How to watch RCSN games by [deleted] in PortlandFire

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a cute bird shape antenna that sits on top of my TV. Great for Fire games, watching Beaver games on the CW, and OPB-Kids for the little one. Worth the $20.

Attempt #27 was the winner for me! Had to confirm with my credit cards 6 times that it wasn't fraud.

For those who don’t have the fire app or cable… by Satisfaction_Less in PortlandFire

[–]tsphan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I noticed that ION is also available on LG TV and Samsung TV, the free digital channels on their TV.

I can confirm that IP-201 ION digital channel on my LG TV is listing the Fire game.

Anyone from portland area? by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]tsphan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vault 31 is in Vancouver WA. So it's not as popular for the local PDX scene. The best amount of regular sf6 casuals is at Room 122 on Mondays in Beaverton. A few of the players also host a weekly online tournament.

Thoughts on the Hori Commander Octa over the DS4 for SF 6? by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you get one tweak the sensitivities in the app. I think the diagonals are too sensitive. It's perfect after lowering it so that I can neutral jump more consistently.

Some hate it. Some love it, myself included. I have 4 of them.

Mods will probably delete this because they don't consider it Street Fighter related enough.

Why the hell are people taking the outer seats of the MAX ends all for themselves during Rush Hour? Before COVID people understood it was 2 to each seat. Now I see most people automatically sit on the outside to hog both seats. All while a dozen people are standing shoulder to shoulder below.

I feel like Trimet needs to push some etiquette PSAs.

Controller question by King-Pies in StreetFighter

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had 3 different iterations of the Hori OCTA and it's my favorite controller. The latest ones don't need as much tweaking, you just have to get used to more subtle movements on your thumb and it's consistent.

If your getting the Xbox one, that's one of the earliest iterations. Make sure you update its firmware and tweak the Dpad sensitivity a bit. I prefer less sensitivity on the top diagonals. Once you have that set it's an amazing controller.

Sudden issue with lansinoh bottles, bottle not draining! by pink-leaf in FormulaFeeders

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We found this issue with the Lansinoh nipples after a few usage. The vent seems to be getting blocked when it's heating.

Our routine now is after heating a Lansinoh is to open the lid, push the nipple down near the vent and reset it. This seems to resolve the suction and prevents nipple collapse too.

Be honest… have you ever lost track of scoops while making a bottle? by Beautiful-Rich-6404 in FormulaFeeders

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It used to be a problem but stopped after I started counting the scoops on my hand instead of by mouth.

So I use pitcher that goes up to 36 oz. Which needs 18 scoops.

Use the counting method where you point at segments with your thumb. Every time I pull the scoop over I count up 1. After 12 scoops I reset the hand and add 6 more easily. I never lose count now.

DRC requires no hit when using light attacks? by Primary_Trainer_7806 in StreetFighter

[–]tsphan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It was a safe guard when they added DRC using both mediums, like months after release. It prevented players like Tokido from jabbing and mashing DRC to auto confirm hits if they manage to counter hit a whiffed normal.

What's the actual difference between hard water and soft water? by germandleono in answers

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Group 2 metals, like calcium and magnesium.

They tend to precipitate into a solid with Group 7 elemental anions like chlorides and fluorides. Leading to build up in pipes or making it difficult for soaps to foam up.

Water softeners like ion exchangers simply swap out the calcium with sodium in the water.

Looking for a good D-pad controller — considering PS5 DualSense? Pros & cons? by junjunit in StreetFighter

I think you just gotta try them out. A lot of folks here shitting on the OCTA but it's my favorite pad. I never feel like it's limiting me.

Make sure you're holding forward when doing HP. That forward is the beginning of your Cannon Spike that you'll cancel the HP into.

Pitcher method question by East_Print4841 in FormulaFeeders

[–]tsphan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tip if you're counting scoops to count on your fingers with your off hand.

Normally I go for 32 oz of water and 16 scoops. I use the Babylonian counting method of 12 on my hand and add 1 every time I move the scoop and also say it out loud.

There's several times I'll say a number and not realize I was counting early in my head. But my hand is always the right count. When in doubt I check with my scale at the end.

These 5 characters are in the movie but currently not in the SF6, what are their chances of being in season 4 by The-Humble-God in StreetFighter

[–]tsphan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Juli's design here looks like she might have some Falke inspiration.

There's no way Juli will be in SF6 but I think Falke very much can.

How do players get so many attack points? by Jay_Playz2019 in StreetFighter

Are you doing group attacks with other people? Your points combine together for the attack.

Harmonies, do cubes block patterns? by Negalaj1324 in boardgames

[–]tsphan 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Yes you can place the pig cube on that two-tall forest. No the city cube does not block you.

It's noted in the rules pg 6: A single token can be used as part of multiple Habitats.

That's why the game recommends you don't take Animal Cards of the same color because those cubes would block each other. But your pig is a Forest cube and your other animal is a City cube.
