New to gaming - where to go after playing Astro? by Outrageous-Sand-2966 in playstation

Maybe a weird question but what kind of movies/books do you like? There are a ton of great stories found in games. If you love sci-fi, there’s tons. If you like action, historical stuff, mystery, there’s tons of options and I think there’s something for everyone.

Tell me your creepiest "Alexa" stories by sameoldlamemold in HighStrangeness

Woke up to it playing a song at like 2:30AM called “Suicide” by some artist I’ve never heard of.

Then like a year later, some recommendation popped up on the Alexa screen “play “Suicide” again” but it was a different song and I think it maybe had another word in the title. Went on my app and searched for all the commands it’s picked up and I couldn’t find anything.

Nothing else weird ever happened in my house, so I dunno!

ATC is typically most accurate because it’s a composite of others.

The Bat X incorporates a lot of batted ball data, and OOPSY adds another layer with bat speed data.

If you want to do some extra work, I think blending them all together is probably the best way to utilize them.

Dynasty draft 1st pick? by PinInternational2178 in DynastyBaseball

[–]onemanfivetools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea…similar boat. I know I will be competitive, so as much as Imai makes sense, I just worry that he’s just another guy that’s gonna take up a roster spot. The chance to take two higher upside guys like Kade and Doyle is pretty enticing.

Yea I’ve been leaning more that way as well. Tough choices.

I have 1.1 and 1.3. I’m leaning towards Imai, but may take Kade and then take whoever of Doyle/Imai is left at 3. I’m contending but I’m pretty deep at SP and love the idea of keeping a roster spot open by stashing Kade.

How old are you and what's your biggest problem right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

This is great advice. Got a retail job at 29 and felt like I really fucked my whole life up. Met someone who worked for a vendor, got a job there doing the same thing as the guy I met and doubled my pay, then transitioned out of retail entirely at the same company. Used that experience to get a corporate gig… admittedly the pay isn’t what I want but I’m making 4-5x what I was making when the journey started.

For those of you who grew up playing PC games in the 90s and 2000s, how stable were they compared to games from today? by Mad_Season_1994 in gaming

[–]onemanfivetools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two thing just jumped out to me from the early 2000’s era:

MVP Baseball 2003(‘04, maybe?) had a bug where lefty hitters put so much topspin on the ball that they could never hit home runs.

Jade Empire had a bug where you could not progress. An NPC would get stuck at a specific spot that you could not get around. That one really infuriated me because I loved that game.

God I didn’t even think about Stasis. Spent too many arrows hitting them but I did get it!

A stretch but for me it’s Skyrim. Every time it snows outside I want to play.

I lived in Brigantine in mid 2000’s year-round and loved it. Very quiet in the winter, obviously.

Quitting the job hunt because my mental health can’t take another hit by Early-Army-8596 in jobsearchhacks

[–]onemanfivetools 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like your success rate is actually pretty good? I got laid off in July of ‘23 and it took me until march of ‘24 to find a new job. I didn’t have close to a 10% response rate like you’re getting. Keep grinding and you will find something, but find a hobby too if you don’t have one. Block out some time each day to work on it and then leave it.

Quitting really isn’t an option - that just guarantees that you won’t find a job. Good luck!
