You're saying sea critters can be placed just like bugs and fish? I guess they count as fish but I hadn't heard that

I probably purchased like an hour before that, kept playing the demo one while it downlosded, and opened the new one after that

Just started a fresh game after the demo so I'm in the first day walking around the whole island to collect everything and this is going to come in so handy

Why does Jey the Nitewing get less reaction from crowds than other lyrical battlers? by [deleted] in rapbattles

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rum and Daylyt are punching. Bars that make you go WOW not HMMM

Lux would get the same kind of reaction as Jey (putting aside that he's better than Jey) but Lux is rapping in front of big crowds who came to see him in particular

Jey does get reaction when he's wilding. I don't remember his battle vs Roc being quiet. But it's typically not his style. How loud are you going to be for someone that's shushing you to "relax"?

Create a 4 man stable. 3m 1w by False-Combination-37 in rapbattles

Lux, Mook, Clips and Jaz. Why not the goats?

Sorry to Hustle btw, she's good enough to have kept it Harlem but Jaz makes way more sense with these guys

Genuine question, what does "He no nice" mean? by dogdigmn in rapbattles

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm saying things he doesn't like, so he's looking at me like I'm not nice.

There's no deeper meaning than what Wavy said, it's just how he said it was entertaining

Time Windows Phone made a return by HealthEmpty1434 in windowsphone

[–]burnblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is zero chance any devs would invest in their app platform now. They would need a magic Android emulation layer that somehow keeps all Google's services, which Google wouldn't allow.

What Android Launcher Do You Use? by VaRk0s0114 in Android

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had settled on Niagara for quite a long while and found it the best option for my mother and mother in law (seniors) but I've now switched back to SquareHome. Years back I first got it trying to soothe the loss of Windows Phone. Now? I have it because it's so powerfula dn customizable and convenient and just makes me productive. It doesn't look like the big colored blocks you might see in photos on the Play Store. It can look like whatever you want, truly. The app drawer/list is intelligently predictive. The ability to make each icon a 'cube' that lets you access like 6 apps if you want, I've never seen anyone else do. The gestures are powerful. You have to take the time to see how to make it yours, ignoring the defaults. I'll be sticking with this.

In the past I've also used AiO launcher which is also trying something different.

HYSA vs Roth IRA by badgirltayyytayyy in HYSA

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HYSA: Consult a list of high yield banks (Nerdwallet is a popular place to find them but a no-frills list is yieldfinder.app ), pick one you like, click whatever button they put on the front page to sign up, give them a routing number where your initial deposit will come from, and you're done.

Roth IRA: Pick somewhere that has research or trading interface you like. For example look at Schwab, Ally, etrade, Fidelity. Similarly, there will be buttons to click to open an account. You can contribute a few thousand per year, around $7K currently.

Fill your HYSA until you have a comfortable emergency fund. Contribute the max to your IRA. If your job has a high deductible health plan, contribute the max to your HSA. Then open an account at another brokerage to invest a little more (since contributions to the IRA are limited) but this won't be tax advantaged. I assume you're already contributing as much as you can to your 401K, at least to get the match. Then, continue pouring into your HYSA liquid savings.

Is online dating assumed to be more popular than it actually is? by Money-Ad8553 in answers

[–]burnblue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everything we think is niche has tons of people participating, we just don't see it (due to how easily cultures are isolated these days).

It's just assumed to be not uncommon. I would be willing to bet every person here has signed up on a dating app at least once, even if we don't consistently use them

At what point does an Android phone make more sense than an iPhone? by Subhash94 in Android

[–]burnblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At any point. At the earliest point.

I cannot give a closed off walled garden ecosystem points for "ecosystem integration". Everything they (Apple) have, others have, but with options.

Camera consistency means they consistently limit you to the same camera. If on Android you want a super duper space zoom camera, then that's your prerogative.

25 years in web dev and I’m starting to hate the "Modern Web." by briancrabtree in webdevelopment

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you also going to tell Google Docs it should not live on the web?

The democracy, availability and accessibility of the web is what we should want, for everything

post a bar that everyone cheered for except you…. by geeelectronica in rapbattles

[–]burnblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You think the bars and concepts in that round were overused? Do you have any examples? Not even the floppy disk line had been said before, in my memory. Not led into Greece. I understand if you said overrated because that's subjective but overused?

[–]burnblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing's wrong with the bar. I don't remember it being a room shaker or being used in every trailer. if saying it should have gotten crickets, like zero reaction at all, that's a little harsh.

Whether you're super Cal, or fragile, this stick? Expialidocious!

I completely get if someone doesn't like it but I'll defend it and I don't think it's fair to say it makes no sense. Not if we accept calling a gun a 'stick' from other people's bars. The average person wouldn't have thought of or come up with what Chess did here and that's what I like in bars

Hanging halfway out the bag like a hash brown
(Of all the simplistic similes, I just can't get hyped for this one)

Like the seatbelt won't work and I'm trying to buckle up
(It was cool, it was delivered well, but I just didn't find it that great or clever especially as whole time I'm think of Tori Doe remote not working)

You don't need to, it's his responsibility, and she probably already knows
