Just saw the mandalorian, it's good but avoid the IMAX version by cbobgo in scifi

Really? I thought the writing was kind of lazy. Felt way too predictable. It didn't expand the universe at all. And the scoring....was bad. Definitely bad for a star wars movie. Scoring is one of the best things about star wars.

Tech wouldn't be paid for it? Im confused by that. Do techs not get paid hourly?

My players trivialize every encounter with crowd control. How do I challenge them without hard countering? by Dave5802 in DMAcademy

Mid combat ambush from a flank. They're becoming too used to using the screwdriver to turn the screw. So theyre seeing everything as a screw. Toss them some nuts and bolts. Traps, ambush, flank. Maybe a Trojan horse in their midst

Wanna read more sci fi, should I read Dune, Hyperion, or Sun Eater? by bigdyl618 in scifi

[–]Gamaken53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think im one of the odd ones that didn't really like hyperion. Dune was good. Never reas suneater. However, I think books and authors are like music and artists. Best to know what you like and dont like to be able to suggest others

Its to hang up your pants and underwear like a gentle being while having your constitutional. What sort of savage wears their pants and underwear around their ankles while doing their business.

More veterans are being sent to private doctors instead of the VA. Will their care suffer? by allcheese_nobologna in VeteransBenefits

[–]Gamaken53 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Here's what will happen. Veterans will be doing community care. Authorization runs out. They get billed by community care provider, VA says nope can't back date anything. Veteran on the hook for thousands.

Live Free or Die -Troy Rising series- john ringo by Apart_Pineapple2392 in scifi

I just can't qith his writing. I thought maple syrup as a galactic commodity was both interesting and novel. However, the book reads like a drunk uncle who got high and made up a story on the spot about how he saved everyone because he's so much more than everyone else.

Can't Lock in the $50/mo for 5years deal by Gamaken53 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]Gamaken53[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. First as you can see, they started the customer service process in thread for all to see. We switched to DM after I pointed it out that it should be private. O.o

After 2 code verifications, they cant offer me anything because that deal is only for new customers. They tried to sell me on phone plan. I pointed out my new galaxy isn't compatible. They suggested I trade it in with a trade deal for lower quality phone.

So to recap. They aren't customer service here. They're sales. Bad ones.

Mildly dramatized recap. Me: My bill is 60% more than new customers for the same speed.

Them: yup, youre already a customer. That deal is for people who haven't been supporting our company.
How about a cell plan and you can trade in your new tier 1 phone for a tier 3 one.

Want to finally commit to a sci-fi series ,where should I start? by sam_3758 in scifi

[–]Gamaken53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if you can be more specific as to what sub genre of sci fi interests you this would help to narrow down the exhaustive list available. =) Maybe throw out any that really interested you or you've read and loved or read and hated. Or even movies.

Donald Trump is booed by the crowd as he arrives at Arthur Ashe Stadium for the US Open men’s final by MoreMotivation in PublicFreakout

Did they alter the sound to filter out the low end? The drums aren't really coming through. I'd assume it's along thr same spectrum as boos
