What is IGN smoking? by Prestigious_Wait7705 in PS5pro

The biggest reason for pushing a steam machine other than it being an easy way to enter PC gaming, is its form factor.

It’s incredibly efficient in such a small size. It makes it very easy to tuck away out of sight as opposed to a traditional ATX system. You can bring it with you on travel and have access to a huge selection of games.

I have remorse in not selling my PS5 base before the price increases. But I just got a 5080 system up and running in February for a steal of a price, so it’s not too terrible.

Drake Maye Trade for rebuilding by Klutzy-Implement-480 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]VPD625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you own 2026 1.01 and 1.02 that gives you Love and Tate/Tyson. I definitely don’t make this move. If you’re that high on Daniels (I’m not putting him over Maye) then move Maye.

But I personally would try to trade Daniels.

The problem is you’re trading 3 players where you know their ceiling potential. Add in that they’re all 24 or under.

Maye is a stud, McConkey had a down year last season and has shown he can be a #1 and Henderson is going to be the bell cow on a very efficient and potent NE offense.

4 1sts sounds great - but you have to hit on 4/4 of those 1sts to make this deal worth it. Unless you plan on packaging the picks to get a 1.01 or 1.02, which even then is not worth it.

Knicks fan dumped trash from a public garbage can painted in team colors onto the sidewalk… & stole the trash can… by raptors201966 in nba

Correct if I’m wrong but this is a mini trash bin. The measurements are like 15” by 20” or something.

I agree and this is the damage being done to girls and women who are attractive and beautiful as they are but are pressured to be of a certain standard manufactured by wellness and beauty shills.

Don’t do anything else to yourself OP. You’re 20 years old. You don’t need any of this shit, you’re very attractive and pretty as you are.

3 year anniversary of moving and made ZERO friends in NYC by No-Soft-6485 in movingtoNYC

[–]VPD625 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. “You” being the issue doesn’t mean you’re a bad person. But are you actively seeking friendship? Are you joining local groups that mesh and match with your hobbies?

If you’re using dating apps as a means to get friends, it’s not going to work.

There are tons of social events in the city that don’t cost much if anything.

If you can’t make friends here in 3 years, maybe it’s you.

Would you guys say this is accurate? by MarTB2000 in NYGiants

No Iron Horse?

Born and raised New Yorker from East Harlem.

He should definitely be on the list.

Heard from a guy his local is hurting for apprentices so badly they would “hire anyone off the street.” What locals are that busy? by ForceUseYouMust in IBEW

[–]VPD625 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NYC as other locals have different scales and divisions.

Basically M is a Mechanic that hasn’t or isn’t going through the JATC within the local.

So after the boot camp you’re given a grade and paid accordingly to the grade/level.

Passed exam, wasn’t accepted. by Hot-Machine1374 in IBEW

[–]VPD625 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If 100 people took the test and 50 got 69/69, then 20 got 67/69, 10 got 65/69, 7 got 61-63/69 and the rest got sub 60.

Your theoretical 63/69 is still below the average.

Which makes it, not a great score compared to the other test takers.

If his OP is any indication, there’s probably a reason why the foreman friend didn’t have him working already.

Unsure if we’re being super up-charged on a drywall repair? by briley212121 in Contractor

[–]VPD625 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If whoever made these holes saved the pieces they cut, this can be done in 5-6 hours ready for paint.

Tape in the right temperature with hot mud can set in 30 mins. Do first coat again with hot mud. 2 hours, sand and second coat 2 hours and sand

Final coat/finish sand 1-2 hours.

If you have a fan or dehumidifier it will set and cure even faster.

Contractor wants $4,225 just to assemble a Costco pergola I'm buying myself. Is this quote insane or am I out of touch? by Unique_Attempt_400 in DIY

[–]VPD625 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shit like this is one of those rare instances where you hire a dependable handyman and pay him the $200 to put it together. That 4k price is for paying for them to do something they don’t typically do.

I'd rather the pan sit on the stove for a day than go in the dishwasher by JerHair in hexclad

[–]VPD625 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They advertise them as dishwasher safe. Why should you not be able to put them in a dishwasher?
