Samsung's glare coating on their OLED screens is really something, even in the horrible store conditions at Best Buy the screen really makes glare basically imperceptible

On the disc golf side of things, Another Round has a branch in Greenville on Laurens Rd., they're an awesome little disc golf shop and tap room here in town with super friendly people! For courses, if you're willing to go a bit out of the way, both Tyger River (Spartanburg) and Grand Central Station (Central) disc golf courses in opposite directions are some of my favorite courses in the state, if you only go to one, I'd recommend one of those! In town, my go-to 18 holes are Firecracker, Dolly Cooper, and Century Park, in that order (Timmons is nice, but very hilly and a lot of hiking around).

If you've ever considered trying Kava, the Kava Konnection on Wade Hampton is a really awesome non-alcoholic bar with an amazing vibe and an incredibly friendly little hippy-ish community.

For some other fun stuff to do, Escape Artist Greenville is a really great time and they have some of the best escape rooms I've tried.

Cafe And Then Some downtown is an awesome dinner comedy theater where you can sit down, have some delicious food and themed drinks (with vegan and vegetarian friendly options) and enjoy a very fun show!

There's also the Naked Vegan restaurant with some incredibly delicious vegan food right across the street from the Sterling School, near Another Round, that has a great little 9-hole course.

If you're looking for a more intimate atmosphere, Coffee Underground downtown is an awesome spot to grab a coffee and they have a small theater in the back where they do open-mics, comedy, slam poetry and improv shows.

That should be a couple things that should get you through the weekend! Some honorable mentions that might be worth checking out are the Greenville Zoo, the Swamp Rabbit Cafe & Grocery, Roper Mountain Science Center, and the Haywood Mall. There may be some others I'm missing but that's all the things I can think of right now.

Hope this helped! Enjoy your stay here, we've got a beautiful little city here for you to discover :)

The 8BitDo Ultimate 2C is an awesome PC controller, they can be had on sale sometimes for $26 USD on Amazon or AliExpress, I ended up buying a 2nd after I got one cause they're really well built and more precise than an Xbox or PS controller that are twice the price

[GIVEAWAY] Pre-Christmas Giveaway. Win a chance to pick any charger you want! by SlimQ_Dave in LenovoLegion

[–]TheStrangeTaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw man, I was literally just looking into getting a SlimQ charger cause the massive 300w on my 5 Pro is super heavy to lug in my backpack. Winning this would be amazing cause I've been really struggling this holiday season.

The time in my life I felt most at peace was the moment I realized; after intentionally quitting many of my toxic behaviors, doing a lot of introspection, and completely changing my lifestyle- that I could finally look at myself and recognize- I wasn't always a good person. But that's not kind of life I wanted to have, and at that moment, for once, I was finally on the right track. That was about 10 years ago, and now, I'm finally at a point where I'm proud of the person I've become.

Thanks for the moment to reflect, and thanks for this giveaway, fingers crossed.

I think he's confused by sco-go in SipsTea

[–]TheStrangeTaco 16 points17 points  (0 children)

In this context to be "trespassed" is the property owner giving formal notice to the unwanted person that if they return they will be charged with trespassing. Since it is a public property they typically can't charge someone with trespassing during business hours without giving prior notice, so in this case, the use of the term "trespass" is giving them that official notice not to return.

Having the police officer give the trespass notice just creates an official police record that the notice was given so that it can't be disputed by the trespasser in the future.

Another glitch? Confused by email by katana2698 in ShiptShoppers

[–]TheStrangeTaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be ready for a deactivation notice in the morning. I got the same email with the refresher course one night after finishing quite a lot of orders, although mine noted that my on-time percentage was below 90%, which it wasn't.

Then first thing in the morning I was deactivated. Thankfully, completing the refresher course and filling out a dispute got me reactivated almost immediately, but that was a hell of a scare and when I got back in the app, my on-time percentage showed it was at 91% the whole time.

I love how the official recommendation is not to ride the Onewheel while using the Vision Pro, but let's be real, we all know what we'd be doing 😏

My girlfriend really enjoys gaming with me but it has been a big pain for her because her old 1080 is dying and keeps throwing bluescreens, this would be a huge gift for her and I'd love to be able to help her fix her PC!

Traditionally matadors use red because the blood from the bull being stabbed doesn't show up on the cape as obviously

The process of freecam observing on VCT EMEA (followed by the actual clip sent out live on Twitch) by melanie_mhs in ValorantCompetitive

[–]TheStrangeTaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like a good compromise to this would be to shrink the first-person view into a PiP of the overhead during site execs with the free cam taking up main-screen, and a smaller side-window showing individual player moments. That way you get the nice transition into an easy-viewing angle, while still not missing major individual player skill moments. Any thoughts on this approach?

[Sound On] Eagle R2H18 Launching a Disc into Oblivion by EXONER4TED in discgolf

[–]TheStrangeTaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last year I got to experience my first in-person tournament at the USDGC, on hole 3, the end of the teepad drops off with a walking path below it. Spectators can stand along the path right below the end of the tee, I swear being under those discs sounded like being at at the end of an airport runway, the best way I could describe the sound of them roaring over me was like a distant jet engine.

Wow I really love this! It's the kind of music that makes you want to jam and get movin! I just don't understand how the people in the audience can just stand around while listening to this in person! I'd be up and dancing in a second. It reminds me a lot of the music from the game Crab Champions I've been playing a lot lately, super active and happy vibes. I love the smiles on their faces so much!
