    Home Improvement

    Here's the rest of the detailed items. Some of this is excessive, but overall I think this was a thorough, well done inspection. The roof is pretty steep which is why there isn't much detail up there. It's most likely original and getting replaced by the seller's insurance.

    Yeah, I was pretty impressed with the report. I'll make the details available for you guys, give me a few minutes.

    Home Improvement

    I'm fortunate as I have family in the area, and my cousin has been a license/bonded/insured plumber for over 20 years that branched out into other things recently. I trust him to assess this. We'll probably have to get a neutral contractor to bid out the repair and use that number to work with...

    Home Improvement

    No, no basement. It's concrete slab, and the tub sits on the slab. There isn't access to it, apparently, without pulling it. I don't know if it can be reinstalled. I'm 1,980 miles away from the house at the moment. Home was built in 2003, so it's hard to say.

    Home Improvement

    There appears to be an issue with the bathtub in the master bathroom. It's opposite the shower, so it's not a shower pan leak. It's on the main floor. The home inspector said that once the water got above the jets it was nearly impossible to fill the tub, as it was draining so fast. To be sure...

    Is this the right thread to drop pictures from my home inspection? I am getting a few contractors out to take a look, but I figure you guys can weigh in as well.

    I have an accepted offer on a house in NW Arkansas and I'm talking to lenders today. I have been talking with a guy for a few months now via quicken loans. He told me 'mid 3s' over the phone just now. We'll see what the local lenders say as well.

    Made it out in two days. I have an accepted offer on a house as of last night. Great trip so far! Not so great mpg pulling that trailer out here. Best I saw was 11, worst was 6. $530 in fuel costs.

    Phase 1 of the move happening tomorrow. I'm pulling a trailer load out to put in storage. Meeting with a realtor for 2-4 days looking at houses. I'll pull the trailer back empty to be used again in conjunction with a 26' uhaul truck. I'm going to rent that from Reno instead of anywhere in...

    Here's my first win against the snake boss. It's pretty fun to do multiplayer and help on this one, although more than likely people go hamfist and get in close and die really quick. I had 3 or 4 wins yesterday against her.

    Warhammer Online RIP

    It's real easy. The first time running the patcher takes awhile. I got it all set up on Friday and I've played twice. Having a hard time deciding what I want to play. If I play a bright wizard, we get rolled. If I play my archmage, we win. I don't understand it. I was trying to play IB, too, but...

    Warhammer Online RIP

    Man... I played the hell out of this at release. I leveled up three characters to mid 30s (one to 40) on three different servers, as things died or got incredibly imbalanced. Due to its age it may actually run reasonably well on my laptop. I'll hit you up, @MaseK, if I do.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    What are they talking about? $500 for a game console seems like a no brainer when people are paying $1400 for phones. (iPhone Pro Max 512gb $1449.00) Especially with the aging gaming crowd with increasing disposable income... Not unlike a forum that I frequent...

    Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem

    There was a time when I was the same way that I think many of you are currently. The state of the game doesn't matter so much as the newness, the excitement of release, the unknown things. The overpowered builds, the missing decimal point that lets you just demolish content. Some seek that out...

    The Division 2

    Good news! You can buy the Warlords of New York expansion. It comes with an item that bumps you to level 30. That way you can start right at the previous end game and roll into the expansion. Division 2 Warlords of New York | Ubisoft Store

    The Division 2

    I guess this is the benefit of using high res textures to create environments. Slap Division 1's environment into Division 2. Need that "slap the roof" meme going for this one. Definitely Division 3, if there is one.

    Got a quote back from a big moving company. Full box/pack, 17,000 lbs, 2,000 miles, $15,800. $102k insurance on the trip. That‘s about what I expected. I’ll get the price if I box and see if there’s much difference.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    That's a 2008, the first year of the 200 series. I have a mild lift and a bit undersized tires now. I have everything ready to go to swap over to smaller wheels with more tire, but instead of spending $2k on tires I'm going to use it for my move. These tires will have to last until I'm settled...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Picking it up from the fabricator this weekend! Finally got a front bumper to go with the rear. A few skid plates and I'm pretty much done modding it. Edit: I'm going to use a paint pen to color the parking sensors black!

    Vermintide 2

    I love this game but I hate how they consistently segment the (small) player base on PS4. I actually uninstalled it the other day because of disappointment. I've had Vermintide 1 or 2 installed as long as they have been available on that platform.

    Monster Hunter: World

    I tried to play some last night on PS4 but a 38GB update put an end to those plans. It's not the download that takes so long, it's the diff that happens once you have it downloaded. The diff takes like 5x longer than the download...

    Thanks, I did get a quote from Penske. It's actually more expensive than uhaul, but I'll take the truck quality into consideration. I didn't get a quote from Reno to AR, as I'm sure that's cheaper, but I may do that when the time comes. Originally I planned to fly out over spring break to take...

    Thanks. Fun with numbers. I'm about 2h15m from Reno. UHaul numbers... I'm looking at both a truck and a trailer, but I'm looking at both because I'm considering taking a trailer load of items out over spring break and putting them in storage. One way trailer from CA to AR: $1,050. Reno: $924...

    I'm more worried about the logistics of the move than finding a place. I'm keeping my remote work jobs so there is no salary hit at all. It's just straight California costs of living to Arkansas costs of living. I'm trying to estimate the move cost, but I think I'll have to call a few companies...

    Yep, all over it. Realtor seems to be the one that's used the most in the area I'm looking at, but I also have daily Zillow alerts. The amount of new construction is incredible, so that dominates the report.

    Horizon: Zero Dawn

    The best way I have found to get to aiming and shooting on a console are GTA games. Fire up GTA5 on PS4 and you should be at least comfortable with it by the end. It has just the right amount of auto aim where you can play the game without being too penalized for being retarded.
