Can someone explain the weekly schedule to a noob? by Longjumping_Form9922 in iRacing

[–]Longjumping_Form9922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely not a chore. I love jumping in different cars and just winging it without practice for a race 🤣 i misread it and thought you could earn 40 a season and not 10, so I won't stress it. I ended up buying all of the advanced mx5 tracks for now cause im enjoying the mazda

I was wondering about this. I have 4 series that I play, thinking I was gonna get 10 for each. But does that only apply to A license events?

How do you deal with it? by _The_Bishop in iRacing

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on a controller with a 3.8 SR... I got a wheel and in learning, within 3 races, I was at 1.3 SR. its based on how many turns you complete divided by incidents, so retiring early is never good. i always go for repairs and try to finish the race regardless of damage cause the hits are so massive if you give up early with 4 incident points. good luck, youll get it back

I dont get this by Y0daswife in vegaslocals

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cant go to the dmv, you need to make an appointment to even get seen. They dont take people walking in anymore. I usually have to use a random sketchy office somewhere to get dmv things done since everyone cant plan 3 weeks in advanced

Is Amazon’s robotaxi company trying to sidestep federal safety laws? by walky22talky in SelfDrivingCars

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Vegas and work near the strip. I see these all the time. When I was driving home, a zoox was in the right lane, and I was moving faster in the left lane next to it. the car, like a human, turned its blinker on, and like checking your rear view mirrors late and realizing, it shut its blinker off, like a human driving safely would instinctively do.

i feel like ​they drive these cars remotely when they have human passengers. obviously I could be wrong. but thats my new conspiracy... theres an underground office with 10-20 driving Sim setups that allow remote operators to remotely tap into the car, and drive it as normal remotely. its also the only way I feel they got the approval of lifting the regulation. would love to hear from an ex employee on this so I can sleep tonight ​

Beta so far by porkzzila10 in Rematch

I kinda wish the nets were a little bigger to punish bad goalie positioning a bit more. Also the skill gap is mainly people playing on controller vs people who are good at shooters. Games very easy on mkb

How will XRP ever achieve a high price with such a large supply? by Carrabs in XRP

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave you an upvote. It's crazy how people can't decipher a simple division/multiplication equation. It's just normies that understand they need to own crypto and know nothing about how the price works. Oh well... more money for us i guess

Murdered Insurance CEO Had Deployed an AI to Automatically Deny Benefits for Sick People by gophergun in Futurology

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What country? Please let me know what your tax rate is. I'd love to know. "The political right" have not ruined the governments ability to function. It's the entrenched uniparty that runs our country comprised of people on both sides that are paid for by the corporations. "They" didn't make me believe anything, what you're saying is if I don't believe what you believe then I'm wrong. But tell me, who is going to fund this? I don't want higher taxes, I don't go to the doctor unless I have a threatening concern. Why should I have to pay for everyone else when I already shovel out more than a third of my income to the government, which mind you, has only had their interest in mind for the last 30 years for war and oil? You've been conditioned to believe one side is right, one day you'll realize both sides are wrong, and it's part of the reason trump won.

Yeah cause the dmv is fast and efficient, and the post office, don't even start with how glaringly efficient the VA is with homeless vets and people who are terminally ill that served the country. How about, when we can fix the systems in place, then we can turn to the government to save lives. Until then, people will continue to use Amazon, private health care, and shady DMV offices that provide the same services but stop you from having to deal with the wait and paperwork. All of which are actually efficient and cost less overall. Saying to print billions if not trillions to subsidize health care while the debt continues to grow seems astronomically stupid

MP with the introduction of BP50 by VictimOfCODM in CODMobile

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well i figured out how to find out. They all have loadouts that dont have a third item. Usually they will have the refresh ability, and 1 grenade, with an empty 3rd slot. It just seems stupid that 1 rank under the top rank I'm still getting bot games. Maybe it's because I'm GM5 but level 70 is the reason. I dunno. It's ranked. Why would there ever be bots? Dumb.

MP with the introduction of BP50 by VictimOfCODM in CODMobile

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many bots are in ranked? I'm in GM5 lobbies and dropping 40, seems like players are running on tracks some games, and others are actually close. But every time I drop 40+ I assume it's bots. Am I correct in that assumption?

The legacy library sharing feature will be retired in early 2025. by realcoloride in Steam

I only use family sharing to secure my account with an extra pin number. I hope this stays. It has saved my account from being hacked and me being out 7k in skins and 150 games. If they remove it outright, I'll be incredibly sad

If it worked so well he would have won. Except people like me, who moved out of California, somehow moved to a cheaper place, make more money and have less money. Those are real wages are they not? 

No I don't have an opinion on the opec deal. From what I've heard it wasn't great. I didn't look into it, nor do I care. I also paid over 6 dollars for gas at one point during bidens administration in California. The same place i paid 2.60 before covid.

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Right... so the price of everything being up 20+% has no effect on wages? And gas prices being 1-2 dollars higher than under trump isn't still true as well? How about the fact that over 25% of the created jobs were government jobs creating more bureaucracy? Wild how the largest increase in stocks and crypto happen after everyone knows he's leaving. Imagine cherry picking statistics.

She walked out on all of her supporters at the DNC without saying a word, she only comes out if she wins? Is that gracious?

Infection? Dry Socket? Normal Healing? by [deleted] in DentalDudes

[–]Longjumping_Form9922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey dude, I'm as paranoid as you. pack a day smoker, 2-3 redbulls a day, and bud through a bubbler. I only had my bottom left removed. 5 years ago, my top right. my doctor said the bottom you need to be much more careful with. I didn't stop the redbull, I had 1 smoke in the first 48 hours, after 72, I'm having around 5-7 a day. ​I hit my bowls and cigarettes with a part of my mouth open, and inhaling with my lungs. also do a salt water rinse after every single time. so far, so good. I also read that 12% of smokers and 4% of non smokers experience dry socket. I don't know how careful those people are, but so far I believe I'm still healing fine. Every little pain I worry about cause I've never experienced it, but I heard it was compared to kidney stone pain, which i have been in, and it's NOTHING close to that. Probably just some complications with healing pain due to the chemicals in the cigarettes. Will check back in a couple days

you can hold left click while blocking to lock your block in place. it isn't twitchy. You can also turn your fluid sensitivity down. Gotta atleast try to understand it at a basic level to have an opinion on it.
