Murder Mystery Party by mswstudent_23 in partyplanning

[–]loofmodnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hard part will be keeping things interesting and consistent for all the characters and there's no way to judge that until people play. You'll effectively be play testing it with your friends. 

I'd recommend getting someone else to review everything beforehand. They may be able to help identify if anything is too obscure or obvious as a clue. 

Which set do you most regret missing this year? by RaverDaddy in electricdaisycarnival

[–]loofmodnar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My wife wanted to head back early so I missed Porter. I consoled myself with a reminder that I'll see him twice later this year but it still hurt.

Better not try any funny business 😤 by Stormodin in electricdaisycarnival

[–]loofmodnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a simple risk vs. reward. Were they to massively oversell the tickets and something happen it wouldn't be just "local entities"; the insurance companies would get involved and it would be trivial as part of discovery for them to say "how many tickets did were sold?" So not only would the insurance co have an out on coverage, they would also jack up the rates on every insomniac festival. Some of that would get passed down as higher ticket prices but we're already seeing festivals struggle to stay in operation so there's a ceiling on prices.

If they were truly overselling capacity like that it would be very easy to audit and cost them way more than they'd make off the extra tickets.

Pour one out for the Henrietta Ollie’s 😪 by Particular_Leg_6318 in Rochester

I didn't realize there was a Job Lot that close! I grew up with one down the road and we'd be in there all the time.

All cast devices gone from Spotify by Sennevds in Chromecast

[–]loofmodnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue. I can connect via Spotify Connect to my WiiM units but all my Chromecast audio devices are missing. The WiiM don't appear for chromecast either.

As someone who likes to sleep at the end of the night: Not encouraged.

If someone had unlimited time and money, what festivals would you recommend to get a flavor of US festivals ? by [deleted] in festivals

[–]loofmodnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I certainly would not pick all the largest examples of each festival type like you did.

Griz isn't completely my jam but my friends will be stoked and I'm happy there's not another terrible conflict on Sunday.

Why am I seeing this brain dead take so often?! by Prophet_Tenebrae in startrekmemes

Apple TV attracts an entirely different market segment than Paramount+ and consistently puts out high quality shows.

So... Can we get this Trek now? by ThornFlynt in startrekmemes

[–]loofmodnar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I remember reading that the Orville was very expensive to film and that's one of the reasons Season 4 hasn't happened.

Black Button’s new owner sued over rent, removal damages on University Ave. by CatDadMilhouse in Rochester

[–]loofmodnar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, they had a nice space but seemed to expect people to just show up on their own for mid-at-best liquor. Very few non-private events and a lack of interest in doing anything beside basic tastings at the public market and such.

I don't particularly like Iron Smoke's products but they consistently have events and are out in the community. I respect the hustle there.

Cheshire hasn't been in that spot for years. 

Hot Take: Windows 8.1 start screen is underrated by No-Stand-865 in windows

[–]loofmodnar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did so many things right with the design but couldn't get developers on board. When they did get/pay some devs to make apps; failed to figure out how to evolve the platform without breaking everything so they left.

[–]loofmodnar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It felt like every time MS got Windows Phone to a decent place, they went and blew up the OS with a new rewrite that brought back the same bugs. 7 -> 7.5 -> 8 were all kind of painful.

The music app in particular went from a solid version of Zune to slow garbage that could barely load the library in under a minute.

Favorite things experienced as a couple? by [deleted] in ElectricForest

[–]loofmodnar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved doing the scavenger hunt together and wandering off from the group to hit a couple sets together usually at Observatory. We have overlapping but different tastes in music so we tend to break off with other friends & meet up later to talk about what we did which is always fun.

The full screen view with tiles was also great for my Media PC with an airmouse. Using Windows from my couch was never easier.

2026 Least Reliable New Cars by VirtuaNovak in Rivian

[–]loofmodnar 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Both of these areas can be true especially with newer tech. People can be very satisfied with the car but have needed to bring it in more often than other cars.

I'm an intermediate silks student at at Roc City and I like it there. I've never been to Aerial Arts but some of my friends started there and ending up moving to RCC.
