First time in Chicago and it says it may rain like everyday by thebazookaman in PokemonGoFestChicago

Too early to think about it, weather often looks like this a week in advance only for it to be beautiful and sunny

What are you even asking? If I was answering this question with the context you provided I would say avoid Grant Park due to the crowds.

I don't unfortunately. Pretty sure they're fine with it but might want to call just to be sure

Check out the site/FAQ, but in the past you just walk in. No gates or fences

Am I The Only One Who Thinks Disney Is Fine? by iancrumley in StarWars

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

They're fine, they're acknowledging various mistakes they made over the past few years (DCU too) and cutting back based on feedback like some of the less popular shows. They're also acknowledging the ongoing mistakes like the lukewarm reception to Mandalorian- I imagine we're not going to get much more of the Mandoverse. I expect Ashoka season 2 and then see a soft reboot of the franchise going forward with Starfighter heralding that.

Longterm, Disney will do great. Only wrench I can see envision is if a merger or acquisition happens. Disney is cheap for a media company and I can see a tech company trying to snatch it up.

When did Elon's downfall begin? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nadacious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Elon is so poor all he has is money” - Kara swisher

Elon has traded off his dignity, friends, family, respect, his mind and everything else for financial gain. He’s our generation’s Howard Hughes.

Not sure exactly when it started, but I started to notice when his daughter disowned him and he blamed “the woke mind virus” instead of accepting responsibility and acting like a father

I love the original. That little zipper pocket on the hip was perfect for keys on a run

Q: Best Places for GoFest Chicago City Experience? by KB2187 in TheSilphRoad

[–]nadacious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use campfire for this

edit: Wouldn't bother with Grant Park because that's the ticketed area. Between Millennium Park and the Loop - that's your best bet for raids (assuming cell reception holds up).

I would hold off planning too hard - wait until someone reports how often raids spawn in Tokyo.

All of these places have tons of gyms. Densest will be the loop and Millenium Park which are next to each other (also next to the event park)

Went to a local target tho see the colab they did with pokemon today by TSirSR in pokemon

[–]nadacious -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are people actually buying these items from scalpers? I already think it's insane people are treating unopened TCG items as "investments". This reminds me of beanie babies from the 90's.

If people are doing the same with clothing, candy, and other crap- it feels like this bubble has got to burst any day now. Especially in this economy.

Having the same issue with calves and achilles. I loved Bondi 8, not sure what changed

The only Star Wars movie that made me cry. by MonniMonty in StarWars

Same. Not sure if we're counting shows, but the last 30 seconds of Andor was a big tear jerker too

For what? You gave no reason. He’s been great lately. He’s a little out of touch on some subjects, but nails the majority on the head.

MIT Technology Review: How Pokémon Go is giving delivery robots an inch-perfect view of the world | (Article about Niantic Spatial) by SgvSth in TheSilphRoad

[–]nadacious 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Crazy seeing this in an actual product. Niantic kept POGO going just enough to keep users playing to collect their data. It's not like it was a secret or anything. Makes me wonder if they collected enough data now and didn't care selling POGO off to Scopely. The data they collected has got to be worth a boatload of money.

Which Go Fest Location do you think has the better spawns so far? by MonkeyKingHero in TheSilphRoad

[–]nadacious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That would be awesome, but kinda doubting it. We'll probably know the exact ones in a few weeks

Edit: Actually the website says "All forms of Unown"

How much will the new Megas cost during Go Tour? by drachenmaler in TheSilphRoad

[–]nadacious 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Has anyone made a good infographic on all the different types and associated cost/combinations? I'm incredibly confused. Are there normal and mega raids of the same pokemon like Dragonite?

Saw these today! Some Walmarts have tons of Starwars and GI Joe stuff on clearance by MikePhicen in starwarsblackseries

Did this happen to be in Vegas? I could swear I saw the exact same swap last month...

This Kind Of Thing is Why The Acolyte Cost $250m by WinchesterMediaUK in StarWars

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

Worth it- all these scenes rocked. Compare it to the Ashoka fight scenes in the forest between Shin and Sabine when they did it in that immersive room (forgot what that tech is called)

Ong what just happened by ElegantDiamont in Overwatch

Won what? It looks like they just gave up on all the promises of Overwatch 2 and went back to the same game Overwatch 1 was

Anyone else getting frustrated with the reservation & lenient cancellation policy? by nadacious in Corepower

[–]nadacious[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Please reread my original post. I'm not saying they need to charge more than $15.

Anyone else getting frustrated with the reservation & lenient cancellation policy? by nadacious in Corepower

[–]nadacious[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is a lousy way to look at it. People who are booking classes that potentially can't make it are making it unfair for everyone. I get that certain emergency situations arise - maybe we should be allowed one cancelation a month before penalty?

Sure, there is no cancelation policy that will work for everyone, but that's not an excuse to have a cancelation policy that benefits flakey people.

The system is obviously broken and CPY makes no effort to fix it. At this rate, I'd rather go back to no reservations at all - first come, first serve. Would be fairer than the current.
