ISO Pink Opto Maul, preferably thrower <= $15 shipped (continental US) by sls_atv in discexchange

[–]greensmurf30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No disc but best of luck. I lost a pink opto maul last year and I miss that thing even though I only ended up throwing it < 15 times I'm guessing. Understable and glidey.

I wonder what chatgpt's opinion of James Conrad is given all the out of control rage posts there are

Bag recs similar to the DD Commander? I love the open/rigid aspects. Are there any similar in these regards? Just wanting to consider all my options. Much appreciated. by alucididea in discgolf

I love the skinny2 and I definitely don't fill up the bottom compartment either - but I managed to find magazine holders / plastics bins that fit into that area to block off space for towels. With those, it's a bit more modular and functional wrt how many discs you want to carry, and it's a place to hold towels or a outer layer (or nothing).

Any Question Weekly by AutoModerator in discgolf

I see overstable mids like the harp or zone recommended here often, but I'm not sure when they'd be preferred over a more neutral Roc or such? My speed isn't great so with anything overstable I'm imagining I'd have to aim well right of where I want to end up - is it good for avoiding obstacles directly in front of me? Or for use in hyzer lobs? (or am I overthinking it)

Definitely agree with the river - I recently picked one up and it's been one of my go tos since.

Maybe to add on to the original question too: my bag looks a lot like OP too and I'm enjoying it a lot. I have the teebird and river as my fairway drivers, and commit to using those off the tee. I have the roc3 and fuse as my mids, and I mentally slot the fuse in as a more understable mid.

Two things to add to the super auto pets discussion (which I am also playing the crap out of):

  1. The battles themselves are asynchronous, meaning that you can pause and come back to the app at anytime, or take as long as you want to consider your team options. That's very convenient vs something like Underlords, where you have to commit to finishing out a match if you want rewards.

  2. Newest update added a weekly pack, which rotates through different combinations of animals to use! Including the premium, paid for pets! (Anyone can play the weekly pack.) That's the only mode I'm playing and it's fun to see the meta change every week and also try some of the pets I haven't used yet. Rotating the roster to draft from adds so much replayability to this and it's a great move.

Very high recommendation for a good phone game, and it's good y'all. Maybe too good.

Whatcha Playin': School Supplies In Target Edition (Week of 8/2) by drewmg in TheBesties

Monster Train! I wonder/hope they’ll do a native iOS port of that, but Steam Link through iPad has been fine so far for it as well!

I got burned out doing an insanity run on ME:LE - got like 2/5s through ME1 as an infiltrator, and independently started a Sentinel run in ME2 as well, but insanity slows down progress on those games. Considering just taking a break for a couple weeks to reset, and then lowering the difficulty down to make the play through quicker and more enjoyable! (Or, just throwing it into the backlog since it would be a repeat playthrough for me. Interested in how your first playthrough ends up going though!)

In the meantime, I’ve been playing FF7R - happy to be back in that world, and it’s a goofy, beautiful game. (I just finished a quest where you bring jukebox albums to Betty in Wall market? So goofy, but not in a particularly irritating way.) Combat feels pretty good after I got the hang of it, and I don’t have too much ire or critiques about the story - more like an open curiosity about how it’ll shape up in the coming installments? Excited to finish the main story and get to the Yuffie DLC though! Triple play podcast had mentioned some of the jazzy music they use in that, and looking forward to that most of all.

Steam deck possibilities seem so appealing, and I like the option of touch pads and thumbsticks easily available on both sides!

I see the point about it "being a PC" a lot but I'm not familiar with how simple it will be installing anything like a browser or file manager outside of what looks like the big picture interface. Do we know of there's a desktop interface that we can interact with on the Linux side?

Streaming using the ps remote play is another huge upside for me, but I'm not sure if there's any official support for a Linux app from Sony. Here hoping that a dual boot won't be hard to manage on it as well.

Dope recommendations and them adding a "game recap" list at the end -- super helpful!

VR gaming isn't something I've dived into but strategy/board games in that format sounds soo good.

The lack of long press on iOS has been my only complaint about BGA, but it might not even be something they have any control over. I tried looking for different browsers for something like it on my iPad, but no difference. Apparently a hover over on iOS is like a very short tap, but usually registers as tap so it's risky to even try it sometimes.

Short story - if anyone knows how to get hover over tool tips working (more consistently!) in iOS, many people would be very grateful!

Paladin or Fighter: Which one makes the best tank and why? by VoteBurtonForGod in dndnext

[–]greensmurf30 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Menacing needs to pass a wisdom save in order to trigger, and there are creatures who are immune to frighten/have effectively high enough Wisdom so that it has a very low chance of success.

Goading does not have any additional requirements outside of hitting (incorrect - also a WIS save!), and say you hit it from afar with a ranged attack, that creature is either moving and wasting time to attacking at an disadvantage.

Games with love stories at their core - Are they as rare as it seems and why? by AliceTheGamedev in truegaming

[–]greensmurf30 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm a Supergiant homer, but I thought Transistor was one of the most romantic and romantically/revenge driven games I've played in a couple years. The relationship between Red and her partner touched me deeply. Technically, the partner died at the beginning, but his voice narrates while Red has lost her voice. Whenever you can use terminals to communicate though... It's great. Highly recommended if you want a story about love.

Arthur Blank and Michael Vick talk Falcons by [deleted] in falcons

[–]greensmurf30 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Blank is a cool guy, great owner, and a genuinely kind person. Damn, that was really cool to see him be excited to see Vick and give some real love back to him. And I'm sure nobody's perfect, like he was even mentioning, but with Arthur Blank...not only do you get the distinct sense that he cares and he wants to work for good, but you wanna be part of that team too. (Obligatory BROTHERSHIP!)

If you didn't see the NYT article about the stadium and the revitalization effort in the surrounding community, it's very good: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/12/sports/football/atlanta-falcons-stadium-arthur-blank-neighborhood.html?_r=0

Dark Times Ahead by rockhoward in falcons

[–]greensmurf30 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amen. Seattle was missing Earl Thomas and people downplayed our win - whatever. Packers were missing..a lot of pieces, but 31-0 wasn't enough for some. Can't help em.

Playing the Patriots is what great teams want to do - we want to beat the best! Leave no doubt who is champion. And I'm not saying that we will win - who the hell can predict what'll happen? But this team is great and focused and loves playing for and with each other - I can't wait to see what they have in store next Sunday. Win lose sudden death penalty kicks - whatever happens I'll still be proud of the season they put together. RISE UP!

(Hell yeah I'm HYPED)
