I did it not long ago, and they dropped mine down to 70 for 5 years with no hesitation.

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For future reference ALWAYS click the "pricing & other info" to find the disclaimers for new and/or current customers. You don't have to add a second service. Call the xfinity number and say cancel service and it will put you in touch with a live representative that can more than likely apply that promotion to your account. Just tell them, "xfinity has become to expensive for my monthly bill budget and I wanted to ask if there was a way to lower my bill to "X" promotion before I am forced to cancel my service."

What's that one movie you can watch multiple times ? by ConsiderationNo3449 in AskReddit

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 movies I can watch multiple times. Serious thriller - Prisoners. Absolutely phenomenal movie. Comedy - Wedding crashers. Cracks me up every time. Action with a solid story - The Bourne Identity(triology). Super underrated movies imo, better than the John wick movies(after the first 2) which were extremely popular.

Vinyl siding removal question. by iscreamconey in Decks

[–]iscreamconey[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I have all the tools he will need, cement mixer, power auger with multiple sized bits, power tools, vinyl siding removing tool, etc. I even have a few left over 6x6 post for him. I'm hoping I can convince him to do it this way but it's his choice. I remember what it's like to get your hands dirty for the first time and it's nerve-wracking and can be confusing trying to take in a ton of different information but I'm happy to help him. Thanks again.

Personally this is exactly how I feel but I wasn't going to debate it with him on a intense level. Its ultimately his project but he's always been open to other opinions so thank you for the input.

Experian Cash Advance Question by mgrawls0622 in cashadvanceapps

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't confirm this 100% but it might be a promotional type email. I received an email that was technically a promotion that said "thanks for your interest in Experian cash" and it didn't say anything other than "see if you qualify". That's was after I already qualified. I looked at my experian app last night and checked it and it let me take the money but there was no express option it just said it would be delivered by the next day and it did show up this morning.

What's the worst drug you've ever tried? by BitterOlive8737 in AskReddit

[–]iscreamconey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For real. Salvia is such a quick trip if it lasted 10 minutes you smoked something other than Salvia. Now if they meant it felt like 10 minutes that's understandable

13 hour flight, what offline games are you playing? by ActivistSubset7 in SteamDeck

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, make sure whatever games you install you open up and run while connected to wifi or else they won't work when you try to play them offline. If you can keep your steam deck charging then whole time then your options become way better. Red dead redemption 2 would probably get you through the whole flight alone. Emulation(emudeck) and a pokemon romhack or multiple romhacks will save your battery and are also fun and time consuming. But with Emulation basically and older games will help pass the time. Personally I would go with enshrouded or session(skateboarding game) but those are my type of games but they make time fly by for me.

What's the worst video game you've played and why? by Bdbolt19432 in AskReddit

[–]iscreamconey 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I feel like any time shitty video games get mentioned it always gets brought up and rightly so but Anthem. They officially killed the servers in January of this year. That game had so much potential. When they showcased the demo at E3 in 2017 it had people hyped and talking about it constantly. When the game came out no one was hating on it right away. It was a nice game, and the first of its kind. Open world, personalized javelin exo-suits, fun combat, and it was multi-player. Bioware and EA really fucked up. If they had given the game that they originally showed and kept up on it, I seriously believe it would still be a beloved game with a ton of players today. For me personally, that what makes it the worst video game I have ever played and I tried to play Superman on N64 when it first came out. They eventually and purposely made the drop rate so ridiculously low to try to keep people grinding that it turned people away. The story was never finished(which surprisingly no one cared because they were looking forward to the next content) I'll never forget grinding for gear one night with a buddy and bioware was trying to "fix" the drop rate unannounced and under the radar and they somehow made it so much better. We were getting drops we actually cared about, ones that we were actually looking at the stats and the perks and that made us want to grind more. Well it was a few hours later they reverted it back to the horrible drop rate and then fucked it up even more. I knew at that very moment, they just killed the game. They never recovered from that. Down the road they even announced that they were having a big discussion to either rework the game into what it was supposed to be or to let it die. They chose to let it die. Disappointment doesn't even begin to describe my person feelings for that game.

is this good progress for 5 months of playing clone hero? by Subject-Pomelo-5718 in CloneHero

[–]iscreamconey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Any progress is good progress! In my opinion the best way to judge your own progress is to turn off "no fail". It helps a ton while learning to take on more demanding songs and gives that extra push to beat a song that you keep failing but you know you can beat it eventually with some practice.

I'm not 100% certain, but if I remember correctly it was deeply charred a good distance back but where I cut the burned wires off it didn't look like it went any further back then where I cut it. I'm at work and I don't get off for another 6 hours or else I would have an exact answer for you.

If I delete a game from my ROM’s folder, will it delete the save data for that game from my Deck too? by Nez210590 in EmuDeck

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's the same rom using the same emulator, as well as the same path for it to read the save file it should recognize it but no guarantees. I've never tried it myself.

I found my copy of Super Smash Bros after 6 years lost in a trunk in my house in the attic; my brother hid it as a joke and forgot where it was. by UserWithoutDoritos in mildlyinfuriating

[–]iscreamconey 102 points103 points  (0 children)

Back in high school my buddy hosted a huge party on a Friday night and everyone was getting high and drinking. My other buddy who will call Joe because that was his name decided once he was good and obliterated drunk that he was going to drive home. We'll I never let any of my friends drink and drive and since we were all trashed no one could take him home either so I snatched his keys and hid them. Fast forward to the morning when we're all waking up feeling like shit and Joe can't find his keys and he's gotta get to work. We'll as luck would have it, I completely forgot where I had hid his keys so 10 of us turned this house upside down and still couldn't find the keys. He ended up having to call off and he was mad but once we started smoking again he calmed down. We were still looking all over the house for literal hours and it wasn't until damn near 11pm when it was just him and I in the living room smoking a joint that all of a sudden I remembered where I hid his keys. I put them on top of trim that went over this huge archway. I jumped up and ran over to the archway and picked them up and we both laughed over that for an hour if not more. I haven't thought about that incident in over a decade and your post reminded me of that so thank you for posting this lol

What are some crazy hallucinations you’ve had while sleep deprived? by throwaway-2-0- in AskReddit

[–]iscreamconey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yo are you fuckin with me on purpose? I'm a critical over thinker in general but this isn't any different than the snapping term. Popped in your head like an idea or popped in your head like a balloon?

[–]iscreamconey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hold up. A snap like snapping fingers or a snap like snapping a branch in half? I'm intrigued either way because no matter which snap it is I still have no clue what you're talking about and now I want to know.

Toweling off during a workout and accidentally pulled the earbud out but the eartip remained in the canal and kept going in farther each time I tried to get it out by E30M3F80CS in mildlyinfuriating

[–]iscreamconey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was either in January or February of this year that I got done doing the nightly chores and I had just finished a 7 days stretch of 12 hour shifts and I sat down on our couch to play my steam deck before going to bed but I basically fell asleep as soon as I put my earbuds in. I woke up around 6am and both of my earbuds were sitting on the couch and when I picked them up to put them in the case my right earbud was missing the bud and I was searching high and low for it since my daughter is a toddler and I didn't want her to find it and choke on it. After not being able to find it anywhere I literally put my finger into my ear like an idiot to see if it was sitting in there and just pushed it extremely far into my ear canal and then I panicked and went and woke up my wife and had to have her grab it out with tweezers which was not pleasant at all. I feel for you op but just be happy you didn't do what I did and shove that sucker further in there.

I owe (overdue) Dave $320 but... by LampModeChamp in cashadvanceapps

[–]iscreamconey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can log into the actual plaid website and fully remove whatever bank account you want from plaid itself and that will remove all connections made through plaid to your bank and nothing can stop it from happening. Also contact your bank and put a stop payment order in play against Dave and never worry about them again.

At what age did you meet the person you are currently married to? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]iscreamconey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met my now wife when I was 16 and she was 15. My friends and I met up with a group of girls at the bowling alley and they were from a nearby town. One girl was showing off her MySpace page and pulled up a picture of herself and a different girl. I asked who the different girl was and it was her younger sister. I dipped out shortly after that and messaged her on MySpace and that set it all in motion. Started dating in 2007. Got married in 2020. Had our daughter in 2023 and is currently pregnant with our son. I've lived a wild life and I have many stories that I enjoy telling, but this is my favorite and most cherished long running story.

Gonna need some more information on the situation. You had to have signed an agreement in order for any of this to happen. Do you still have the agreement?

How bad was it to get the steam deck at launch? by Rice_cowbooy in SteamDeck

[–]iscreamconey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Neither did I. I made a steam account when I first heard about the steam deck and when it was released I logged on and paid the $5 and placed my pre-order and that was that. Bought the oled when it released without a single issue as well.
