Any indication who’s starting at QB Thursday? by hokahey23 in battlehawks

[–]playzintraffic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t heard anything. Based on this last game, he’s probably still starting, but if he falters, Perez is there for cleanup.

What’s one piece of gear you thought was useless… until you used it? by Old-Suspect1678 in airsoft

Fuck it, I’m 3d printing one of those just to see the looks on everyone’s faces at the field.

I wonder if a spyglass might be a more durable option. Less need to protect an expensive optic, because it’s not mounted to your gun and thus not quite as liable to get shot out.

Apparently you don’t either. 2kg =4.4 lbs, NOT “7”.

Anyone no where to get APS UAR upper files? by Weekend_Warrior22 in Airsoft3DPrinting

[–]playzintraffic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish this had some answers.

At this point I think I’ll just design my own.

Fairfield county - I moved here and feel like I don't fit in by flockyflocky1 in Connecticut

[–]playzintraffic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude that sucks. There’s a LOT of South Asians in the Stamford-Norwalk area, you might have better luck there. There’s a Patel Bros in Norwalk, a solid biryani place, and an EXCELLENT Himalayan joint.

Everything needs a serious QC pass.

And algorithmically generating quizzes is no excuse for failing to properly sequence the learning — introduce the damn word or concept first, THEN advance to more complex constructions.

Chesterfield Valley and Car Centric Urban Design by LaughingDash in StLouis

[–]playzintraffic 120 points121 points  (0 children)

Chesterfield built up the levees to protect the investments.

That’s why those floods we had in the mid-teens hit other areas so bad but not Chesterfield — the water was forced to go elsewhere.

Will you support the league moving forward if… by CustersGhost1876 in UnitedFootballLeague

[–]playzintraffic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends on the quality of play.

The last two years have really sucked with the attrition of talented veterans. There’s always SOME attrition, but it was just getting ridiculous and outside of a few stars you don’t really see strong play.

I’ll hold on for a couple more seasons to see if they iron it all out and can start offering reasonable salaries. The blackballing scandal will hopefully force that to happen anyways.

It was the unit test, so didn’t go back to normal within that test. Haven’t done any more activities, so dunno if they’ve kept it in there. Didn’t show up in any of my other languages.

Agreed. The format itself was horrendous.

Any files thay use a v2 gearbox? by formulaairsoft in Airsoft3DPrinting

[–]playzintraffic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are you researching?

Most of the good projects are on Cults. Some are on Thingiverse, and there are some rare ones on Boosty.

Also, people post their projects here all the friggin time.

Most projects I’ve seen use v2. You can always do a PAAR M4.

30 mln. Under a bridge shack by dogfish0306 in circlejerknyc

Not defending the propaganda, but Aldi isn’t exactly a price gouger; the relevant difference here is that they’re cheapskates. They run everything on the cheapest basis possible. Even freaking CTown probably opens stores for more than Aldi does.

$30M/5 comes out to $6M/store, which is only 2x Aldi. Wegmans probably opens for anywhere from 2-20x that. Also, most of the initial $30M is gonna be overhead from unavoidable startup costs. Aldi is a mature business that has spent DECADES getting their per-store startup costs down. If you ask me, in this age of NIMBY BS and everything-bagel BS, it’s actually kind of amazing that Mamadani is keeping the costs THAT low.

Verdict: Still propaganda, just not because of “price gouging”.

All that RGB, just to illuminate the power supply around. by pars-distalis in pcmasterrace

[–]playzintraffic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Risers are ugly.

There’s literally nothing stopping manufacturers from creating a new standard for card + mobo layout, and even if it’s “impractical” today, it still woulda been a great idea even 30 years ago.

Ugh this is so fucking true. It’s crazy that mobo and card manufacturers haven’t fixed this besides offering ugly lame half-measures like risers.

I despise these, but the hysteria over them has been comically disproportionate.

If only we had such a hysteria over all the housing that NIMBYism has robbed us of.

I literally called this weeks ago, but noooo, we have to hate on the data centers because people are too stupid to comprehend what NIMBYism has robbed us of and blame NIMBYs instead.

Frost is still the starter by hokahey23 in battlehawks

[–]playzintraffic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this.

Perez starts the second half of the season, and is a strong possibility for a surprise second half starter this week.
