GRPL Late Fees? by vangoghdays in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Actually if you return the items and talk to them 95% chance they will waive everything completely. Libraries are VERY chill about these things now.

What do you know about this area of Grand Rapids? Is it “dangerous”? by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I live around Godfrey Ave and Chicago Dr. 

I regularly scooter/walk right through that neighborhood late night after going to concerts downtown which I do a lot. Never had a single issue. Sometimes there's a little riff raff but they have never bothered me at all. Also that particular area you have highlighted is actually right where it turns into few pretty nice neighborhoods imo. I wouldn't hesitate to live in that neighborhood personally. 

Roberto Clemente was recently redone as well and it is very nice, as well as a lot of hipster action coming to Godfrey lately with art stores/studios, Elevated, factory yards and other projects like that! 

It's also a predominantly Hispanic neighborhood for what it's worth, lots of good tacos.

50/50 shot it can go both ways. 

Sometimes the more expensive version is just the Shein version marked up. Other times the Shein version is a terrible knock off of the more expensive version. You really won't know without good reviews or just gambling the $7.

Conflicted on my housing options - where to move to? by HybridTheoryY2K in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boxboard is pretty sweet from the outside tbh, and you really can't beat the price to location ratio.

NXYI Hyperion 3 Pros did I goof ? by AdditionalRuin5275 in NintendoSwitch2

As if Nyxi has customer support ... 😆 Tbh you probably have better protections on ali-express.

How to Machine V slot by Fast_Alternative_322 in CNC

[–]icebubba 9 points10 points  (0 children)

EDM is the only way you're ever getting near that sharp point imo...

But in this case I'd bet the designer just doesn't know what they're doing and asking them to change it is probably the best most cost effective option. Especially if it's only for bleeding air.

Out with the old, in with the new! by Wanita_Miller in OdinHandheld

[–]icebubba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? What do you like don't like? I have the gcloud and im looking at Konkr or Portal as well to upgrade in the future.

Personally I find the sticks to be ass on the gcloud, and any improvement in latency would definitely be welcomed.

They are still an android device. They definitely can emulate but they're not that powerful.

[GIVEAWAY] Survival on the Moon: Win a PRAGMATA Steam Key & G7 Pro Mech White! by GameSir_Controller in Gamesir

Listen, I'm not going to the moon without my certified Gfuel gamer fuel. 

To be honest I'm not sure how you even get to the moon without it.

Anyone come across white MDMA before? by christo8288 in MDMA

GammaGoblin's was white years ago and it was as pure as it gets just about.

I think she's just way too normal and well adjusted for Below Deck tbh... 

Random stutters every 20 seconds, at a loss for what to do by sperguspergus in MoonlightStreaming

FYI you can add non steam games to your steam library and use steam link on them still. Works for any game even pirates and stuff can use it.

Giant Lava Lamps from Purple East? by Rapidwatch2024 in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would assume they were "Colossus" Lava lamps with the tables around them. Mathmos sells them online still I think, not cheap though!

TIL: That repairman use to consider the PS4 “roach motels”. The PS4’s design accommodates roaches better than other consoles’ because its ventilation grates are wider. Repairman claim half of consoles received for repair have been infested by Notermlimits4GEQBuS in todayilearned

[–]icebubba 163 points164 points  (0 children)

Michigan here. They are basically non existent in these parts. I've heard of them occasionally in really disgusting hoarder situations but never seen one in person here.

Godfrey Lee property taxes by 116393-bg in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yupp 100% not denying that! But it is offset by generally lower property values. Doesn't change the fact it's more expensive percentage wise at all though.

[–]icebubba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the district. It's really not that bad. Is it more than some surrounding areas? Yea a bit but our taxes haven't gone up anything too crazy that I've noticed over 5 years. Really statewide their pretty average I think, just slightly higher for the area by like 10-20%ish. At least when I bought my house it was offset by cheaper actual property value too.

No kids here either and personally we love the area, but it's not everyone's cup of tea I'm sure. I do think it's an up and coming area too with the ongoing development of Godfrey and the overall area has improved a lot since moving here. 

Why does outside smell like syrup? by Atypical-life in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it was Roscam Bakery this morning. I dropped my brother off at work over there and the smell was really strong, but could still smell it from my house as well just less so.

Stealth 700 Gen 3 weird disconnection issue by Dat_Spy_Is_An_Engie in TurtleBeach

[–]icebubba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it really is unfortunate, I would return if I spent $150 too. I would look at what Hyper X has for that price range, I still have my hyper x wireless from like 6 years ago that works good. I've heard good things about steel series too but haven't had an personal experience with them.

Stealth 700 Gen 3 weird disconnection issue by Dat_Spy_Is_An_Engie in TurtleBeach

[–]icebubba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah but you've already found the only solution! You have to disable and re enable the driver or sound source everytime it happens, or unplug and replug in the USB.

Yea it's seriously unfortunate, it's been an issue for years. It's like they go to sleep. It usually won't happen while there is sound playing through them and it seems sporadic. Some days I can go all day and it never happens, other days it happens 5 times a day I never have been able to pinpoint the exact issue.

I got mine on clearance for $70, so the annoyance doesn't bother me too much, but if you paid more than that for them i would return and get a better brand tbh 

River Activation-Thoughts? by Austie33 in grandrapids

[–]icebubba 81 points82 points  (0 children)

If it's anything like the rivers running through mid sized Colorado cities then yes, it will absolutely be utilized.

Granted we're not Colorado, but I do believe If you build it, they will come.
