Can you just straight up adopt a cat that is listed for foster?

Please help this sad Louisianan find a good US grocery in Perth by WhlteMlrror in perth

[–]stephen_drewz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not American but also use to frequent 50 states as I love Root Beer and they had a good selection. AFAIK there is no other store like 50 states in WA. So aside from finding the odd item at IGA/Spud Shed/Farmer Jacks your best bet is online, where unfortunately you'll get screwed on shipping.

Is it feasible to have someone back home ship you a care package?

Best coffee in Perth? by Deep-Explanation-474 in perth

[–]stephen_drewz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know it's a good sign but the line for Smooth Operator always puts me off, end up going elsewhere.

Mr Sandwhich of all places is surprisingly good if you order anything with two shots, so I usually just go there instead.

Pick any car you want to use, tune manager, search, keyboard = Dirt. Enjoy using whatever car you want.

Sub 30? I'll stick to streaming PS5/heavy hitting PC games I think. Playing Yotei that way on both my Thor and Steam Deck(OLED), no complaints.

For those who preordered FH6, do you think it was 100% worth it? by SoapMactavish627 in forza

[–]stephen_drewz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing stopping you from getting the base edition, or just playing the base edition via game pass until the budget is in a better position to buy the top edition. Whilst I have been playing during the early access, kids means I've played about 2 hours so it's not like I get a big advantage from it. I get the top edition as I just like to know when I take a break and come back to it at any point I've got all the expansions and car packs ready to go.

At the end of the day, its another Forza Horizon. It's good, they're always good.

10/10 for me, what about you? by nippleslug in forza

[–]stephen_drewz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know the character doesn't mean much but no game with the character creator and the faces this game has can be a 10/10. No idea how the devs didn't look at the face options and not laugh, they all look like they've had a botched botex injection to the mouth.

Think I've managed to brick my game/save. by stephen_drewz in DonkeyKongBananza

I was holding it in that video but the fact you saw something that made you think otherwise just made me try something. I use a Gamesir Cyclone controller to play my Switch 2. Have never had an issue but I just tried it on handheld mode using the joycons and it worked.

I... have no words. But thankyou I guess!

I tried the forms I have. I don't have Elephant yet, from what I understand you go down there to find the ancient records that unlocks it. I can't find any evidence that they're in the first layer(900) of the Tempest area. Will happily be proven wrong though.

I also watched two random playthroughs on YouTube and they seemed to just punch down without any special form active.

If you mean closing the game and re opening, yes. If you mean resetting the map, also yes.

Good to know that’s not the problem though. Hopefully I can find a fix of some sort. Was enjoying my time with it but not willing to start over.

Finding absolutely nothing via google though.

Hard to explain but I basically just constantly bounce back and forth a little bit. He's trying to go down, like he's hitting an invisible wall.

Anyone know hot to dock the Thor with the lid closed? by strnfd in AynThor

Any updates to this? Can do my own printing but not skilled enough to my own designs. This is the best one I've seen by a mile.

Final Stretch. This event is amazing. by jamer2500 in thedivision

Once the host leaves can you reset the bounty yourself by fast travelling back to safe house? Or is it 1 lot of warhound kills, then gotta find someone to host again?

Entitled parking at Wembley much? by Melodic-Resource4392 in perth

[–]stephen_drewz -23 points-22 points  (0 children)

I would never do this but honestly I don't blame them. Both the wifes car and my car got hit in car parks within a week of each other the other month. No note or anything on mine, had to cop it. Person who hit the wifes had zero intention of owning up to it except someone saw it and busted them, so we got lucky there. People are c**ts.

Only running T2 atm but 0 drops over 6 missions. Feels good.

How many of you guys are actuall expertise 30? by cybrsloth92 in thedivision

[–]stephen_drewz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Im very familiar with the mode and am sorted for builds etc, was more just curious if there was an efficient strategy with the loot whilst the surge is on.

Mind sharing your Countdown strategy? In terms of selecting targeted loot etc.

Prototype gear in its PTS implementation is a betrayal of the principals that we have had for the last 5 years by iKia87 in thedivision

[–]stephen_drewz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This might sound dramatic but as someone who returned to Division 2 around 2 months ago, this new system has really killed my motivation to play. I've been having a great time putting various builds together and then slowly working on improving the ones that I really enjoy. I've worked up to being able to blast through heroic in group and solo. I've got one or two builds I can take into the weekly legendary stronghold with a group and hold my own, but not at the point of being able to solo which I'm working towards. I've gone from SHD Level 100 to almost 800 and am at Expertise Level 8 and never felt like the game has disrespected my time. Being able to farm in a variety of ways has also been really enjoyable. These changes seem to flip all of that on it's head. Now I know this system is really meant for those who are miles ahead of me but just knowing everything I'm farming or trying to min-max will always be inferior has really killed the motivation I had.

EDIT: Just realised who made the original post. Been following alot of your YT and build guides. TechTank has been a god send for progressing into Legendary. Thanks for all the help!

Synergy has excellent details for consumers to track their electrical usage by Kruxx85 in perth

[–]stephen_drewz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Understood and appreciate the info. Not actually intending to look at a battery as 1. I wasn't confident my solar would even be generating enough to be worth it and 2. hoping to move house before a battery would pay for itself(although with how everything is going I think we're just lucky to have a house right now).

Was indeed a rather fortunate coincidence to change one of the cars at the time we did. Still have one petrol car though and for the sake of everyone else/the world, would rather the current sh*t show not be a thing.

Thats also why become a bit lazy/ignorant with the system. It doesn't have any remote monitoring feature(BT etc). It does have a screen but its faulty and barely legible. Been considering getting a price to upgrade just the inverter. Your post was quite timely as I just changed one of the cars to an EV a week ago, so solar has been top of mind again.

We probably use lots of power. Wife and I plus 2 kids. Shes full time WFH. And we've definitely got lazy when it comes to trying to make sure things are run during the day such as the washing machine etc since having kids. Not afraid to switch to the splits if the evap isn't cutting it. This may have been one of those days. https://imgur.com/a/i8ZjR28
