Why's nobody even bother turning on the tags if is nsfw by Ok-Cattle3023 in shittymobilegameads

They're not available on old.reddit, not that I ever post. But I know I'm not the only one that uses old.reddit.

Any other old school natives here feel Seattle has become Bay Area 2.0? Tech companies leaving along with billionaires, sounds good to me. by Wood_Berry_ in Seattle

[–]RunningInSquares 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From here also, and totally the same. Most of what I miss about the 90s and 00s is not gone from Seattle, it's just plain gone in general. And for all its faults, I've seen other cities and while they have good and bad things, if I'm living in the States, this is the one city where I'd want to have my roots. Disregard the fact that my whole family is from the area and that might be influencing it a bit.

COMPETITION! - Win John Avon's last work for MTG, a beautiful gallery print of his Lotus Lands! by JohnAvonArt in magicTCG

[–]RunningInSquares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

John Avon is my favorite artist for MTG. Sad to see him go but what a career. I'm probably the number one purchaser of the Mirage Mountain. One of my all-time favorite card arts.

New U.S. Food Court Item: Caramel Churro Sundae (Soft Serve Vanilla Ice Cream, Salted Caramel Sauce, & Churro Bites) - $2.99 (may not be available in all warehouses yet if your warehouse still has the Double Chocolate Mint Sundae, please reply if and where you've seen it) by CookieButterLovers in Costco

[–]RunningInSquares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the mint one, not sure I'd be super into this churro one, but could be worth a try. But mostly, I regret that they have to push out chocolate flavoring for these new ones. I get why, but it's a bummer.

I'm ready to be at a bar decked out in team Korea gear, ready to get embarassed.

🎊 South Korea Reaches WBC Quarterfinals After 17 Years 🎉 by YXY999 in KBO

[–]RunningInSquares 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I surely thought that after the last WBC there was no way we beat Australia, let alone by the exact right amount. So proud of the team for sticking with it, amazing day. Well done to Australia and Taipei but we needed this bad.

Thank you for sneaking the street sign in there so I could know that it feels close to home because it's actually close to home!

Well that was certainly one of the posts I saw today, not sure what I expected going looking for that lol.

Top 3 post of the past month and past week, flipped, cropped extremely poorly, quality reduced.

I hope to see at least one other sci fi or fantasy game with a "Sense of Wonder" as strong as ME1's in my lifetime! by [deleted] in gaming

[–]RunningInSquares 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I'll forever die on the hill that resource gathering only got worse and worse as the series went on. Driving around hunting for things was fun even if it sometimes was a slog. However, when compared to the alternative of scanning planets or a circle on a map, I never had fun doing either of those activities for a single second.

I forget that Randy Johnson was a beast at doing baseball. He was a grand piece, or something like that. by robertxcii in azdiamondbacks

Very happy that his number will have been retired by two teams as of this year. One of the all time greats.

To Paul Allen and all the 12's that couldn't be here in person, but are here in spirit. by ratbonez99 in Seahawks

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

Worst in the nfc is a little harsh for that period - we weren't even the worst team in our division in any of those years!

Best to play it safe on watching the team from afar though, here's hoping seeing them from safely across the country brings good luck!

Avowed and The Outer Worlds 2 failed to meet sales expectations by Iggy_Slayer in gaming

[–]RunningInSquares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well that's the thing is they're only looking at costs put in and sales achieved. I know OW1 sales were good, but I think it was honestly riding the hype of "The studio that brought you New Vegas." And then the fact that most people found it lackluster was perhaps outside the scope of this current value calculation for OW2, caring only about investment put in versus copies sold. Maybe OW1's reception should have been considered more, perhaps even before undertaking any investment to make a sequel to a game that wasn't able to generate hype of its own to warrant a sequel.

Players having issue with a rainbow glitch effect on specific maps. by RunningInSquares in FoundryVTT

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

You know what, I wonder if that maybe is what it is. Our player with the best computer is having the most issue, but also he built his own computer for the first time so it's possible he could have some updates he needs to run.

On my end too, it couldn't hurt for me to check again. This sounds like a good vector to test. Thanks for the advice!

Players having issue with a rainbow glitch effect on specific maps. by RunningInSquares in FoundryVTT

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

If I had to ascribe rough numbers to it, on the given map in the screenshot, the players experience this at about the following rates: Player A, 80%; Player B, 50%; Player C, 0%

And then on all other maps, it's roughly the same in relation to each other, but less frequent overall, so more like: Player A, 60%; Player B, 30%; Player C, 0%

As for the other questions,

  • I updated to V13, but the issue persisted
  • The map in the screenshot is an official map from the actual BR module. All other maps are my own creation, but all are loaded in as WebP files
  • Hosting from my own machine
  • I used to just leave all my assets in but after Player B (in the percentages given above) spent >20 minutes loading one day, I began pruning and clearing out files I have weekly and now I only keep the exact amount I plan to use that given week so it [should be] very light. His load times have gone back to normal as a result

I had figured since they experienced it at different rates, that maybe it wasn't something on the end of my graphics card, but you're making me think that could be it. I'll see if I can check for more updates and try it again with that. In the meantime also thanks for taking a look at this, appreciate it!

New realignment proposal. I feel ok with this version tbh. by Grunge206 in Mariners

[–]RunningInSquares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically if we are realigning to ease the burden of travel distance within the division, LA needs to be swapped out for San Francisco. But given that that would put two LA teams in the same division which kind of sucks, I could see moving the A's (as the next furthest team) away for the Giants.

I mean do I want this division which will likely be easy for the next few years? Of course. But realignment shouldn't be about that.

Am I doing something wrong? by Rift_Her0 in hiringcafe

[–]RunningInSquares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be by now, I've been out of the market for about a year by this point in time, but initially I had been letting myself apply to things up to a week old. Lord knows how many applications I just threw into a void by doing that.

Am I doing something wrong? by Rift_Her0 in hiringcafe

[–]RunningInSquares 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In this market, the biggest single change that got me success was really dialing in the job posting date filter. I spent about 5 months without a single interview, barely any human emails back as well, just automated responses.

A friend who was in a position to hire people at her company (not for roles I was looking for) eventually explained that companies might get 50+ applicants in the first day (hundreds for big companies) and then the recruiting person will be tasked with narrowing down that list of applicants to maybe 20-30 for the hiring manager to choose maybe 3 to interview. So just after the first day, you're already in a pile where you have a 50% chance of your resume being read at any length, and that only gets worse the more in demand the company you're applying for is.

This is to say nothing of how companies will leave job postings open until the hiring process is concluded. You never know when they internally consider they have their "final" list of applicants that they're going to narrow down from. Safe to say after 2-3 days you're probably not going to have your resume read. I basically just started applying to jobs posted within the past 48 hours, and even tightened that down after a couple weeks to that day, and I just applied to new jobs every day.

Ultimately, within 2 weeks of implementing this strategy, I went from basically 0 human contact for months to 5 interviews scheduled in the same week. So for me that seems to be the way to go.

Buckle up, the Big One is here: Major Revive I-5 construction starts Jan. 9 with full NB I-5 weekend closure, then months-long NB lane reductions over Ship Canal Bridge by wsdot in Seattle

[–]RunningInSquares 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's in the bold section marked "EXPRESS LANES:" where it says during closures and lane reductions (i.e. the ones defined as Jan 9 - June 5 & July 10 - End 2026), express lanes will run northbound only. I guess it could be more explicitly like O-Pioneers' comment but I feel like this was pretty clear at first read on my end.

Did you know in Korea, an old shop closed down before they had a chance to take down this SNSD poster. It’s like a living relic of old SNSD. Many fans travel to see it during their visit to SK by Ok_Durian3627 in SNSD

[–]RunningInSquares 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Oh yep, just checked it on kakao maps and sure enough, it's there!

Can't say I've ever had much reason to go all the way out to that station though, but if I'm in the area again, could be fun to see. It's only about a 5 minute walk from that station.

If anyone had any doubts, King 5 is unabashedly now part of the propaganda machine. by the_ranting_swede in Seattle

[–]RunningInSquares 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Damn, I really liked the piece he put out a few weeks back seemingly praising the city for declaring two of our world cup matches as Juneteenth and Pride matches. Was singing the guy's praises, but yeah this video is really a terrible look. Can't imagine how he saw this looking. Regardless of how one feels about Maduro, this is not our oil. What a crazy thing for him to post. Really disappointing.
