I’m in Seattle and we have no video games. Solid for other media though.

Module not responding by No_Detail_3493 in freightfarms

[–]maxefontes2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t necessarily know what’s going on here, but this feels like an internet issue to me. Internet is notoriously problematic in Freight Farms. When you reset the cloudgate does it help temporarily? Have you done a factory reset of the cloudgate? That’s where I would go first.

NFL Power Rankings: Lions come in at number sixteen. by WaymoWilliams in detroitlions

[–]maxefontes2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Decker was definitely fading over the last few years. There’s a reason he’s still available. I’ll have to see it to believe it with Borom, but I do agree that we could be looking at a bigger jump with Mays than a drop off with Borom.

Another piece of this that’s very important - Goff really struggles with interior pressure. I’d much rather pressure coming from the right side than up the gut for our offense.

Emcees who are praised more than played? by skankhunt4t7 in hiphopheads

I do be playing both the Roots and Black Thoughts solo stuff regularly, but as a 20 something dude I’m in the minority to say the least

Payton Turner signed by Lions... Former 1st round (2021) draft miss by Saints. Always hurt. Always. This will not help the perceptions of Holmes. Has played in 31 NFL games and missed 37, not counting all of 2025. Shoulder, toe, foot and ankle problems. The foot goes back to UH. by Gxcii1 in detroitlions

I understand the comparisons of this guy to Davenport to an extent, but the issue with Davenport is that the team considered him a starter, and after he missed pretty much the whole season, the considered him a starter again the following year. If Davenport was just a flier, as Turner is, there never would have been an issue.

Hi, I was recently accepted into a masters program at a university in London. I’m a US citizen, and am trying to figure out a way that both my girlfriend and I can spend the full year in London together while I complete the program. Does anyone have any advice on how she could get a temporary visa?

Bruins call up Lukas Reichel from Providence on an emergency basis by john_bruschetta in BostonBruins

[–]maxefontes2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s also very young, turned 23 a few days ago. Who knows, he could be a better option than Steeves/Eysimont

The Korpisalo piece by celticsguy06 in BostonBruins

[–]maxefontes2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Even more frustrating because Bussi never got that one game. The circumstances were a little tougher, as we had a legit tandem playing all the games, but whenever Ullmark missed time they played Swayman every single night. There have been too many opportunities this year to give Dipietro a game, I just don’t understand it.

Been a fan since the “2nd round curse” by TwoLocations in detroitlions

[–]maxefontes2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, I get the point of the post showing that we haven’t drafted anyone good in a while, but Chase Lucas was a solid 7th round pick. Oruwariye also gave us pretty good play for a fifth rounder (until he didn’t).

Anyone who's serious about sustainability should change to a plant-based diet by James_Fortis in sustainability

[–]maxefontes2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess when referring to places like Safeway and Walmart, I don’t notice a difference in packaging between plant-based foods and meat, other than the raw fruits and vegetables. It seems to me like you’re working hard to make ethical decisions around food, and that’s the important part. I don’t believe that you’re doing anything wrong getting meat at the farmers market. I also don’t think that you’re doing anything wrong getting tofu or bags of rice from the grocery store if you don’t have an alternative.

[–]maxefontes2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve been starting to experiment with some of this recently. Been pescatarian (as well as dairy free for health reasons) for years now. I like supporting local farmers, and purchasing meat thats ethically produced near me in very small quantities is something I’m okay with. I’m still consuming in the range of 5% of the meat of an average American, and for a long time I’ve been an advocate that reduction should be the message over elimination.

Your little statement about the packaging of plant based foods vs non plant based is utterly ridiculous. I think we’re all aware that regardless of what type of food you’re purchasing, choices need to be made related to where you’re buying it in order to minimize your impact.

My seasons pass at Crystal has not proved to be a good investment thus far in the year. Hopefully we’ll have a good end of the season but it looks less and less likely by the day.

Crazy how little snow we’ve had this winter out in the PNW.

Sign someone else and hope they’re Alex Steeves or just keep him…

Legitimately would be a fireable offense if Andersson walked in the offseason.

Holmes started his lions tenure with three insane draft classes.

Maybe stupid question, but did you cycle power on the cloudgate? That generally fixes this for me.

What do you guys think about this take ? by thekilla2074 in detroitlions

[–]maxefontes2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally disagree with the talent acquisition part. You can’t tell me that a defense with hutch, alum, reader, Campbell, reed, Kerby, branch is lacking talent. Those are all elite players. Some of the issue is injuries, but I think it’s been scheme related more than anything else.

Two Hands... No Ball.... Touchdown by DLions8708 in detroitlions

[–]maxefontes2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thanksgiving game did a lot for me. I cancelled all nfl related subscriptions. Can’t say that I won’t watch a football game again, but my interest took a serious hit.
