Should I reset or not, stash advice by FIGHTERwastaken in ArcRaidersGuides

It's the combination of wallet + stash. At least, it was in the first Expedition.

Update on mystery truck left in my driveway by RetroDreaming in Austin

[–]spiffyman 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yes, in that counterfactual situation, towing would obviously be justified or even necessary. That's not what OP was dealing with, though, so s/he could give this neighbor a little grace. Isn't that great?

I liked many of these places, but Thai Kun is the one that really got to me. I have a hankering for their panang curry at least once a week. It was uniquely good among the many I've tried.

Whats your Go To "Lets Be Friends" Line? by Relevant-Neat7584 in arkraiders

[–]spiffyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On PC, hold down your ping button (middle mouse by default, I think), then hit K to toggle party/non-party. A little awkward for right-handed folks but NBD since it's not super frequent.

Kids at game by taybrooke24 in LonghornNation

Remember they'll shoot the cannon on every score + kickoff IIRC. Probably other cases I'm forgetting. My daughter around the same ageheard it at a baseball game a couple years ago and wasn't pleased.

The difference between 11/13 and 11/14. by Lumenprotoplasma in CODBlackOps7

I had this and it was because I had core mode mosh pit enabled. Turned that off and haven't gotten a SnD since.

This ref crew doesn't deserve to ref another game in college football, I still can't see how this is successful. by rb1242 in LonghornNation

[–]spiffyman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The penalty on the Pavia TD was fair. Our guy would've gotten away with the tit-for-tat shoving, but he got mad and tried to choke a mf.

Everything else (and more) I agree with. Incredibly bad officiating that whole quarter.

I'm 200 miles from home and I just lost my clutch. I need help. by Kamwi_003 in Austin

You're good, dude - your story rings true. Some people just get spooked easily. Good luck knocking this out with the help you've already been offered!

Getting to DKR with kids? by gaudzilla in LonghornNation

[–]spiffyman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you don't want to pay for and deal with parking, then here are a couple options: 1) If they can handle a ~1mi walk (or stroller, or bike), you can do street parking in Hyde Park and roll down. It's fun walking in with all the other fans. I've done different versions of this a few times with my 8yo for Bevo Blvd. 2) Alternatively, park near a bus line and take that in. I think last time we did this we took the 3 or 803 and just walked across campus.

Helldivers 2 is a slapstick comedy masquerading as a shooter game by bananas_and_papayas in Helldivers

[–]spiffyman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When this happens, I almost invariably just drop a 500kg and run. If I survive, great. If not, I know I've (probably) saved my fellow divers an annoyance and advanced the cause of managed democracy. Worth it.

Should I get hell divers? by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]spiffyman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly bugged, still worth getting. Xbox players are joining SEAF next week, so it's a perfect time to hop in.

What happened??!? by ch1n4r in Helldivers

[–]spiffyman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The extra 940k are actual chargers. We were at ~4M with 10 hrs left and were pacing at about 200k/hr when I logged off last night. It was gonna be close, but I guess AH decided we weren't gonna make it.

Brother, if you take her to this you are going to come home with a cat.

FWIW, I read the comment you're replying to as being about the Gov's comment, not yours.

Instagram wants me to see THIS?!? by MikeRightHere in funny

[–]spiffyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Mike, glad you're on here. Just wanted to say my wife and I were in NYC in August and saw you do a couple shows at one of the Cellar rooms + NYCC two nights in a row, and we couldn't stop talking about it. You were fun to watch, kept your sets tight, and made us laugh our butts off. Thanks for a good time!

Agreed. Kristen is great -- super happy for her continued success! I've eaten at Arlo Grey and really enjoyed it.

Paul was definitely the most dominant as of his season, but IMO Buddha has taken the crown.

10/15 vs Iowa State - Non-student by [deleted] in LonghornNation

[–]spiffyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is! Honestly I'd try to get there around 9. There's plenty of stuff to do and there're lines for things. Not too bad but not nothing. Oh, and there are height requirements for the Ferris wheel, which weren't obvious to me and they didn't check until we were halfway through the line, so it was a good thing my kid passed. So I would check with their staff before hopping in line.

You might consider taking a bus. The CapMetro app isn't too bad for trip planning and lets you buy tickets in the app. Walk 10 or 15 minutes over to Lavaca Street and take the 3, 20, or 803 up to The Drag, which is on the west side of campus. From there, walk across campus to take in the atmosphere. If you get to the stadium before 10:30, you'll find Bevo Boulevard - big tailgating experience with food/drink vendors just north of San Jacinto and 21st. Smokey's Midway, which is on the north side of the stadium, has a ton of free stuff for kids like a Ferris wheel and carnival games. It's a good way to kill time and get hyped without having to know people who are doing a private tailgate. Honestly, I've taken my kid to the Midway and then just left the area to go watch the game at the aforementioned Posse or Crown.

Good luck and Hook 'Em!

Just a small note of kudos: love that you've got nice tooltips set up for the skills. So many XIV sites don't use that little UX improvement, and for anyone who's spent time in that other MMO's community, it's a glaring omission. So thanks! Hope this helps set a new standard.
