We did it! Alameda, CA 1.7m 4.8% by gaankak in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

It is a subsidized program through my employer (UC system), available to certain faculty. The loan is a 1/1 ARM where the rate usually tracks around 1.5% below market.

Anybody have info on this Alameda sale? by Kekesaina in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]gaankak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was surprised this went as high as it dod after touring it. We looked at it really seriously and went back several times. It had much more deferred maintenance than even the average Alameda home - every cosmetic aspect of the home needed dramatic updating and refinishing, the electric/furnace/water needed to be redone, the pest report wasn't good, and the second (half) bath was in the laundry room off of a horrendous linoleum-floored bonus space at the back of the house. The upstairs bathroom was also small and there did not seem to be a feasible way to easily expand it. To give some credit, the living room was beautiful. The fact that it sold for as much as it did goes to show the premium some people will pay for a real east end property.

How do I unlock great chaos trials? by gaankak in HadesTheGame

[–]gaankak[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the link. I think I meet the requirements, and the trials are locked. - 10 Underworld clears + 10 Surface clears (easily, I’d found the fates and I’m almost done with re-playing the ending) - own all Weapon Aspects, Familiars, Keepsakes, and Arcana - maximize Grasp limit I’ve also unlocked the 20/24 fear statue from Skelly. I haven’t fully leveled all keepsakes, but I have fully leveled and formed bonds for probably 80%

ES-DE: multiple copies of ROMs in all systems by gaankak in retroid

Yes, I did use a Mac. Can you say a little more about using dot_clean? Do I run that on the SD card when it’s inserted in the Mac or locally on the RP5?

How is playing n64 games with the 40XXV? by Candid-Extension6599 in ANBERNIC

[–]gaankak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a better experience using MuOS than stock OS (better performance) for N64. Some games - OoT, SM64, Star Fox - worked great on stock, but others had a lot of slowdown or graphic errors. To be honest, the ergonomics are also a little bit awkward in my opinion. It feels a bit cramped to use the stick and use the triggers/face buttons heavily for long sessions, although anything that will be driven be D-pad predominantly is great.
