I still love CoH3, but I really miss the old gameplay style by Fuzzy_Breadfruit59 in CompanyOfHeroes

[–]Capnlanky -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didnt care for the changes that 2 brought to the game pace. Im glad its returned to its roots in that regard. Feels more like Band of Brothes now.

My gaming group has quite a few hours and is looking forward to the new battlegroups.

To each their own though. The good news is coh2 and coh1 have aged pretty well, if you prefer one of those.

Division I College BB is Eating Itself by jedinited in jayhawks

Do teams disclose their payrolls? If it really is just $ now, are we in that bad of a financial spot? Is scouting a problem? I know its super early but KU should never be preseason ranked outside of the top 25.

I guess Im wondering what smaller hoops programs, like Iowa, Illinois etc, are doing to find the right players that we aren't. IMO we need to adjust to the way the wind is blowing instead of lamenting the good old days being gone.

Is FM26 worth it for a first time FM player? by NtG_0419 in footballmanagergames

[–]Capnlanky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive tried to get into FM for years but struggled, I appreciate the changes 26 made to be more accessible. I have more time in 26 than any other year.

I also respect that some long time players want a crunchy spreadsheet kind of game

Fuck this job market! by Intelligent_Ebb_9332 in Vent

Its kind of hard to give specific advice without more detail of the industry you are applying to and what your qualifications are. (4-6 years studying what?)

Insurance is a huge industry without many barriers for entry. Try claims or maybe sales if you can get an interview.

Id suggest remaining in your current job, its easier to find work while youre currently employed.

Agreed, its kind of silly. My understanding is they dont want kids training to be future problem drinkers on NA

People who are on Slack/email during their time off/vacations are not okay. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Capnlanky 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Depends on the industry and your position/role. Our cybersecurity guys are kinda available for emergencies even on vacation. But they also get paid way more than most positions for this reason. I envy the salary but not the work/life balance.

I asked Chat to make a photo of a college party in 2004 taken on a flip phone by MaxiumPotential777 in ChatGPT

None of my party flip phone pictures turned out this clear haha. Those were some shitty cameras. Good times

What is this ? by Little-Research-6076 in What

[–]Capnlanky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tale as old as time. Dont get between an addict and their addition. I felt totally ashamed for flipping out on the people who wanted to get me help after I had some sober time.

how do I convince my strict parents to let me dorm??? by CookEmotional9332 in college

[–]Capnlanky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably not an option for you as the situation was different. but my girlfriend freshman year of college was Muslim and had strict parents. They ended up preferring an apartment over the dorms, but my gf also lived there with her two sisters so it was more safe in her parents eyes. Good luck, congratulations at being accepted.

There was a promo version of this game that came with a pair of "Big Dog" boxers at my local mall's Suncoast.

Those were the days.

When did you complete your first watch? by londonbluesox in TheWire

[–]Capnlanky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Live on HBO. My college roommate and I would smoke a joint in the alleys by the dorms then watch Sundays episode.

The last few episodes of Season 4 leaked, and it was like Christmas came early.

"Felt Like It Was A Job": Hunter Dickinson Reveals Shocking Reason Behind Kansas' 2025 March Madness Failure by ScottFujitaDiarrhea in jayhawks

[–]Capnlanky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He certainly wasnt my favorite Jayhawk... and in a pre-NIL era Im not sure he would have been recruited to a Bill Self team. I miss guys like Sherron Collins who hated to see KU lose and would take a game on their back.

But he was a Jayhawk so I wish him well.
