    The fix itself was cheap. The couple hours of labor for diagnostic work were about what you'd expect for a major metro area. Bill came out to just under $400 before taxes. Knowing no fuel was getting to the engine I guess was easy? Figuring out where the problem from gas tank to engine I...

    Amazing what talking to a manager can accomplish. Afterwards, problems were found and ultimately diagnosed. I want to say this is what they were doing all along, but the guy I was talking to originally slurred his words so much that it made me question his intelligence. Also, he sounded...

    How? That's a ridiculous number of new hires for even the largest of corporation, let alone the federal government in the "fuck working" era.

    All things Brandon Sanderson

    Am I missing something here? The books are essentially already written, right? If so, this is less like a kickstarter(help me fund this promising idea) and more like a ransom. It also kinda reminds me of publishers ripping content out of games and then charging for it as DLC. Sanderson...

    They finally got around to reading the diagnostic code(twice!), "engine won't start". I don't think it's the PCS sensors, and turning them off definitely won't help. However, I'm willing to bet they're suffering from a root electrical system problem. Maybe that shit will be covered by the...

    Home Improvement

    None of mine are permanently shaded. A couple of them are near the house, so they are partially shaded. And the other two grow close to a walnut tree. They don't seem worse for it. If anything, my harsh trimming is probably worse on them. Fucking things grow too fast so I try to trim the...

    Fast growing and year-round coverage? I'm not sure you can combine those. Most evergreen bushes aren't fast growers. You might need to plant something now and manage expectations. Forsythias grow pretty damn fast, I usually have to trim mine twice per summer.

    Fair enough point on the sensor itself, but I suspect it's a red herring. We've had issues with it before, and while annoying and flashy, it didn't prevent actual operation of the car. I did ask her to turn the system off and it made no difference. Whether that meant "stop yelling at me when...

    Wife is stranded 6 hours away, so apologies on asking for diagnostic help via second hand information. She was driving the car, Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, when the check engine light came on and the system strongly suggested pulling over. She did so and turned the car off because it was beeping at...

    Hmmm, the mod of that guy's grapsing mail reminded me of something. Does anyone recall why the Stormfire ring was "nerfed" this league? https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Stormfire I wonder if you can do something similar with that mod... Nevermind, I can't read. Still, funny video to share.

    I do not applaud console exclusives. Should I? Honest question, I haven't really given much thought to the positives of restricting customer access to games. There are many games I have not played simply because I'm not interested in buying a console for just a couple games. Or the PC ports...

    So, you decide you don't like their storefront UI, splitting up your library, their underhanded tactics, whatever. As a consumer, what are your choices to react to this other than deciding not to buy any of their products? Otherwise known as a boycott but without the negative connotation.

    I'm not going to say disingenuous, he's upfront about what the build is for. But even still, this feels wrong. Palsteron seems to do this a lot. Look, I made a "build", and then severely restricted its content viability and now it's a Real Build. As for Lightning Warp itself, I'm not sure...

    I'll take a look later tonight. I was hopeful the new amulet and maybe some of the eldritch implicits would bring it back to being a competitive low investment movement skill. Not necessarily an entire build, though nothing wrong with that in itself.

    Yeah, that's what I meant by "that build". Nothing specific to smite or aura stacking. Honestly, I find the grace/iron reflexes/replica dream feather aspect much more compelling than the aforementioned. After most dps flasks got gutted(when's the last time you even considered lion's roar?)...

    Probably one of the best builds for that belt, at least from a dps perspective. Almost 40% more dps from stibnite and basalt each, jade not that far behind. Is there another build that gets that much from its flask slots? You're probably in the hundreds of millions of dps at that point. Might...

    Hearthstone

    It's a river crocolisk that only has more value with other cards. It's a terrible top deck. For an aggro deck, you might not actually run it. I think it has more home in a midrange or combo deck that hasn't really existed for hunter. But, lolconstructed.

    You decided on the 3.16 version from that thread. I've preferred going the right side of the tree for Precise Technique as it's more reliable than EO. I agree that it's not a mapper, but it's a bit frustrating because it's really close to being a mapper. If the build could fit some sort of...

    Having completed their conquest of the graphics engine, consisting of a classic scorched earth policy, they've moved on to fucking the sound engine. I've noticed lots of times where certain categories of sounds just stop playing. Or frequent popping during high combat time. Why play a...

    Still 12M without! I'm fine with checking flasks in this case because that's enough DPS to down a boss before they're up. I'll admit that I copied(without understanding) that from RueToo's LS zerker that converts most if not all phys hits to elemental and then moves armor to protect elemental...

    I can't figure out Tencent. There's definitely documented proof they've ruined games and companies. But they've owned GGG for years now and if anything, Chris has done more damage to the game in the of The Vision than Tencent has. A lot of the typical P2W features that you'd expect for a game...

    Yeah, CaptainLance is a good theorycrafter but does a poor job of managing his costs. One of his ward loop videos starts off with "3-passive voices are only 18ex, so I thought, why not?". And yes, 18ex for 3-passive voices is relatively cheap compared to what they usually cost, but it's still...

    I don't know if anyone in guild has the pockets and playtime for that belt. The few that might would likely go with a HH anyway. Wanted to share a build I've been enjoying the past few weeks. I keep coming back to this one while rolling a couple characters just to try out. It's aura...

    I'm not sure there's a way to do that except via aura stacking your resists(phys and elemental) all to 90%, using CI to be immune to chaos, and replenishing spirit to have good sustain. Melding of the Flesh introduced comparatively cheap ways to get your elemental resists maxed, but solving...
