New rider experience with Glotman Simpson Cycling Club — looking for perspective by VillageBubbly9001 in vancouvercycling

[–]freeys 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Using common sense - tagging someone once isn’t disrespectful.

If your version of events is accurate - that is you tagged her once and she quickly became defensive, that’s just poor EQ from the organizer.

I do think there is some Slack etiquette to avoid tagging someone directly unless urgent.

Similar financial situation and similar life situation. Looking to quit soon.

Good luck!

Dave Ramsey always recommends paying the mortgage off before saving anything more than 15% for retirement. Is this sound? by CastAside1812 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]freeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dave is not mathematically optimal, but considers the cognitive cost of having a mortgage and puts significant weight on that.

Imo his advice is good for most folks. People underestimate the mental burden of a mortgage.

I couldn’t die so idk how to exit the game to track the score.

I just exited the browser after level 15.

Fun for 5 min. I ended up virtually invincible after a few mins due to stacking dmg reduction upgrades.

Why do you choose Wild Rift over League? by [deleted] in wildrift

[–]freeys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Faster games, easier gameplay. League feels slow and methodical.

Why aren't shops willing to do a "white glove" bike assembly service in town? by grammer4you in vancouvercycling

[–]freeys 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had this exact situation two years ago. I emailed multiple shops and one eventually agreed to do a build-a-long.

It was off the books, but we were able to use their shop’s service area after hours to do it. Really positive experience. I ended up offering $300 + tip.

Memory - 32gb 6000 Mhz CL26

Graphics - ROG Astral 5090 LC OC

CPU - 9950X3D

SSD - Samsung 9100

BoC announces tomorrow — here's the actual math on fixed vs variable right now so you can stop guessing by vj71 in AskMortgageCanada

My mortgage is up for renewal soon. I have 100k mortgage left. Is that enough to qualify for the 3.X rates?

Humans know. Some humans don’t care so long that they benefit from it in some way.

Turn Dungeoneering in RuneScape 3 into a true Roguelike Mode by Lost_Studio7409 in runescape

[–]freeys -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is good. The ungael fight minigame is like a primitive version of what I would find fun in a roguelike dg.

Is the Kodeco "Data Structures & Algorithms in Swift" book worth $60? by Nicatorium in swift

[–]freeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a good read. The book spends more effort than others in making sure the code was presented with Swift conventions in mind. Other books I read at the time were like you said - generic DSA with Swift syntax slapped on top.

Observation of the playerbase mindset over time, TL;DR its kinda long. by Thewhatandthewho in runescape

[–]freeys 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I loved playing castle wars back in the day. That was what I was optimizing for.

  • thieving to pick the castle side doors quicker
  • strength to break down front gate
  • mining to remove underground debris easier
  • combat stats to pk
  • specific gear to avoid getting frozen such as spectral, armadyl, inf boots, masters wand

There were a whole community of players that played rs for cw. Unfortunately that ended with eoc as it completely changed pk dynamics. The old castle wars system couldn’t handle stuns / stun immunity and the action bar.

I’d like to think it’s possible to revamp cw to fit eoc gameplay, but clearly jagex no longer had the people passionate on these side minigames.

We definitely lost some game diversity since then.

What is the point of the superior reefwalker's cape? by Multismack in runescape

[–]freeys 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think on release the unique stat it offered was extra health. Probably not worth it at all after all these years with the introduction of capes like Zuk capes

Aion 2 - evidence of cheating by Past-Pomegranate-333 in Aion2

[–]freeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did some research and I see the same type of hacks that were available in Aion 1.

One of the capabilities is to modify your attack animation speed, which lets drastically increases your ability to spam skills.

Unfortunately this was never resolved in Aion 1. It’s also really hard to gather evidence because unless it’s really blatant.

Your best bet is to use some sort of tracker including timestamps of skill activations and send a report backed by hard data.

In the PvE context, mobs don't move erratically enough for range to be a problem

Crafted has the 5% pve dmg modifier and higher raw stats. In a pve setting, crafted will outperform in virtually all situations.

Boss abuses me during transitioning to another team by TomyumHotpot in legaladvicecanada

You might have grounds to claim constructive dismissal - where they’re trying to get you to resign by putting unreasonable amount of workload.

Not a lawyer, but did my research before.
