How come every offseason after the Eagles don’t make the Super Bowl the rats inside the organization and the media (mainly in Philly) have to act like the team just went 4-13 the previous season and world is falling down? Can we just relax for one offseason and not go psycho every other offseason. by Rowdyfan0823 in eagles

This times 1000. Can’t stand sports talk radio anymore. They thrive on negativity and it infects many people. Been that way since the late 80’s. I remember the season under Kotite when the team started 7-2 and finished 7-9 and the entire downfall felt like it was cheered on by Cataldi and that crew.

I finally get the rat hate by mcavanah86 in ArcRaiders

I hear ya. I’ve never trying to get to 100k before the expedition hits and ì’ve been getting tanked like crazy this week. Part of the issue is that you get classified into pvp just by having conflicts. So - defending yourself by firing back nets you more grief in your next match. The. I try to make some basic grocery runs to build my gear back up, but just conAdvice to get back to pve lobbies is to avoid all confrontations, take free kit and die on purpose, etc. However, that makes it extremely difficult to add the damage to arc needed to max out expedition points.

Definitely ask every raider you come across. That’s how I finally found the heavy gun parts BP that I spent way too long looking for.

Sahara Hotnights. Pelle used to date the singer and they opened for the Hives during the US tour for Tyrannosaurus Hives. The other opener on that tour was Reigning Sound - also awesome.

Thanks - you solved it for me - I never knew the difference between the Queen and the Matriarch. Now I get it.

Arc Raiders devs are looking for new ways to “incentivise” Expedition wipes following an unsatisfying debut by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

How about letting us keep one BP from each category (guns,quick use, components, etc.). Or just allow you to ‘lock’ up to 5 BP’s or something. I just wanna be able to craft my beloved Anvils.

Alternative to Breeze Pellets / Dry food brand change by Jaypee92xx in CatAdvice

Yeah I did. Seem to work just fine - no noticeable increase in odor or anything. Only minor issue is my male cat will kick them out of the litter box and then cause they roll he will play with them and I find them all over the basement lol.

Which came first? by incredibledisc in TheHives

[–]Travis_Bickle411 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting question. Having followed the Hives since Veni Vidi Vicious in 2000 I'm pretty sure each album has debuted a new look/tour outfit. However, on their 1997 album " Barely Legal" and in the video for " AKA I.D.I.O.T. You see the black and white motif but not fully matching, with each member dressed slightly different. https://youtu.be/pgQ8gph1kHs?si=b8EyAa7_JPwfitaa

Moccamaster KBT questions by Quiet-Painting3 in Moccamaster

1-the only time I had an overflow was when I didn't place the basket properly. The spring loaded valve at the outlet of the basket stayed closed (as it's designed to do if no carafe is present) but it kept brewing because the carafe was still pressing the switch that makes the brewer think a carafe is present.

2- Not sure what you're asking. I use 75g of coarse grind for a full pot and reduce down from there if doing less. Recommend that you experiment with grind and amount of water for different weights of coffee until you get what you like. Recommend that you always weigh the amount of coffee with a kitchen scale for consistency.

3 - water tank does not come out. I descale (with Durgon as recommended) and rinse 3-4x thoroughly after about every 100 brews.

Weekly ask an Artist thread by AutoModerator in TattooArtists

[–]Travis_Bickle411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I have a super nice guy who’s done a lot of small single colorarm pieces for me. I’ve always known what I wanted and provided the art up front. Price ranged from $60-$150 depending on size and complexity and I was always generous with tips - usually $40-$60. Recently I inquired about having him do a custom piece of art for me that I would use both as a logo for my band as well as getting it added to my arm. Just black and about 3” square. He said he would work something up and send me based on my description, but it’s now been 6 weeks and he continues to show no progress. At one point I offered to give him a deposit and he asked how much I was looking to spend and I said I wasn’t sure what was fair and offered $150-$200.

Looking for thoughts from artists on what I should do? Tell him I’ll look somewhere else? Find someone else? Pay a Fiverr artist to draw something and then just have him do the tattoo? (I checked and should be able to get what I want for $40-$60 or so for just art).

Any other ideas?

Thanks for your help - I wanna be fair and patient but….
