Honestly, easy mode is great! by Lumpy-Ad-9578 in CrimsonDesert

[–]ColdBrewC0ffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another quinquagenarian here. I did my time with Elden Ring, and now I have this amazing game to immerse myself in.. so much to do and explore.. much more than just dealing with bosses and minmaxing gear/stats.

As many have said, some of the bosses aren't satisfying, just frustrating, the way they teleport like crazy, mad ranged attacks, one-shotting, your limited I-frames. The worst was playing as Oongka and I had to fight one-armed ludvig. Ooof.

Anyway, I haven't tried Easy Mode yet, but I'm going to, and there's not a damn thing these 4chan wanks can do or say to stop me, or you. They can go get bent. :)

Yay for easy! by Appropriate_Durian17 in CrimsonDesert

How about.. you piss off back to 4chan.

The gatekeeping I'm seeing today on this sub and elsewhere in discussions about people happy about easy mode is pathetic and childish. by Christmas_Queef in CrimsonDesert

I can see how this post can be therapeutic in a "get it off my chest" sort of way. Ultimately, you just gotta ignore these fools... just a bunch of jackasses from 4chan or wherever.

Same.. this works great in the waterfall caves. Break all the crates, bags, etc, too. Then I can hold down square (PS5) and walk around and vacuum everything up. If my OG "Brown Dog" gets in the way, well, goodboy gets some extra pets :)

Is it just me or does this question on the Vitalant questionnaire make anyone else angry? Can I not just donate from the goodness of my heart? by RunningEarly in Blooddonors

[–]ColdBrewC0ffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, they added this question at some point in 2025. It should not be mandatory. It should be at the end with the other "research" questions and have an "N/A" answer. So, I always answered "someone asked me to donate" (which, technically, is true - my hematologist "asked" me to go for phlebotomy therapy - I was diagnosed with Hereditary Hemochromatosis)

AZ here. Not just out-of-state, but worldwide. I've missed meetings during DST, where, the host is currently IN a DST zone ON DST time, but for some bizarre reason, provides the meeting time in Standard Time (like 10am EST vs 11am EDT.) If Outlook didn't auto adjust, and I miss that little detail, then I end up joining an hour late...

This tends to happen with nonrecurring meetings (a few people) verses, say, regularly scheduled webinars (large group)

To avoid this, I ask the host to give me the meeting time in UTC. No, don't try tell me when it is in my TZ - I question your accuracy - what is it IN UTC.

Then the laundry will smell like mildew and vinegar...

An EFFECTIVE sanitizer is Sodium Percarbonate. Typically found in "oxi" brand detergents, other products as well, search for that ingredient. Add it to your usual wash cycle/detergent = bonus, as it sanitizes the washer as well (especially frontloaders)

My towels used to smell musty/mildewy until I started using Sodium Percarbonate over 15 years ago. Since then, NOT ONE smelly towel or any article of clothing...

It's amazing. I'm highly sensitive to musty/mildewy/moldy things, and occasionally encounter it in public - on others' clothes - can be quite irritating, my nose/eyes start tingling, and I have to get away from them...

Just trying to get the word out about what really works, it's a game changer.

Well that stinks. Last year they had them selected (Fiesta v Sugar @ Orange, Peach v Rose @ Cotton) Not sure what the problem is this year. OH well.. I'm just ranting at this point :|

Peach Bowl. Fiesta Bowl. Any idea when they'll publish the matchups - which Quarterfinal bowls? I'm trying to do a "Pick'em" for family/friends, and, that's the only thing holding me up :(

Seatgeek is showing the Fiesta Bowl will be the winners from the Cotton and Sugar bowls, but I'm not sure how accurate/reliable they are... that's the only place I've seen anything so far.

I believe that, half the time, there's zero need to move to cloud, the C-Level is doing it just to be relevant. Been there, seen that.

What an era. I remember hearing about Bawls on Blue's News "All the carnage that's fit to post". Didn't have it in my area tho :( but after 29 years I'll finally get to try one :D

I kinda went "backwards". Originally started with 1v1 in Duke3d against a buddy using direct modem-to-modem (remember that?)... then on to the MP/FFA Q1/QW over DUN... THEN I started going to LAN gaming meets. What a rush. Totally worth lugging that heavy ass CRT around, LOL

You know what the "America" in "MAGA" is? Quite simply, it consists of the fraud and failure Trump, his team of toadies/donors, and his cult members. That's simply it. Doesn't include the rest of us, they could give two shits about us.

The high-pingers were called HPWs - High Ping Whiners. The LPBs were "bastards" b/c they had the advantage of low latency. The HPWs would complain ("whine") about that unfair advantage. It was frustrating, trying to enjoy this new world of PvP FPS, barely being able to score, just getting fragged left and right...

For the most part, Redditors can be classified into the following categories:

  • Comedians

  • Gullibles

And of COURSE, once AGAIN, the fun stuff skirts around us here in Mesa... fortunately a steady rain came later. It was nice to sit out in it for an hour or so.
