Topic | Remember when Pokemon GO was a thing? |
Mizznox 08/14/19 1:49:10 PM #34 | s0nicfan posted... Don't forget the time they tried to "relaunch" it in Manhattan and the entire thing was a giant shitshow that they had to shut down. No idea what you're referring to, unless maybe you mean Chicago? --- |
Topic | Is Tool meant to be actively listened to? |
Mizznox 08/07/19 3:37:32 PM #18 | I'd say it's kind of the opposite - they're one of my faves when actually sitting and focusing on the music, but don't think they're a good choice for background noise while doing other things. --- |

Mizznox 08/04/19 11:24:36 PM #22 | _Rinku_ posted... You've been able to buy banana milk at Asian grocery stores for years. There was a Nesquick banana milk in the US in the 90s, I remember liking it more than strawberry. --- |

Mizznox 08/04/19 8:39:45 PM #121 | DrizztLink posted... Getting pretty annoyed at spotting a Rocket stop and having someone beat it in the two minutes it takes to get there. ? It's just expiring (they last 30 minutes), other players fighting it doesn't affect it for you. --- |

Mizznox 08/04/19 4:37:21 PM #118 | 6 wild shiny Ralts during CD, just hatched #7 this morning and have one more Ralts egg left. Finally got to do a Snorlax Rocket battle yesterday, Snorlax itself wasn't too bad but the Poliwrath + Gyarados afterward sure made it a challenge. Unexpected Gyarados at the end of a Dragon battle threw me off, too. --- |
Topic | So why can't Americans get into Soccer again? |
Mizznox 08/01/19 2:29:36 PM #34 | Veggeta_MAX posted... EndOfDiscOne posted...It's been a while since I've watched soccer. Surely it can't be worse than basketball in this regard.Soccer is 100x worst and the NBA actually penalizes players caught flopping since a few years ago. The worst thing about the NBA is probably the allowed traveling and the bickering from fans about not being physical enough. The NBA has been giving like 2 or 3 warnings per year for flopping and hasn't given a fine since 2016. They're not exactly cracking down on it. --- |

Mizznox 07/31/19 1:46:28 PM #98 | So stoked for shiny Rayquaza hunting! Skipping the EX raid today in hopes of getting in two Rayquaza during my lunch break. Curious to see if Synchronoise is going to be a worthwhile move for Gardevoir/Gallade. Either way, this will the first time in a few months that I'll be totally free for one of the 1- or 3-hour events. --- |

Topic | Reminder that Matthew Broderick killed two women |
Mizznox 07/17/19 1:33:56 PM #13 | clearaflagrantj posted... Hairistotle posted...Broderick told police he had no recollection of the crash and did not know why he was in the wrong lane: "I don't remember the day. I don't remember even getting up in the morning. I don't remember making my bed. What I first remember is waking up in the hospital, with a very strange feeling going on in my leg." He was charged with causing death by dangerous driving and faced up to five years in prison, but was later convicted of the lesser charge of careless driving and fined $175. I assume it would have said so if he had been drinking. It sounds more like the concussion from the crash wiped out his memory of that day. Similar thing happened to me when I got a concussion from a snowboarding accident, I have hardly any memory of that morning and apparently the first thing I said to my friend after getting up was, "I don't remember what I had for breakfast." --- |

Topic | Do you drink White Claw hard seltzer? |
Mizznox 07/10/19 2:30:56 PM #30 | Not exactly my first choice, but I prefer them over lite beers when just chilling on the beach or during softball games. Depends on the flavor, too. Couldn't tell you which were White Claw, Truly, or Mike Weinhard, but I thought Mango was the best, berry flavors are fine, Lime and Pineapple weren't good. --- |

Topic | Clippers or Lakers, who wins next year? |
Mizznox 07/08/19 2:16:13 PM #8 | YoshitoKikuchi posted... Hmm, who did the Jazz pick up that would vaunt them to contenders? Trading for Mike Conley and signing Bojan Bodganovic are the big ones. A playmaker who can actually score (love Rubio but this was badly needed) and another sharpshooter will be huge for the offense. Pretty broad consensus that they've elevated to contender status, though I'm keeping my optimism a bit in check. --- |
Topic | Clippers or Lakers, who wins next year? |
Mizznox 07/08/19 2:07:45 PM #3 | Jazz! Bucks and Clippers are probably the top two, but it's looking wide open this year. Not really sold on the Lakers yet - LeBron/AD is great and Cousins is a great pick up if he gets and stays healthy, but the rest of it is pretty meh. Rondo/Bradley/Green/Dudley are more name recognition/reputation than actual positive impact at this point. --- |

Mizznox 07/06/19 2:57:44 PM #39 | Damn_Underscore posted... Kawhi, Westbrook, and PG are in their primes right now. They won't be in 2023-2027. Plus Toronto isn't a very popular destination in the NBA. I can fully understand hesitating to take on $170 million for a soon-to-be 31yo Westbrook. --- |

Mizznox 07/04/19 11:31:11 PM #470 | Back when it was only available in EX raids, it knew Psychic, Focus Blast, Hyper Beam, and Shadow Ball. When it got moved to regular T5 raids back in September, HB and SB were dropped and replaced by Ice Beam, Thunderbolt, and Flamethrower. --- |

Mizznox 06/27/19 8:38:41 PM #414 | DrizztLink posted... Mizznox posted...If you're trying to get photobombed, keep in mind that it will only happen on the first pic of a session so it's best to just take one picture at a time, exit back to the map and re-enter for another picture, rinse and repeat until you get bombed. This will all go quicker if you turn off AR+. So yeah, when you're photobombed you'll see a Pokemon show up in the picture that you took, then when you exit back to the map that Pokemon will spawn next to you. By default it's Smeargle, but June 28 until July 6 (1pm Pacific start/end time) it will be Pikachu wearing a party hat instead. You can only get photobombed once per day aside from events that specifically allow more. --- |

Mizznox 06/27/19 7:30:17 PM #412 | DrizztLink posted... I have no idea how to use the photography thing. Select a Pokemon in your storage and click the camera icon, or select the camera in your item bag and select a Pokemon, and start shooting away. I'm not familiar with the AR+ version of it, if you have that, but as far as I understand you just have to tap wherever you want the Pokemon to be displayed to get it out of its Pokeball. If you're trying to get photobombed, keep in mind that it will only happen on the first pic of a session so it's best to just take one picture at a time, exit back to the map and re-enter for another picture, rinse and repeat until you get bombed.

Whether Giannis or Harden wins, no one's getting "robbed". Both have very strong cases. Predicting Giannis MVP, Luka ROY, Lou Will 6th Man, Siakim MIP, Gobert DPOY, and I get the feeling the voters will go Doc for COY. --- |
Topic | Have you ever been arrested? |
Mizznox 06/24/19 2:26:46 PM #13 | Nope. Pretty much the extent of my dealings with the police are a couple minor traffic tickets and warnings, and them showing up at my apartment once because someone called in a noise complaint that I still don't understand to this day (was home alone quietly watching a movie, couldn't have heard it if I stepped out my room and closed the door, much less from a neighboring apartment - also, it was mid-day on a weekend). --- |

Mizznox 06/24/19 1:45:02 PM #7 | The NBA itself stopped using the term years ago (and I don't recall that having anything to do with racist undertones), but I'm not seeing any source saying they've "banned" teams from using it. --- |
Topic | I picked a terrible time to start playing Pokemon Go. |
Mizznox 06/22/19 7:05:46 PM #380 | Groudon and Kyogre? Absolutely. For the stuff in breakthroughs this month, I wouldn't say Pinap'ing is important. Ho-Oh and Latias aren't useful. Lugia and Latios can be, but mainly only for PVP (which most aren't really into) and soloing Machamp (which can be done just as or more effectively and much more cheaply with Alakazam+Espeon). Latios is also a good Dragon type but outclassed by a few others (though they're all also legendaries or pretty rare). --- |
Topic | Where does Liar, Liar rank among your favorite Jim Carrey movies? |
Mizznox 06/21/19 7:49:25 PM #6 | #2 behind Dumb and Dumber. The Ace Ventura movies behind them. The rest I won't really go out of my way to watch (actually I'd say D&D and LL are the only two I will, but if I'm flipping through channels and come across one of the AV's I'll probably watch), but I liked a handful of them. Liked The Mask as a kid, but trying to watch it again a few years back I thought it was awful. --- |

Mizznox 06/19/19 12:48:18 PM #357 | Machete posted... I did an electabuzz raid yesterday and it was easy. Some other player was there but I didn't see anyone playing so maybe a spoofer? In any case I didn't end up needing more than 1 pokemon to win. I don't get to raid much and I have a "win 5 raids" task for a charge tm and I'm 3/5 on it now. I also got 12 candies which is nice because I haven't powered up my electivire all the way yet. I thought this sounded familiar... Machete posted... I have a "win 3 raid" task that I've been sitting on and apparently electabuzz is a 2 tier raid now (11k, easy peasy). Did one on my way home and apparently there was another player around. I didn't see anyone I could confirm was playing, though people were in the area, including a teenage bipolar girl having a meltdown and getting carted off in an ambulance... Still, I was pleasantly surprised that my ground Rhydon stayed alive throughout the entire battle and I got 12 (pinap) candies for the electabuzz instead of 6, as my evolved one isn't fully powered up. >_> --- |

Mizznox 06/18/19 2:11:28 PM #108 | Giant_Aspirin posted... but i dont think you can expect him to comb through every single file before he hands them over. and, besides, if he did comb through all of it and removed the CP, then he might get dinged for mishandling of evidence or something similar From the court document posted earlier: It is worth noting that if the Jones Defendants had engaged in even minimal due diligence and actually reviewed the materials before production, they would have found the images themselves. So it sounds like there was some expectation that him/his legal team would have reviewed these things first. And yes, trying to hide the CP instead of alerting the authorities about it would also be bad... --- |
Topic | Lawyers: Alex Jones sent child porn to Sandy Hook victims |
Mizznox 06/17/19 3:40:17 PM #11 | CableZL posted... The real question in this regard is did Infowars report said emails to the FBI when they got them or did they just keep them? Court documents stated that the Sandy Hook lawyers had begun reviewing the electronic files that Jones had turned over when they found child pornography in the files. They immediately contacted the FBI. --- |

Need egg and Pokemon storage space to get the eggs, of course. These reward eggs have much more focused pools of possible hatches - the 10km egg in particular is all rare/valuable stuff, and probably your best chance to hatch Riolu: https://thesilphroad.com/science/adventure-sync-egg-hatches-feb/ --- |

Mizznox 06/15/19 3:49:22 PM #328 | SRR Capdown posted... I'm guessing there's a lot of Hoenn/gen 3 about due to the Jirachi special research. It's available at Go Fest, but some of the tasks seem incredibly specific to the event, so I expect they'll be replaced with various catch/evolve etc Hoenn pokemon. Save those Wailmer candies people. Yeah, the worldwide Jirachi quest will be entirely different. Celebi was the same way. These worldwide spawns aren't Hoenn-specific, though, they're just some of the ones featured around the different "biomes" at GO Fest. There are like a dozen non-Hoenn species featured. --- |
