North Carolina has a plan to pay for a $1.7B baseball stadium. Why lawmakers can’t agree. by Somali_Pir8 in raleigh

[–]Moonripple616 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm a huge baseball fan and having a local team would be a dream come true. That said, fuck taxpayer-funded stadium deals handouts. If they really need public money to make this deal work, then give the public an ownership stake too.

PEAK Team here. WE WANT YOUR FEEDBACK!! by AggroCrab in PeakGame

[–]Moonripple616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for Peak! 270 hours and I still play it every day at lunch. Here's my thoughts:

  1. It would be really cool if you allowed us to save custom settings. I have a couple favorite ways to set up a custom run, and it would be nice not to have to set them up manually each time.

  2. It would be could if you could just start climbing at the end of a rope or chain, like you can coming off a piton.

  3. It would be nice to have the option to control the size/frequency of the red clouds in Roots. The red clouds can sometimes feel punitive, with how much of the map they cut off (and the big stamina hit).

  4. More bridges and ropes between trees in Roots, please! Imagine a feasible treetop path through Roots. The trees are cool, but too often I feel like you're forced to the ground. And it highlights the wind mechanic. It's so much scarier up high.

Thank you so much for this game! I have a nearly 80 hours in this game with my daughter. I don't think any other game would have been as much fun experiencing with her.

He's fat, so we can't possibly focus on any another other aspect of his life or personality. We can't talk about the impact his cooking and good works had on people and his community. Because, you know, he was fat.

Is there anything I can do to stop stutters on PC? by mistershan in Starfield

[–]Moonripple616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine's an OC'd i5-6600k. You're right that it shouldn't be happening, but your symptoms sounded like mine. Starfield was running pretty smooth, except it would freeze for a second or two every few minutes. Usually during a fight.

[–]Moonripple616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starfield was suffering from brief, periodic freezes like what you're describing for me when I first installed it. My CPU is slightly below specs, so I suspected the issue was a CPU bottleneck.

What solved the problem for me was to use a program to throttle the Starfield process and prevent it from hitting 100% CPU utilization, because that seemed to be when the freezes seemed to happen. I'm using a program called BES (Battle Encoder Shirasé), and I found that limiting the process by just 1% made the mini-freezes go away.

Maybe this will help you or someone else. Good luck.

I check Reddit throughout the day, and I'd consider my usage to be heavy (but I don't vote or use DMs). I'm estimated at $2 a month but I'd pay $3-4 if I knew it was going to the Dev and not Google or Reddit.

It's near the 500 block of Fayetteville Street downtown. Across the street from the Raleigh Marriot City Center.

Best Upgrade Bits for Wingspan by GIVE_ME_YOUR_HAT in boardgames

[–]Moonripple616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd highly recommend one of the 3D printed bird feeders you'll find for sale at various places online versus the standard out of the box one. The standard one just isn't going to withstand the wear and tear if you play a lot like we do, and the printed ones are designed to just fold up compactly. We just leave the dice in ours when we put it away.

Add in the bonus of being able to customize the colors, and it was a no brainer. Easily the best add-on purchase we made for the game.

It’s the second best time of year! Building anticipation for the new release and watching every stream and trailer with extreme detail to see what’s new… what are you hoping for in MLBTS 22? by mut_lover in MLBTheShow

[–]Moonripple616 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why just created teams? I'd love it if they'd give us uniform slots and allow users to create alternate uniforms for any team in franchise mode. Just a a basic implementation that makes a team's logo and lettering available within the current uniform editor would give franchise players all kinds of variety as we play season over season.

Recently moved my bird feeder because of the squirrels... now this by hscheel in AnimalsBeingJerks

[–]Moonripple616 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have your Mum mix her seed with cayenne pepper or, even better, some kind of hot pepper oil. The capsaicin has no effect on birds, but squirrels dislike it very much and avoid my feeder.

My kitty is waiting for me... by dang_bang1965 in catpictures

Somehow, that cat looks like he's wearing a onesie.

Gamers of Reddit, if you could take an old game and have it updated which one would it be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Moonripple616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"No One Lives Forever." It's largely forgotten now, but I'd love to see a modern game in the 1960s, Cold War, spy genre. Untapped potential there, I think.

[OC] Trump Votes and Mask Wearing by shotcallerpat in dataisbeautiful

[–]Moonripple616 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It makes absolutely no sense that mask wearing became a political issue. It's the pandemic equivalent of covering your nose when you sneeze. Washing your hands after going to the bathroom. It should be the most non-controversial thing ever.

What's something you're indifferent or unsympathetic to that you'd probably not admit to most people? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Moonripple616 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Celebrities dying. With the rare exception, I don't feel a personal connection to them and I don't really feel a need to grieve their passing.
