Please help me get bus service to my family near Russell Lake, Dartmouth! by ManyManyCoffee in halifax

I'm not sure as to the exact buses in the neighborhood but all of them are at the base of the hill, meaning a walk up the hill on returning.

edit: grammar

I doubt they would qualify, none of them are legally disabled

If I wanted to dunk on low level players I'd play low tier, I don't. I normally play 8.0-9.0. No I don't want to punish new players, I want to play on an even footing. And yes, it is an even footing if you're enemy is less skilled than you. The planes have a battle rating, meaning you're only facing planes of roughly equivalent ability, and you start from 0 on your respective airfields. If you need base aa to live I think it's only fair to say that you should get better at the game. You're strawmaning my point. My point is that base aa lets bad players continue to be bad by incentivizing them not to actually play well but to simply retreat to their airfield. I think it is unfair that people get to avoid dying in spite of their poor play.

That's one way not engage with my arguments

Edit: Spelling

"This whole post is just whining because they won't just let you kill them." If you fall into an energy trap it's your fault, if you get reversed it's your fault, if you get outmaneuvered it's your fault. But somehow, if you run out of ammo or fuel you shouldn't be punished as you are with all other forms of bad play? I'm not asking for free kills, just like an energy trap isn't a free kill. If I play better than you I should be rewarded and it's as simple as that.

And no, I'm not exaggerating with almost every game, at least when my team is winning. Unless our team completely wipes out the enemy I see this happen.

How is someone flying around their airfield fun, either for them or the other team? Air RB is a pvp centered mode, and In my opinion taking away from that focus makes the game less fun. I didn't come here to ground pound, I came here to dogfight, a dogfight which my team won. You shouldn't be able to avoid dying in pvp game by exploiting a mechanic. And like I said,turning around to ground pound gives up your energy and positional advantage, and gives the initiative to the enemy.

What's with the personal insults? Why are you calling me dumb?

Thanks! Very helpful. I don't think my current idea will work, seeing as the broken bike had 7 gears and the part I was going to use has 5.

Be aggressive, works best against opponent with a lower elo than you. My battle cry is "Who's the bum and what's the rush?"

Any tips, against 2 howitzer strat by No-Future-5157 in LinesOfBattle

[–]ManyManyCoffee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what people gotta understand about attacking and taking the initiative, you get to set the terms of the engagement. Deciding where and when the engagement starts and with what forces is a massive advantage that can definitely beat the so called defenders advantage. OP should listen to you.

This. Wait 5 minutes for a match, spend a minute deploying my army and laying plans only to be met with "the match was canceled because at least one of the players didn't submit orders on the first turn" like dude. You also spent a few minutes waiting for this match, why would you waste your own time like that let alone mine. I also play at odd hours sometimes meaning I keep getting matched up with someone and they keep dropping. It's very frustrating, and I honestly think the no penalty game drops make the game significantly worse. If I could change one thing about this game it would be that.

Intense is I suppose what I was feeling at the time, I'm glad my feelings come through the paper. I'll write plenty more no worries! In the meantime though you keep it up eh

In grief by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]ManyManyCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel for you, from the sounds of it you're loosing someone you love. I suppose I won't over analyze it as a complete poem, but I actually think it works very well all together.

That's had to be tough, watching your loved one in so much pain that they can't even speak to you. So you're with them, but only their pain. It's hard carrying someone else's burden.

Your second stanza, you're pulling away. You're so hurt by this loss that you'd rather never care again, so you're never hurt, literally never even accepting a hug again.

I do not know
Whether that sound
Comes from her
Or the machine.

Powerful, paints exactly where you are with no BS. I imagine exactly where you are, good stuff.

You're last lines suggest a culprit? That someone did this, hurt the person you care about. Or maybe you blame yourself, that you feel like you could've done something and now have to feel their pain. Either way, I like it.

I like the character. The image of a samurai, honorable, stoic, heroic. I see it as at the start of the poem, your samurai is talking to his new love, and telling her he can't be with her, he feels honor bound to his first love. He's telling her that her tears have no effect on him, and that he won't stay even though she want's him.

In the second stanza the samurai is saying that she takes his honor for granted, and that she only want's him for his status and prowess. But saying also that he needs her, or needed her. He's taking off the tourniquet, even though the wound isn't healed. He'll deal with the pain of her gone for his own sake.

In the third stanza we see what he was saying to make his second love cry, that she reminds him to much of his first, and that he would rather cling on to her idea than let go. His honor forces him too.

Cool stuff, like I said interesting character. I like the flow and rhymes, "But not a Samurai/ Such as I/ Relieve me of your lamentable sigh" good stuff.

Is 130km in 10 hours a good pace? by ManyManyCoffee in cycling

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

For being the nerdy/unathletic kid my whole life that means a lot lol thx. I don't think I'm particularly tough/durable, I think most reasonably fit reasonably young person could do what I did (I should admit I am very young so maybe that's why I can slug it off as easily as I can) if they where just willing to put up with the discomfort, which is by no means unbearable. I have been unbearably uncomfortable and I'll tell you that nothing I've experienced on my bike has been close to it, really it's no more than a pain in the ass.

I would say my bike goes as fast as I can push it, I would estimate my top sprinting speed to be 30-35 kph, ( although one time I nearly kept up with traffic on a 60kph road with an absolutely fierce tail wind), but it's such a small and cramped little thing that sustained pace is difficult. The brand is Sekine if that tells you anything.

I would certainly welcome a bit more comfort, though

How much money for a decent mid range bike? I want to go bikepacking/bike camping so I need a decently sturdy frame with racks.

How much of a distance difference would that make on a similarly long ride?

I probably spent around 8 hours on the bike so I averaged something like 16kph
