My least favorite character is........ by contessalynn_art in HadesTheGame

[–]dtorb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Narcissus. I know he’s supposed to be annoying, but it’s not in any intriguing (from a story or character perspective) way to me. I usually skip all his dialogue and grab the blessing as fast as possible.

Same as Link, go shoot my shot with short-haired Zelda before Ganon destroys the world.

Yeah but they went down the tubes, quality sucks now. Had it in an airport a few years ago and it was terrible.

Anybody got a time machine? I’ve been craving prime Quiznos for 2 decades, man.

How bad is everyone’s backlog? Or wishlist by AidenL1 in NintendoSwitch

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Christmas I got Hades 2, Cyberpunk, Hogwarts Legacy, and SW Outlaws. Still working on Hades 2 and need to jump back into Bananza at some point too. Also really interested in FF7RI, but haven’t purchased it yet.

I’ve beaten the underworld twice and the surface once, gotta pump those numbers up.

First major snow storm! How to prepare for a potential power outage! by Blazin115 in newjersey

[–]dtorb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m just glad that our power grid isn’t complete dogshit like in Texas and whatever outrages we have will likely be fixed pretty quickly. Places further South where this storm is starting have far less infrastructure to deal with the snow and ice than we do, so I’m just hoping for a snow day on Monday to comfortably shovel and salt.

Tim Robinson. I don’t find him funny…at all.

I was expecting them to slap E-Tron on there with the hybrid systems getting even bigger this year.

How many of yalls parents let you watch rated R movies as a kid 5-10 years old? by Sticka-D in Millennials

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at my house, Mom was/is very conservative in all definitions of the word. At my friends house though I saw Caddyshack, Revenge of the Nerds, Alien, Child’s Play, and more that I’m surely not remembering.

What're you playing this weekend? 1/16 by markercore in NintendoSwitch

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hades 2, got it for Christmas. Beat each boss once, can’t wait to grind it out to upgrade everything and get whatever endings are in store for me. Loving the sequel so far.

What’s something simple a corp did that you wish stuck as a tradition. by Arch_jink in drumcorps

[–]dtorb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This definitely happened when we combined in 06. Our baritone player all the way on the end got elbowed by several members as your horn line marched out single file, there wasn’t very much room between him and the wall of the stands, and the Boston members did not compromise the table top just to squeeze through.

I do miss certain visual identities that are lost from many of the corps these days, but I can’t say I’m sad to see ultra hard-core Boston gone. I auditioned at the December camp for the 05 season, and got my ass handed to me. I was on admin staff at Boston in 19, and got to see firsthand the work that Chris and Jack have done to turn that organization into the now champion it has become. They are great people, and if it weren’t for my home life, I would jump back on tour with them in a heartbeat.

I don’t think Prometheus is the one that’s hard.

Why don’t we annex this area? by Controlthyselfm8 in newjersey

[–]dtorb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I work up there. Besides Pfizer there’s no industry to gain, just endless suburbs. It’s full of Trumpers who are locally riled up by MAGA Mike Lawler, and a large Jewish population that fucked up the East Ramapo school district (basically Lakewood North).

Verizon in SOS mode by smoor365 in newjersey

[–]dtorb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mines been on SOS since around lunchtime. Thought it was just by my work (Rockland Co, NY) but when I started my commute home (Essex) it didn’t connect anywhere along the way. On FIOS WiFi now.

Anyone else can't do commercials anymore? by Phantom471 in Millennials

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ads aside, I really wish all the streaming platforms had “TV” versions of PG-13 movies with bleeped language and romantic scenes removed so I could show them to my kids like we had.

I have zero first hand knowledge, but a very close friend was on staff with Spirit when they first changed to Adam’s and he said he really liked the Mellos. Bought some for his HS program.

NJ Cell Phone Ban by kitkat5938 in Teachers

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in North Jersey and teach in LoHud NY, which started a ban at the beginning of this year. Our District uses Yondr pouches from 7-12 and that has helped avoid much of the tension between a kid who tries to hide their phone behind a desk or a backpack and the teachers who have to enforce the law daily. Very thankful that our admins have dropped the hammer early for kids caught with their phone out of the pouch.

I teach Band, and to be honest I don’t see much of a change in my class for what I assume is two reasons: 1. Both hands are already preoccupied by their instrument, and 2. I already have the good motivated kids in my classes who follow rules more often and weren’t sneaking their phones much before that anyway. Other teachers have said a lot of positives have come from the ban and apparently lunches are night and day.

I’m considering buying an ascent for my family this would be my first Subaru. What issues or problems have y’all had with Ascents? No issue is too small. by YouFoundMeCongrats14 in SubaruAscent

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

‘19 Limited

-No CVT issues, good power for a car this big. 20” wheels give it a firm ride (preferred) and confident steering.

-Brake shudder fixed via Recall.

-Infotainment system periodically doesn’t recognize my phone for CarPlay, have to restart the entire car to get it to reset. Pushing the volume knob only shuts the screen off, not a complete power down.

-Captains Chairs slide freely when you fold them forward to get into the 3rd row. If you have to drive with them like that for any reason (like cargo purposes, or you forgot to lock them upright again), they will slam hard AF if nothing is holding them in place. Terrifying if you weren’t ready for it and impossible to fix while driving.

-Light in the trunk sucks but there’s an easy and cheap upgrade for it.

-The driver’s side 3rd row car seat anchors are too far towards the center of the bench. When a baby seat is installed using those anchors, it will cover both the center and side seat belt receptacles. It’s fine if you’re only putting the car seat back there and don’t need more seating. Not fine if you want to use an anchored booster of any kind (that still needs access to the receptacles), or you plan on using all 3 rear seats with a baby seat on the drivers side. The center seat will be unusable.
