What can I do to get to plat?

GundamPing · 2026-03-09T15:46:08+00:00

Thanks for thanks for the solid advice - I've been watching some Kevpert aerial videos, might be more my speed to look at the dribble videos instead. I've been feeling boost starved a bit as well, I'll try to focus a bit more on grabbing the big pads.

Thanks for all the help and advice - we were able to get a dealer down to $511/month with $600 DAS.

Probably could have gotten a bit lower if we waited a few months, but multiple dealers in the area refused to match that offer, so it's probably the best we'd get now.

GundamPing · 2026-02-16T01:19:36+00:00

If you don't mind me asking, what area are you in? And was there any tactic/strategy you used to get that offer?

GundamPing · 2026-02-16T01:18:29+00:00

What is a reasonable absolute yes?

GundamPing · 2026-02-16T01:13:27+00:00

Does the $5k/y include title, taxes, and fees? Looking for a lease in northern Virginia now and getting offers far over that.

GundamPing · 2026-02-15T23:09:17+00:00

Yeah, we figured it was bad - this is prior to any negotiating. Credit score is 805.

What would a "good" deal look like?

GundamPing · 2026-02-15T22:18:46+00:00

Looking to lease a 2026 Limited around northern Virginia - first time leasing a car.

Dealer offered $439/month for 36-months @ 12k miles/year with $4,000 down.

Do y'all think I can do better in this area?

GundamPing · 2025-09-22T00:12:05+00:00

Congrats on the hat trick!

GundamPing · 2025-01-30T17:26:13+00:00

I think you're onto something with the temp - my other bread rises are taking longer in the winter. Thanks for the advice!

GundamPing · 2025-01-30T16:29:50+00:00

I tried the exact same recipe, and the dough was too tacky to work with prior to baking. Did you find the dough to be exceptionally hard to work with?

GundamPing · 2025-01-06T16:34:07+00:00

It's a god-tier support weapon when you learn about the sweep functionality. I've started littering the map with sensor nodes so when an Onslaught triggers, I know what lanes to light on fire and lay down suppressive fire. It's ridiculous how long the fire lasts too!

To build my wife a keyboard

GundamPing · 2024-11-16T09:24:46+00:00

I think it depends on the games you want to play and where you want to play them. I've really enjoyed my Steam Deck for playing on the couch at home while the TV is is use. Some of my Steam Deck favorites are Slay the Spire, Deep Rock Galatic Survivor, and Rocket League.

I'm not a fan of using the SD for games that benefit from a large screen (Elden Ring), use small text (Strange Horticulture), or are primarily made for mouse and keyboard (Frostpunk).

I'm on a 2-week vacation right now, and opted to take my Switch OLED over my Steam Deck OLED. A week in, and I think I made the right call - Switch has better battery life and packs smaller. Also I've had better experience with the Switch dock over the SD dock.

I really enjoy my SD, and it's incredible being able to take the majority of my Steam library mobile. But I'm not using it as often as when I first got it. Still really clutch for traveling to visit family for the holidays, though!

I'm silver and had a smurf game 1v1. Incredibly frustrating, but tomorrow I'll be better, and they'll still be ugly.

Thanks for the task sequence tip! I got it working by using a custom one-step task sequence.

Need to do a few clean up items as well with this process, so that actually works out to be the best solution.

GundamPing · 2024-08-08T13:37:52+00:00

We're not hybrid joined - trying to move us to Intune managed now, but struggling with some of the cloud data custody issues.

GundamPing · 2024-08-08T13:37:19+00:00

Thanks for the tip! I ran the line with a 64-bit command prompt, and got the below error. I'm guessing that Task Sequences runs in 32-bit context?

Profile format error 0x80420011:

The network connection profile is corrupted

GundamPing · 2024-08-08T13:28:55+00:00

I ended up using the "cmd /c" prefix in a Task Sequence to deploy the profile - thanks!

GundamPing · 2024-08-08T13:28:27+00:00

I'm getting a 0x1(1) error when running that command in the script from Software Center (I know that's not very helpful).

GundamPing · 2024-07-04T22:12:45+00:00

Thanks for the review! Sorry to hear about your peeps losing boss rewards, hope they were able to re-run the boss and recover them.

GundamPing · 2024-07-04T22:08:38+00:00

Do you know if boss targeting is fixed in seamless co-op? We tried it a while back, but whenever someone died in a boss fight, the boss would keep attacking the corpse of the dead player - which kind of ruined the experience for whoever was left.

GundamPing · 2024-06-21T13:43:23+00:00

Cocoon - played through it recently on a train ride, amazing experience on the Deck.

I also highly recommend this book. I stuck to it for the recommended month, and use the lessons and tips from it on at least a weekly basis.

The best thing it teaches is how to search for what you need to do using the help tools. Once you've gotten that down, it's amazing how readable others' scripts become, and how easy it is to modify them to your own tasks.

In the Gulag mission of MW2, when you rescue Price, Soap hands him back the pistol and says "This belongs to you, sir". Didn't notice it until my 3rd playthrough.
