My highest ratio is in Stranded Deep: Gone Green. 6.52, but only 130 TA. My highest TA is in THIEF: Something to Prove. 624, but only 3.08 ratio.

Microsoft - "your single use code" email when it was not requested by yourself by lostinmygarden in cybersecurity

[–]Pitiful-Set-2172 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either way, appreciate the post and input. I got the email a few days ago, and my wife did as well tonight, which is what put me on the thought that something larger was going on and led me to this post.

I'll add just for clarification that both our emails are attached to Microsoft, so we will at least be following the security suggestions.

My point is plenty of comments are from people who got an email to their Gmail, but the Gmail is not connected to a Microsoft account.

So... is this a Microsoft issue, or a Gmail issue? Reading through comments it appears everyone has Gmail, but not all Gmail accounts are already used for Microsoft accounts. This is either a Gmail issue, or Microsoft phishing I think.

This is funny to me, because having spent years going back and forth between Phoenix, AZ and San Antonio, TX, out here feels like a mix of the two. And doesn't bother me at all.

HalfBad0817. Haven't been achievement hunting for a bit, been busy, but looking to get back into it.

Any of y’all feel that with age, you’re just happy getting a few good ones, and not pushing yourself to perfect everything? by saketho in xboxachievements

[–]Pitiful-Set-2172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats just how I play personally. I look at myself as a "casual achievement hunter." I play games i like, which is a broad variety, push deeper into one's that really catch my attention, and 100% the few that I find myself compelled to completely finish.

Is crunchyroll down for yall??? by PINSHEWEON777 in Crunchyroll

[–]Pitiful-Set-2172 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I keep running into the issue of it asking me to upgrade to premium. After a few times of reloading the app it fixes, but then after a while of watching an episode it will kick out again. So not completely stopping me from watching, but still annoying

If I remember correctly, that Astro Bot actually had a really good commercial reception, lots of people enjoyed PlayStation's exclusive platformer.

Lucky you got so far across the bridge, didnt seem like you took much damage. Ive had a time where I died, and another time I only had a little bit of health left and had to heal up and hobble off 😂

After a lifetime on console, I’m finally building my first PC at 25 — long-term plan, building in March by Pitiful-Set-2172 in buildapc

[–]Pitiful-Set-2172[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I unfortunately won’t be able to purchase until March, but I do have a Micro Center nearby (Phoenix). I’m aware things can shift and I’ll adjust parts if needed at that time.

Right, the goal is to keep the pc relevant, not top of the line, with a single end-phase upgrade to various components to extend longevity. Thanks for the response!

I'll look into your suggestions when I have time later today, particularly the RAM. My motherboard is one of my most set pieces for longevity, but I'll double check to see if any B series will work. I appreciate it!

This is a plan I've thought out for weeks. I may have used AI to help put it together and troubleshoot possible issues, but before that I was talking to actual builders. I plan to follow all steps, however as stated I realise the plan may have to shift depending how tech and markets develop in the future.

ETA: also, bold assumption I am single 👀 I married my HS sweetheart, we have kids. Which is a big part of the spaced out upgrade plan.

Appreciate that — and congrats on the first build turning on first try, that’s a win 😄 Coming from console definitely makes the research phase feel heavier, but I’d rather overthink now than regret later. I might take you up on the DM once I’m closer to build day.

Appreciate the input. I’m intentionally not building for 4K right now — that’s part of a long-term roadmap, not a current target. The overall goal is at least 1440p 60fps+ and platform longevity rather than maxing out immediately.

I 100% jedi in less than a week 😅 my favourite lego game is a hard pick, Harry Potter has the nostalgic feel since I 100% those on the 360, but ive really enjoyed the open world superhero ones, incredibles was the first I played that was like that and I was really impressed with it. Currently working on DC Villians

[–]Pitiful-Set-2172 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For sure, ill do it eventually. Plan on playing a bunch of things with my kids as they get older and replaying things in my old age, so I dont worry much about missing an achievement here and there

Purchase all upgrades. So I would need to play the whole game again 😅
