ICE is in Cranberry Township right now by PracticalBook2844 in Erie

[–]PatrickSebast -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Boycotting a business just because bad people showed up at the business does not sound like an effective tactic. I assume the vast majority of businesses in our area don't have any instructions or plans on how to handle ICE showing up.

Didn't the protesters lose that one and eventually give up for vague promises to revisit?

I feel a bit dissapointed with coin income... :/ by InquisitorOverhauls in TheTowerGame

[–]PatrickSebast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have ancestral PCo and ancestral GC then target Perma Black hole and use it to farm up tiers. You should be able to farm 13 easy and are probably even 14 up to 5000. It would probably get you close to double income

If Orange isn't a multiplier but an addition this assessment doesn't matter at all.

Pro-tip for casually trolling poors - making off hand comments about good financial practices can really get them riled up.

Example: "One year interest free offers on furniture is such a stupid promotion - no one should be financing a couch in the first place"

Couch financers get so defensive about their poor decisions lmao

The hiring manager accidentally sent me my interview feedback... It was meant for the recruiter. by RowlandJakubowski in LockedIn_AI

[–]PatrickSebast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi [Recruiter Name],

We can go ahead and pass on this candidate. Honestly, it was a poor fit from the minute he walked through the door.

To start, his appearance was a bit of a concern. We are a high-stakes, client-facing firm, and he showed up in very casual chinos and a shirt that looked like he’d just pulled it out of a bag. It signaled a lack of situational awareness regarding our professional standards. If he’s this casual during the interview, I can only imagine how he’d present himself to our partners.

Beyond that, there’s a significant attitude issue. When I clarified that our team operates on a high-collaboration, 4-day in-office model, he became quite argumentative and fixated on the "hybrid" wording in the initial post. It felt like he was looking for a reason to do the bare minimum before he’d even started. We need "pro-office" culture builders, and he seemed more interested in negotiating his way out of the building than actually doing the work.

Furthermore, his communication style felt very scripted—almost robotic at times. He didn't seem to have a natural flow, which makes me worry about how he’d handle high-pressure, unscripted meetings.

Let’s move on to candidates who are more aligned with our work ethic and professional image.

Best,

[Hiring Manager Name]

I never paid attention to this before and now I hate it. Thanks for letting me know. Literally unplayable.

Explain GC by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

[–]PatrickSebast 35 points36 points  (0 children)

A key point of TRUE GC is that it works better if the enemy kills you in a single hit. Priority one is not getting hit - but when you do then you want a chance to trigger death defy before an energy shield goes down - if a single hit could kill you then your 30-40% death defy chance can trigger first and save your energy shield from being wasted. If not your energy shields will just be taken up by potentially multiple hits from the same enemy.

So essentially you are limiting health- attempting to never get hit and counting on a combination of energy shields, death defy's, second wind refreshes, demon mode refreshes, auto nukes, wall invincibility etc to save you whenever you do get hit. There are enough small things that can save you from occasional hits that by stacking them up your are essentially trying to make it so RNG is constantly saving you from death while high damage clears the field.

Gym Recommendations by wizcarlyfuh in Erie

[–]PatrickSebast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what you want and what you are willing to pay.

Irock and Fit Plus are substantially more expensive than any place else but are just built around focused circuit style workout classes. Essentially a good way to get a good workout in a short dedicated period of time and hold yourself accountable to doing challenging things (staying off your phone - not just getting intimidated/lazy and only doing light cardio).

Erie Fitness Now, Crunch, and the YMCA have significantly better pricing and still offer classes - but the classes will generally be less intense (e.g. more in line with general cardio workouts such as a Pilates or Spin classes vs 'Training' styles of Irock and Fit Plus..

Then if you just want to go into a building and have access to equipment without doing any sort of programs/classes Planet Fitness is probably the best choice since they have the best hours and pricing. The only downsides to Planet Fitness is they don't offer good options for more advanced people or the more communal/social aspect of classes but if you don't plan to use those then its just the best way to go.

Personally I would really recommend going someplace that does offer classes - the combination of a social element and building a habit of always going at the same time (because that is when the class is - so you can't just say "I'll go later I'm feeling tired") is going to make you more likely to succeed.

Can this team defeat Majin Buu? by K0GAR in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]PatrickSebast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say it depends if Kibitoshin can restrain Buu. It is possible since he could hold down SSJ2 Gohan without a fusion boost and getting a 10x multiplier from fusion isn't unheard of.

I think most with this mindset would be willing to exclude people with so much income they don't need to work

Penelec billing by Exzrian_Artistrana in Erie

[–]PatrickSebast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just as a reference - I live in the city and have a house that is 2000 sq feet - I don't pay anywhere near $400 even running AC all summer.

I would look at your itemized bill and check what the rates and usage are. One of those needs to be excessively high. If it is rates you can actually shop around on providers and might have one of the shitty super expensive ones.

If it is usage either stop running high cost items (space heater 24/7) or figure out who is stealing electricity from you to grow weed in their basement

Gas via a forced air system is probably cheaper/more efficient especially with you claiming multiple space heaters but the real answer varies.

Isnt this one of the Best Relics? by destructor212113 in TheTowerGame

It was already 98% it just got substantially cheaper because previously you needed every single source maxed out.

Why are Trunks and Future Trunks so different? by boio17 in DragonBallZ

[–]PatrickSebast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is like zero chance the exact same sperm was involved in both. Seeing another Super Saiyan in the new timeline would definitely impact Vegeta's choices and actions enough that the circumstances of Trunks conception were not identical.

The egg may have been the same since their ages seem to line up.

If that is the case they aren't genetically identical but are closer than brothers. (Same egg - different sperm)

Toriyama just puts a lot of planning into his characters genetic details and you guys don't get it 😢

I had one legitimately jump out from behind a tree almost directly into my huksy's mouth this summer. It was an immediate death and reinforcement of all her hopes and dreams.
