    Yea, if you have the auto lock feature on, then it would be rather difficult for some kids to fuck with it, and I wouldn't suspect anyone else of doing some stupid shit like pouring sugar in it. You can usually(?) find recalls by searching google with year/make/model "recall" and maybe add the...

    That's rough, as it's hard to really verify anything once it's in the shop. I don't know enough about fuel to say what "sugar like substance" can mean, other than someone directly putting sugar in your fuel tank, and how long ago that could have happened. Like, could someone pour some sugar...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I assume that all the romance shit in this game was written by women or effeminate gays (or maybe there are no rules for who hits on who, for the gays). Since straight men hardly ever get hit on, they don't have the experience of "aggressive" or "horny" men/women coming on strong, and that's why...

    Ah, yea, that sucks and surprised it isn't fixed. I've done the minor illusion trick the last 3 times I went through that area, and never went into turn based, maybe that bug, on the first playthrough is why.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I don't understand what the issue is? Even on reload, it wont let you leave turn based, or every time you enter combat, one of the deactivated turrets gets put into combat with you, no matter where in Underdark you are? Also, why are you even in turn based to begin with? Just use Minor Illusion...

    Can't read Nederlander, but this is what they said in comments: Dutch dude was trying to steal a bottle of alcohol; which somehow turns into him holding the neck of a broken bottle to use as a shank. Then he meets the security guard (?), Bullet Tooth Tony here, as he is walking out...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I don't know about the auto industry, but the oil industry down here had/has a drafter employment path that doesn't need a degree. It sounded like they do almost everything an engineer with a degree does. The engineers still look over and sign off on it, I think. Dude I knew in high school went...

    Toyota is the premo truck brand that commands premo truck prices. From my very small sample size of driving a 2010ish Tundra VS 2018ish F150, that rep is well deserved (also driven a handful of older trucks from Chevy/Ford that were all worse than the Tundra). @Big Phoenix: Dealers are going...

    People like to complain about the amount of changes that EU4 and Stelaris have gone through over the years, but it is really the thing that keeps me coming back to them.

    There are people using borescopes and teardowns to show what these additives do. Now whether the visual differences actually help the engine run better, can be debatable.

    The "tune up" is usually the colloquial name for replacing plugs and wires, along with the rest of the service recommendations that come along with that. Which is different than getting your car "tuned" on a dyno, which changes the computer programing for timing, fuel/O2 mix, and some other...

    World of Warcraft: Season of Discovery

    I had changed it to two weeks instead of one, right off the bat, so it switched hunters and rogues when I looked at "all" VS. 80 percentile. Regardless, "all" usually has a good deal of difference to top parces on retail and I would imagine the skill gap will get bigger with the higher levels...

    Even that can change, depending on how you use the tool. "All" parses are kinda meaningless when you are counting a bunch of scrubs that can't play their class. I used to use 85% or better, on retail, when looking at log ratings:

    I assumed it was like the first Batman Arkham games (played the first 2), which I liked well enough for the story, the classic characters, and the stealth gameplay.

    Are they a good studio? All I see is PlayStation exclusive bullshit and after getting a computer, I rarely touched a console again (outside of 1000+ hours of Goldeneye with friends). Also, tried to skim through the Wolverine vertical slice game footage (it added 100 downloads in ~10 minutes):

    That's the schtick of HC WoW, and why a bunch of streamers are doing it. People tune in to watch them lose the whole character. I watched a couple of the bosses Rav did, and the world buffs make it trivial. Barron got off 3 Living bombs before he died and the 3 people all ran it out fine. If...

    Yea, the the second game is the best game atm. It's also one of my highest /played time on Steam.
