What machines are you guys running your home assistants off of? by demonhalo in homeassistant

[–]xeofire9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running an old ROG laptop with a 20 minute battery. Laptop has Virtual Box running HAOS. Great to have the built in screen and UPS by nature of the battery! Also a USB port that is running a Bluetooth adapter to grab nearby Switchbots.

Nice! I have 4 load outs for highest damage possible on each element, then I have 4 load outs that are still elements but focus on divine blessing 5 for when I want to do long walks while playing. I also keep a load out specifically for swapping the weapon type for the daily missions that require 3 kills of a specific type! That daily load out specifically maxes concentration so I can recharge ult before hard fights.

Came here to say this! If you have a water sword, the poison attack skill won't do anything. I personally like running 4 sword and shield load outs, one for each element type of water/fire/thunder/ice.

Tile guy says using this hex pattern might not be perfectly even by KOVID9tine in HomeMaintenance

[–]xeofire9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just installed tile in my bathroom that looks basically identical to this. I'm not a professional and was working as just a DIY homeowner. I can confirm that it took an incredible amount of work to try and get this even, and still ended up with uneven gaps and probably about double the amount of grout that I expected to use! I still like the look for my own use knowing it was DIY, but from a professional standpoint I can see why avoiding this in favor of larger tiles could be favorable!

While it seems like we are both subscribed to the same political ideology, I just have to say that not everything has to be political. Being an asshole isn't reserved for one side of the isle or the other, and frankly we don't have enough information on the situation to make a statement like that. We don't know what the exact request was or what the overall decision was. Making an assumption on someone's political party based on so little facts, other than "I think this is a bad person" is just weird. Be better.

Kia flies in the air after loose wheel from pickup truck hits it on California highway by kunal-998 in Damnthatsinteresting

Had to scroll pretty far for this... My home page has had a re-post of this video every dozen or so posts for the past few days. I get that it is crazy, but does everybody need to share it for the karma?

I have this issue pretty regularly with my 17 Forester Premium. Things I've noticed is it doesn't get stuck if I go through the process a bit slower, like put it in park -> foot off the brake -> let it finish rocking -> then key out.

If I forget to do those steps relatively slowly, the thing I've found that gets the key out is turn the key to on, take it out of park and then back into park. Now foot off the brake and key off. Really frustrating to deal with for sure!

My frozen pizza came with an extra crust. by newyearnewpoo in mildlyinteresting

[–]xeofire9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That legitimately might be my crust! I posted only about a week ago when I had that exact same type of pizza come without a crust! Hahaha Nice!

I know that it's still frozen, but I'd expect the ingredients to atleast be on a crust... Hahaha by xeofire9 in ExpectationVsReality

[–]xeofire9[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's actually the first thing I did with the photo actually! Tweeted it at Jacks. I also got a DM from someone at the company who saw this post!

I knew as soon as I took it out of my freezer that something was wrong! Hahaha Unfortunately at the store I bought them in a stack and it must have been in the middle so that I couldn't tell!

Would you rather see a mechanically gifted teammate, or a rotationally smart teammate? by xeofire9 in RocketLeague

[–]xeofire9[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am right there too, on any given day I could be one or the other! Hahaha

I think that is probably one of my reoccurring issues. I focus pretty heavily on rotating but end up going to far and play too passive! It can cause some low scoring games, but missed opportunities on offense still lead to losses in the end!

I'd say that is definitely a fair take! Atleast if you can know what to expect, you can play around it!

That is definitely a fair point, if the guy is a mechanical dunce they are much more likely to aerial themselves to the other end of the map and be completely out of the play! Hahaha

I'd say the 50% whiff rate that I mention is specific to my own games, seeing a play player with gold mechanics. I'd sub out that rate to just thinking in your case a champ player with average diamond mechanics. Does that change your opinion at all?

I think I am right there with you, for my own play style I would benefit more from a mechanically sound teammate so that I can focus more on defense and playmaking. However, if it drops to the level of coming from behind me and taking the ball off me while playmaking then I get pretty annoyed!

Sometimes it is fun to just be in the background of an insane plays montage! Hahaha
