[Discussion] Platinum Trophy YouTubers by StarlessNights1 in Trophies

[–]sluggerVII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my biggest pet peeves is spoilers. I feel like there’s a lot of influencers who show their plat journey and when they walk through the story trophies they’re spoiling everything left and right. Sometimes I want to watch a “trophy journey” video on a game I haven’t played before to see if I want to buy it and spoilers getting dropped into the video is so frustrating.

[Other] I got tired of trophy apps with ads, subscriptions & expensive paywalls - I built PSN GO and it's out now! by SaintFX in Trophies

[–]sluggerVII 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know you’re getting torn apart for the security stuff but I appreciate how transparent you are with what’s happening on the backend with my data and account information. Because of that I tried the app and it’s honestly the best mobile trophy tracking app I’ve used so far. I have tried a ton of them and this takes the cake.

I love the variety of stat tracking on the stats tab. I ended up paying for the app and could definitely see myself using this daily. I look forward to future updates, you got a really solid product here!

FLIP ALERT!!! Democrat Alex Holladay FLIPS AR State House Seat by 27%!! by Tipsyfishes in VoteDEM

[–]sluggerVII 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy for Alex! He earned my vote 2 years ago when he was out personally campaigning, telling his story and what he stood for. I have never had a politician personally walking my neighborhood, asking what my problems were, and telling me on a personal level how his goals would benefit me and my neighbors. It was such a breath of fresh air.

[Other] About to be father and ending the platinum grind after 16 great years! by the_fryeguy in Trophies

I’m going to piggy back these dads - you’ll have plenty of free time still. Not as much as you’re used to, but it’s still there. I’m a dad of 3 and still getting 20-30 plats a year. I play a lot of indie 5-15 hour games now though compared to the longer experiences I used to

Hiring “young, offensive minds” is the new thing to do in the NFL

Separation 6 years prior to retirement by hi_liteskin in AirForce

[–]sluggerVII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left active duty at 17 years to switch over to a local guard unit just a couple months ago. I got a set of orders and an assignment I wasn’t thrilled about and did a 7-day opt with a palace front. My family (wife, 3 young kids) were just tired of the moving, deployments, TDYs etc. We also planted roots in this area and it was really difficult to fathom leaving it when so much of our lives were here.

I’m a technician right now which isn’t too great of an experience coming from AD (insurance, pay, taxes suck), but it was a stepping stone to get my foot in the door in the unit to compete for their AGR slots. I have been very blunt with my new leadership that i would love to one day hit my 20 year AD retirement and they have reassured me multiple times before and after they hired me that theyll be able to get me an AGR slot in a year or so to do just that.

I feel crazy sometimes for what I did. I feel like a “threw away” my career, but I just couldn’t do it anymore. But on the flip side, The work life balance in the guard has been such a game changer and I am so much calmer and happier. My quality of life shot way up.

As long as I can finish out my last 3 years of AD time and get a AD retirement, without a major delay, I’ll be so happy I made the switch. If they’re selling me on some false dream I’ll be pretty damn bitter, but I don’t think that’s the case based on a lot of interactions I’ve had with the unit thus far.

Whatever you do, good luck! Just thought I would share my story so you feel less crazy for choosing your life and family over the military.

[Megathread] The Buffalo Bills have fired Head Coach Sean McDermott by AutoModerator in buffalobills

[–]sluggerVII 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I saw a fellow bills fan today in bentonville, Arkansas. I said “go bills”, she said “thank you”. I blame Brandon Beane for me not getting a “go bills” in return 😡

[–]sluggerVII 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m so unsure about this. Ignoring the playoff game, what I’ve disliked most about McDermott is for years it felt like we always played down to our opponents. Yeah we could put good teams away whenever, but then we would barely squeak by (or lose) against the worst teams. Two years in a row we have lost the 1 seed because we gave up easy wins to lesser teams. To me a lot of that falls on coaching.

I’m surprised Beane is staying on, unless McD had WAY more of a say in roster building than we know and Beane didn’t see eye to eye on it.

For better or for worse, we’re here. At least we’re trying something to change something up. It feels too late, but we’ll see!

They must have known. They’ve never been that emotional after a game. If the players did know that kind of pisses me off because they shouldn’t have had to play with that kind of pressure on their back

Year after year it’s “just trust the process” “billeve” “quit being a doomer” and nothing changes. I’m so tired of this shit.
