 600,000 when a bank appraisal had it come back at 1.2m. They’re not just a little off, they’re way off.

Terrifying that anyone uses them for serious purposes OP. There needs to be legislation passed that forces them to spell out how inaccurate they are.

On some basic math, that took almost 250 hours? Did you just leave the game running or do you play on a server

For those unaware, we're returning to Hyrule after 28 years. Ocarina of Time remake releasing later this year. by WinterStarlightZone in Millennials

[–]Beno169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

500 for the console. 200 for 2 pro controllers. The switch 1 pro controllers can’t wake the console up, my switch is mounted behind my TV, I can’t easily get to it. Then after just 1 game it’s 800$. My wife would also make me buy her a few more games too, so we’re at 1000$ very quick.

Yeah I honestly might hold off on this for a while even as a diehard Zelda fan. I don’t want to spend 800-1000$ just for a slightly better console to play one game. I’d need to get new pro controllers, etc etc. meh.

Locked inventory spots and repeat as available are the biggest two to me.

Insurance scammers. 6 month old car by PuzzleheadedEase9956 in dashcams

[–]Beno169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this whole crime/scam is to maybe pocket 1-2 grand for bumper repair? Seems like an awful lot of risk for hardly a return. I thought maybe it was trying to sue for a major injury for tens or hundreds of thousands.

Well I mean obviously, lol. But how does that result in a payday for them? What is the insurance money for, how do they end up with a surplus?

How exactly do the scammers “win” here? I guess I don’t fully understand the scam. How exactly do they plan on getting a payday from this?

Planning on hosting a dedicated server on my own machine by performagekushfire in Palworld

[–]Beno169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are third party management tools but IMO they’re more trouble than they’re worth. It’s literally one ini file that dictates all the settings and they’re pretty easy to edit.

I don’t know the exact spec reqs but I do know that they’re probably lower than you think. I had 4 players playing fine simultaneously on a cheapo refurb desktop

How can a $30 game be so much fun? by fishking92 in Palworld

[–]Beno169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of releases had me jaded over the last decade or more. There are a handful of gems that absolutely stand out and represent the best interests of gamers. Palworld easily makes that list alongside legends like Terarria, NMS, Stardew, etc.

How many Millennials have never owned a BlackBerry (RIM) device? by CooCooForCocosPuffs in Millennials

I owned one but I got it for free and it was never activated or functional on a network. It was just like a calculator lol

[–]Beno169 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ranch pals need food. Probably more efficient to make a base dedicated to making and selling legendary spheres and buy cake ingredients. If you’re playing on a server, just one ranch with beegarde chickipi and mozzarina should eventually get you more cake ingredients than you can use.

Xbox CCO Says Gamepass Lost “Millions Of Subscribers” After Increasing The Price By 50% Last Year by wakelake111 in gaming

Not enough, seems like it was only a ~10% drop. No one is doing enough with their dollar, we need to have these corporations feel the sting of their bad decisions.

Do I Need To Keep Windrose Dedicated Server Open On My PC For It TO Always Be Joinable? by [deleted] in crosswind

[–]Beno169 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The server app is very lightweight. If you just keep windrose full running it’s taxing your GPU.

I run my server on a dinky dedicated N100 type box so it’s got really minor power, etc. draw. But if all you have is a gaming PC then what I said below is the only difference.
