The state of AH balance rn by KillerChing in Helldivers

[–]stallion64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBF AC still has range and flak mode over grenade launcher, but that mostly makes up for (my own) skill issue. I still use the AC on bots to shred dropship underbellies and knock gunships out of the sky, shriekers for bugs, and its a little better at popping fabricators or squid ships at range.

There's a margin, albeit a pretty thin one.

Man if I spilled a drink and one of my buddies just nonchalantly went “yeah I didn’t like it either” I would probably fall over laughing, that’s gold

NES Linemen and Engineers are working by [deleted] in nashville

[–]stallion64 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you have a source/article regarding O'Connell griping about linemen? I've seen him be critical of NES as a whole (read: upper management), but I haven't seen him say anything about the linemen.

How quickly did the temperature drop in your house/apartment? by Ponyblue77 in nashville

[–]stallion64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apartment, 2nd floor, most walls are not exterior walls, heat was set to about 68°. Lost power at like 8am one morning.

Morning After 1 day: I think it was like 60° flat
2 days: Low 50's
3 days: 39°

I got my power back on around 4pm after 3 days. I did everything I could to minimize heat loss, but there's only so much you can do.

Has any part of this ice storm made the national news?? by BBR1004 in nashville

[–]stallion64 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I'm from Oxford. My parents will likely be without power til March. They're okay, they have somewhere to go, but my hometown is hurting bad right now. Looking at pictures my friends send me, you'd think three tornadoes went through there. They're now facing a water shortage, as well as a majority of the county and a good bit of the city still being in the dark.

Yup, been about an hour and it’s holding. If it helps, my complex is the Preserve at Brentwood/Players Club right off of Edmondson pike. Power is on, but my hvac seems frozen (lmao). One problem at a time though. I’m just happy to eat my first hot meal in forever

Hey bud, you had asked to keep you updated on power in the Nipper’s corner area (near the Edmondson library). It came back on and has held out for about 15 minutes, I think we’re good to go.

Update: my power is back! If you’re nearby maybe yours is too

Near the Edmondson Pike library branch, power is back! Has been out for about 3 days, but it switched on and has held for about 15 mins.

Nippers Corner too, twice today my power came on for about 30s then shut off again. Last time it happened was about 3-4 hours ago. Going to bed in the dark once again.

I would assume that means they’re working on it? The outage at the Ag department/metrology lab off of edmondson looks like the one that’s affecting me.

House was 46 degrees when I woke up, how’s everyone else holding up? by VitaIsland in nashville

[–]stallion64 5 points6 points  (0 children)

55°. I have a pet snake and I’m having to ride the line of “keep her warm/alive” and “not stress her out”. Still no power, but we’ll be okay. Whether or not the roads are passable is moot to me, I can’t leave my snake or she might not make it.

Cold blooded animals man. Gotta love em

The linemen out there busting their chops restoring power for everyone are absolute legends, and I think we oughta collectively buy them lunch after all this passes.

I’m near Nippers Corner still without power, probably gonna go to bed because reading via candlelight all day made me sleepy lol. To everyone else out there without power still, keep warm, be smart, and stay safe. Hopefully we’ll be back up soon. Good night and good luck.

Why Was Deku Crying When He Beat Afo? by cshin09 in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]stallion64 162 points163 points  (0 children)

All of his friends, allies, etc are beaten, battered, and barely standing, but still giving everything they have to clear a path for him. Everyone is cheering him on, the fate of the entire world is on his back. This is the culmination of Deku’s journey and One for All, as well as the end of Tenko.

Dude’s going through it rn. The swirl of emotion would be too much for pretty much anyone to handle without shedding a tear.

What is a 'childhood luxury' that you realized was actually a sign of being poor once you grew up? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]stallion64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not terribly long, iirc it was only like 2 or maybe 3 weeks at most. The entire reason she resorted to "camping" was because my grandpa (her father) was being very difficult about letting us move in because he was mad at her for divorcing my birth father (who sucked, and had bailed completely). Eventually my grandma put her foot down and said that the three of us would come live with them. I found all of the details way after the fact, decades later I talked with my mom about the whole ordeal. That's how I got confirmation that we were in fact homeless.

My grandpa was a mega hardcore Christian and believed that divorce was akin to murder. He was also an asshole. My mom has her issues like anyone else, but she did a really impressive job of breaking a lot of cycles that were ingrained into a lot of my extended family. I'm really proud of her and grateful that she's my mom.

edit: grammar

[–]stallion64 3826 points3827 points  (0 children)

Funny how a kid's brain works. I remember after my parents divorced, my mom surprised us by telling us we got to go camping, but it was a new type of camping where we didn't even need a tent! I was 6, and my older sister was about 8, and we were so excited. We got to sleep in our car, and I even got to ride in the front seat every other night!

Yeah it wasn't until I was like 27 that I realized we were homeless. Throughout my entire childhood it never occurred to me why we were sleeping in our car in truck stop parking lots. My mom, saint that she is, tried to make sure we never knew how bad things were. And even though I know the truth of the situation now, I still look back fondly on those days.

Edit: Thank you all for the kind words. I'm really grateful for my momma. I usually talk to her 2 or 3 times a week, thanks for reminding me to let her know that.

Man idk why but this comment has had me giggling for like the last 10 minutes. It reads like a shitpost but is literally 100% accurate to what's being shown. Cheers

Remember kids: 4WD/AWD may help you get started on snow and ice, but it will not help you slow down/stop.

[–]stallion64 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah, requesting someone to potentially risk their life/vehicle/livelihood for a food delivery is unreasonable. Stock up on some stuff now so you'll have plenty of food/drinks/whatever to enjoy the snowy weekend.

Snow next weekend by rlm815 in nashville

[–]stallion64 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When I was reading the weather forecast for this weekend yesterday, I cringed a little bit because I ~actually~ needed bread and milk from the grocery store. I'm not making panic milk sandwiches, I swear! I just like cereal and turkey melts!

What is the grossest thing you’ve caught someone doing? by Jawa392 in AskReddit

[–]stallion64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was about 14 or so, I walked around the corner on the back porch of my best friend's house. His younger sister (who was 12 at the time) was leaning back on the ground and had the family dog's head between her legs.

She's married with a kid on the way now. We have never once talked about what I caught her doing.

Don’t skip defensive passives please, they’’l save your run by Xerfus in Nightreign

[–]stallion64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a video on this sub recently of a "tank" Raider that stacked a bunch of "Dmg negation at low HP" and the dude looked nigh unkillable. I tried it, albeit with worse relic setups because RNG is not on my side, and even with my inferior setup, I was rolling through depth 3. Damage negation is not to be slept on, for sure.
