    What vehicle do you drive?

    It was a police scanner. In some states, it would detect if the police shoulder mount repeater was close enough and warn you. Back when I first got it, it would pick up early cell phone conversations before those were digitized lol.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I had totally the same thing years ago, totally (ok it wasn't as fun of a green color :p ) /tease Also check out that peak early 2000s interior. I loved my police scanner and whatever that thing plugged into the OBD connector was called. I STILL get emails from that Tom Tom company. I have...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Almost forgot about that! I did the $100 one just to get in, and as soon as they offered the refund I took it.

    General Gaming News and Discussion

    I specifically rolled on the Mankrik server (pronounced Man Kirk for some) just to make jokes about that quest.

    What are you playing?

    Harry Potter was free, so I played through it. It looked really amazing on the 5090, and I enjoyed it for what it was (though a touch too easy). Some of the characters, villains and people written in just for conversational conflict were WAY too one dimensional (ie Anne's uncle). Good story...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    I know not many played the EQ2 TLEs, but with a good guild the raids were fun. AAs were dumb, as you could get max AA's in like 2 hours. My biggest disappointment there was completing the conjy epic, and having the epic weapon pull from the wrong Spell_# and never got fixed. Was supposed to...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Not just that, but how many TLEs have people played through again just to play through the same 2-3 expansions? So many wasted hours lol /guilty

    Vanguard - I don't give a fuck if it's dead, It's still brown as fuck (Download link in 1st post)

    It was...ok as long as you were camped in one spot and not moving. They had set zone lines, but the zone lines almost never made geographic sense (compared to the obvious zone lines of EQ in most places)

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I turned on the auto-attack clicky for offensive button timings, and to be honest if there was one for defensive parries I would've used that too. By the middle of Act 2 I was over having to learn new parry timings every few minutes, especially when most of them are feints. Blech

    You know you're getting old when.....

    Yep, and those same people asking what the P is in 1440p upload an old family video from VHS, and it looks like this: I fixed ours re-rendering it in Handbrake. I had an entire VHS tape of us skateboarding when we were like 11 from Grandpa's old shoulder mounted VHS camcorder monstrosity...

    Ashes of Creation

    I haven't touched this one, but when I did the same thing with Pantstheon, I enjoyed it for what it was, and didn't mind sending $$$ their way.

    Military Thread

    This is probably accurate. Clamoring for a small amount like that I mean. Look up the Redux retirement in the 80s, members got a 30k(pre tax lol) bonus for giving up hundreds of thousands of $$$ of their pension and cost of living increases. I couldn't believe that they got people to sign...

    I thought I was weird, or that another game distracted me. Glad to read I'm not alone WhyNotBoth.jpg

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    You beat me to it. Back In My Day(tm) girls used to mayyybe get a tiny cute tattoo somewhere. Now they just look like they got pass-out-drunk somewhere and were scribbled on as a joke. I now have Hepatitis A-D looking at that picture.

    Hogwarts Legacy

    Huh, comments are turned off, did nazi that coming! Years ago I didn't care about Trans. Live and let live. But man that slippery slope. Then those mentally ill terminally online people got 'jobs' (lol) as reddit mods, and gaming mod sites. They actually BANNED the guy who fixed the...
