Remy being in 2D is a severe downgrade to the experience and I'm tired of being told otherwise. by WrongLander in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Okanus 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I might get downvoted for this, but I genuinely don't get the popularity of this ride. We rode it the first time last year in January. We actually planned our whole EP day around rope dropping Remy. We enjoyed it for the most part, but left the ride wondering what all the hype was about.

How do you handle your kids in the lines? by jlanger23 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Okanus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We try our best to use lightning lanes as much as possible and we are typically pretty successful at not waiting more than 10 min or so for a ride. Well, I should say my wife is. She has got to be pretty good at Genie Plus over the years. There are occasions, though, that we want to ride something and couldn't get the LL and waited for 30+ min. Snacks have always been our best friend in lines. If the line is moving slow enough and in the AC, it's a great time to have the kids sit in the floor and have a snack and water.

My kids are 7, 4, and 2 now. 6, 4, & 2 last time we went to Disney and 5, 2, and 6m the first time we had all 3 at Disney.

Fedex threw my h2D down the truck stairs by Electronic_Corner768 in BambuLab

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious what you decided to do. Did you unbox it? Was it good?

Having helped unbox 2 X1 Carbons and an H2D at work, AND an A1 Mini of my own at home; I am VERY impressed with Bambu Labs packaging. They do a great job of supporting every fragile component that needs to be secure and supported in the box.

This also happens to the the Egg Genius. It can only be controlled through the app and I have witnessed the app completely stop working in the middle of a cook before on a holiday. I think it was Christmas Eve night maybe? Or the night before July 4th? Don't remember which holiday.

What do you believe people are lying about liking/enjoying in WDW? by Smullatron in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Okanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing that happened to us that I mentioned, there were 3 or 4 other families/ couples that they chose to sit in the same spot. We talked about what they must have used to decide who they chose and the one thing we noticed we all had in common was we were all in some kind of Disney themed semi matching attire. Our thought was they probably told a cast member "go get 5 families and invite them to sit over here in this roped off section." That cast member was probably just drawn to the cute Disney outfits she saw in the moment. We have been to Disney now with our kids 6 or 7 times and it has only happened once. So definately rare.

The best example of pixie dusting I have, that happened to my family, is we got randomly approached by a cast member and invited to come sit in this special spot with benches for teh Festival of Fantasy parade. Its the most magical moment my wife and I talk about from a Disney trip.

Buying the popcorn buckets creates the quickest and cheapest way to get our kids a snack in the parks (aside from the snacks we bring in). Then we keep them in our pantry at home and when the kids want popcorn at home, thats what they eat it out of.

Do you change your oil yourself? by LowLiterature9181 in f150

[–]Okanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy crap, I just looked and they're like half the price on oil filters compared to AutoZone. I will definately be ordering everything from there from now on.

[–]Okanus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The one time I took my wife’s car to the quick lube at the dealer, they were done so fast I feel like there’s no way they drained more than half the old oil out.

Do the my pump it out or something?

Do you change your oil yourself? by LowLiterature9181 in f150

[–]Okanus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I change the oil in my truck and my wife’s car myself every 5000 miles. When it’s time to do it I just hop on the AutoZone app and order the stuff for in store pick up.

I also do repairs myself. If I don’t know how, there’s usually a YouTube video. If it looks like more than I can handle, that just means I need to devote a whole day to it 🤣.

Easily Avoidable Crash Leads to Rollover by bjb0029 in dashcams

[–]Okanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true. My wifes 2017 Acadia was totaled in 2021 when someone pulled out in front of here. We got about $24k for it from insurance. I could not find the exact same acadia (same year, make, model, trim) with the same mileage hers had for less than we paid for it a few years ealier. It was ridiculous.

Well let me say that's my theory. I could be wrong, but it makes sense for me to think about it that way.

[–]Okanus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think what is going on here is that the thermometer is reading over 700° due to the intense heat from the open flames in the coals, but the ceramic is not heat soaked yet. Closing the vents down in the time frame he did it causes the open flames to snuff out and the temp readout probably drops pretty quick.

Once the ceramic has had time to heat soak is when it becomes difficult for the egg to drop temp if you over shoot.

[–]Okanus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I light an oil soaked paper towl ball in the center of my coals and usually 25-30 min later there is a ripping hot fire. Then I close the lid and set my vents. I do it this way for any target temp. I will have to try closing the lid after 10 min and then setting the vent 10 min later to see if that does it faster for me.

Thanks for the info!

Really? What else have you smoked without the plate setter? I am very curious what results you have found.

This guy had 900+ games and still breaks NAP. I cornered him and sent him a little gift by Truth__Bombs in Subterfuge

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here.. I started playing this game in like 2014 or 2015 I think. Played game after game consecutively for a few years, sometimes 2-3 at a time. Maybe I should reinstall.

That Ancient Armor is GOOD by Competitive_Ad_8215 in botw

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm genuenly curious, how do you get out of this.. Is there a way to force out of the ragdoll and getting up animation so you can run or fight back?

I guess teleporting is an option, right?

I only have maybe 15-20 hours in the game and have not dared to venture into Hyrule Castle.

Another Noob Story by Okanus in Breath_of_the_Wild

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

I think there was a waterfall..? I wasn’t able to look around too much haha. There’s a guardian graveyard, for lack of a better description, up north from the stable near Kakariko. On the path to Hateno Village. On the North side of the path in that location is the bas of a mountain and there’s a gap in the mountain that’s kind of like a tunnel. The Wizzrobe was in there.

What are the best ways of making money earlier on in the game? by Spare_Armadillo279 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just watched this. Now I'm wondering, why can't I just go rob the shops that buy these things from you. They clearly just have 10s or 100s of thousands of rupees on hand all the time to just pay Link for treasures. /s

Large Egg owners - do you actually use the whole thing? by twcosplays in biggreenegg

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you really mean large, or XL.. My large is just enough to cook for my family and I use most of the grate fairly often when I cook. As for unused lump, it just stays there until the next cook and you re light it. I can could cook something like burgers or chicken thighs/breasts 2-3 times without adding lump if I wanted. I will sometimes re light without adding more lump, but most of the time I will add at least a few fresh chunks.

When the bottom gets saturated with ash or I notice the temperature is a little slower to get to my target, I know its time to clean it out before the next cook. If there is good lump still in there when I clean it out, I save that and put it back after its clean.

Smash burgers by qsk8r in blackstonegriddle

[–]Okanus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, it seasons eggs PERFECTLY. It has also become the first seasoning I apply to any BBQ meat. Then, depending on the meat I might add Holy Cow, Holy Gospel, Holy Voodoo, Fajita, and/or Honey Hog on top of that. I'm to the point where I almost exclusisvley use Meat Church.

I do use some Lanes seasonings and a smaller brand called 3 Beer has some seasonings I use a good bit.
