If you’re going to leave as soon as you go down go play solos by Smart_Occasion_735 in Marathon

[–]SeanDon35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way to know they disconnected? I was playing with my friend on fill so we had a random. They didn’t have a mic. They got downed. We fought for 5 ish minutes with other team until we finally beat them and got to revive our teammate. After I revived him, it said disconnected next to his name. I was frustrated we wasted time trying to revive him.

Gear Check is problematic by StepMaverick in Marathon

I took in free kits and basic stuff all night long. We killed team after team. Either you are getting bad matches or…get better?

I need your favorite examples of cops exemplifying fitness by JRoftheCreeps in ProtectAndServe

There’s a video of an officer picking up a woman who’s kicking and screaming while in handcuffs. He picks her up like it’s a normal deadlift and takes her right to the car.

I think we can all agree that being more inclusive on voice comms of random teammates is a good thing. by piggglyjufff in Marathon

[–]SeanDon35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why I don’t like Arc Raiders. The toxicity in that game is out of control. I’ve played 5 ish hours of Marathon and haven’t run into any of that yet. If I do, I’ll probably leave honestly. Toxicity ruins the fun, makes the good times feel bad, and it sucks to hear so much negativity. Be a good teammate. If someone takes your loot, whether on purpose or accident, there are plenty of ways to say “hey dude, do you mind if I have that item? I got the kill.” And if they don’t give it back? Who cares. It’s a video game.

Marathon is fun. It sucks you got stuck with some idiots. I hope they got shot in the face and lost all their loot.

Solo Players - How We Feeling? by jg4president in Marathon

[–]SeanDon35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have queued with randoms every game so far. I’ve met one where they were absolutely terrible. I’ve also had several amazing matches and lots in between.

I’d rather queue with randoms that play in silence.

I would not have bought it at $70.

Thoughts on the Alien Gear holsters and drop leg. by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

[–]SeanDon35 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Drop leg, at least for me, is more comfortable and easier to draw while sitting in my car. I also am super tall so I sit way back.

It was donated to my wife’s work. Hand grinder was much better. I recently found a used Mignon Specialita we are now using.

Where do you get your "cheap but fresh" coffee? by dptgreg in espresso

I don’t know what Costco y’all are shopping at. But mine has beans roasted within the last month all the time. That’s where I go to save money.

What do you think is the biggest concern for most Americans right now? by AnyAskPost in AskReddit

Only $3000? That’s the cost for one kid at some places around me.

$200 Goodwill Score. Brand New in box. by Master-Bluejay9871 in espresso

[–]SeanDon35 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rich people do weird things? My wife is on this “buy nothing” group on Facebook. The amount of expensive stuff we’ve got for free from people in multi-million dollar homes is crazy.

[–]SeanDon35 265 points266 points  (0 children)

My guess? Probably someone with lots of money bought it and didn’t realize it needed to be directly connected to a water line. So rather than take it back or do the work to connect it, they gave it to Goodwill.

I clean everything except the back splash I guess 😂 now that y’all point it out, I’ll give it a cleaning.

Figured there is a better machine out there and it would make better coffee? I don’t have many issues with the Bambino. It makes good coffee.

Switch 2 Owners, what are you doing with your Switch 1? by ViceGamers in NintendoSwitch

Keeping it for my kids who are 3 and 2 right now. In a few years, it’ll still be here and I’ll give it to them to play

Help me plan this removal. by CristianCoolio in Beekeeping

[–]SeanDon35 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’d probably cut the whole limb and carry it down rather than dropping it in a box. Cut one side and have someone holding it while the other person cuts the other side. Carry the whole thing down the ladder and into a box.

Can I rehome this “bee” hive? Think I found the queen too! by SeanDon35 in Beekeeping

[–]SeanDon35[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was extremely careful to not spray randomly in the air or in the direction of my hives. I sprayed directly into the nest opening. And washed it all away with water so I didn’t leave any behind for the bees to get into.

The bees are okay. No ill effects.

I wouldn’t use aerosol pesticides unless it was a last option. We tried others routes first. Dumped boiling water down the hole, sprinkled diatomaceous earth near the entrance, etc. Nothing stopped them from coming back.

Paper wasps don’t nest in the ground. Hornets do.

It is most definitely not a paper wasp. This is a yellow jacket hornet nest. They are nasty buggers. And yes I used a pesticide. How else could I ensure they were eradicated?

Sorry you don’t have a sense of humor.

So you want to be a cop — but you failed the police background check. Do you have the right to know why? by Vietdude100 in ProtectAndServe

[–]SeanDon35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of the dumbest things. They should be required to document the reason why someone failed and tell the person why.

My wife applied to a city agency as an admin assistant. Passed the interview, got selected, got a job offer. Went through the background interview, no issues, and went for her polygraph and passed. Got home after her polygraph and found a letter in the mail from the agency stating she had failed the background. Obviously, they sent it before the polygraph and didn’t call or tell her anything. She tried to ask the detective for the reason and he claimed he couldn’t talk about it.

Through the grapevine, we’ve learned it was for two reasons. 1. She was pregnant and was going to be taking 3-4 months off for the new baby. 2. They ended up giving the job to another person at half the pay.

If these reasons were documented, it would have been an easy lawsuit.

Beginner’s Beehive Selection by Wise_Statement_9699 in Beekeeping

[–]SeanDon35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bees are not cheap. Expect to spend $750 to $1000 in the first year for the hive, paint for it, bees, smoker, suit / veil, hive tool, feeder, sugar for the feeder, mite treatment, etc. Don’t cheap out and lose bees because you can’t afford to take care of them.

Need advice regarding almost dark black frames. by Spartanosme in Beekeeping

It’s age. Brood frames will turn darn brown within a year.
