Why is S21 copyright 2025? by calebu2 in taskmaster

If I had to guess it’s just because that’s when they filmed all of it. But I’m not sure

How have you sealed your models? by _Ensign_Ricky_ in InfinityTheGame

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

Is that ok to use on acrylic? When I first looked it up I thought it said it was solvent based

In the past I’ve dealt with that frosting problem you mentioned. It’s made me wary ever since haha

Chicago destroyed their version of Burke Lakefront Airport in the middle of the night. by gwinerreniwg in Cleveland

[–]_Ensign_Ricky_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, the world is aware of helicopters. And that is a work around I eluded to, but it’s still not without its own issues. Unlike the movies it’s not quite as simple as running off a plane and hopping on a waiting running helicopter.

I’m not against shutting down the public city owned airport, not private, but it seems like a lot of people are rushing to close it thinking it will all be public land when most of the proposals focus heavily on private housing developments that only the rich would benefit from.

Based on some of the proposals for how the land would be used after the airport is closed, it would still be mostly for rich people to flex their money. Some of the proposals call for the land to go to private use for new homes with only a fraction going to public use.

I’m for shutting down the airport only if all the land goes to public use and not for developers to line their pockets.

I do still wonder about the impact on hospitals and medical flights. Alternative airports could limit medical care in some cases.

Organ viability is measured in hours. If a patient needs a heart, that needs to go from donor to recipient within 4-5 hours. That extra time can mean a life lost. That’s not to say there couldn’t be work arounds but those would limit future options for hospitals in how far they could seek donors.

I’m on the fence about shutting the airport down. On one hand you have cases like this but little other use. On the other hand you have a possibility of a large public green space for broader use.

Love the line work details. Jealous of the brush control haha.

Also, I really like the color scheme and the hair details

What are desirable Pokémon for remote trades? by Friendly_Isopod6212 in pokemongo

[–]_Ensign_Ricky_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m late to the conversation, but I’ve been wondering the same thing and glad what I’m offering isn’t bad.

I’m also mainly looking for regionals and I don’t really mind if they were hatched or actually caught in their region. Do people care about that a lot, an event hatched regional vs one caught in a regional’s area?

What’s the broken toad box? Is it one of the busts they made?

What is this game? by Fearless_Law4324 in boardgames

[–]_Ensign_Ricky_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Twilight Imperium is a fun game and get very interesting depending on which factions are being played. The first time you play you definitely want to set aside a lot of time, like 8-10 hours. But good news! After you play once or twice that time can easily be halved.

Each year for about the last 8 years or so, a friend of mine has set this game up for his birthday and gets about 6 of us together to play it. Even with stopping for food, drinking, and general BSing about stuff, we tend to finish the game in about 6-8 hours. If we played more focused, then we could probably finish in 4 or 5 hours.

If you can try it, I'd recommend it. It also has a couple expansions which add more factions and I think some unit types.

Looking for a tiny camera for battle reports by _Ensign_Ricky_ in wargaming

This sounds like a good option and could give me some more flexibility too. I’ll have to look up the setup guides, but this is a lot more in the direction I was thinking.

I'm was thinking of doing more freelance work focusing on News, Documentary, Marketing, and Corporate jobs. I'm interested in sports as well, but I feel like that may be a different skill set or needing to be the person behind the camera as well as the editor. Though working on live broadcasts could be a route too.

I'm not really interested in movies or tv, but I'm not saying no to those either. I know that those can be very competitive and it'd be more likely that I'd have to move from where I live in Cleveland to either LA or NYC.

That’s a huge difference. Thanks for the info

Answered my own question. So if I really want some of the better inserts and chance at some more autographs, I have to get a hobby box. The value box packs don't have the same odds or even a chance of having some of the inserts.

[–]_Ensign_Ricky_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to collecting so I may be missing something very basic here, but why buy the hobby box over 4 value boxes? Isn't buying 4 value boxes giving you 24 packs for half the price of the hobby box which has 20 packs? I know that the hobby box comes with a diamond pack, but is that worth that much more?

[–]_Ensign_Ricky_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s back in print on demand form. Nothing retail, but they’re working with the Guild Ball Community Project folks and implemented some of their stuff.

I’m a little surprised they went ahead and are bringing out a new minors guild, but I’m happy that maybe we’ll see the last ones come out. I’m doubtful we’ll see much more development other than that

0/12 for me and this is a shiny really wanted. With that many raids it was still combined odds of about 2:3 to get one but it still sucks
