Never understood the rush to get off the plane when you have to stand at the baggage claim for 20 minutes anyway. Just sit there and relax until the aisle starts moving, then head out when there is a spot. Take a nice relaxing stroll through the terminal and then maybe have 10 min or less to...

People actually watched that movie?1? Sin City is what made her a known name.

Can't say I've ever read that "theory" here. Probably because it doesn't hold water, being that team sports have existed for a long time previous to computers and have only gotten more popular. If you wanted to apply that "theory" to team sports, it fits far better as a body that could be made...

Last I read, the story about putting a man in a hole, was actually an oddity recorded in some small area of Europe and not representative of anything widespread. Furthermore, only a nobleman would have been a trained fighter, so trying to compare a trained fighter, half buried against someone...

For medieval fantasy Ciri wouldn't need to be changed all that much to get her more believable (make her taller). The biggest problem I have with it is the lore they have set up does not jive with a women being a Witcher. Retcons are always jarring and will take some getting used to, if you are...

The exploration and main quests were pretty good. In games like this (or GTA/Cyberpunk) I don't get much enjoyment out of the busy work, such as collections, side quests that have very little variety, or "mission" type shit, so I skipped them. Still probably got ~40 hours out of it.

Pretty good finish to the season. Some of it makes me wonder what the real story is and not the entertaining version. For example (last episode spoiler): Also, they put in two "subliminal message" type jokes in the last episode that flash so fast you need to pause it, to even know what it...

Looks like he had mental issues of his own:

It's a rumor, seemingly started from a twitter account (DanielRPK), that all these "media" sites ran with, because that's what they do. It holds about as much water as a Doomcock video. A Threads thread relating to DCU supposed "leaks":

I would guess that if Azmond is actually in talks with Elon or top Twitter people, the interactive chat UI is part of the conversation. At least, if Elon is serious about having X become a top streamer site, which he seems to be.

Liquor stores in Texas are the size of small grocery stores; the two biggest in DFW are Spec's and Goody Goody, for example. While I don't frequent them anymore, 10+ years ago the only non-alcoholic stuff I remember them carrying is beer, wine, and pre-mixed mixers (on lunch breaks I would...

It is, until it ain't. The last season of The Boys certainly didn't fill me with confidence. Characters made non-sensical choices that were pushing what was logical for their character and/or powers from previous seasons. The need to try to top some sexual gore fetish they have by raping Hughie...

If you live in or close to a decent size city/metro you might have one or more places you could take it and buy some planner, jointing, and sanding work. Depending on the size of the item(s), it should be fairly cheap. Things to look for are wood mills or even call a place that sells hardwood...

Someone said it's a mix of Gothic 2 and Morrowind; which sounds good and got me to play. I got 5 - 10 hours in and I can certainly see the Euro jank like Gothic 2, but I'm not sure if it has the choice/consequence or factions of Morrowind/Gothic. It's doesn't have the stupid auto-scaling of the...

Yea, headshots were one of the first things AI got good at. I'm not 100% sure I remember it being AI, but I do vaguely remember there being comments about that picture being off.

I would only rewatch season 1 (and have a few times). I don't necessarily regret watching the other seasons, but they were forgettable and I would need to look them up on Wikipedia to jog my memory on anything more than a vague recollection of the plot and actors. I have zero confidence HBO can...

In season 1 (or was Sheep in season 1, with cows in 2?) they bought heifers for breeding at the AH, then rented a bull to stud. This time

One of the most famous people of the 90s and 2000s. The Labatt’s Blue Zone Girl at 22 years old:

You know who else plays games with a controller? Chris, that's who! Are you a Chris?!?

My impression is that it is more like a spaceship that is traveling on a huge strip of rubber. You can apply the same amount of thrust to achieve 1g (if that's the target), but the closer you get to c, the more stretched out spacetime gets. Meaning the individual experiences the same 1g, but the...

What do you mean there is no speed limit? The speed of light is the speed limit and you can never reach it, even with infinite energy/power. If you use the example of 1g acceleration, after about a year it starts hitting huge diminishing returns. So much so that it would not be worth hauling the...

Simpletons get befuddled by robust vocabularies and spew indignations upon the rabble.

According to this explanation they can (from when the LIGO was about to be turned back on after upgrade, 9 years ago)[timestamped to relevant part]: From the first 2 detections 8 years ago (timestamped to relevant part): Edit: meant to link first video instead of second (thought the second...

LIGO and VIRGO have detected numerous gravitational waves adding more evidence in favor of Einstein's theory?

Possible micro leak that gets pinched off at lower psi levels? I had a micro leak some years ago. Soap didn't show it and the partial submerge trough/tank at the tire shop didn't show it either. So I over inflated it as far as I felt comfortable and tossed it in our pool (hot tub attachment)...

Weird. It's possible that this happens multiple times a year and as security cams are seeing widescale adoption, we just happened to catch two this year. Along with the fact that Memorial Day weekend is a big outdoor grilling holiday, where people are mistreating propane tanks at a much higher rate.

No one died. https://abc7chicago.com/post/truck-explosion-addison-illinois-cleanup-continues-propane-tank-wood-dale-road-lake-street/16541290/

I think it is. The two hardest Pathfinder settings are much harder than the hardest BG3 difficulty on release. Overall I like the turn based tactical combat of the Pathfinder game rules over the DnD5e rules. They are more complex and have more spells/abilities. The Pathfinder game's power curve...

True, although I think core is pretty forgiving? Regardless, easiest solution is to grab the Toybox mod (LINK), as it has the best respec option that I found. Then just respec if things get too messed up. The game also has the option to turn on auto-leveling for companions, which picks a preset...

I clipped it and attached it to my post, you didn't need to go to reddit. As in, you didn't even read my post before replying. I know Zo6s are super common and saying you replaced the heads as soon as you got the cars just reinforces the possibility that they might be a problem that would...

Damned weak willed nerds, it's all your fault! https://www.gamesradar.com/games/dragon-age/dragon-age-maestro-says-ea-always-spoke-about-a-hypothetical-nerd-cave-full-of-die-hard-rpg-fans-who-would-always-show-up-so-you-didnt-have-to-try-and-appeal-to-them/

Did you read the reddit post? It mentions the valve stems but says the engine has a geometry issue that causes damage to the heads and rods, which crop up at high mileage and/or after a lot of hard driving. Replacing the stock with the aftermarket parts (advertised as a fix) just "resets the...

It seems the c6 Zo6 LS7 engine has head and rod problems, so in my opinion the best c6 would be a 2008+ bone stock Grand Sport with low mileage. It might be a great option, if the right deal comes along. I also wouldn't actually buy a car modified by another person but a lot of people are fine...

This 2006 Grand Sport should blow all those from that dealer above out of the water for $28k. Has a super and a bunch of upgrades, which means it was probably abused a bit... but if you want a race car out of the box...

Here is 2014 with 44k miles that just sold for $39k (top trim 3LT with Z51 better brakes and suspension): https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/c7-corvettes-for-sale/4916725-sold-2014-z51-3lt-m7-torch-red.html Looks like Carvana is offering this guy ~$36k at 70k miles (convertible tax), so it...

Yar, Challenger is a 100% about looks. Vette is the winner in performance. While the drag times of a bone stock base model might not have a huge difference, the bendy track times are in different leagues. Depending on where you live, there are bendy tracks all over with public track days at most...

Corvette has the best performance for dollar spent for maybe any full sized sports car currently in production, it's above all of the others in those terms. People, previously in this thread, have stated that Ford is one of the worst manufactures the last 10 to 15 years(?). It sounds like the...

I only flirted with being a console-tard some ages ago, when various roommates and friends were console-tarded (and I could use their systems), now it's PC master race only.

Have yall played Divinity: Original Sin 2? It has very similar multiplayer but it is a lighter game with a more open skill/class system with different mechanics (although you can see how they transferred over as much as possible to BG3). Some people don't like the Dutch humor, but I never found...
