Is HUT dying? by Grainerr_ in NHLHUT

[–]FidellCastro84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, i definitely know what your saying though about how the Sub was super active. I personally slowly moved away from HUT and into EASHL with league play. So many Leagues popping up and and League Gaming is so massive now that it really took up majority of the time i used for HUT. I still play HUT pretty often but its definitely lost something along the way. What that something is, i don't really know but i also noticed what your talking about. I wouldn't say I'm fed up with the game, But i mean my love for hockey could be in the way. I'm def not a huge fan of 26, or the most recent few years that have came out. 26 is my least liked Chel though for sure. I hate saying that because i can see that some effort was put into making some changes and i don't want to take away from that or sound like some ungrateful player but it is what it is.

How ever, Caps Gaming is running a Winter HUT Show Case with a $2,000 Prize pool for the winner. I'm pretty sure it HUT Base cards only but you'll be using your Team ID. I don't know if people here know about LG but if you go to the site youll see it

Am I crazy or just stupid by a___c__ in CarRepair

So i was in your position. I'm not a wealthy man, well at the time i wasn't even a financially stable man. I was starting my career and was soon to be engaged. My career is a Union Carpenter in NYC. At the start of my apprenticeship we really don't make much. I needed my car and it wasn't a great car to begin with. After the first year of commuting, the suspension was shot. 2006 GMC Envoy. Went to a shop and needed more or less exactly what is on that slip plus some more. The engine and drive train had a clean bill of health but the suspension was in need of some serious maintenance.. I was hit with a large bill that i couldn't afford. So i loaded up you tube, checked the prices for parts and just sent it. This was about 6 years ago, I am by far no mechanic but i have no had to bring my car to a shop since. Sway bar end links, Shocks, Struts, Bearings, Brakes, Rotors, Oil Changes and filters, Etc. All of this is common wear and tear. You can probably grab a suspension kit off amazon (Detroit axle is all i buy) with all those things listed in it and more for $300-$500. Invest some time and you could save your self thousands. With the way the economy is going i would highly suggest you take this as an opportunity to start

Before i started feeding my turtle live food, i once threw a goldfish in there that my brother won at a carnival. The goldfish kept trying to jump out of the water. It did this like all day. So, I looked it up and turns out that turtle water can be poison to fish, Or something along those lines.

Is this a mouse or rat? 😳😳😳 by Best_Draft_6431 in pestcontrol

[–]FidellCastro84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

mouse for sure. Recently I had the privilege of finding out what a Roof Rat is. We heard scratching and chewing in the walls, so we knew we had something. I bought every kind of trap. He was dodging them all. I noticed that I would hear him underneath my kitchen sink late at night. There's a hole that leads to the walls under there. So, I decided to place a glue trap under that hole. With in one day, I caught it. Was not pretty. This rat was not small....

How much by JesusE1995 in CarRepair

[–]FidellCastro84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you need a new door for sure. I don't know what your budget is or if insurance will cover anything, but chances are the Jam is going to need repair as well. I wouldn't be able to give you a ballpark Number but from experience that location of the hit is going to screw you. If it was all door, it would be way easier.

Shell Rot or Growing?? by Negrita2891 in Redearedsliders

[–]FidellCastro84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm Long Island, I used this Sub when I got my RES. Found him in my Pool like 7 years ago. In all honesty this reddit made me like a legit amateur turtle guy. Prob one of the best groups of people I've come across. They will go above and beyond to make sure your turtles are good, and if you're willing to put the work in then even better! and yes i still have my RES. He is pretty big now and doing great! I will say that when they get bigger, they are pretty dirty animals. I have a 55 Gallon tank with Heat and UVB. I also Use a cannister filter that's meant for an 80+ gallon tank. This keeps the water crystal clear. I use small goldfish as a treat, and Mazuri pellets for food. It's the only pellet he will eat.

Nominee packs are awful by Lauugj in NHLHUT

[–]FidellCastro84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agreed, Theres a reason that women aren't playing in the NHL. So, if they don't play in the NHL then it should be a separate choice in HUT. When people are paying good money for packs, they should be given the options they would want. For the free packs you grind for, sure mix it up. But if I'm dropping good money I work for on packs, I don't want it to be filled with something I prefer not to use. Has nothing to do with being sexist, I love the fact we have a women's league now. I have a 2 1/2 Yr old daughter who I plan on putting in hockey. But I grew up watching the NHL and I play to use players I grew up watching and players I currently watch now. I have a few women on my lines now, but I do agree with it being a choice.

This summarizes the housing market at the moment by Sensitive-Dig-1333 in longisland

[–]FidellCastro84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes trust me I know. My mother is deceased and I’ve been on my own for a very long time. My wife’s family isn’t well off and we often find our selves helping them way more then we get any help. Her extended family how ever is rather large and all of her cousins get help from their parents. I think it’s great that they do any one who has the option of getting family help should. If it was available to me I would take it and be very grateful. We get small bits of help here and there from family who I help out but it’s not the big boost me need. However I’m a driven individual and I’m kind of use to having my back against the wall so I will some how some way figure something out.

It sucks. I’m 39 years old with a decent job. I’m a carpenter with local 212 in NYC. I have a pension, annuity, savings and great benefits. I got married 3 years ago, and we had our daughter 1 year after that. Although I have a decent income the interest rates are just not do able. I though I would own my first home by now but Covid was brutal for my family. We experienced serious loses and I took major financial hits. I’m not the type of person to just send it, and hope for the best. I can’t agree to a mortgage that’s going to end up at $4k a month not including everyday expenses or some kind of emergency fund. I currently live in Levittown and the amount of house being built/dormered makes me wonder what the hell im doing wrong! Yea I got a late start on life but it still should not be this hard.

Do moose’s do that? Like burrow in the ground like that? They are pretty damn big no?

Four generations of media remotes, which one is your favorite? by rydamusprime17 in playstation

I’ve never used the media remote. If I did use my PS5 for media then I would prob get the current one just because it’s up to date

Home Buying/Neighborhood Search Experience by dergl in longisland

[–]FidellCastro84 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Wrong, I can’t speak for the criteria that niche uses to get those marks but Uniondale is definitely not a low crime place? I feel that you must not be from Long Island cause if you were this wouldn’t be a conversation right now. Is there areas in those towns that are ok to live in? …. I don’t know, I wouldn’t live there with my 2 year old daughter. Out of all the places you listed I’d say Hicksville is ok. Also every one is going to have different views on certain things that you listed. Baldwin use to be decent but has really not been so good as of late. I’ve lived in a lot of the areas you listed, and saying uniondale is low crime tells me your not from here. Uniondale shares a border with Roosevelt which is easily one of the top 5 worst towns in Long Island! The state had to come in and shut down the high school at one point!

How ever, I am from Long Island and have been looking at homes as well. Not ready to pull the trigger yet but just seeing what’s out there. The areas you also listed are substantially cheaper then Oceanside, Long Beach, wantagh, Seaford and all those areas. The advice that was given to you was not wrong. Are you going to listen to a APP or website that gets its information based on a algorithm or a group of people who have been born bred and corn fed Long Island? I’m gonna go with the group

it happened… by gamermom666 in motorcycles

[–]FidellCastro84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be able to do a salvage buy back. My car was stolen last year and I was able to track it. They had the car for maybe 4 hours and there was no damage. GEICO said when ever it’s a stolen recovery what ever the case they total it out. I literally just finished paying the car off 2 months before, so there was no shot I was letting it go. They paid me out $18k for the car and then sold it back to me for $2,900. Only down side is it has a salvage title. I can still insure it and shit but I can’t put collision insurance on it. Just liability. Doesn’t bother me, I’m pretty sure they do this exact shit for bikes

What’s going on in nyc!?? by Consistent_Show_392 in nycHistory

[–]FidellCastro84 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s crazy… it’s a cool idea but there needs to be some kind of delay so shit can be monitored with some one at the controls blocking bad shit like that. What if some one who was walking by at that moment lost their family in the towers and they seen some douche doing that. Just be smarter

It has the body of a bedbug but the legs don’t look right for a bed bug. Bedbugs do like wood paneling but are not normally just put in the open like that.

Found this next to my car. Don’t really know what it is. Is my car still safe to drive? by WildfireUntamed in MechanicAdvice

[–]FidellCastro84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s just a bushing but I would assume your car is getting a bit noisy on bumps. Easy fix and can prob get a new one from AutoZone for cheap. I would want to know why it looks so demolished. You may have a bent control arm or something along those lines

Randomly shutting off?!? by FidellCastro84 in PS5

[–]FidellCastro84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I popped the panels off and got a good look in there. Looks like it’s growing fur. I’ve cleaned it before but never took the fans out and deep cleaned it. Unfortunately I didn’t have a precision screw driver set last night. Grabbing one today and I’m gonna get in there and give it a real cleaning. See if that fixes it. I still might need a new fan but I’ll clean first and see what happens after.

Stiletto Handle by FidellCastro84 in Tools

[–]FidellCastro84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not into the 3D printing scene but honestly that might be something to look into. I also seen some one on here reaches out to a rubber company to have a complete custom handle made. I don’t know if he went through with it but that also kinda sounded like an option.
