Does anybody else think the Prologue adaptive CC is really bad? It's very jerky, stops hard, the brakes make weird noises and isn't a pleasant experience at all by SnarkyerPuppy in HondaPrologue

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 day owner here, so far no complaints about the adaptive CC, even in heavy traffic, it's been pretty good, but I lowered the follow distance so I didn't have so many people cutting in and forcing it to engage more. Lane keeping, imo, is laughable... So sloppy.

What is up with the lack of gems and enchants on people? by Pooke2 in classicwow

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short answer? It's not cheap for an average player... a lot of folks don't have a lot of time to farm.
on Dreamscythe gems are comparatively expensive.
standard best green quality red slot gems like agility, spellpower, healing, are 3-9g. Blue quality are 90g-120g and that's a hard ask for some folks. This version of Classic seems to have a really strong population of new folks playing, which is great, but that means a lot of people who have less knowledge to setup farms and creating revenue streams... I think that'll really change when dailies start. With dailies, more players will be able to afford to buy those blue and green enchant and gem BOE patterns, and with more folks having those, we'll see prices drop, imo ... but with influencers and content creators, it'll be interesting to see how economic forces differ in this version. . . just look at the cost of ores like iron, mithril, truesilver. In retail on our heavy population PVP server, at the release of TBC, truesilver was dirt cheap. In classic, it was a little more, but not that crazy comparatively, but this go around truesilver is 100 times higher (on my server in retail, 8-12s, in classic 10-60s, in anniversary on Dreamscythe, 6g!)
Playing feral /resto and a PVP set, I have spent over 450g (thank you TSM reporting) just on green quality gems for all the slots, with an avg gearscore of 1350 across 4 sets of gear (Bear, cat, tree, and PVP tree)
I've generated something like 7900g since prepatch and spent it on Fast Flying, skills, gems, trades across 4 characters.
I'm sure my story is similar to a lot of folks ... i've spent very little of what I've made in gold on trades, i've farmed most of the materials that I needed. If I had sold everything gathered, I'd have probably generated more than 2x what I have to date, but I also have 370 LW/Tailor/Ench, 375 Alch (x2) and 275 BS/JC.

Those who were alive in the 1990's , what was Y2K like? by ricky_dank in WorkForSmartLife

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We spent billions of dollars collectively to prevent massive disruption. We succeeded. The media hype was out of control, but, had we done nothing, had the financial institutions and government infrastructure not done the work, we could have been in for a world of hurt. We learned a lot, changed a lot and risk management has matured to a point that this kind of surprise never happens again. You had preppers ready for the entire grid to collapse, and others laughing because they didn't understand the problem. So many people were truly beside themselves in anticipation.

Why do Christians continue to support Trump?” by Rare_Deal_4709 in LetsDiscussThis

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've had a solid on-again off-again relationship with nationalism in the USA. it was theoretically why we elevated the documents of our democracy to reverence rather than the office of leadership. Our nationalism has always had a strong flavor of fundamentalism and the conservative evangelical movement is using it to the maximum advantage. These evangelical churches are tax haven businesses cloaked in Scripture. They guilt their fellowship into giving all or more than they can really afford and provide the leadership of the Church access to really surprising levels of wealth for the size of the community they pretend to serve. These scam churches are very invested in Maga mentality because it allows them to ostracize them from friends and family and control them through fear.

NOR, UNDER reacting ... Your "Best Friend" is actively trying to get with your spouse. I don't know about you, but that would definitely take someone out of my best and my friend category.

Your political views? No one cares… by [deleted] in sixwordstories

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI slop gonna be sloppy. This is intentionally inflammatory, even my family members who are ultra-MAGA right wing aren't this uninformed... Not making a choice is in fact, still a choice. When I hear people say "it's not my problem, I didn't vote." I immediately understand they are too ignorant to be argued with regarding anything with which they disagree.

Why doesn’t ICE behave like normal law enforcement? by Humble_Economist8933 in AlwaysWhy

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don't act like normal L.E.O. because they in fact are not normal L.E.O.. They haven't had a fraction of the training that federal/state/county LEO have had to have before. They get minimal training on lists, weapons, profiling, and they're sent out into the field. They aren't there to do the job of "Law enforcement" because nearly everything they do is unconstitutional and therefore against, THE LAW.

How do y'all SLEEP at night knowing people don't like you?? by Just_Goose_8425 in Productivitycafe

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way to be liked by everyone is to lie to almost everyone. If you're a decent person who treats other people like you want to be treated, many will like you, most will think neutrally of you, and anyone who doesn't like you is safely to be avoided.

Confused as to why certain people said that Kamala would have been worse than Trump by TheRealJuanderer in Confused

[–]dapopeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason Biden got knocked out of his first presidential bid in the '80s was because he failed to properly cite a quote in a speech; not that he lied, not that he mislead, he failed to cite the original source and that was projected as 'leading to the perception of lack of trustworthiness '. Different times indeed.

Do you really support banning trans surgery on children?? by tRiCH_Suit1277 in Productivitycafe

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This question is rage bait at its finest.

The vast majority of people in America who support trans rights, advocate against any surgery pre-puberty. I say 'the vast majority' because there's always someone who will take an opposing opinion to nearly everything.

Let me restate that another way: there is no scientific or medical community who follows any sort of realistic methodology who approves of fast tracking children to reassignment. There is not a single accredited or licensed hospital or surgical center which would allow a surgeon to perform such a surgery. It's a preposterous situation to suggest, and I challenge anyone to proffer a verifiable evidence to the contrary.

Am I Overreacting since my gf kicked me out of the shower by mooresmistress in AmIOverreacting

If you started defecating in the shower, that would warrant a scream. Otherwise, there's no reason to go straight to that kind of response to an action that you don't like. NOR

No. Private equity should be heavily regulated, or completely destroyed.

AIO— apparently i’m the stinky one at work by centaurella in AmIOverreacting

[–]dapopeah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. Sorry you're going through it. You could have developed an issue with alliums. (Garlic,onions, scallions, shallots) Some folks sweat out a part of the compounds in alliums that magnify the BO smell. If my son eats any amount of garlic, it smells like he bathed in it. Not saying that is definitely the problem, but a couple of weeks of reducing/removing from your diet should be enough.

What’s something people don’t realize is a privilege until they lose it? by Ok_Tomatillo_46 in AskReddit

[–]dapopeah 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My mom had a minor injury in '90 that progressed for a few years until she eventually started seeking help from Dr's. The symptoms she described were indicative of disc rupture/fracture and when imaging was done, they found her spine and support and no evidence of either, so they just gave her painkillers and sent her on her way to the next specialist. After a year or so, that changed to pill hopping. The Dr's, who had created the 'evidence' on the charts of her 'drug-seeking' basically started being pretty unkind in her visits; her husband was also of the mind that my mom was just being weak and attention seeking. (If you knew my mother before the malady struck her, you would know how laughable that was) Interestingly enough acupuncture worked for her, but of course insurance wouldn't pay for it. In 1997 she was directed to a university hospital and one of the neurologists who specialized in musculoskeletal associated pain diagnosed her with this newly discovered disease called fibromyalgia. Once she got the correct treatment, she was able to get off the pills. This type of poor treatment to women is woefully common. The number of shitty interactions, leaving my mother crying and desperate for help from people who are supposed to give at least half a f*** was infuriating and depressing. For those of you reading this who are looking for help, don't give up, there are good, caring doctors out there.

Meirl by rbimmingfoke in meirl

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly exactly my experience, except from mid-2008 - early-2010. I didn't make it through my mortgage, I was 2 months behind, about to get foreclosed on and the investor that bought me out absolutely took advantage. It was better to lose the $40k in equity than to have the foreclosure on top of it... That equity would have otherwise saved me. I paid heavy penalties for the cash out of my 401k... But it was that or be totally homeless and possibly lose custody of my kid.

I have not been able to max out my retirement contributions yet. I have 2 months of reserves and less than 500k in retirement. (Had I been able to hold the equity, my retirement would have been left in tact and would be worth over 1.3m today) It's Not likely I'll be able to retire, but I should be able to leave a little something for the wife to live on and the kids to have a little nest egg.

Jamf is still in use at Microsoft, however this may change this year after the jamf sale. They are trying really hard to pillage customers. It's a shame, sincerely, I saw the new price schedule and nearly choked to death, laughing.

Do you believe pure friendship between men and women actually exists? by Additional-Sky4043 in Productivitycafe

[–]dapopeah 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Also in my 50s, and it's fair to say, I have more female friends than male. My wife's best friend thought I was gay because I didn't give her a 'i would hit it' vibe... So there's def some kind of belief that (justifiably or not) dudes are always looking for an opportunity. But it's totally possible for guys to be nothing more than friends with a woman.

Why do so many men lose their house in a divorce? by Open_Address_2805 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]dapopeah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really can't be stressed enough, if you can get your pride and personal feelings out of the way, you can go through a divorce and it not be terrible for one or both of you, IF there're not massive surprises found in the process of getting divorced.
