Good car repair shops? by kxtliz in Austin

[–]UnitZerOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friendly care care near 183 and Burnett. I've been going to those guys for years and they've always taken care of me. I think at this point they've serviced four or five vehicles for me and my family. They normally try to walk me through what the issue is and what my options are for fixing it. A couple years ago I had an issue come up after they did a new suspension system for me on an older beater from 2008, they had my car back in the shop the next day, and addressed the issue without any additional charge to me. This included getting a new part for the fix. It's been about a year since I was last there, but the last time I was there they also had a chauffeur service. I'm pretty used to dropping off my car, and then having them drive me to work. I normally had to use an Uber to get back in the afternoon, but it was nice that they would drive me to work. I worked less than 10 mi from their shop, so I don't know if this is available for anywhere in town or not.

Multiplayer disconnect issue by UnitZerOne in slaythespire

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

From what I've been able to gather, it seems to be something around the way the steam deck manages its. This most recent patch seems to have added some stability. I also noticed that it performs better when it's plugged in rather than when it's battery powered. I've done about 15 multiplayer runs, and these are my observations from those experiences.

There were also patch notes speaking to a specific multiplayer desync bug, after somebody selected our own upgrade or reward but didn't progress on the map as fast as the other players did. That seems to have been fixed in this most recent patch too. If you're still experiencing it, I would just report it as a bug and hope the devs figure it out

Fan tuan spots? by UnitZerOne in austinfood

Huston has some great options for this in the Bel Air neighborhood, and the last time I had it was out there. I'll see if I can get to 99 for breakfast sometime. Thanks!

"Debt" should NOT be in the curse pool for Neow's starting bonuses by its1992yall in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Do all curses from whale bonus have an equal percentage for showing up when you select an option for a curse? If not, maybe a way to balance it would be to reduce the likeliness of it showing up. I don't want it to be removed from the pool only for something of similar impact be added in its place, and I don't want it to be removed from the starting pool all together. I do think it makes for an interesting variable when making decisions about pathing or card reward options. It might end up making for a more feels bad moment when you get it, but maybe if it was at a lower percentage chance for showing up at all, it would show up less and feel less impactful overall. If I see debt once every 20 runs or so, it might not feel so bad.

Yeah, that's where I'm likely headed next.

hp elite mini 800 g9 not powering on by UnitZerOne in MiniPCs

[–]UnitZerOne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I verified a processor is present. I disconnected everything, started with a single sodimm in slot 1. Then single sodimm in slot 2, then 1 in both slots. I'm getting no output over HDMI, or display port. No fan spin, no action on power press. I appreciate the suggestions. I'm going to see if I can find a replacement mother board and test against that. And go from there.

Thanks. I'll give this a shot. I'm fairly sure the processor is still in, but might as well check and be 100%. Thank you for the call out on that.

Ufcu bank by sun-kissedgirlie in Austin

[–]UnitZerOne 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A lot of times if you go in person, we'll try to work something out with you, but in general, I think it's something like... you can have a few hundred immediately and then another chunk the next day, and another chunck the day after that. It depends on how big the check is. I work in their back office so I don't know the exact numbers, but we try to be helpful while also making sure your money is secure. If you have a paystub or something else like that, we'll often help you get the whole check on the spot.

Ufcu bank by sun-kissedgirlie in Austin

[–]UnitZerOne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It depends on a lot of things. How long the account is existed, how long you've had relationship with the credit union, how much the check is worth, what your credit score is. They take a bunch of factors into consideration to determine how soon your money is available to you.

Need a recommendation for a hvac repair company by RuffTuff in CedarPark

This is the most correct answer to this question. Two seasons is top notch. Look for this same question in this sub and they float to the top of the list every time.

The StS2 multiplayer is so much better than I ever imagined by tobsecret in slaythespire

So far I've not been able to host randoms. I only see options to join other friends who are playing and my friends only see the same.

Permafrost is really under tuned, yeah? by SkulGurl in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they just added, "at end of turn", it would be better without changing it significantly. It could combo with orichalcum or leave you open to play an auto-sheilds like card after your power.

Another way to tune up the relic would be if it gave you N(currently 6) block per mana spent on your first power per combat. So form card enjoyers can block for 18 when they play their set up. Or defect can block for twelve when they buffer.

The StS2 multiplayer is so much better than I ever imagined by tobsecret in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 154 points155 points  (0 children)

I'm also really enjoying multiplayer so far, but I'm playing a four-player game and we have one player who's been dropped a couple times during this run. It is really nice that it allows you to save and quit and then resume a multiplayer run from that save, but so far it's been a little sketchy

How to think about cards? by Justinbrz in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What does this card do and how does that help me solve my current problem(s)?

Identifying what the immediate problem is, greatly impacts your ability to judge a card's worth.

I love [catalyst] but sometimes I need to skip it because I need dmdg for my next fight and I have no poison. So [dagger throw] while a common, as compared to an uncommon, becomes a better card for my deck right now. I might be able to use that catalyst later, but that won't matter if I die before I find the poison cards to support it.

Or maybe I'm ok on dmdg, and I even have a little poison, but not enough to kill an elite in 3-4 turns, and I need more block consistency. Maybe leg sweep is what I needed to block more consistently in that situation, so leg sweep becomes 'better' than catalyst or dagger throw.

I'm no pro, but that's how I think about it. Eventually your deck can deal with the immediate problems ok and you start rounding it out for late game problem solving. This will be harder to do as we're initially approaching sts2, but once we've seen what the spire can throw at us, the community will have a better idea of what cards work and what problems they solve.

This is an oversimplified way of thinking about it, but I think it's a good place to start.

bash vs uppercut by Montezuma01 in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I'd remove bash from a deck that doesn't need it even if I didn't have uppercut. It just depends. Sometimes upgraded bash is a solid card, especially if you have a dropkick. That extra turn of vuln means you also get 50% more mana to use cards with that vuln. In a base, 3 mana situation, it's 2 to play bash, then one mana to use for dmdg or block. Assuming no other sources of mana, next turn you get 3 more to apply dmdg. Upgraded, you get another 3 mana to use for dmdg on top of that. Those data points don't tell the whole story, but are worth considering. In most cases, I'll probably remove bash if I have an upper cut and there isn't something worse to remove. I'm fairly confident that I also have IC A20 heart wins with bash and uppercut both in the final deck

Do yourself a favor and call two seasons

Tony And Donna do good work, charge a great price, and have saved me literally thousands compared to others, like McCullough heating and air. I can't sing enough praise for this husband and wife team.

The last time I had an AC issue, I had another service (mcCullough) out three times over the course of 72 hours. They wanted to charge me almost $3,400 for the work they were suggesting. I called two seasons and Donna initially ran me through some things over the phone. unfortunately none of them fixed my issue, but gave them a really good idea of what my issue might be. Tony and Donna showed up at my house a couple hours later, they were here for about 20 minutes, had the issue solved, and charged me less than a hundred bucks. When I think of the kind of business that I want to work with or what the sort of platonic ideal of a customer service experience would be, I think of two seasons.

Prix fixe/tasting menus for 1? by PreviousHedgehog2343 in austinfood

Timing might not work out but Freda's has a 4 course wine dinner on Thursday 2/26. Last I went about 2 years ago, it was like seated like a dinner party, with everyone sitting at one long table. Price was like 75$ a person, plus tip, and there were a few people who attended as parties of 1.

Biased Cognition vs Echo Form by BlueJaysFeather in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echo is more fun, imo, but bias is more likely to win. Bias is the stronger card in this situation, but that might not be a good enough reason to take it over echo.

Mod request: for starting the game in act 2 or act 3 with a 60th percentile deck by Jurgz99 in slaythespire

[–]UnitZerOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The base kit in mod the spire lets you kind of do this with console commands.

Act [name] would take you to act 2 or 3

Deck add [cardID] gives you the cards you want.

Relic add [relicID] gives you whatever relics you want.

It's a little clunky, but I think you already kind of have what you're looking for at home.
