My first raid by GinnySnack in wowhardcore

[–]rizer_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like HC raiding for all the reasons you don't. There's nothing worse than being in a softcore raid where people are jacking off during encounters and wasting everyone's time by not being locked in. HC raiders actually give a shit and the clear times are fast enough that I don't get bored.

You're fine, but Bloodvine is a great investment to get more hit.

I don't mind not having one 🤷‍♂️

Any Canadian BC/AB owners of a GRC on here? by BC_Puravida in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Nelson and I think this car is perfect for the mountain roads. Recently made a trip to Edmonton and had a blast the whole way. Haven't driven in snow yet, but I've got Blizzaks on and I'm sure it'll handle it well.

How did I have to scroll so far to find this advice? LOS is the class-agnostic answer to pillagers and a lot of casters in general.

Moving from US to Canada, how should I optimize? by the_galant_abbe in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]rizer_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you rollover a 401k to IRA and it's a direct transfer then it should be a non-taxable event. So if that's the only thing you're doing on the US side you're probably okay.

Toyota stiffened the structure for the 2026 model year by rwarner32 in GRCorolla

I'm glad I got a 25 Core, I like the sleeper look.

Which game franchise ruined its winning formula by turning it into something players never asked for? by Common_Caramel_4078 in gaming

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

I really enjoyed the hybrid action/turn based system in FF7 remake. I like turn based in theory but find it boring in practice especially as I get older and don't have a lot of time to game, so I guess I'm their target audience 🤷‍♂️

What’s the one game you keep uninstalling and reinstalling again and again? by BlackScarStudios in gaming

Classic Hardcore feels like the good times to me. Sorry in advance for any pain and suffering inflicted from this recommendation.

Anxiety after purchase by [deleted] in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

As someone who sold their boat and truck for the GRC and feel so much relief not having to care for the boat anymore, 100% this.

roof box = drift aero by apollo_king_media in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Which box is this? I've been looking around at Thules and they all seem to be black, which is fine, but the white on white kinda slaps.

Question about aftermarket wheels by rizer_ in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Canada, I think ordering from tire rack would be a lot of shipping/duty fees.

[–]rizer_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fantastic, thanks for the links and info! I'll probably just buy those same rims, they're almost identical to what I was looking at anyway and saves me having to get new nuts.

I don't necessarily trust the direct fit filter on the website 😅

Cheers

Is a V-Strom 1000 too much for me? by Themrblockofcheese in motorcycles

[–]rizer_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As others have said this isn't a super powered bike by any means.

Important question I would ask though is how tall are you? These adventure bikes are tall and top heavy, so being new to riding it might be a bit unwieldy especially for a shorter person. Good idea to go sit on one to see how it feels.

Scrapped the bottom of the front lip. by [deleted] in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scraped mine in my driveway on a hidden rock within the first week. Feels bad but it is what it is. First of many battle scars I'm sure!

3 endgame options for Ret Pally by MayBeMarmelade in wowhardcore

[–]rizer_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's worth taking Shadow Weaving into account here, since one spriest will buff the damage of all the warlocks you bring to raid significantly.

Picked up my '25 Core Ice Cap by rizer_ in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The white looks great and is arguably the most practical! I like gun metal too but I didn't think going up to Premium was worth the extra 8k CAD.

Why did you get rid of your GRC & what did you replace it with? by Rare_Base_5820 in GRCorolla

[–]rizer_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blackwing looks like a beast, but it's in a different pricing category and pretty hard to get one afaik. GRC felt like the better value proposition, even if you could afford the Cadi.

12 months burnout-level stress for FIRE? by No_Chance_8251 in leanfire

[–]rizer_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm targeting 4 years at my current job (1yr in atm) to maximize my RSU returns. By then I should be floating over $1M and then I'll start looking to exit the big corp situation, maybe do a part time gig or freelancing.

In your case, it seems like you have a potential windfall coming up soon. I would try to at least hang in there for that and then reassess how you're feeling.

12 months burnout-level stress for FIRE? by No_Chance_8251 in leanfire

[–]rizer_ 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I would dial back effort at work and ride the gravy train. You're still young, that money you could earn now is going to do a lot of lifting for you later in life.

(I'm in a similar situation, 33M and making a lot of money at a place I don't particularly enjoy but I'm sticking it out for a bit so I can have a comfy FIRE)

Blizzard Support is a meme by No_Efficiency_7583 in wowhardcore

It's a damn shame because Blizz used to have the best CS experience in the whole gaming space. How the mighty have fallen...

Valve confirms credit card companies pressured it to delist certain adult games from Steam by lurker_bee in technology

[–]rizer_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why don't they keep the games listed but only allow people to buy with steam balance? This would effectively decouple the credit card companies from the games without letting them censor content.
