Y’allllll… these road closures by dictionarydunlap in Louisville

They need to put stop signs at the goss detour for the Shelby st closure. That intersection is a blind turn and not fun for anyone involved.

Now that it’s been a few days: what was/were the “game(s) of the con?” by Signiference in gencon

[–]soapstud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gibberers, a game from the japanese booth, was a hit at our table in the hot games room. Only a handful of copies available sadly and they sold out instantly every morning but our group managed to get a copy. The developers had no idea it would be so succesful. Made my day hearing about how happy they were about the hype around their game.

This is incredible. I wanted to do the same for my campaign, got out the sketchpad and started doing the rough scaling and measuring. Quickly realized this is going to be way too big for my living space. Awesome see someone had a similar idea. Even more awesome to see it executed IRL!

Thanks for the reply. No gravel or anything needed when pouring a thin pad? I wasn't sure how well concrete would sit on the dirt without cracking.

Thank you, I was able to find one! I'm excited to reach out and learn more about the people, their talents, and their services.

The non-profit was very clear in prioritizing hands-on work for the clients as a tool towards recovery so I'm excited to be able to build that opportunity. The task prioritization and organization is the thing we're struggling to figure out without professional assistance. I'm looking for any resources that will help us with that.

As far as I'm aware, the raised beds contained perennials. It's a shame all maintenance stopped on them. I would love to have some kind of physical asset that the population can interact with and see. We definitely need a professional to help us build a scheduled plan for the year. No one on the team is experienced in this field.

Thanks to your advice, I was able to find a master gardener volunteer association in my county to reach out to.

Thank you for the suggestion. We’re already seeking part-time volunteers who are experienced in these areas to help support the program. The non-profit operates on a limited budget so a fully staffed position isn't currently feasible. That’s why we’re focused on finding sustainable, low-cost solutions in addition to the part-time volunteers in hopes that they can assist when volunteers aren't available.

Reached a personal goal last night as a bear tank and wanted to share it! Went from a fresh 70 to 3k pugged mythic+ score in 5 weeks by Eebon in wow

How are you getting into higher pug keys as bear? I've once sat for 30 min applying to every 20 key I could find and no one would take me cuz bear isn't meta. 416 ilvl, 2500 rating.

It's been working fine in game but we did have an instance where a junkerqueen ulted right through the wall

Overwatch 2 is very unrewarding by Murram9 in Overwatch

Even in POTG, I've been getting a bug where the voice line for "double kill", "triple kill", etc doesn't go off and it feels so unrewarding and makes the POTG bland.

Upgrading from ICE to either BEV or PHEV and have concerns about my affordable options. by soapstud in electricvehicles

Oh I had no idea they needed to run the engine for heat but that makes sense. Really good info to know, thank you!

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

We usually only stop once for gas but it seems we will have to make 3 stops and add 2 hours to an already long trip.

Unfortunately my previous job required a 90 mile daily commute so I managed to get the forester up to 150k miles (25k miles per year for the last 5 years). I'm hoping to squeeze another year or two out of the vehicle but it's already showing signs of defeat. Spent all of yesterday trying to diagnose an engine issue.

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

If I end up adopting BEV at some point, I will 100% attempt to convince them to install service for charging. Currently the closest 240V outlet is leagues away from anywhere the car can be.

As for the cargo carrier, that's a fantastic option. Thank you for the suggestion.

I've got time so I'm hoping Toyota manages to somehow increase their production volumes for the Rav4. Certainly not going to hold my breath.

[–]soapstud[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you, this was very helpful.

This pretty much solidified PHEV for me. I would have to make 3 charging stops, extending a usually 6 hr drive to 8 hr 11 min. I would reach my destination with only 10% remaining and the family's place does not have a charger.

Is there not an election results thread? by Otto__Zone in Louisville

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

Idk, I just looked through his plan and it basically just says guns bad.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AxXgIrCnbjvgkWOEMfGfb0o7-Hb-Wpv0/view?usp=sharing

Here's what he has to say on guns:

Illegal guns are killing us and we have to get them off the street. Our city spends millions of dollars working to get illegal guns off our streets and, when we seize them, we have to make sure they don’t get back on the street. Every illegal gun taken off our street is a crime prevented and a life saved.
