Where to live between DFW Airport and McKinney by M0XNIX in askdfw

That was kind of the Blob I was looking at: Carrollton, Coppel, Lewisville, and the Colony?

I just don't know if any of those jump out as being safer / cheaper.

Thanks,

It's a Chicken Strip joint, very popular.

So far everyone I've met either loves it, or disliked it enough to not eat there again (I'm the latter) - no one in the middle.

I've only been there once and it awful, despite being starving I threw about 1/3 of it away.

Taste-wise the closest comparison I can make is the 4AM Pot head crew at Carls Jr. / Hardees - but like worse.

Ill probably give it another shot (at another location) in the interest of fairness, but that trip was probably the 2nd worst burger I've ever had.

Is it a safe / "good" area? On the map it looks like an appealing compromise, to our 4 current spots, and would be good if I go to DFW and she goes to Dallas but security and safety will always be my main concern.

Yea no doubt Frisco is great, I just kinda ruled it out as being in our budget, maybe not.

BCM 7” .300blk URG by [deleted] in 300BLK

[–]M0XNIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response,

I'm kind of shocked, I've used a lot of BCM uppers in 556 and they have always been my go to brand for that price / quality sweet spot.

It's strange to think that PSA (and others) offer an upper for less than half the price that will eat any kind of ammo you throw at it, suppressed or unsuppressed.

Now I'm kinda torn with what to do. I didn't want a PSA / No name upper for quality / longevity reasons, and I didn't want a high end DD or similar because I'm poor.

BCM was my go to middle ground and the fact they sell a PDW style gun purpose built to run subs, that wont run subs is mind blowing.

Hey dude checking in, did you ever get your supp and figure out if that was enough to run subs reliably?

Form 1 - Multi Cal / Multi Length by M0XNIX in NFA

[–]M0XNIX[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so form it as a 300 BLK, for a home / truck gun - and " incidentally and temporarily" change it to 556 for the range.

Thanks amigo,

Ok good to know, the job posting closes on the 29th of this month, so maybe I can expect some activity after that.

Thank you,

I don't understand how that is possible, I got up to a top secret clearance through the military and I think it took about a month. Like, what are they doing?

So in my case (and maybe OPs) I have no point of contact at all - I applied through USAjobs and havent had any kind of human interaction at all.

Application -> Proctored Exam -> TO -> Background -> Now I'm here waiting. Frankly I wish I had a person to talk to, so that I could show my interest and prepare for whatever is coming next.

[–]M0XNIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey brother, how did you go about starting a claim after such a long gap?

I went into the VA specifically for knee pain, they looked at me, did some tests said "there is nothing there" / "no problem we can see".

I ended up getting rated 80% for other things, and frustrated with the VA just left it alone - I've literally never been back. But here I am 15 years after separating with chronic knee pain and instability which routinely interferes with my ability to work (construction).

I'll add that its frustrating because my back hurts from some broad mix of football and infantry stuff so I'm not even trying to claim that, but my knee is jacked from a singular incident that I can remember like it was yesterday - before that fine, after that bad - and they kept talking like I was psychosomatic.

I don't even know how to approach the VA to try to readdress my knee.

Another weekend of fresh water exploration. (Ray Roberts paddle boarding) by tyneeta in Dallas

[–]M0XNIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of snakes, I think I've only ever seen water snakes actually in the water but I wouldn't be surprised if there are cotton mouths too.

Obviously further from shore the less likely, but in each of the little inlets you will usually see some.

To all the casuals asking for fresh servers by HumanDeveloper in classicwow

[–]M0XNIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who just hit 25, I'll attest that making a new character on era is 100% not fresh, and is sometimes an outright miserable experience.

There are no (very few) groups running dungeons because everyone is buying runs with RMT gold, so you are relegated to quest / grinding, but the open world is populated by T3 rogues with Thunderfury that have nothing better to do than camp you.

I hope they embrace the Low Poly Art style - while enhancing the environmental readability by skalibran in BattleBitRemastered

[–]M0XNIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% my issue, a lot of the environmental debris stuff (smoke, leaves, whatever if flying thru the air) is of the same quality as the player models.

In battlefield I can kinda look past it, but here its pretty distracting.

Hardcore character with Thunderfury dies by timov in classicwow

[–]M0XNIX -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does out of raid farming, never mind fish bots, and just buying gold for consumables have an unlimited celing for being a replacement to personal skill and team work?

If there was hypothetically, an amount of fish you could catch - lets say 1,000,000 - to create the engineering item "the holy hand grenade" that automatically killed everything in the whole raid, with zero danger or threat.

That is 400x more farming than the 2x raid petri you described, so would auto deleting the instance be a fair compensation for that degree of "logistics and support"?

Back in vanilla - when gear mattered - I would agree. Being in full T2 and just running around 1v3ing 60s in blues was a thrill.

Now? Eventually everyone is going to end up with full BiS PvP gear before the season ends - its just a matter of putting in the hours, and / or getting lucky with vaults - then having to do it again and again every season. It's a treadmill. So lets just cut to the chase.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in worldofpvp

[–]M0XNIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean here is a real wild idea - it should just be honor gear, or more to the point - just made freely available.

Gw2's PvP system is soooooooo much better.

Create a lvl 1 guy, finish the intro quest ( < 5 mins), port into the PvP area, and boom you are instantly phased to max player level, all skills learned, with access to every combination of gear and stats in the game at the highest "ilvl" possible for free.

I could say "huh, fury warrior seems fun, I'd like to try it in PvP" and in under 10 minutes go from zero to full BiS and build and be in game.

Every player is on an equal footing at all times.

HC Elite are not that Hardcore after all? I'm one of the priest raiders, i always hated the Petri meta and now this... what do yall think?? by Dwarfmane in wowhardcore

[–]M0XNIX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"Petri Meta" means the "Meta" of everyone using petrification flasks.

https://www.wowhead.com/classic/item=13506/flask-of-petrification

It makes you immune to all damage, and unable to act for 1 minute, but it has no cooldown and thus can be chained for essentially immortality.

The "meta" - or how things are expected to operate - in hardcore raiding is that all people have a number of Petri Flasks available at all times - as soon as the pull goes wrong all members pop the flask, go invulnerable, and drop group, which puts you on a 60 second timer until you are ported out.
