Ray's on the river menu prices

My memory is, naturally, pretty blurry but I’ll try my best to describe this game. I have no idea if this game is super niche or something but I’m assuming it was relatively popular. I played this game around 2014-2016(??). It was a mobile game on the Apple App Store and it was a 3D kid’s sandbox-like game with graphics similar to those from the developer “Coco Play” on the App Store. The game was a game where you had the opportunity to take care of the main character, a teen-looking girl. I don’t remember the point of the game being to take care of her and I think it was actually just some game where you can “bond” with her. I’m explaining this really creepily but I promise it was a pretty normal game. The game consisted of the following mechanics: -Push her on the swing -Go to her closet and change her appearance -Let her dance -Give her food (the ones I remember were strawberries and I believe a pepper of sorts that makes her have fire coming out of her mouth when you feed her) Unless I just really fucking liked playing in her bedroom, I believe the mechanics with food and dancing things were mainly in the bedroom. She’d be in the bedroom and you got a menu to choose how to interact. Anyway, obviously the game is definitely more complex, I vaguely remember something about gardening and bathing but I’m pretty unsure. I’d love to hear all suggestions and if you can’t find it on the App Store, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was deleted

Hi. My wife and I are in the very early stages of looking into doing the week of Christmas 2024 at Disney to possibly New Years as next years Christmas for our kids (and us too 😊😊). I know it’s too far out to book but I did a mock “booking” through the Disney World Vacation Packages on their site today, usin this years Christmas week as a basis to see what kind of price we were looking at. I knew it would be more expensive cause it’s Christmas and I’m sure next year will be more cause I’m sure prices will rise again. Doing 6 nights with 4 days of single park entry tickets was a bit higher than we were expecting and looking at budget wise. I see all these tik toks of “agents” who claim to get families better deals. Is that legit something that is beneficial or is the same price if we booked it ourselves? I’m legitimately curious to just how much you can save letting them do it. Our first trip last October we did everything ourself and was ok with the price. I got a family of 5 that would be traveling. I’ve always wondered if these people actually get a bigger, cheaper deal or they just lie for clout and views. Any input would be appreciated.

Thank you Reddit

First time purchase and I am considering purchasing a condo in College Park, Georgia. Im a single mid 30's person with a cat so a condo seems fitting for my lifestyle. These condos are part of a preschool (built in 1947) conversion project that developing an artist community. I work in education and I am an artist so I feel this is a good place for me. The preschool being converted is attached to a church that is now full of art studios and are occupied with artists currently. There are other projects like this across the US so i know this isn't just some hair-brained idea.
Here is a link to the project: https://ioncollegepark.community/
Some details:
$156k purchase price, I would putting down around 65k for a deposit. Im not in underwriting, but I do have earnest money (1%) in is already, I understand I would loose this if I walk away.
~550 Sq.ft, basically a rectangle. All brand new kitchen appliances (except a combo washer dryer), tile backsplash, quartz countertops ,all new bathroom (sink, toilet, shower). Building has all new pluming, electrical, HVAC Ductwork, ect). Ive read over all the paper work, building has been inspected by a registered architect and building is in adequate condition for its age. There are plans for reoccurring maintenance schedules for exterior of the building.
HOA: ~$300 month (Covers HVAC, Water, Community fees, trash, sewage). I would only pay for electric and Internet.
The units are almost ready to move in and Ive seen the model unit and they look nice!
My concerns:
#1. The windows in the building are old (not sure if original) but are definitely single pane windows. All the glass is being replaced and resealed. Since there is no HOA reps, I could potentially be part of the board and help direct the HOA to maybe replace these down the line. I dont have any health issues so I dont feel like these single pane windows would be an issue.
#2. The unit I'm interested in is a top floor, corner unit (three windows yay). They have confirmed the ceiling does not have insulation installed, even though they have installed drywall/new HVAC systems. I've asked them to get a quote and see if we can roll it into the total purchase price. This seems like a weird thing to not do since any walls they added they also put in insulation according to the purchase agreement. The builder has already given me a quote for blow in insulation but hasn't confirmed if he can roll it into the purchase price since my unit is an 'affordable unit' compared to the other units. The fact he is working to see if we can make it work makes me feel good about this.
My family is helping with the down payment so I have to consider their input on all this. They seem confused and concerned about this 'art community', but they are late 60s/early 70's boomer who bought a standard house for 50k in 1994. There is a bit of co-dependency in my family dynamic so their worries become my anxieties so Im turning to strangers on the internet for help/validation.
Does this seem like a decent deal given the current real estate market? I am a first time buyer so I am just trying my best to consider everything.
I feel like I have given all the necessary details, feel free to ask me anything.
Thanks

I've been working on getting the best picture out of my BenQ TH671ST as I can and one menu I came across was "Color Management" which lets me adjust the hue, saturation, and gain of the 6 colors (RGBCMY).
My only issue is I have no idea how to properly adjust these and there's no one around who I can have do it, so I need to figure it out myself
Is there some sort of online website with a chart or something like that which can be used as a guide?
Thanks

The Chopped Menu is a resource sharing what secret ingredients are featured on episodes of Chopped, as well as judges and chefs, currently up to S1E7.
Over the years, I've often found that when I want to watch Chopped, I want to see a particular ingredient -- especially one I'm currently eating. It's exciting to make something new and watch as competitors also try their hand at it! Unfortunately, I've never found a list of all the ingredients compiled anywhere, so after years of talking about it, I'm working on building it.
Obviously, I'm just a person doing my best, so there might be some mistakes here and there. I try to use general terms that might help the average viewer find things better -- like "grapes" instead of "red seedless grapes." Those slight changes are just to make ingredients easier to find which is the whole goal of this project.
This began as a Tumblr, which is linked here and within this post collection. The Tumblr is able to be a little more organized and easily searchable by nature of being a blog and not a forum, but overall, both this subreddit and the Tumblr share the same information, just presented differently.

Location right side of head.
Any existing relevant medical issues. Nothing yet. Beside and x ray for my neck pains showed neck spasms. I have been recommended and have referal. To se neurologist. Convince parent is hard though.
Current medications
I don’t know what cause my head pain. But over the past two month I have been feeling this weirds squeezing pain on the right side of my head. Near temple area. It in’t really painful like the head pains I get. Feel weird. The closest I can describe it to is like a squeezing pain on your vein. On my other posts of mine I have described my head pains.
Here is a description from one of my older posts: I started a log to track the amount of migraine or whatever pain this is and the last day of logging will be tomorrow. I have had 19 days of migraines in January. Then past months have been averaging 14 to 15. These pains started in the summer of 2021 and got a lot worse by may 2022. My mom took me to see a physical therapist cause she was convinced it was just neck pain and posture and the x ray showed that I have neck spasms. I did 2 months of physical therapy and went back and extra two weeks In hopes it would get better but it hasn’t only worse. I have worked on my posture and made an effort the past month to consistently do excerise and take all my vitamins. I did physical therapy October and November and a little bit of December in 2022. In the summer of 2022 I made an appointment myself with a nurse at my campus and she did tests and after me following her recommendations and not improving she gave a referral to get a scan at a neurologist which ended up getting thrown away. The physical therapist said if the pain doesn’t improve I need to make follow up appointment and get mri. That never got made. I finally took it into my own hands and got an appointment at cleavland clinic with a neurologist in December and my mom decided to not take me. I have tried different over the counter medicines which don’t work. I switch between advil liquid gels and excedrin. My family recently got sick with Covid and I am sick also but I haven’t done a test yet so that doesn’t help me either. I had a call with my physician and she told me to try migrelief and it gave me bad side effects and only made it worse. I tried this cefaly and it also made it worse. This pain is around the base of my skull, neck, ear, also where the varix of the angular vein is. And I get random pain on other parts of my skull and face. I have been really trying to improve my self care of taking vitamins daily; having water, exercise, eat healthy enough, sleep in a bit more. I started chiro two weeks ago. First appointment went well second did not.
I really need advice on the squeezing pain but also the main head pain. Anyone experience this? I will try anything at this point. Any ideas?

The lack of themes is the first and go to example. Instead of being able to have the background you like and the music you want it's dependant on whatever you hover on. The images are rarely appealing and the music can be dreadful to listen to or pleasant depending on the game, it baffles me themes are still not available.
The menu is just so much more unecessarily confusing than it was previously. On 4 you have games below, everything else above. Sure it's more visually pleasing on the eyes on the 5 but the endless drop down menus leads to it taking forever to wrap your head around the 5's menu.
The bizarre decision to change so that unlike the 4, which would just stop you in your tracks if you tried to message someone with their messages off, the 5 lets you type out whatever you want and then stops you. I've yet to encounter a reason for this change outside of wasting someone's time.

Hey guys im in the market to buy an FG F6, can't really justify spending more than 50k and id like to get the best possible example for my application, have also noticed they aren't really moving on Facebook/carsales (cars being for sale for months and months on end). Anyone a bit cluey on what a fair price estimate would be?

A TOUCHING and funny play about 20-somethings graduating into a world that’s sold them down the river has its Australian premiere at Harbour Theatre this June.
Written by Ella Hickson and directed by Ellis R. Kinnear, Precious Little Talent follows law graduate Joey who is £20,000 in debt and has just lost her job as a waitress.
Shunned by the world and rejected by her estranged father George, she travels from the UK to New York and finds herself falling in love with idealistic young American Sam – but she doesn’t realise her new flame works for her father as a caregiver.
“Precious Little Talent is an exploration of human connections being forged and re-forged by three people who can’t communicate effectively to save their lives,” Ellis said.
“It’s an exploration of love and loss and feeling like the world’s trying to trip you at every turn.”
The main challenge, according to Ellis, is the fact the play uses a more intimate setting and characters.
“I’m used to plays that expand over many different characters, many years and many different settings,” he said.
“This play sticks with three characters over the course of 24 hours from Christmas Eve to Christmas night.
“I’ve found it enjoyable because I’m a lover of character first and foremost and the ability to really dig into who Joey, George and Sam are, and what makes them tick, is incredible.”
Involved in theatre for the past 14 years, Ellis started treading the broads while at high school and has most recently appeared in Cosi and Masquerade at Curtin University and Romeo and Juliet and Richard III with the Graduate Dramatic Society.
Last year, he directed Radium Girls at the Old Mill Theatre, scoring him a best newcomer award at the annual Finley Awards where the play was also named in the top 10 productions of the year.
“The main appeal of directing Precious Little Talent was the character of Joey,” Ellis said.
“She’s gone through the education system, done what the world told her and has landed flat on her face with nowhere to go and no idea what to do.
“Joey now finds herself working in places that don’t fit her life and ideals and is in constant fear she’ll be forgotten.
“I found this incredibly relatable – I think we’ve all been Joey at some point, stuck at a crossroads with no guiding light to point the way out and I really felt a call to bring this character to life.”
Precious Little Talent plays at 7.30pm June 9, 10, 14, 16, 17, 21, 23 and 24 with 2pm matinees June 11, 18 and 25. Tickets are $25.50, $23.50 concession and $20.50 students – book at www.TAZTix.com.au or call TAZTix on 9255 3336.
Harbour Theatre is located at 16 Lochee Street, Mosman Park.

I recently bought an iiRcade back when the "limited time" Retromania sale started. I have spent some time with it and looked around online and these are my thoughts on it. I understand there are fan boys who are going to be upset based on other comments I have made and replies I received but I am not a fan boy of any particular home arcade. This is just my opinion.
Strengths:

• Build Quality - The build quality of this system is great to me. It's not perfect but it's much better than A1UP. Could be a little more sturdy and have better controls.
• Game Library - The ability to pick from a large selection of games and maintain multiple games on one system with no modding needed is a huge advantage. With the new A1UP softmods this advantage is less than it used to be but if they can get some top tier titles it would be a huge plus for them.
• Ease of Assembly - Putting this thing together was fast and easy. Compared to A1UP it's no contest. I had no frustration or moments of panic when assembling this at all. The instructions were clear and concise and the steps were simple. This is one of the biggest pluses to me.
• Height - I feel like this cabinet is a great height right out of the box.

Weaknesses:

• Looks - I personally do like the art on this cab, my wife doesn't. But obviously the shape is something many people don't find attractive and the lack of a marquee is just bad. The new Gold cabinets look great but they also cost a pretty penny. The marquees and artwork on the A1UPs are generally better than these.
• Licensing - Obviously this is one they need to get a handle on. They really need to work on securing licenses from Capcom and Konami as well as some of the older games. When I think of arcade games these are what I think of and these are what many of my cohorts think of. Getting these licenses would give much more mass appeal to this cabinet.
• Community - There are some dedicated people but they are the few and the loud. Very little quality Youtube content. Very little conversation on reddit. This product has a small group of owners. Many are happy with their purchase but it is likely not enough to keep the company afloat long term.
• Support - I had an issue where the Retromania character was moving all by himself when the game started running in one or two directions. I was able to fix this on their recommendation of moving the 2P joystick in the direction he was running but I will note this line from them "RetroMania shouldn't have that issue in the latest version but if it occurs, the way to resolve it would be to press the right joystick in the direction the player is going as well once then it would work normally." Ok well it does have that issue. Saying something like it shouldn't have that issue is just ignoring that it does have that issue and it needs to be fixed.

Company Health:

• Stock - They are out of stock on all of their gold cabinets and most of their regular cabinets besides Retromania. Those are all potential missed sales. There would only be a few reasons for this. 1) There isn't enough demand to support another production run. 2) Their lead times are big and their planning is bad and they don't know how many to tell their manufacturer to produce. 3) They don't have enough cash to afford the raw materials and/or production. No matter what the reason is, a healthy company can deliver all of their product lines to meet customer demand. So either they are already doing that and demand is so bad they don't need to make more or they are not healthy enough to supply the demand.
• Funding - Looking at the LinkedIn page for the CEO of the company his name on LinkedIn is "Jong Shin - RAISING SERIES-A" Series-A funding is funding for a start up that is still trying to gain market share. According to Crunchbase they announced a Series-A round in late 2020 and in Mid-2021. I feel like having the "Raising Series-A" in his name really smacks of desperation as LinkedIn is nowhere near the first source of finding investors when you have a profitable business and a good business plan. I would guess cash doesn't look good for these guys. Going back to the last point I think they are burning a lot as many start ups do but not proving enough profitability and demand to attract further investors. With demand for home arcades falling after the lockdowns were lifted and people returned to their regular lives it is inevitable that some participants will be squeezed out of the market and iiRcade is looking like one of the first to go. As I stated I purchased my machine during the Retromania sale that was supposed to end May 7th. The sale is still going on, all of the signage still says May 7th. To me this says one of a few things. 1) They need cash so they are having a fire sale to generate revenue by lowering the price and increasing the quantity demanded or 2) They have no staff to end the sale and change the signage.

So this is how I see it. Earlier someone told me "People say they are dying every year, yet more keeps coming. Give it a rest." when I mentioned it seemed like they were dying. If people really are saying that every year there is probably something to it. The lack of community and content I think is the biggest telltale sign on the consumer side. The apparent desperation to raise cash is the biggest telltale sign on the company's side. It's hard for me to say what the solve is without seeing their financials and since they are private that isn't possible. I have no clue what their margins are on each product so I couldn't opine how to fix. But it does seem like Arcade1UP has built a much stronger community and a lot more demand for their products that are in many ways inferior. Some of that is the first mover advantage they had during the lockdowns really dialing in on that demand for things to do in your home, but some is just a product that the market likes more. I think iiRcade really needs to decide what their core value proposition is and figure out how that connects with the market demand. Based on the current state of things I would say sooner is better than later on that.

I am considering whether to delay getting surgery in order to progress in my career and would appreciate any input.
For some context, I tore my right hip labrum over 5 years ago doing back squats. Felt it the instant it happened. At the time, I was in flight school for the military and didn’t want to go to medical in fear of being dropped from the program (NAMI doesn’t play around and will drop students for a lot of things).
I finally got my first hip MRI (with contrast) three years ago and the report stated no tear. Fast forward another year and a half and I’m doing a second MRI (without contrast) with a new doctor, and this one also states there’s no tear. Another year goes by and I’m in agony and see a different doctor, who tells me he sees a tear in the first MRI, orders a new one, and it’s finally confirmed that my labrum is torn, and has been this whole time.
He did an X-ray to confirm there’s no arthritis, and told me its not a good idea to delay getting surgery. I’m about to deploy again in about 4 months and am participating in an exercise next month that will have a lot of good training value prior to deploying. It would essentially be career suicide to get the surgery and miss this upcoming exercise and deployment (I’m due for orders after I get back and I’d like to progress as far as possible in the pilot syllabus while I can).
I also have cam deformity in both hips and impingement in the one that isn’t completely torn. Doc told me that the other one will most likely tear over time, and he can operate on left hip to fix the cam deformity as soon as I’m able to walk without crutches after they operate on my right hip (so 2 surgeries within about a month of each other).
So my question is this: should I get my labrum fixed now and alter my career path? Or wait about 10 more months and get both hips fixed? I’m ultimately concerned of having to get a hip replacement early in life or developing arthritis prior to the surgery and becoming contraindicated since it will be over 6 years since tearing it if I wait.
Apologies for the post being so long. Any input will be greatly appreciated and thanks for your time.

Impact wrestling has been on a roll over the recent months. It's sad that they don't get the crowd or audience, but the story telling and matches have been excellent.
Every match of the event was good and no words for the main event. Two lesser known starts giving it their all in the ring and maclin is a made man after this match.
To top it all off, the bully ray segment was just a perfect ending to the show.

If you're someone that says this, and are not offering TO MAKE a computer for whoever you're saying it to, then shut the fuck up.
I've seen so many posts on here asking if a prebuild is worth the price, and inevitably there's always someone in the comments saying the person can make something better for the same price. Literally ANYONE who knows ANYTHING about computers knows something that's prebuilt is more expensive than it's parts. Part of the price is the cost of it BEING prebuilt.
I'm not sure if it's a superiority complex or whatever, just don't give feedback that has no relevancy.

“How is he?” “He’s fine 😆”
Im sorry. I made him lie to you… so you’d continue to stay away…
From tears that cascade, a river of pain, To drowning sorrows in the bottle's disdain, This journey I tread, trapped in despair, Finding solace solely in the numbing snare.
The weight of grief, an unbearable load, Crushing my spirit, eroding the road, But in the depths of darkness, solace eludes, Leaving me grasping for solace, a life subdued.
Alcohol, a seductive and treacherous friend, A false refuge on which I depend, It whispers false promises, masks the pain, Yet deep down, I know, there's nothing to gain.
Each drop consumed, a poison of despair, Dulling my senses, trapping me in its snare, For in this endless cycle, solace dies, Leaving me shattered, consumed by lies.
As the days bleed into nights, a void persists, Aching heart, longing for someone to resist, But the bottle's embrace offers no solace true, Only hollow illusions that further subdue.
Let me not be consumed by this grim demise, Lost in the bottle's grip, where hope slowly dies, For true solace, elusive though it may be, Lies beyond the bottle, in setting my spirit free.
Yet in this dark realm, hope fades away, Leaving me alone, trapped in this decay, As the bottle becomes my sole companion, I surrender to the depths, forsaking all abandon.
May the tears continue, a torrent of sorrow, Binding me to the bottle, no hope for tomorrow, For in this bleak existence, solace is lost, And I am but a vessel, drowning in the cost.

Hello Everyone, I am planning to buy used XV, 2013-2018 probably. But the reviews are not good on internet. Need some advice, should I buy or not? or any other small Suv you guys can suggest in the same price range. Thank you
