2023.06.01 14:34 AdrIkkan Has anyone seen this trash talking video I'm describing? [COD]
Hey guys, this might be a hard question but I've tried so hard to find the video again for so long and never managed to do it. It was a video where the game ends (I'm pretty sure it was MW remake but not sure tbh) and players were still in the score results screen, and you could see the map they were playing in and also, they could use voice chat between teams right there.
So one of the winners, said "Hey yo, how you XBOX (bit**es/ hard R N word, don't remember which) like it, my n***a?? How you XBOX (b****es/ N-word) like that??" And people everywhere would start to rage with him but it was mostly some console war, apparently they were playing with crossplay and there's this one guy that goes "I'm playing on PC the f*** you talkin' bout??". I don't know if this rings any bells with you guys, but that video was hilarious and I'm having a really hard time trying to find it tbh. If anyone has seen it or has access to it I would love to save it, my friend cried from laughter when I showed him and I can't see him often anymore so I'd like to send it to him again one of these days. Thanks in advance! Oh also, in case I messed up with the tags or maybe this subreddit isn't fit for these questions, I'd appreciate it if you can point me in the right direction to know where to ask. Thanks!

2023.06.01 14:33 TeamYourNoobs A message to TiMi
Dear TiMi: I am writing to express my dissatisfaction on the current meta and the system.
I am a OG player playing since day 1 of mobile release until today, and enjoyed quite a lot of the activities. But I noticed some issues getting worse and worse this moment.
Firstly, the increase on prices of pokemon really made F2P players struggle. From the originally acceptable 10k coins to a 14-15k coin leap is really unacceptable. And also, the free skins are really limited and I already got by far everything and no update was made. I still have over 1k fashion tickets at this point.
Secondly, the recent unreasonable buffs on certain Pokémon and the release of overpowered defenders have really affected the meta a lot. The past Reign of Terror from Zacian and Espeon was barely acceptable, but GOD DAMN GLACEON GOT A BUFF JUST FOR A MF GEM SKIN WHICH RELEASED 2 WEEKS LATER! Also, Lapras and Umbreon are really breaking the game. THE LAST THING WE NEEDED IS A SELF-SUSTAIN DEFENDER WITH HINDRANCES AND DAMAGE ENOUGH TO SOLO A SPEEDSTER AND ATTACKER!
Thirdly, most players have really expressed their dissatisfaction on the matchmaking system. Bot matches are acceptable for me, but WE DONT NEED 1 GOLD BADGE AND 3 BLUE BADGE POKEMON ON THE OPPOSING TEAM WITH NOTHING ON OUR TEAM!
So, to fix the problems, I have these suggestions:
1.Lapras Water pulse: =Can only hit 3 times with Water Pulse+ =Reduced damage and recovery
Bubble Beam: =Reduce Damage =Reduce hindrance length
2.Umbreon
Foul Play: =Reduce Damage =Reduce Hindrance length
Snarl: =Reduce damage =Reduce hindrance length =Remove Hindrance Resistance Status
Mean Look: =Reduce hindrance length =Can be blocked by hindrance resistance and unstoppable
- Glaceon =NERF THE FKING DAMAGE
- Free holowear =Update the shop once in the 2nd anniversary
- Pokémon price =Remove gem lock and reduce price =Discount also available for coins
I, TeamYourNoobs, and probably at least half the community, sincerely hope you may concern these changes to make this game further developable and not wasting the great potential of this great game.
If any of the mods have he power to pass this message to the development team, please do, and I represent the community to thank you.
Sincerely TeamYourNoobs

2023.06.01 14:33 DullFreedom3810 Help with mods
Would anyone who is versed in installing mods via game banana be able to help me install them properly? Every time I do so they don’t seem to work. I would appreciate the help. All videos I have watched seem to be useless with their steps. I would appreciate someone guiding me through the steps properly if possible.

2023.06.01 14:33 Total_Pumpkin_2044 Due to a recent post from me in this subreddit
Due to a recent post from Me some one was acting toxic and mean and then that caused a big fight between two other redditors in the community. This is ridiculous I got involved and tried to calm the situation down and reminded them that this is a respected kind community. Be nice is in the rules! and we need to respect that. We must be a strong safe and kind community to each other because we all share the same love for the fable game series and want to talk about it and enjoy talking about it. Please remember that and think before you comment something harsh and negative is it really worth it?

2023.06.01 14:33 PoGoNL Pokémon storage space: the data 2016-2023 (a new space upgrade is needed!)
TL;DR - Here's a graph showing the ratio between Pokémon storage space and available Pokémon in Pokémon Go over time:
https://imgur.com/a/viBBU4k - Since June last year, the ratio between storage space and available Pokémon has steadily been getting worse and has not been this bad since October 2021, even without counting the introduction of all the XXS and XXL Pokémon. - Never in the history of the game has it been as long as the current streak between two significant Pokémon storage space increases (on June 4th it has been a year) - When adding lucky and XXS/XXL Pokemon the ratio has never been worse:
https://imgur.com/a/lc4WeGt INTRODUCTION
Recently, I found myself with another Pokémon storage space problem that I feel I haven't had in a while and with the new season starting, I thought it would be good timing to see if me and the other people complaining about low storage space are just bad at maintenance or if there is a point to it.
Let's first make one thing clear: This analysis is obviously catered to living dex collectors. If you are not in that group, that is fine, but a comment like "just toss all the useless Pokémon, they are already in your Pokédex" does not help for us who have been hunting for living dexes in all our Pokémon games since getting Red version back in 1999 and find that the main appeal of the Pokémon franchise. To each their own play style.
THE DATA
To analyse the possible need for another storage space increase I decided to track the number of available Pokémon at the end of each month as logged on the timeline at
pokemongo.fandom.com and offset that against the available Pokémon storage space at that time. A full table of all the data can be found in the table at the bottom of this post. I decided to include all available Pokémon, their regional forms, as well as event forms, shadow and purified forms as well as their shinies. I decided not to include gender differences to save some time and not to include movesets/lucky/XXS/XXL forms because they may overlap with the other categories.
RESULTS
The final column of the table at the bottom of this post shows the storage divided by the total number of Pokémon at the time and is the main analysis tool used to determine how pressing the need for a Pokémon storage space increase is. When put into a graph that looks like this over time:
https://imgur.com/a/viBBU4k CONCLUSION
- Since the last big storage increase of 500 spaces back on June 4th, 2022 (in a few days that will be one year ago), the ratio has steadily been going down. Not even the four months in which they added 50 spaces have been significant enough to bring the ratio up even a little. - With a full year since the last major storage increase, this has been the longest period in between major storage increases since the 11 month gap between december 2017 and november 2018. - With a storage/Pokémon ratio of 2,25, the current ratio is the lowest since the double 500-storage increase that was done in novembedecember of 2021, before which it was at 2,18, not much lower than it is currently.
DISCUSSION
- For those collectors that keep 1 of every male and female form, a ratio of around 1,95 is the lowest it can go before they can not keep a living dex anymore. I think that should be avoided at all cost and the fact that in June 2020 it was already so close means they could barely keep any extras for PvP/raids/trade/nostalgia purposes. Of course, (almost) no one playing the game legitimately will actually have a complete dex, but nevertheless. - If i add a rough estimate of the number of lucky and shiny Pokémon, the graph would look like this:
https://imgur.com/a/lc4WeGt - If the leaks about XXS/XXL being important for contests are right, I believe we very desperately need a big increase in storage space
Let me know your thought!

2023.06.01 14:32 pachecogeorge Newbie Radio recommendation
Hello, I am thinking of getting a radio, I must clarify that I am a complete novice, I have basic notions of how a radio works because as a child my uncle explained and showed me his shortwave radio, I remember it was great to listen to stations from other parts of the world and it is something I would like to teach my son too.
I want to listen shortwave with my son but, honestly I have no idea what to buy. I live near an airport, so, I want to hear AIR Band too and show to my son planes arriving or departing from our airport and showing him the plane's information using Flightradar24.
I want to buy an entry level radio, I have found this radio:
Is there any other recommendation?
Best regards.

2023.06.01 14:32 EquivalentJaded318 Just need some comfort
Sorry for my english, its not my first language.. I have a story, i wanted comfort or advice about it, i have been with a man for now almost 4 years. I broke up with him yesterday. Did I made a mistake? He told me he wanted to take lessons to know how to drive a motorcycle, and wanted me to pay for them. Just so you know, he always was short on money and i helped him a lot, i was working and i know his parents never gave anything since he was a child, i started to give him gifts for the 4 years we were together. Even when there was no occasion, I bought him computer, tablet, gaming console, expensive shoes, clothes, a gucci bag, watch etc… I had spend a lit because he was my priority and i am someone who give gifts a lot when I like the personn, and I loved him a lot. But I wanted him to give me stuff too, i dont know if its sound egoist but I wanted him to buy me present, the 3 years we were together, i never had anything for my birthday, I was crying because i tought i was not good enough to get gifts. And when he would see me crying, he would say he will change because i deserve it. But the motorcycle thing broke me, he expected me to pay and support him when all i wanted was little attention from him, and for him to spend some money on me. But when i told him he didnt need to learn that now he could spend his money on better things For now, he just said that I stop people from having fun and i should back off. It literally broke my heart , after all i did he was my priority, and i wanted him to have the best things? but i had to break up because i knew he would never change.. is it my fault? I should have been more supportive?

2023.06.01 14:32 GavinReeduzz Birthday coming up
In 8 days I turn 16, in 8 days it's also the 2 year anniversary of when I was sexually exploited. In 8 days I'm finally done with 15, the age of which I tried to take my own life on Halloween night and again on November 1st. The year of my life which was wasted sobbing and hurting myself, smoking, drinking, getting high and wasting my potential so I could forget I had to feel for a few hours. I'm not happy that I'm making it to 16 in fact thinking about it makes me want to give up. Stop myself from another wasted year of sobbing and the fear of relapsing. Im scared. I'm scared ill give up but I'm also pretended that I won't. Death doesn't scare me nearly as much as living does. "Seasonal depression" doesn't really seem to be so seasonal it actually feels pretty life long now.

- Big lover of video games; my favorites are mostly on PC but I also have a PS4 too! My most played games are: Overwatch, League of Legends, Valorant, Apex Legends, Fortnite, Dead by Daylight, and a couple other games too! If you play any of these, hit me up! If you play MMOs, bonus points!
- When I’m not busy being a gaming dork, I also love movies, tv shows, anime (especially anything Ghibli and the 90s era), creepy and horror stories, and conspiracy theory. Tell me about your favorite series or theory! I love everything from Marvel/DC to Harry Potter and Star Wars to LOTR and other types of fantasy/fiction. I also dabble in fanfics and writing too.
- Loves to cook and makes domestic and foreign cuisines. I especially love anything Asian and oriental style.
- Enjoys being around animals and nature. I own a Morkie puppy and he’s my favorite in the world.
- Finds learning about different cultures and languages to be interesting! If you have any to talk about, I’d be down to learn more about them!
- Loves all forms of music genres (grew up with hip hop/rap, and also slowly got into EDM and house music over the years and then also got into alternative/indie rock as time went by).
If any of this catches your eye, send me a message! I’d love to hear from you.

2023.06.01 14:31 TheYodelingYeti Cant get out of Copper
I've had the game now since the start of Y8, love it and I think ranked is so fun to play. Although my issue is getting out of copper, I keep getting to Copper 1 then just fall right back to copper 3. I'm by no means the best player, but I think the big issue is coms, no one at least low down communicates on my team bars me, so it's impossible. How'd you all deal with this? Any tips on getting out?

2023.06.01 14:31 99evan99 A Nostalgic Flashback: How My Dad Nearly Killed Me Street Racing in his '70 Chevy Chevelle
Hey, fellow Redditors! Gather 'round, because I'm about to take you on a nostalgic trip back to the '80s. Picture this: it's 1984, and I'm a wide-eyed teenager, eager for adventure. This is the story of how my dad, in his iconic 1970 Chevy Chevelle with a light grey body and fierce black racing stripes, took me street racing and nearly sent us both to the great junkyard in the sky.
Back in those days, my dad's Chevelle was the epitome of cool. With its powerful V8 engine and sleek design, it was a beast on the streets. And one fateful summer evening, my dad decided it was time to share that thrill with me.
We lived for the weekends, when the city streets became a battleground for drivers seeking an adrenaline rush. As the sun began to set, casting a golden hue on everything in sight, my dad approached me with a glint in his eyes and a sly grin. He said, "Son, tonight's the night. You and me, we're going street racing."
My heart skipped a beat at the thought of racing through the city like the heroes in the movies. I hopped into the passenger seat, and the familiar smell of worn leather and a touch of gasoline enveloped me. The engine roared to life, a symphony of power that made my pulse quicken.
As we cruised through the neon-lit streets, the anticipation grew. We rolled up to a stoplight, and beside us was a souped-up Mustang, revving its engine, daring us to a showdown. My dad, never one to back down from a challenge, met the driver's gaze with a determined stare.
The light turned green, and all hell broke loose. The Chevelle's tires squealed as my dad unleashed its raw power, propelling us forward with a surge of adrenaline. The engine roared like a caged lion, and the city lights streaked past us in a blur. I couldn't help but feel an intoxicating mix of excitement and fear.
As we thundered down the streets, I caught glimpses of the world outside—a patchwork of cheering spectators and neon signs, all merging into a high-speed symphony. My dad skillfully maneuvered the Chevelle through the winding roads, showcasing his experience behind the wheel. The wind whipped through my hair, and the rhythmic rumble of the engine echoed in my ears.
But as we pushed the limits of speed, reality began to set in. The risks we were taking became all too clear. I glanced at my dad, his face reflecting a mix of exhilaration and concern. It was in that moment that I realized just how dangerous our adventure had become.
Then, the unthinkable happened. In a sudden twist of fate, a police siren wailed, piercing through the night like a banshee's cry. Panic seized us as red and blue lights flashed in the rearview mirror. The adrenaline that had once fueled our joyride now turned into a cold wave of fear.
My dad's instincts kicked in, and he skillfully navigated the Chevelle through a maze of narrow side streets, desperate to evade the pursuing law enforcement. We narrowly avoided collisions, the Chevelle's tires screeching in protest. My heart pounded in my chest as we raced against the clock.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, we found ourselves hidden in an alley, the sounds of the chase fading away. We caught our breath, knowing that we had narrowly escaped a brush with the law—and potentially far worse consequences.
As we sat there, the
reality of our actions sank in. My dad turned to me, a mix of remorse and relief in his eyes. He said, "Son, I'm sorry. I let the thrill of the moment cloud my judgment. We could have lost everything."
That night marked a turning point for both of us. We realized the importance of responsibility and the fragility of life. Street racing, once an exhilarating fantasy, became a cautionary tale etched in our memories.
So there you have it, Reddit—a wild and perilous ride down memory lane. It's a story that serves as a reminder of our youthful follies and the lessons we learned along the way. Remember, it's one thing to crave excitement, but it's another to appreciate the value of safety and the consequences of our actions.

2023.06.01 14:31 David_pc What's the best SSD for optimal gaming performance?
Hello fellow tech enthusiasts,
I hope you are all doing well. I am currently in the market for a new SSD to enhance my gaming experience, and I could really use your expert advice. With the ever-increasing demand for faster load times and smoother gameplay, I want to make sure I invest in the best SSD available.
Here are a few things I'm considering when it comes to choosing the right SSD:
Speed and Performance: I want an SSD that can handle the demands of modern games and provide lightning-fast load times. What are the crucial specifications I should look for in terms of read/write speeds and random IOPS for optimal gaming performance? Capacity: While I understand that larger capacity SSDs are generally more expensive, I don't want to compromise on storage space either. What capacity would you recommend for a gaming SSD that can accommodate a decent collection of games without breaking the bank? Durability and Reliability: Gaming sessions can be quite intense and extended, so durability and reliability are crucial factors for me. Which brands or models have proven to be reliable and have a good track record in terms of longevity and endurance? Compatibility: I want to ensure that the SSD I choose is compatible with my current system setup. Are there any specific compatibility considerations I should keep in mind when selecting an SSD for gaming? Value for Money: While I'm willing to invest in a high-quality SSD, I also want to ensure that I'm getting the best bang for my buck. Are there any SSDs that strike a good balance between performance and affordability? If you have any recommendations or personal experiences with specific SSD models that you believe excel in these areas, I would greatly appreciate your insights. Additionally, if there are any other factors I should consider that I might have missed, please feel free to share your thoughts.
Thank you in advance for your assistance! I look forward to your recommendations and insights.
