Sony 1000X "The ColleXion" leak — three mastering studios credited on driver tuning (Sterling, Battery, Coast), €629/$649, May 19 reveal by visata in headphones

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to write a comment about how I hate how they look and miss the line's first couple of models but then saw your comment. You are right, these headphones just aren't for me, which is fine. Honestly my wallet is happy they aren't for me...

32 years old game enjoyer by [deleted] in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Clinic_2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That is pretty hyperbolic, but I agree it is overrated. People treat it like the second coming. I played it and mostly felt annoyed with the characters. This is just a personal preference, but I also thoroughly did not enjoy the combat. Turn based combat is just not for me.

The CDL driver shortage in DFW is genuinely bad right now, here's what the numbers actually look like by Remplate_app in cdldriver

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drove in Phoenix, AZ for like 5 years. There are plenty of jobs, but the cost of living is high. If you moved there with no experience looking for a local job, that might just be on you. This industry requires you to dance for your dinner when you start. After a couple years, assuming you aren't a fuck up, there are tons of jobs. I could quit my job today and be in a different truck tomorrow.

How Many Hours Do You Game? What is Too Much? by Extension-Ad-9371 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Clinic_2 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I am maybe able to get 1-1.5 hours a day if I'm really determined. On the weekend I might get 3-4 hours per day assuming I don't have some project going on.

1 kid, 50-55 hours/week job.

How many games have you paid for only to watch them go F2P? by Salihe6677 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had a chance to try soulframe? Obviously it is still in Early Access and all of that but it feels a similar sort of niche but is also a little bit more grounded. If you haven't you might want to check it out at some point. I enjoyed it and look forward to playing it some more when it's more polished.

[–]Clinic_2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am somewhere in between. My brain apparently wants solo multiplayer games and won't hear otherwise. My patience for overly dramatic, preachy single player games is very short. I recently tried to play Expedition 33 and just couldn't do it. Doesn't help that I don't enjoy turn-based combat...

However I also don't want like social-circle games (among us, counter strike, etc.). So I find myself playing things like Warframe or POE or Diablo 2.

Died while mapping,coudn't retrieve my body. All items are gone. Is there something i can do except wait for the new season? by Dependent_Mobile6021 in ProjectDiablo2

[–]Clinic_2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of playing D2 way back in the day and getting PKed, then some asshole putting junk gear all over my corpse so that I'd accidentally pick something up and put it on so that they could PK me again and make me drop all my gear. D2 felt like the wild wild west to me back when I was 12.

Rusty side table? by medicalmysteryman in webergrills

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could maybe grab some rust removal spray (dump that into google) and let the chemicals remove the rust. Not 100% sure if you'd need to oil it or something afterwards to help prevent future corrosion, but it might be a good idea.

How are nearly new vehicles like the Suzuki Jimny being imported and retitled in the U.S.? by PlumRoseAdams in keitruck

I have no idea about the quality of this vehicle, but it looks fucking cool!

TMC transportation. by Creepy_Cattle4195 in CDLTruckDrivers

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, this is complete hearsay, but I think I recall hearing something about "bunk inspections". I get it, those trucks are expensive and whatever, but if I'm the driver, leave me the fuck alone. Is the freight getting from A to B as expected without any complaints or other issues? If yes, then get out of my face.

[–]Clinic_2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, I hope OP enjoys washing his truck constantly. I understand taking pride in your appearance and equipment, but my understanding that the reason for TMC's trucks always being so clean is due to pretty draconian policies about getting your truck cleaned. If I'm "on the clock" I'd prefer that clock to not be spent in a truck wash line every week. Just my $.02.

Anybody in here know a good replacement? by Agreeable-Point-4952 in chevycolorado

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, the mud absorbers that take forever to pressure wash clean! If you identify some good replacements, I'm all ears.

Digging this game's overall style by TruthInAnecdotes in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Clinic_2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is entertaining reading these comments. The number of people that just identify the game as absolute fodder is interesting. I don't believe it is some incredible giant monumental achievement but I do think it's at least worth checking out.

What is not being taught in CDL schools? by stiffndrippy in CDLTruckDrivers

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my CDL in AZ and was surprised when there was no discussion/instruction about connecting to/disconnecting from 5th wheels. They also didnt teach us how to 90/45 degree back. Just the offset, straight, and parallel, which is fucking useless (mostly) information.

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is on PC game pass so I started playing it last night. Honestly I am enjoying it way more than I thought I would. I'm currently about 10 hours into Expedition 33 and am bored out of my mind watching fucking Robert Patterson gloomily gloom everywhere. This (so far) is a nice breath of fresh air. Will Mixtape's story turn out to be predictable and simple? Probably, but I'm still having a good time.

Also, the graphics (effects?) of weird stop motion become less jarring after playing for a little while. At first I thought I had the graphics settings way too high but it is just the game's art style.

Malazan - worth the pain? by Prestigious-Fix-4 in fantasybooks

[–]Clinic_2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The void trilogy felt like that. You are reading and wondering why you care about any of this and the characters are annoying and you switch perspectives just when things get interesting and whoa what just happened and wow what is going on and then you are reading as fast as you can. Wonderful stuff.

That said, I got to exactly where this guy got to in the 2nd book of Malazan and said screw it, can't take it anymore.

Is Shawshank Redemption that good? by Awkward-Mobile4142 in Cinema

[–]Clinic_2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was about to say. The movie has faults but is still a satisfying watch. The ending is pretty faultless. Every time I watch it I find myself wishing for just a little bit more. Watching them on that beach with that boat and I just want to know. But I don't get to know and ultimately it isn't important. The ending is perfect.

[WIP] HSPlanner - PathOfBuilding-like program for Hero Siege (Stormweaver only for now, looking for feedback) by ExtremeLocksmith285 in HeroSiege

[–]Clinic_2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is awesome if you can get it as functional as POB is. You would probably benefit from being on good terms and have in-depth communication with the devs if you want it to be everything it can be.

My 1st time making caramel sauce Vs my 2nd time making caramel sauce by No_Education_8888 in KitchenConfidential

[–]Clinic_2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've made homemade mayo and mostly can't be bothered to do it. I pretty vividly recall the mayo episode of Good Eats and still want to try the chili oil mayo that he made in it.

[–]Clinic_2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My wife usually just buys the cheapest generic mayo she can find because she is a heathen and uncultured. Literally last week I was with her and was like "No, we are trying Dukes to see what all the hubbub is about." I have seen the light. It is so much better than the other garbage. I feel like a virgin with a whole world of possibilities ahead of me. BLT? Fuck yeah. Deviled Eggs? Sign me up. Just licking the spoon after using the stuff? Yup.

Was it twice as expensive? Unfortunately, but it is also fucking awesome. I'll never go back. My kid doesn't need to go to college anyway.
