A friend of mine put in a offer on a house a year ago - at their asking price - and got a similar response. Like don’t make that your asking price if you’re going to get angry when people offer that? But I guess all the houses around that area were selling above asking and they probably already had much higher offers, still doesn’t excuse them being a dick.
- Comment on ARMA 3 Recieves Surprise Performance Update 2 weeks ago:
Heck yeah, I remember building out and optimizing my PC to squeeze every frame I could out of Arma 3 back when it released. I have such fond memories of that game, I played tons of casual multiplayer games and Arma 3 Project Life which was a really well done invite only life roleplay game mode (before the developers killed the community by being dicks).

No, they changed the pack colour for the camping stuff last time this happened. Unfortunately they forgot to change the pack colour for the portable anvil as well…
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 dev calls Randy Pitchford's $80 Borderlands 4 comments "gross" because it implies the FPS is more important than "making it day to day" 1 month ago:
If Ubisoft can convince themselves that Skull and Bones was the first “quadruple A game” and worth $70, then I doubt most studio execs can pull their heads out their ass for long enough to properly ask themselves that. Studios have completely lost touch with what people actually want and are willing to pay.

Hopefully they find a way to apply the fix permanently. I just did 2 RGH3 mods over the weekend which is the easiest hardware mod for the 360 and it was more challenging than I expected.

- Comment on The FAA Has a Big Problem with Mental Health 3 months ago:
It’s not just the FAA, it’s all aviation medicals. I’m a Canadian pilot who hasn’t been able to fly for years due to a ridiculously harsh ruling from our medical board requiring years of tests and thousands of dollars out of pocket if I ever want to have the chance to fly again. All over something my local aviation doctor predicted would take a month or two and I’d be back in the air. I tried to fight it but the review process is a joke and took a year before they even contacted me about my case. By that point I had dropped out of the university where I was doing my training to become a commercial pilot.
The big issue is aviation has zero tolerance for risk. Feeling depressed? Medical revoked. Issues sleeping? Medical revoked. Chest aches? Medical revoked. All it can take sometimes is a small issue. The thing is that, lets be honest, given the choice no-one really wants to get on a plane with a depressed or sleep deprived pilot. It’s added risk, so instead we require our pilots to be the healthiest one can be. But everyone has issues, even if you know it or not. There’s a reason alcohol abuse is so common in aviation. The thing that really needs to get figured out is, what’s the solution here? We either make pilots to continue to hide any health issues they have from their aviation medical doctor and pretend they don’t exist, until one day something horrible but totally preventable happens, or we start addressing the medical issues pilots face and being more lenient on what would take away their medical certificate - but then if something happens as a result the liability is now on the aviation governing body for allowing someone with a known issue to fly. The aviation medical system is fundamentally broken but I have no clue how it can be fixed.

Amphenol connectors. Used a ton in industry, military and aerospace. They are actually really nice when you get down to it, but you need expensive tools and the connectors themselves are usually quite expensive. I once had a client ask for a specific 6 pin one, only about the size of my thumb, it was $800.
- Comment on Question about (what I think are) gay selfies 4 months ago:
Hi, not gay but bi and I spend a lot of time in LGBTQ spaces. I personally have not heard of this meaning anything specific. Chances are that it’s just a quirky / goofy expression that they like. I have a few friends who are not gay where every photo has a similar expression, it’s just something some people do I guess 🤷

- Comment on Day 153 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots 6 months ago:
Me and a group of friends have a tradition of playing RD:O on thanksgiving. This year we had 6 preople, and after about 2 hours of trying we had to give up. No matter what we did we were unable to find a working server, they all had issues. Couldn’t call horses, weapons wouldn’t equip, some of us weren’t appearing to others, it was a mess. It’s such a charming game and world that’s let down by Rockstar’s servers and not being able to host your own locally. I might try to see about using RedM next year, but that’s extra work I’m not certain people will want to do.

A majestic flock of meese sounds better that just moose. How many moose? 1, 5, 20? You just don’t know. I’m currently in contact with my MP to resolve this issue, this is very important to me.

Fun fact, even if you try to hold a breaker in the ‘on’ position, it would still trip the exact same way. Pretty smart design (to stop pretty dumb people killing themselves or others).

I’ve been watching Tom for years and now that this video is here it gives me a very bittersweet feeling, it’ll be odd not having a new video from him on Mondays. But good on Tom for realizing what’s important to him and putting it first, although I do hope that some day he is able to return to YouTube or media. And you never know, depending on how much time he takes off, maybe the next series will be “Tom Scott goes to space”!

I’ve literally experienced this. We ended up with like 10 guys and the hole was about 5 foot in every direction by the time someone shut us down.
- Comment on Do you use the swipe to type feature on your phone? 1 year ago:
I tried it once years ago and couldn’t get into it, found it kept guessing everything wrong or I was using it wrong, not sure. But just recently I got a smartwatch and heard many people recommending it and on such a small screen, it’s incredibly good at what it does. I may try it again on my phone soon as I’m starting to like it.
