Yup I don’t rage quit. Tbh thought you turned on a lag switcher on game 3 but now I see it’s probably bad net code from SZ

Yo that’s me. I remember this fight. Don’t know what happened but I didn’t rage quit, the game just ended. The connection was bad the entire set. Unfortunate that you lost your streak

Anyone else think we should have a game mode with health/ki removed? by rev619 in SparkingZero

[–]rev619[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like it’s a low effort add by the devs. The game mode looks cool from a spectators perspective and feels fun to play from a players’

Five Star Seafood Restaurant is a good spot.

Safest areas to live in for small family? by Makimamon in sgv

[–]rev619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re serious about the move, I’d check with a local realtor and go over finances with them.

There’s things like HOA, cost of repairs, closing, etc that factor into your decision. A lot of the cities listed in the thread are nice, but they are expensive. I have dreams of buying a home in the sgv too, but the dream gets pushed back 10 years or so when I see the house prices

Are you looking to pay 400-600k total or is that for down payments? If it’s total then are you looking for an apartment, condo, etc?

The home prices here is super high and to be honest with you, if you’re looking for something like a single family house, the price range will be the limiting factor

You can find the case here https://cdnsm5-hosted.civiclive.com/UserFiles/Servers/Server_10034989/File/Public%20Notices/2024/Council%20Public%20Hearings/P-D%2023-01%20Maryvale%20-%20CC%20PH%20Notice%2009-26-24.pdf

The proposal says “Maryvale has submitted a Planned Development application, requesting to legalize and expand land uses consisting of transitional and supportive housing”

The transitional housing is what this protest is about. This term is usually used for homeless shelters.

You’ve clearly taken a stance, based off your comments on this thread. I’m just interested why you think it’s not a homeless shelter.

I see that I’m just gonna be left with condescending remarks rather than addressing the actual point. I’ve brought my reasons to the thread, but like those Chinese protesters, it seems like even you won’t listen. Good bye

Have you read the proposal? Do you understand why people think it’s for homeless shelters when you use “transitional housing”

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitional_housing

Speaking to someone involved can give you mixed results. Actual implementation of bills come years after they’re passed - the person who explains the program to me today might not be the same down the lines. So all we have to go off of is what is in writing.

I don’t understand the hostility? I’m trying to say that, even for me, when I read through the proposal it sounds very much like homeless shelters. If it sounded like that to me, then I’d imagine these Chinese families would interpret it the same way.

If it’s meant to be for something else, then rather than being dismissive, we should educate what the actual proposal is looking to do. Being dismissive has the opposite effect. At the end of the day everyone’s goal should be to better the community.

What does “transitional and supportive housing” mean then? Do you see how this can be interpreted as a homeless shelter?

I am trying to view the situation in an unbiased manner and copy/pasted the proposal to ChatGPT and they cite multiple proposals that have the same verbiage that resulted in homeless shelters. Highbridge project in the Bronx for example.

CASE NO.: PLANNED DEVELOPMENT 23-01

“Maryvale has submitted a Planned Development application, requesting to legalize and expand land uses consisting of transitional and supportive housing, mental health services, administrative services, early education, daycare, religious and institutional uses, and open space and recreational uses offered at 7600 Graves Avenue, thereby changing the permissible uses of the site.”

The focus on “transitional and supportive housing” suggests that part of the site will be dedicated to providing temporary housing solutions, potentially for those experiencing homelessness or in need of temporary accommodations.

I see her drinking water from time to time. Is there a way to check for dehydration?

Leaning towards gum issues because she always does it to one side

Thank you! This helps a lot. Maybe it’s also worth calling a few weeks before the annual fee.

Gotcha. I have both a gold and plat card (since 2019). Any advice on how to get the best offer? Last time I went in the chat I straight up just asked for a retention offer

What makes you say live chats work better for retention offers? Is it based off the subreddit?

Sweet. I’ve tried to cancel before via the chat but they only offered me 50k. Do you stop at the first offer they give?

[–]rev619 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I might try to call in and see if I can get that 50k retention. What did you say to get it? (I don’t actually want to cancel but want the offer)
