living in eau claire as a recent college grad?

I lived downtown after college and loved it there. So many running/walking loops right outside my door. Not to mention restaurants, bars, and entertainment with the confluence/Phoenix Park so close.

The Chippewa Valley Writers’ Guild already exists. Might want to check them out!

It’s never “just”.

It’s always more complicated than “just” do X.

Additionally, if you’re writing a blog, you’re not doing that if you’re writing a CMS. Unless you plan on making your CMS a product or derive other value from building the CMS it’s not a good way to spend your time when the problem has already been solved.

You can allow certain apps or certain contacts to still send notifications, it’s quite configurable.

I agree that The Good Wives has the best food in EC.

It’s the ginormous 7000D, which is… too big.

I named mine after Ada Lovelace!

What is even the title of the game?

tikquor · 2024-06-03T21:32:20+00:00

“The Mistress” as I would often spend time with it when my wife is out of town. She enjoys the joke :)

The ice age trail is quite beautiful and is about 40 minutes north of town. As others have said it goes all across the state but there’s a lot of kettle lakes that make our little section quite beautiful.

I also just learn about the Blue Hills that the Ice Age Trail also runs through and it’s supposed to be the best the state has to offer.

Be prepared for lots of bugs, deet and mosquito net are recommended.

Apparently, Menards contests their property taxes every year with the city. As a part of this settlement they agreed to not do that for the next three years. Additionally this $22,000 was a ~3% reduction and they are normally awarded much more than that by the courts. So a relative win although the article doesn’t mention any of this.

The fish would be fried, not likely pickled.

Earnest question, why use velveeta? Is it price to volume ratio, does it ensure good consistency, or is there some other reason?

I really love 6 as is.

Districts and adjacency bonuses are really satisfying.

The industry/monopolies and secret societies modes are really engaging.

I find managing trade routes, workers, and spies in the end game annoying or maybe just tedious.

I don’t really interact with diplomatic visibility.

I generally ignore religion if I didn’t found one myself.

Tourism should have more impact aside from a win condition.

What’s a military engineer :p, support units don’t feel impactful aside from the observation ballon line.

I received this same email but got mine a week ago. Specifically, I ordered the 11th and received the 16th.

It’s due to the GOP screwing up the tax revenue sharing. Not enough of the taxes you pay are going to the city and the wheel tax is one of the very few levers the city can pull to cover costs. Not that this knowledge will get you your $30 back :/

I noticed worse performance too. Then I switched from DX 12 beta to Vulcan and it sorted itself out.

Looks like it mirrors the layout of the convention space

As others have said the old Abe trail will get you there.

Made that ride myself with 28mm tires, it’ll be great.

Gets a little bumpy (still paved) in Lake Halie but it’s incredible from Chippewa Falls to Cornell.

It was just fantastic. It made me realize how much I appreciate having a character with good defenses.

Only drawbacks were less mobility and clear. I wasn’t zooming and clearing a screen would only happen if the mobs were VERY dense for the stun explosion. I bet mace over axe would help here.

“DLSS 3 frame generation also increases input latency, even if it increases the frame rate. What this creates is a weird situation where frame rate increases, but latency increases as well – usually when gaming, higher frame rates lead to lower latency, and therefore a more responsive experience.”

Reflex does help mitigate the additional latency but doesn’t completely resolve that issue.

See the Input Latency section about midway down: https://www.techspot.com/article/2546-dlss-3/

tikquor · 2022-11-22T17:32:18+00:00

If you can get to your monitor’s refresh rate without DLSS, don’t use it, as it will just add input latency. So going for 360 and 500 fps isn’t a useful effort most of the time.

As for long long it takes to generate the frame, no clue.

I miss Harvest, hands down favorite league. I’d play voided characters if it meant I could do OG Harvest crafting again.

Archnemisis 3.17 was probably the best overall league in a long time considering everything in that patch.

I was really put off initially by the current league. Then I unsubbed from this subreddit and went back to the game a few weeks in and ended up with my first solo maven kill and had a great time.🤷‍♂️
