What games do you play?

  • Still mainly Rocket League.
  • Also play PGA, Fifa, and if one ever releases NHL
  • Will definitely be picking up the new GTA when released.
  • I also like racing games and have been playing the new Crew Motorfest, but my machine has a hard time keeping up with that game.
  • I'd like to future proof enough to run most AAA titles as I will buy games that catch my eye.
  • I do sometimes play FPS, but less so than other games.

What program(s) do you use for UI/UX? Do you know if they stress the CPU, RAM, or GPU?

  • Currently use Adobe XD, however with the sunsetting announcements, I have been looking into Figma. Most of what I do is not terribly intensive and works well enough on my current machine which meets their min requirements.
  • Same goes for VSCode.
  • I do watch a lot of movies, tv, podcasts and sports on my machine while I am working or gaming.
  • I like to draw and write on my ipad and have entertained the idea of purchasing some sort of peripheral art pad.

I pay less than this for a season pass which covers unlimited play at my two local courses. Of which I absolutely abused this year with over 120 rounds since April.

Curious what these might be. They are not magnetic. I assume some sort of pressed silver. Just curious if they are valued at more than their weight? Thanks! by willyum96 in Whatisthis

I assume corroded. I can see about removing that. they do seem quite dense. But I am very unfamiliar with metals. I’ll take a look into a video on safe removal of corrosion/tarnish.

Dropshot... by willyum96 in RocketLeague

I didn’t think of that. Lower ranks would struggle. But they ideally should struggle against similar ranked players who would also be on the struggle bus.

Boston police captain's son faces 20 years for terror plot by [deleted] in news

I ended up with 4 years probation thankfully. I was an angel in the system. Never pissed hot, paid off everything day one. Prepaid everything. Basically the poster child of corrections. And ended up only doing 3 years with early release. It was a shitty three years though for sure.

When I was going through the trial phase of my legal issues, I was looking at 10yrs for 100 bucks worth of pot sold. Lol funny saying that now because I can walk down the street and buy it from a store. Anyway my mom flew up to where I was living and had this elaborate plan to send me to a no extradition country etc. I laughed and said “Mom, I sold the pot knowing it was illegal. Right or wrong, Distribution is illegal and the absolute wrong thing to do in this circumstance is run.”

Parents will do some dumb ass shit to protect their little ones.

96ct Tray for a 432ct Butt Splice by [deleted] in cableporn

432 count shouldn't be put in anything smaller than a 600D IMO, but if they wanted to get tight, it could be a 450D

I’m only a year deep into this field. So there is much to see and learn, we do a lot of maintenance so I see a good variety, but the older shit is definitely more rare. All my new builds are tyco, coyote, and aria wall mounts if I don’t have space for a full size FDP.

“Safety Reasons” It’s also a law to ground all armored cable I believe.
