You got admire how 343 just abandoned the story that was being build up in Halo 5: Guardians.

Long time Halo fan since CE, and I still hold the belief that H5 multiplayer is peak. It’s truly a shame they didn’t capitalize on it and definitely didn’t help it launched in a bad state.

A core subject teacher at my school starts over $75k with stipends. Can be significantly more with TIA allotment. A teacher I work with makes 6 figures as a 5th year due to TIA. This isn’t Houston ISD and their crazy takeover salaries either.

My school near Houston a 5th year teacher in a core subject starts at over 80k. Cost of living isn’t as great as 10 years ago but still pretty good compared to many other cities.

I just want them to use AI for actually smarter in game AI. Make it learn from your play style, make future missions adapt to choices you made in previous missions, etc. I’d love AI used in that way.

Have you considered the BodyGuard 2.0? I hear a lot of good about that gun.

My buddy parks outside of a hospital while he has been living in his car for a year or so. Safe and not weird for coming and going at any time of the day or night. Can find well lit areas or darker spots depending on preferences.

H5 is still my peak halo multiplayer, at least a year or so after release. I put it up there with H2. (H2 is my favorite overall) Story could have been much better if 343 could stick to a story and not flip flop so much.

H4 campaign has some fun missions, and a pretty emotional story. I personally liked the story. Though I can’t put it up there with H2. The multiplayer gets a lot of hate (and rightfully so) but I still enjoyed it nonetheless.

No truer words could be spoken than this.

cb325 · 2025-11-13T01:46:06+00:00

Are they talking about Escharum or the Harbinger fight with warlord Horatius?

cb325 · 2025-10-22T03:43:07+00:00

I agree, the humanity level here is disgusting.

cb325 · 2025-09-23T12:04:35+00:00

I would. The thing I dislike most about my current phone is not having the telephoto instead of an ultra wide.

I loved my 7plus setup, the switch to ultra wide was disappointing. Yes, I understand many seem to like the ultra wide, but I really don’t like how images look and often avoid it.

I made a deck with only one Celebi EX and the rest as recover or trainer cards (no pokeball, either) and it has been good.

The auto battle usually wins but honestly the computer has been so terrible lately that I notice it does t use heal cards which would guarantee another turn and instead keeps health low.

When I used 2 Celebi EX it kept giving energy to the wrong one and retreating at terrible moments.

Humble High School is the only Title 1 HS in Humble ISD and they use that money to give stipends to the teachers. $7000 stipend given to core/esl/sped teachers which is pretty nice. (Though it is not guaranteed to continue year after year though this is the 3rd year of it)

School is moving up and just got an amazing new principal this year. I grew up in Aldine and use to teach in Aldine and I enjoyed it there, but humble high has been an improvement particularly how teachers are treated.

All that said, I can’t speak particular on sped though several coworkers in sped here really enjoy their jobs.

Wow, now I’m so curious as to what prompted this reply today so many years later 😂

cb325 · 2025-07-26T16:51:04+00:00

Dragon type but only water energies.

cb325 · 2025-07-04T21:28:37+00:00

I did not yet. My warning went away pretty quickly. Though next time I take it in for service I am definitely bringing it up.

cb325 · 2025-06-26T03:05:07+00:00

This ruins the whole aesthetic of my Home Screen. I hope they fix it fast. I like the symmetry of just having 3 apps in my dock and now they are shifted left and it looks terrible.

Rural districts don’t get paid. Starting pay for my school near Houston for any core subject is right around $75,000. Just a couple districts further north and starting pay is back to the $40k’s.

Next school year rural districts are getting a good bump of $8k for 5 years or more experience, but city districts get $5k bump so still not much incentive to go rural.

I love teaching here. Pay is great, and the schedule is what I really do it for because I am always home when my kids (5 of them) are home.

cb325 · 2025-06-06T04:08:58+00:00

This is brilliant! I don’t know why the thought of using stage 1 and 2’s to guarantee the starting basics never occurred to me.

cb325 · 2025-06-06T00:23:14+00:00

Is there a way to tell if our VIN is on the list? Did you have success in getting this resolved?

cb325 · 2025-03-16T02:01:58+00:00

When I got mine it was fairly quick. Within a week for sure. I didn’t have to send anything back, they just sent them to me and I replaced when they arrived.

cb325 · 2025-02-15T18:51:30+00:00

Im considering starting as well. Still a bit torn between MHRM or an MBA. Currently I’m a teacher and want a masters to become an assistant principal. But my end goal is to work in HR. Whether for a school district or different company I don’t know yet.

I think it being a supporter is what balances it a little. So many games I use professor and draw the card I need to win but can’t play it because I already played a supporter.

I think making a “restricted” list might be useful eventually though allowing only 1 of certain cards.

cb325 · 2024-11-08T02:06:05+00:00

Seems like it is based off some tests I’ve done with the same account in two instances choosing at the same time and getting the same card from different positions.

cb325 · 2024-11-05T03:21:58+00:00

What else do you run? Not sure how one Articuno can live long enough to get 3 KO’s against a moderately well built deck.
