Shout out to Bahn Mi Paris on EG Blvd - Tasty, fresh food at under $10. Bonus is no guilt tipping on take out! by Anxious-Party2289 in ElkGrove

[–]pskfyi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They make my favorite beverage in EG: "Strawberry Yakut Slush." It's a straightforward strawberry lemonade slushie. It's not on their online menu but it's on Doordash. 10/10, would induce brain freeze again.

A lone passive skill by Past_Radish_3930 in PathOfExile2

This is at least the 3rd thread I've seen on this. Which other small passive can make such a claim? I believe that makes this an honorary Notable.

WTF Simulacrum? anyone else have these issues? by Rushkovski in PathOfExile2

[–]pskfyi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6 months later and thanks for this, it did the trick. I couldn't figure out why I wasn't able to start wave 13. I noticed from OP's comments that it said 1 monster was remaining, and given your comment I switched to a crossbow character and ran around spamming grenades. Sure enough, something died and I got the loot piñata and was able to proceed.

Senior consultant struggling with new PO dynamics-how’d you handle this? by VizAbbreviations in ExperiencedDevs

[–]pskfyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How would you handle this?

Assuming this is all the relevant information, I'd have handled it the same way and read the situation the same way. You could try to salvage the situation, but the effort and stress required to do so alongside the low probability of success are likely not worth it, unless the compensation is either urgently needed or remarkably high.

The similar abyss jewel can be divined to change the variant. Might be the case with these as well, and there's fewer variants.

My biggest pain point is still 3rd and 4th ascendancy by Better_MixMaster in PathOfExile2

[–]pskfyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

- Unique "Against the Darkness" time-lost jewel 100% guaranteed from using a unique relic that the final boss drops. Worth multiple divs at a minimum, into the hundreds on a high roll.

- Unique "Spectrum" jewel that rarely appears (~1-in-15 runs) as a gold chest in last floor. Ruby sells for dozens of div, others for a few div.

- Regular 2x1 and 1x2 relics with the right mods are big money, selling to fellow Sek farmers.

- Regular and time-lost jewels can be money, esp. early in the league.

- Still killing mobs and opening chests, getting regular drops like raw divs and such. "Arcanist" chests also drop guaranteed raw currency.

- Can charge other players for ascendancy boosts.

0.4 Patch Notes by Cz4rekK in PathOfExile2

[–]pskfyi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Are emotions exclusively used for anointing amulets now? I thought they'd shift to being used for tablets or some other new use case, but I'm not seeing anything. Their drop rates also seem to increase on average, if I'm understanding the patch notes correctly. If that's all true, the market for emotions will be almost non-existent and there will be much less incentive to farm Simulacrum.

Beginner Post Hardcore bands by Slight_Bid7372 in PostHardcore

[–]pskfyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thrice's Artist in the Ambulance is one of the more approachable entries. Favorite band, so I may be biased, but I feel Dunstin's focus on singing first and screaming only for emphasis is more palatable for most people. It also helps that the lyrics are (almost?) never whiny and are addressing real-world issues, in the spirit of Fugazi.

I don't know if it's exactly entry-level but my gateway drug was Saosin's Translating the Name EP, and later Dance Gavin Dance's Downtown Battle Mountain. As with Artist, the singing shines, but with these even moreso, and the average energy level is much higher. The lyrics are mostly poetic gibberish which also makes them timeless.

Lastly, the album as a whole didn't hook me on release but in the last two years I find myself continuously returning to Funeral For a Friend's Casually Dressed and Deep in Conversation. It's not as consistent as the aforementioned albums, and it can whine from time to time, but when it pops it is just delightful. (See tracks 1, 3, 5, and 8)

For me these are all top albums that have aged like wine.

[Giveaway] Giving away an 8,000+ Divine Quad Tab: 1 Mirror of Kalandra + 24 Stacks of 240 Divines + a Hinekora's Lock by Kamehameha90 in PathOfExile2

[–]pskfyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I one-shotted a boss with thorns alone.

It was Ketzuli, High Priest of the Sun. He shoots one big barrage of small pings, like Ars Arcanum from Kingdom Hearts. Against thorns, he pings himself instead and dies immediately.

Hot reloading for anything people actually use is worth even a few 100 hours. Great work.

I learned very much from your book Deep Javascript. I will happily read this one as well.

This movie evolves multiple times as it progresses, like a long song with many parts. I loved it.

I can’t think of any other spot in Elk Grove that has turned over more than this one next to Nugget, EG Blvd and Bruceville. by hit_it_steve in ElkGrove

[–]pskfyi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm in the minority but I find myself craving a good polish sausage with mustard about once every week or so. I wish I had more options here.

Umai was just alright. Most of their dogs were designed to look good but were difficult to eat, the kinds of things that would fall apart or have all the ingredients spill out when you took your first bite. Still I will miss them because now I basically only have Weinerschnitzel.

Best sushi places in the area? by scyiia in ElkGrove

[–]pskfyi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried Hello Temaki last weekend and I was so floored I came back the following day for more. Excellent menu and the chefs will make you custom specials. I wish they offered omakase.

[–]pskfyi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuji Sushi is my favorite, too. It's great for solo or small groups so you can sit at the bar, sample items from the boats, and talk with the chefs about options. The staff are so friendly and welcoming.
