    What vehicle do you drive?

    Corvettes are the best sports car for the money and it's a fun car to drive. I have kept my C6 bone stock and not had an issue for 80k+ miles. From what I recall, replacing the heads is one of the cheapest mods to do when looking at $/hp ratio. Afaik, the main failure points for hard driven...

    Does your state have a lemon law or something like a 3 day refund requirement that such problems would be covered? Hopefully you didn't have to just eat that shit sandwich.

    DOTA: Dragon's Blood

    Moon Goddess (Mene) in season one and most of two was "dead" (reincarnated as Fymryn the elf). She was killed by the Blood Moon Goddess Selemene (the Evoker's love/baby mama). When we jump to the world remade number 12,172 (or whatever it was) midseason, the Evoker made that world where...

    The question is, why are you in this, to build for retirement or to gamble? If it's to gamble, cash out enough that you get all of your initial investment back, then let the rest ride. If it somehow goes to 0, you lose nothing but gains. If it's building for retirement, set a gains goal and...

    Certainly. I would rather have an overt outside system than an anything inside, if I lived in a high crime area, but some people cant stand looking at such things (especially women). For a low crime area, I am fine with some corner cameras covering the drive way, garage, and front door, in order...

    If you want your security system to blend in more with your house, Interior cameras have a better chance of catching the faces of criminals. To catch faces and have a better chance at license plates, an outdoor only system would need to be more overt, with a few mounted at eye level. Doorbell...

    If you want an impressive grocery store, go to Central Market. They have some of the best produce in town (outside of a fresh farmers market) for about the same price as everywhere else. The rest of the store can get silly expensive (high end grocery). For normal stores, here is the list from...

    The Expanse: A Telltale Series

    I don't play many adventure games, but when I do, they are from Telltale. I like the stories they made in the IPs they used. I guess we will see if this new studio can capture the same good story telling.

    House of the Dragon

    Honestly, they just needed to come out and say that they were changing the origins of House Velaryon to the Summer Isles or Noth, and be done with it. It then fits into the greater lore of the world GRRM set up.

    They usually have a roll back feature, if you want to finish an old game (or is that Stellaris I am thinking of?). It's the same place you switch to the beta build.

    It's packaged for old people, so they can make one or two baked potatoes and not need to muck about picking through the loose ones. It saves the store time at checkout and people don't need to sit and wait for slow movers to pick through a box of them. Families will generally buy a 5lb bag of...

    It wasn't over looked in GoT, it was consistent with the lore of the world. All the blacks were from Essos, not Westeros. In particular, outside of Areo Hotah, they were all from the Summer Islands or Noth. Areo Hotah, the Dorne bodyguard, is the only one I can think of off hand, that was kinda...

    ...and I could see him reporting you to "troll" you; which the mods would then be forced to apply the rules. I'm pretty sure Zapatta just got shawed for showing tits in Politics last week (granted, it wasn't his first offence).

    Pretty much. Still need mods to kill those stupid siege battles and I'll probably wait until at least the Radious mod is updated (in a couple weeks). Unfortunately (for me), it looks like SFO mod will take 6+ months to get to the same level its at in WH2.

    If you are coming from a Mustang and used to that ride, then I doubt a Tacoma is going to ride anything close to that firmness. All my sports cars have had a much harder suspension than any truck I have been in (never been in a truck specify kitted for off road, though). As long as you are...

    Toyota and Nissan are better quality manufacturers than Dodge/Ford/GMC and there is a good chance that a higher percent of the vehicle is made in the US, than a "US" brand. Midsize is Toyota Tacoma and Nissan Frontier.

    Dallas is deep blue with a Soros DA, so no surprise that SMU is still a mask requirement. The LBJ library at UT would probably be the same; the only reason the state house wasn't is because it's state controlled, not Austin controlled. I didn't know there was even anything left to do with the...

    Back when I went many a year ago, I would rate it as the worst major metro in Texas, but they put a bunch of money back into the river walk since then. Also, Corpus Christi is cool, if you want to keep driving (although you have oceans at home...)! I would wager that you can probably find...
