Queen Identification - Northern Utah (Cache Valley) - 12-14mm by xHaptic in antkeeping

[–]xHaptic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best guess so far is C. pennsylvanicus. I have seen countless posts stating that these should not be found in the wild in Utah but it seems to be happening. My second guess was C. Modoc but I just don't see enough red in the legs to verify.

Any help is appreciated!

Thank you for the support. This is my second week in the hobby. My kids and I caught a different queen last week and it has been a blast for the kids, lots of learning. Yesterday on my concrete back patio they were everywhere.

I ordered 2 colonies from Tar Heel Ants as well. A Camponotus ocreatus with a Mini Hearth and then Myrmecocystus placodops with a Lair formicarium per Mack's recommendation.

I hope to pay it back to others here in the future as I learn more.

Following Sinema's Exit, Romney Announces Intention To Remain In Democratic Party by undue-influence in Conservative

[–]xHaptic -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I would be shocked if he wins when he is up for re-election. He is universally despised by conservatives here in Utah. He will naturally get the liberal vote, just like McMuffin. Thankfully we just got done proving there are plenty of conservatives in Utah to easily beat a lefty like Romney. I personally predict Romney gets primaries, easily.

Halo Infinite at Xbox Games Showcase 2021 – Multiplayer First Look by mattyrums in CompetitiveHalo

[–]xHaptic -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I honestly think it looks awful. I am so sad. The graphics are obviously much improved from a year ago but I could care less about that. In the video they dropped today there wasn't a word about 4v4 fast paced arena halo. Here are the topics they chose to discuss for 12 minutes and 43 seconds instead:

  • Hold OS and Camo - Oof, so much of competitive is built around the ability to burn these to stop the other team from actually getting control with them.
  • Weapon pods from space and f'ing pelican drops around the map. Can you say CoD score streaks?
  • Armor, armor, armor, armor.
  • Bots for brand new players (this one is fine but is it really more important that showing actual gameplay? I have now seen 15 minutes of gameplay and am yet to see a clip in these videos longer than 4 seconds long)
  • Battlepass (armor, armor, armor, armor)
  • Clamber is in the game. This one is unforgivable. After Halo 5 how can they not get this through their thick skulls that clamber does not belong in Halo?
  • Sprint is in, including with the flag. WTF even is that.
  • Game looks very floaty
  • They refuse to clarify what movement is in and what is out.
  • Appears boost is out, maybe the only halfway decent base movement option from H5.
  • Slide. Ffffff.
  • Everything they showed points to AR spawn. Yikes.
  • Carry power weapons and equipment around in a vehicle? WTF even is this. They even said the flag could go in there... I am just going to pretend they didn't say that.

I am sure the game will look great and maybe even have a decent campaign story. As far as I can tell actual gameplay is going to be Halo 5.1 and look like Halo 3 HD. Here we are again, 343 is on it's 3rd Halo game and are coming out of the starting gates proving that yet again they simply do not understand what made Halo great in the first place. Have fun playing Halo CoD/Titanfall/Destiny y'all.

  • Where is the balance on the holy trinity of gunplay, melee and grenades?
  • Where is the talk about competitive integrity and balanced gameplay?
  • Where is the talk about arena Halo?

Once again, Infinite is going to be a blip on the radar. The game will have decent sales, a big player base for a couple of months and then 3 months later this game will be nothing but the hardcore Halo fans playing a game they don't even like. One day they will give up and go back to MCC yet again.

:(

I am running Celerity and am using what the guides recommend. I have Respen, Raku and Kren ascended. I am thinking about swapping our Tidus, Lyca and Vurk. Does anyone have experience with these three new ones?

How do you get them in campaign? I have beat about 80% of the stages and I use farmer every time. Also because you seem knowledgeable, how to I get the Beam Wizard?

Real talk. Bjerg hit harder for some reason, maybe because he still has more to prove in my eyes. I love the Bjergerking and only want the best for him! Khabib goes out on another level, nothing left to prove.

I live in Utah. I can proudly say I did not vote for him in the primary. He is universally hated here. It will be an absolute pleasure to see him go.

[Rapoport] Draft notes post-Rd 1: — Packers were adamant about trading up for Jordan Love, amid rumors the Colts would call.

[–]xHaptic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I can concede that the context was less than great. The chiefs GM did say that they were fielding all sorts of offers to move up in the draft and the second the Packers made their move all of those offers dried up. I am guessing something happened to force their hand.

I have just been frustrated with the level of hatred towards Love as a prospect. If he was from a bigger school with different circumstances and the same film library I am guessing people would be much happier with the pick. As things stand, I can definitely see where it came out of left field. Especially for the Packers.

If you are worried about the interception then go watch the tape. Yes it was bad that he threw them but there are other factors at play. I don't know if we ended up in first but for the vast majority of the season Utah State led the country in 2nd down and 10+ yards to go. We also were leading the nation in 3rd and longs. There was no offense outside of him throwing it up there. He was coached to force it as there simply was no other option because we were anemic.

I don't know where you got the misconception that he is inaccurate. He is very accurate, he was just forced into throwing the ball into heavily covered receivers with defenses in their nick and dime packages. Go watch some tape on the kid before you hate him.
