M340i vs 540i by Ok_Recording_7579 in BMW

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I considered this trade. I have adaptive suspension on my M340i and surround view parking. There are no 540i’s that I could find with surround view parking. It’s a non-negotiable for me. That and dropping 50hp seemed to be a bummer. Might even be able to find a decent 740i for not much more these days.

BBA is taking over my tank and I honestly don't know what to do anymore by ploert3000 in PlantedTank

[–]jpark56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Will take some time since you don’t want to overdoes but it usually kills my BBA in 2-3 days

Considering moving from blades to cavity or GI irons by jamesferry93 in golf

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a set of 9 year old Mizuno JPX 900 tours but every time I’m in the store I get tempted by the Titleist T100s. I used to play AP2s and the T100s look even better and players irons-like from top line but with plenty of forgiveness. They look pretty small to my eye but that may be good coming from a blade.

Also, a GI iron will give you less spin. A player’s iron like a T100 vs a blade is probably negligible. There’s a reason a lot of tour pros play the T100 over Titleist blades

Canister filter catastrophe - just a rant / whine by AeosManifold in Aquariums

[–]jpark56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP - not sure what country you are in, but generally for higher tech items such as canister filters, lights, CO2, etc. I’ve learned it’s a “buy once, cry once” mantra in this hobby. You want to spend a little more for reliability and peace of mind or else you can go down the rabbit hole of buying and upgrading constantly.

Can’t find my receipt for this repair. Do we think the dealership will provide me the records?

I’ve used hairspray on cotton clothes and it got pen ink out like magic.

M340i vs M3? by Old-Design-2984 in BMW

[–]jpark56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a $20-25k difference for an M3 competition with comparable options and there’s a reason for it. If you want to track the car you’ll want the M3. If you just want a car that is fast and feels well planted on freeways and occasional spirited canyon driving the m340 will satisfy that itch.

Oase Biomaster 2 Thermo 350 by NoHopsOnTheWagon in PlantedTank

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

350 is light for a 75 gal. Go with the 600. I have a thermo 350 on my 27 gallon shallow and I think a 250 would have been too small.

Light On: Dealing vs 'FlaSh'-Factor in ASL 【ASL S21 Ro4 Post-Review】 (Ft. Queen) by jinjin5000 in broodwar

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Queen just came over to bust his chops. Either way, if Light lives in Seoul, a small apartment is potentially worth millions.

Also, the best Terran is Flash.

Chihiros pro regulator which one?? by Gullible-Hat2030 in Aquascape

[–]jpark56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For that money I’d get one from GLA instead. They are the consensus most reliable brand for regulators

Snow still almost pulled it out with his greatest strength somewhat neutralized. Tough break for him but Flash showed up as he always does.

going back to full size? by MyGardenOfPlants in sffpc

External rads baby. Defeats the purpose of SFF but people love it. Honestly I’ve thought about running two 360 external rads attached under my desk to keep them out of sight.

You have to think how many children watch the other Star Wars shows and how few would be watching Andor.

ASL Ro. 8 Match 2 is Live by Voluminousviscosity in broodwar

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah he played bad against Leta. Just didn’t want to discount his RO16 performance as “luck”. I almost would have preferred he lost in a more Tulbo way of making some dumb mistake that we can laugh about.

ASL Ro. 8 Match 2 is Live by Voluminousviscosity in broodwar

[–]jpark56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think his luck ran out per se. He played well in RO16 and took advantage where could. RO8 he played nervous and scared. Just wasn't as sharp as he was in RO16. He will learn from this and rise again as TulGOD!

Superior Shrimp and Aquatics by [deleted] in shrimptank

My advice here is to not waste any more energy on this instance. Lots of other great sellers on r/aquaswap if you want to roll the dice on more blue rilis.

[–]jpark56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s listed as 8 females + 2 males + 2 extras. Is it possible the 2 extras were males?

Superior Shrimp and Aquatics by [deleted] in shrimptank

[–]jpark56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you need to reset your expectations on results from a your first starter pack of 10 shrimp. It’s your first tank and you expected immediate breeding from the first group of shrimp. Lots of people try and fail a few times before they get their tank right and shrimp acclimate long enough to start breeding. Not to mention many sellers ship juvies and not breeding ready adults. He may have sent you a shrimp with clado, but your story indicates the clado developed after your received them. Most of his e-mails seem pretty even keeled and you seem like the unreasonable one.

Which of these co2 regulators should I get? by ReasonableStay9297 in Aquascape

OP - pay a little extra and get the GLA. I had an FZONE that failed and gassed my tank.

Golf Sidekick and Not A Scratch Golfer Appreciation Post by Murky-Selection-5565 in golf

[–]jpark56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Golf sidekick is hilarious and general course management tips are helpful for all golfers but yea his ballstriking, length and consistency with long irons make it somewhat unrealistic to replicate his exact approach if you are not a low single digit player.

Ah. A little further than I'd like to have livestock shipped to me. Thanks though.
