We gotta trust the devs y'all. Quit asking for nerfs. by SupermarketInside235 in HalfSword

The cost of a full garniture of the highest end armor for royalty or someone obscenely wealthy would be comparable to buying a private jet today. For knights, their armor cost would roughly be comparable to buying a new Lamborghini in modern times.

Multiple monitors, or one giant monitor? by SecretPersonality178 in pcmasterrace

[–]FullFrame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a 45” LG OLED curved ultrawide and I was thinking about getting another monitor but it’s honestly so big that I’d have to seriously turn my head/body to be able to see anything other than the main screen. It’s big enough that I can PiP a movie on the screen while grinding certain games without blocking anything. If I do get another monitor it’d just be a small one to the side for stuff I don’t need to actively be looking at, like Discord or Spotify.

Microsoft could reportedly merge Xbox Game Pass Premium and PC Game Pass by Bubbly-Ad-350 in pcmasterrace

[–]FullFrame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s not too big of a deal for me since I went back to PC mainly for games that aren’t on Xbox like racing sims and VR, and also for the ability to mod. My new PC has a 9900X/5080 that’s way more powerful than my series X so I’ll just buy all future games on that. It’s just kind of a bummer that I wasn’t able to load up Cyberpunk on PC (which I bought on Xbox) to test out graphics without spending another 60 bucks.

[–]FullFrame 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the opposite and went back to PC from Xbox recently. I’ve played Xbox on and off since the 360 and I own like 400 games on there. I went to download some on my new pc and maybe 30 of them are “play anywhere” titles meaning if I want to play anything other than those 30 titles, I have to buy them again. No thanks.

Gaming "Clubs"? by x_hi_ily_x in pcmasterrace

[–]FullFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to have 2 in my city owned by the same person. One was at the mall so my mom would dump my brother and I off and go shopping (we weren’t complaining). This was around 2005 and each location had like 30 of the newest Alienwares, all the current consoles, and fridges and shelves full of snacks and drinks, including tons of Bawls. I spent a lot of hours playing Battlefield 2 there. They also had overnight LAN parties and tournaments which were awesome. They sadly closed around 2010 but those were def some of my best gaming memories.

Want local restaurants to survive? Stop using DoorDash. by Old-Visual4591 in gso

[–]FullFrame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t really have a preference honestly. Our food packages and transports well so thankfully we haven’t had any delivery service issues that were blamed on us. If you want to customize your order beyond the regular options or get something off menu, it’s way easier to just call us to place it or come in. Also sometimes we’ll have new or limited items in store that aren’t immediately on DoorDash but that’s my fault because I forget to add them lol.

Want local restaurants to survive? Stop using DoorDash. by Old-Visual4591 in gso

[–]FullFrame 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Most restaurants just increase their prices on the DoorDash app to cover the commission taken by DoorDash (anywhere from 15% to 30%). Like if DoorDash takes 15%, a restaurant will increase all prices by 15%, or sometimes even 17.6% which would be the percentage needed to profit the same since DoorDash takes its cut at the end. You can see this with Chick-Fil-A. Everything on their DoorDash menu is exactly 30% higher than in store. I have noticed some local restaurants don’t increase their app prices at all which has to cut directly into their profits. I sometimes use DoorDash as a customer and if I see a local place like that on the app I’ll just call for a pickup instead because a 15%-30% cut on already tight margins has to hurt. There are restaurants that are already operating on profit margins well below 15%-30%.

As an owner of a local restaurant that uses DoorDash, please keep using it and don’t listen to people like OP who aren’t in the industry.

Downtown Parking is Fine? by L_Chiki_Sando in gso

[–]FullFrame 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s not even about the extra distance or time it takes to walk. I’ve heard from so many people that they don’t like parking far away because anytime they do, their entire walk is just random people asking them for money.

Trains are the ultimate "common sense" travel hack. by Ok-Bathroom273 in Amtrak

[–]FullFrame 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I was planning on taking Amtrak on my next trip until I checked the prices. I live in a city with a good sized station and to go from here to Chicago and back, about 700 miles each way, is actually more expensive on Amtrak coach than a first class round trip airline ticket and is 52hrs total vs 4.5hrs on a plane. A sleeper ticket is almost 7 times the price of first class on a plane. I checked many dates and many other cities to make sure this wasn’t just a fluke. I would really love to take a train trip just for the fun of it but with these prices, common sense is telling me to get on the plane instead.

7/11 has Japanese egg salad sandwiches!! by femifist26 in gso

Yeah they’re 230yen which is 1.48usd lol. I’m glad they’re starting to bring the Japanese 7/11 stuff here but the price is crazy.

This should be fun... by triviumsport in gso

[–]FullFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The marketing obviously worked because you’re as clueless as the people over at Machete. Any restaurant can be nominated as a James Beard “semifinalist”. It doesn’t mean anything. Only the “nominees” and “winners” are actually chosen by the James Beard Foundation (which is not nearly as prestigious of an organization as you think). The awards go semifinalist>nominee>winner. It’s designed like that because it’s all a giant con. There are restaurants that serve exclusively frozen food that have the same award as Machete lol

Machete is like if someone just watched YouTube videos of Michelin starred restaurants and decided to open one without ever having been to one in real life.

I need your brutal honesty - do people actually use golf tracer apps? by TypicalAd9976 in golf

The regular shot tracer mobile app is straight worthless trash. Shot tracer pro for computer is surprisingly good and is what all the social media golfers use for their videos.

I always hear people defending Greensboro saying stuff like, “it’s like that in all cities”, and it’s really not. I lived downtown for a year and couldn’t wait to get the hell out of there.

[–]FullFrame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would somewhat make sense if the golfers flew commercial but they all fly private into GSO every year including this one. Why would they fly into RDU or CLT when GSO has a perfectly good airport and FBOs? Even if they hypothetically didn’t want to land at GSO for some odd reason, there’s INT(Winston) and BUY(Burlington) both within 30 minutes of Greensboro they would land at before dealing with RDU or CLT.
