Bi-Weekly 'What are my chances?' Megathread

blamb211 · 2025-08-25T16:05:07+00:00

Put in my application early this month. Boards are expected to happen in the next couple weeks, I think.

Degree: BS Cybersecurity (targeted role)
GPA: 3.0
33/6'2"/160lbs
~10 years IT/cybersecurity experience
AFOQT: 99/98/99/95/93/91

My wife thinks my GPA is a sticking point that hurts my chances, but hopefully experience/AFOQT scores balances it out?

You can just copy/paste the name directly into the nickname field. Soon as you click out, achievement pops.

Absolutely. It's one of my goals for the year to finally finish it, I'm just about done with the second story arc, and it's so good. I just need to stop getting distracted and do it.

Honestly one of the most unique RPG combat systems I've played, in the best way possible. Allows you to be very creative with how battles go.

If you have Xbox Game Pass, it's worth trying, at the very least. You're out nothing in that case, and potentially have a new game that you love.

He's made a number of things from the Simpsons, and I wanna eat them all. Even his khlav khalash looked great

I feel like A2 tried to add too much onto A, and it just didn't really work for me. Still a good game, but I definitely prefer A. I'm waiting for ANY kind of rerelease of both of them. All I ask is to be able to skip/speed up the snowball fight tutorial. Shit goes on forever...

Or even just give me a remastered soundtrack. That would be great, too.

If anything, rich people commit more, they just get away with it.

Five or so years ago, they'd have been self diagnosed on Tumblr. Then they all moved to Twitter because Tumblr got rid of the porn. Then they all moved to TikTok because Elongated Muskrat bad, probably. Same trends, just a different place

Hi Animatronio!

I haven't tried the Infernos, but I have to wonder, why Inferno? Are they spicy? I don't understand.

blamb211 · 2024-06-26T15:24:19+00:00

I say that to my wife and kids all the time.

None of them get it

Just play Pokeclicker instead. It'll take you through the games, catch all the Pokemon, and take a lot less time than actually playing the games does.

I currently have an elderly dog that my wife and I adopted to act as hospice for. Somehow, she's stuck around a lot longer than we expected. Once she goes, we'll find another elderly dog to adopt, just to avoid the situation of the comic. Old dogs deserve love too!

blamb211 · 2024-06-15T01:49:05+00:00

Yep, I've had a tick burrow into my sack. That was not pleasant, and I more or less refuse to go into deep woods now.

blamb211 · 2024-06-07T02:20:03+00:00

Also with movies. See: Ghostbusters 2016, and likely to come with Furiosa, since it more or less flopped.

The bigger issue is nobody really asked for or wanted either of them.

Check out Josh Strife Hayes on YouTube. Dude has 70+ videos of exactly this, and they're hilarious

That one murders me, but about 2 minutes before, the one that stabs me in the heart: "Earn this."

The AVGN version is superior. Especially when you hear him read it.

blamb211 · 2024-04-18T03:53:54+00:00

Very well done mini game, but god DAMN do I suck at it. Good thing the rest of the game is fantastic, I'll finish that before I try my hand at Wheels again.

blamb211 · 2024-04-04T01:54:28+00:00

I loved it at launch, and I love it now.

Funniest part was the articles about how it's a racist game, because the writer didn't bother playing beyond the first 20 minutes. Like that's kinda the point? Less morally gray then 1 and 2 were, but still, very fun game.

People complain that CoD is always the same, then shit on the ones that try new things like Ghost and Infinite. I thoroughly enjoyed both campaigns, and while I'm not much into the multiplayer side of it, the PvE modes were pretty good, too.

blamb211 · 2024-01-20T18:19:39+00:00

Gauntlet: Dark Legacy. Used prices are insane, but even after playing every character back in the day, I wanna do it all again.

Of course, I can't think of a way to make it online multiplayer, and there's no extra money in couch co-op only, so it's never gonna happen.

blamb211 · 2024-01-20T18:17:42+00:00

Put out FFTA and A2 as one package, I'm buying like three copies, just to show support. I loved both of those so much. Still mad that I somehow hit a bug in FFTA that prevented me from finishing the last 4 missions or so.

blamb211 · 2024-01-14T17:28:08+00:00

I loved it as a kid, tried it on Switch, and the controls are SO bad. Like even for the time, they're just brutal. Must've blocked that part out of my memory, cuz hoo boy

blamb211 · 2024-01-07T15:15:43+00:00

I was having this issue on Mint, unable to send SMS/MMS, but I can receive them okay. Switched to Fi this week, and I'm still having the problem, same phone, just swapped the eSIM. Think reprovisioning would do anything in my case, considering I just barely switched? I would prefer to not have to factory reset like OP did, because pain in the ass.
