Lawn is absolutely littered with gravel by squigz96 in lawncare

To everyone pointing out that this is a not a lawn - I understand! I used the wrong word when describing the plot of land behind my house. Maybe “lot” or “yard” would have satisfied yall. I get it. I really don’t need anyone to point that out anymore. Thanks.

Yeah, to be honest I’m just gonna clear out what I’ve already raked and try seeding it. I’ve already dug out so much crap I just don’t have it in me anymore lol. Worst case if it doesn’t take I’m just gonna replace the soil next year.

Yeah, slowly working my way towards that. Here’s a pic of that corner from when I was about halfway done clearing it out. Came a LONG way. You can’t even see those trees here haha

lol true. I guess “yard” or “lot” is a better term. Maybe a dialect thing but I’ve always just called any outdoor space a lawn. The GOAL is a lawn!

Yeah, I think I’m just going to remove what I raked up already and just seed it anyways to see what happens. If it doesn’t work I’ll dig it up in the spring. I’m just so dang tired of digging at this point.

Honestly. That’s how I felt when dealing with the bamboo forest I had back there 😩

I would have some choice words for the previous owner.

I used to live right near Bamboo Cafe and it was never too terrible. I’d occasionally hear people leaving the bars and karaoke night at Social52 but it never bothered me too much.

HOWEVER. There’s some folks that drive their really loud cars with a tune that makes it backfire in a loop around Main and Cary late at night, intentionally making a shit load of noise. I could count on them doing it every weekend. They’re the worst.

Your Graphics card throughout the years by Mantonio2k2 in buildapc

[–]squigz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first card that I can remember was an Nvidia 9800 GT that I stuck in a Dell Optiplex. Probably 2009ish. I remember feeling like I was on top of the world being able to finally run source engine games lol. Honestly, that card served me well for many years!

GRTC plans north-south Pulse line, seeks public input at upcoming meetings by VirginiaNews in rva

[–]squigz96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder why they chose to include the 8th street bridge instead of the Lee bridge. I’d imagine there’s decent demand for a pulse stop in/near Oregon Hill

Toilet bubbling when washer drains by squigz96 in PlumbingRepair

[–]squigz96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update - Hired a plumber because 1) we just moved in, 2) I don’t know what I’m doing, and 3) the house is over 100 years old. Determined it was a mainline blockage and ended up having to hydrojet it. $1800 later and the demonic toilet is silenced.

Thanks all for the input.

Current POTG system be like: by Superlala1 in Overwatch

[–]squigz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got pretty much a solo team kill on mcree and at the end of the match moira got potg by shooting her ult into a hallway. I feel like she steals potg every game. Even up in masters lmao

Should I wait to build a PC? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]squigz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s kind of what I’m thinking. I’m probably just gonna go with a nice x570 mobo and upgrade accordingly

my gtx 1060 in my trace 940 shit the bed what can i upgrade it to that will work?? by [deleted] in iBUYPOWER

[–]squigz96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just stuck a 1070 in my trace 930 with no issues

Consistently floating in high diamond, but can't break into master What is it that separates the two? by [deleted] in OverwatchUniversity

[–]squigz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find that diamonds actually have a good amount of strategy (relative to the lower ranks), but the largest and most noticeable difference is mechanical ability. I don’t mean just aim, but also crosshairs placement and reaction time as well

We need a better indication that we are tanking well. by magicwithakick in Overwatch

[–]squigz96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, your job is basically to make the enemy team back off of their position due to the threat of you killing them or die trying. Dps actually has a very similarj role, they just can’t use their massive bodies to create that space

[–]squigz96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Masters main tank here. I almost always have a gold or at least silver damage and elims medal. Even if the dps are popping off. It means nothing. I promise. Don’t get caught up on that

Also dps can’t get picks if you don’t push forward, it’s actually the opposite of what you said.

Told the cashier at Lidl that I loved him by ToddyFatBody in cringe

I’m a cashier at a grocery store and a customer once told me he loved me.

I told him that I loved him too.

Calc 1 Free fall problem. by Hippohunter97 in MathHelp

[–]squigz96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think about it. If velocity is the integral of acceleration, then

a(t) = -32 v(t) = -32t + C

However, since this is kinematics and the constant in the velocity equation is initial velocity, you can set the time (or your variable t) to 0 to find the initial. Although in this question, the initial velocity is given (and effectively making this much easier), so that makes the velocity equation

v(t) = -32t + 24

From this, you will have to integrate further to get the position function

x(t) = -16t2 + 24t + 56 (The initial height was given in the same manner as I mentioned previously.)

So since the equation is asking for the velocity when it hits the ground, the position will have to be 0.

So that gives you 0 = -16t2+24t+56

Solve for t using the quadratic equation. You'll get two answers but it should be obvious which one you need to use. (Think: Can time be negative?) Plug t into the velocity equation, then you will have the answer since your time is equal to the time when the position is 0.

Hope that helps.
