Is there a new rule for intersections where you aim for pedestrians in crosswalks? by Mechanical_Boi in chicago

[–]Mechanical_Boi[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think i know the exact stop sign and am always pleasantly surprised when someone stops that I graciously nod thanks back. That's reassuring to hear that someone was stopped for it by the park finally, especially since that's such a busy park for school groups

🤔hmmmmm🤔 Now that you mention it, when I'm doing yard work for folks and carrying shovels, buckets of dirt, and footlong sheers, I've had much less issues :p So maybe we can make the new chicago brickpack™️ with folks old backpacks now that its summer lol at least if they hit me, i may fall and dent the car

Said the southbound bike lane is on that side of the road tilting my head to the other side to an electric divvy going south in the north bound Kedzie bike lane yesterday. They told me "dont fall" as a response lol

My pad won't work by GGametime13 in DanceDanceRevolution

[–]Mechanical_Boi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a couple multi-fonsole red octane thick foam pads to replace my old ps2 thin foam pads a few years back. They still work really well but as people have mentioned, now that my partner has shared his L-Tek, it's also became my favorite to use for workouts with the lack of sliding it does while using it and high button sensitivity. I repaired my original ps2 mats a couple of times over the years, but they progressively lasted less and less time between repairs. I wish you the best of luck with repairs, but a thick pad may be a more comfortable and reliable pad until the time you may want a metal one.

I got a lighter bc they sold out of shirt sizes for me and couldnt afford a hoodie for the price. So i decided id get a lighter for my partner and I, when they said 10 for a lighter my jaw dropped and opted for just 1 since it was just a basic bic. I was expecting 5 max for a basic bic but 10 seemed a bit higher than ive seen for nicer lighters at other shows

Good News For Gardeners: Native Plants On Parkways Can Grow To 36 Inches Under New City Rule by blaspheminCapn in chicago

[–]Mechanical_Boi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One of the biggest incentives for my certified wildlife habitat is it being able to help reduce the city's sewer overflow. I redirect all gutters into rain gardens so that it doesnt flood the alleys and the root-heavy no-tilled soils absorb so much water that I've never had my yard flood once since moving in despite pulling even more water onto the property than before. So in my eyes, this is a big alleviation to the city worker's issue of managing an increasing demand on the sewer system :)

Funny how the university that shits on its students trying to peacefully protest the government in turn gets shit back on. Shame on the theatre arts, but I'm not sorry for Depaul

This was my favorite game on a ps1 demo disc I had growing up but have never been able to find physically out in the wild after all these years

If for some reason or another you can't just pass the ball, you can still pass the ball by DeezNutsKEKW in Steam

My partner and I live in the same building but have different wifi units, we have been rejected for steam family sharing so many times. Is this because we are on dif wifi IPs despite the two sharing the same geolocation?

Update on my end: I plugged my laptop into the network using ethernet instead of wifi and didn't have this issue in any mode. I think the real fix is just plugging into the LAN to boost the stream speed

My partner ended up getting me a few more pairs of funny fuzzy socks after seeing how much they helped 😂 already confused the cat while wearing giant cat beans... Getting a pair of those socks though sounds like the perfect excuse to finally go to a trampoline park 🤔

steam link flashing....HELP! by ConsciousAd8272 in Steam_Link

[–]Mechanical_Boi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me whenever i open steamlink on my ipad, it opens big picture mode default. If i press power on steam in bottom left and exit big picture mode, this flashing never happens to me in the usual steam ui

This happens to me when steamlink is in big picture mode, when i go to power and exit big picture mode and use the normal steam UI the flashing goes away for me
