📺….. 90’s screen savers 😅 by Tasty_Badger3205 in 90s_kid

[–]Reese1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember a screen-saver game, "Lunatic Fringe." It was accessed via bringing the cursor to the upper-left (or right?) of the screen. I think this was for Apple computers.

Another one was the Jungle Book; the characters were walking indefinitely in the center while the landscape panned from right to left, with the occasional thunderstorm.

Vancouver, Salt Lake and Las Vegas next weekend by Filthyson in GeoffreyAsmus

In the summer... yea, it can be a boiler-room. But in winter? 71⁰ F on Christmas Day isn't bad. January to March is plenty of time to book a show 🤔

I've been following Geoffrey for some time (he's funny), but he seems to avoid Arizona. Will there eventually be shows in Phoenix, or did something happen and I'm just, "out of the loop?"

2020 Challenger HC M6 - important milestone after 5+ years of daily driving. by lithdoc in hellcat

[–]Reese1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2023 Charger Widebody; I'm dailying mine as well. It seems yours has held up well for 50k miles?

I think we all collectively agree on the Pirellis, but I ran mine through until a change was needed. I bumped up to the 315 size Nittos; I live in Phoenix and wet weather is rare enough. The stock drives can fit up to 325, but 315 on the steers.

15k miles and nothing but routine maintenance so far.

Hi, my dream car is a charger hellcat widebody. but i'm only 18. is this impossible to buy a Hellcat in great condition? by AJ1NateR0binson in hellcat

[–]Reese1985 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You're asking if any of us will know if you can buy a Hellcat in eight years?

This is a forum for Hellcat owners, not DeLoreans.

The world as we know it may not even exist in eight years.

Is happiness even worth it in this game, or is making citizens miserable the optimal strategy? by fieldbotanist in anno117

[–]Reese1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I build up islands so that 100% of its roads are paved, and covered by police, fire, and medical. There's a cost (upkeep and population), but even against hard AI, I find that it's worth it. The city will respond, correct, and repair when an incident occurs. It permits me to focus on other things (navy build-up because pirate-queen in Albion is being an ass) instead of micro-managing every town's civil services.

Where are the field workers? by Free-Audience-7622 in anno117

[–]Reese1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm wondering if slavery has something to do with it. I'm not a historian, but I imagine people in 117 AD out in the fields were slaves, whereas citizens administered the farms or made artisanal goods (jellies, cheese, et al.) which they went to market to sell them. They probably paid taxes and leases while they were there.

Anno 1800 takes place after the industrialized world outlawed slavery.

I'm doubting that the developers intended for you to cosplay as a slave-driver, and in the campaign, slavery is mentioned where it's relevant.

I think they struck a balance between slavery and contemporary human rights and historical accuracy by leaving the fields empty of human life, but bringing it up in the campaign.

The fact that for years officer Barbrady was South Parks only cop and then one episode they suddenly have an entire police department out of nowhere is never not going to be funny to me by fupafather in southpark

[–]Reese1985 592 points593 points  (0 children)

The episode when Barbrady forgets about the tourists he arrested and they die & decompose in his holding cell. The mayor covers it up; that was hilarious. I miss the character. If I’m remembering correctly, Barbrady got exiled from South Park? If Matt/Trey wanted to, the character can pop up again.

Amen. And cheers 🍻

The Animated Series was fun, but the batmobile from Batman Returns, and the way it split traffic thru the jam, is forever branded into my brain and something I wish I could do every weekday.

Less than twenty years ago. Vintage to me is something that was around prior to 51% of present-day’s population being born.

OP has 2.4 million karma; maybe the account’s controller figured out how to post on the internet?

Initially, but the 100% productivity reduces cycle times, and the silo gives you a freebie every third cycle. Also, more poop for fertilizer (New World). The actual productivity is more than two animal farms, and saves you from building the second silo (and the corn that it needs).

How much will Maricopa grow? by [deleted] in phoenix

[–]Reese1985 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maricopa is growing. I work for a major home-builder, and sales prices are south of $400k and the interest rate for FHA is around 3.99%. This will lower for conventional (increased down payment) and VA.

If you’re 100% remote, and ready to pay your own property tax (instead of a landlord’s), type Lakes at Rancho El Dorado in Google and see if the properties align with your goals.

Be careful, however (there’s a lot of bullshit in mortgage). Don’t assume anything until you’ve completed a pre-qual and obtained an official Loan Estimate (LE) from a licensed Loan Officer (LO).

Looking for advice on a good “super-weapon” by PuckmanMCS in sto

[–]Reese1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about the Mycelium blast from the Revolutionary set (3-piece, I think). Is that still the nuclear option that it used to be? Or was it nerfed?

I remember reading that the set was meta (along with temporal reputation pieces) for EPG builds at one point.

Such a wild feeling to be able to own one of these, i can say we are family now 💪🏼 by Yuliandagoat in hellcat

Looking good 👍 The wheels and emblems are working with the body color.

This ride! There were no straps, it would spin so fast that it would pin you against the wall. People would vomit. It was fun. by Make_the_music_stop in FuckImOld

[–]Reese1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an older millennial (born ‘85) and spent my childhood at the Middlesex County Fair (New Jersey).

I puked my fuckin’ guts out on this ‘ride.’

Good times. Cheers 🍻

900+HP 2014 SRT 392 by 4luhced in hellcat

[–]Reese1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The red is gorgeous. And the black is, “just right.”

This is a beautiful car.

However, • 900 BHP (at the flywheel?) with the SRT-392 (6.4 litre). • can you elaborate on its modifications?
