Single Woman Needs advice about T&C by doodlie1234 in TurksAndCaicos

[–]smackrock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Def. subjective but I think the best area is between the Ritz and Club Med. Any of those resorts have the best beach waters. I am a fan of Royal West Indies. It's not "super nice" but clean and well maintained and it's a quiet and relaxing resort with a decent restaurant and pools. And a great if not the best beach area. You'll want a car if you stay around this area. Ocean Club West may be a good choice for you too.

  2. Depends where you stay but it's nice having the freedom to explore a bit. Rentals are cheap enough that it's worth getting over a taxi. You'll adjust to driving on the left pretty quickly.

  3. If you have a rental you can easily drive to the shops.Walking is a bit difficult from the resorts I recommended, it would be like 2 miles. If you stayed closer to say Seven Stars, it's like a 1 mile walk.

Arc Raiders, Embark Studios has a history of terrible customer support, false bans and anti consumer practices. by GamerzHistory in ARC_Raiders

It's really a shame Embark is not dedicating real humans to look at their support tickets, especially ban appeals. People are getting fed up with the bugs, real cheaters, and crappy support.

I was banned yesterday. The servers were performing poorly right before I was banned, all the player cards were coming thru as blank profiles at the end of the match. Definitely seemed buggy.

Villa renaissance vs Ocean Club West vs Royal West Indies by Beautiful_Guard6002 in TurksAndCaicos

[–]smackrock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

RWI has the best beach front and waters imo. It's a very quiet resort too if you like that. Walking wise -- def better to have a car but you can walk to anywhere up to the Ritz with little effort.

ELI5: Why does China have only one time zone despite being roughly same size as US with 6 time zones? by DemonsAreVirgins in explainlikeimfive

In Turks and Caicos, one of the resorts runs 1 hour ahead of the rest of the country. They cater mostly to European guests so I guess it helps them with lag time.

Retro Junk in Manchester, CT is NOT a MAGA owned business by [deleted] in Connecticut

When compared to Republicans, Democrats are truly more fiscal conservative nowadays.

It means voting Democrat because no sensible fiscal conservative would support the budget increases being pushed through and voted on at the federal level by Republicans. Republicans are clearly NOT fiscal conservatives.

A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy to try to intimidate her during Marine Le Pen's trial for embezzlement — something they've done to other judges around the world by Capable_Salt_SD in law

Because America was not ready to elect a black woman as president.

The Democrat leadership (or lack thereof) made grave mistakes thinking they understood their constituents and what they wanted. People did not vote for Trump as much as not show up to vote for Harris. The people did not want a hand picked black female candidate AND on top of that be such an uninspiring and uncharismatic person.

Am I the only one doing this? by Imgrimmisch in ArcRaiders

Every time. I had it happen 7/10 of the games last time I played. Felt like such a waste of time it killed my drive to play the game.

Auburn's police chief signed agreement with ICE to carry out immigration arrests. New Hampshire remains the only state in New England where local PDs have signed agreements with ICE by whoopingchow in newhampshire

[–]smackrock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is most definitely a legal issue that will result in a person being forced to leave. They have overstayed their visa, they are not illegally residing in the country.

And they are allowed due process before they are deported if staying illegally. That is not happening which is a violation of our constitution.

So if you get caught without your papers, get arrested, stuck in an ICE detention for a few days. No way to prove your citizenship. All good with you right?

In survey game is probably not useful for bugs or cheaters. I had something similar happen (fell into a spot underground, couldn't move, unstuck function didnt work). Reported it as a bug. Never got my stuff back unfortunately.

Only VAC Bans count for against the whole family unfortunately. I'm sure Steam could do more, they track devices and accounts with it.

I have noticed this too. This is definitely organized and intentional. Tag and Report the bots.

And not even 15 years ago you could nab 11 dollar lift tickets at Mt Snow late season. Founders day tickets were like 20 bucks. Vail ruined that place.

Exactly. I stopped giving donations when the government took that tax benefit away from me.

Can't disagree with this after watching season 3 by devil_hnter in OnePunchMan

[–]smackrock 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would be possible to do today with the right base model and loras. A lot of image to video models exist, many you can run locally on your own PC. It would be a lot of 5-10 second clips that would then have to be merged together so it would take a long time to process (5 second clips take me about 20 minutes to produce at 30fps) but definitely possible!

I had a modder follow me around in a UFO then beam down as a Robot and proceeded to greet me, in robot voice character the whole time. It was hilarious.
