I actually bought a model very similar to this, but smoked it in about 5 minutes use. I live in a 220V country and had hooked it up to a transformer to step down to 110V, but transformers do not change the 50Hz frequency which will inevitably kill AC motors quickly. Hence, why I asked for a...

I guess in a similar topic, can anyone recommend a good sharpener? Preferably non-electric. I have a Henckel set that I bought ~9 years ago and are definitely overdue for a sharpening.

Source website there is absolutely unheard of to me. The author is: Absolutely loves his Ford Fiesta? His Land Rover experience: He bought a used and destroyed engine and uses that as his own personal reliability experience??? Credibility much? I know the point you are making...

From your own link: The Article is ranking There's a myriad of reasons people can be dissatisfied from a service perspective. Also from your link: I know my own experience would be considered anecdotal. However, as I said.. the LR forum seems to report the same experiences as myself. Sure...

Simply not true of the last 8 or so years. I have a 2013 LR4 (Discovery 4) that will hit 5 years old in a couple weeks. The thing has been absolutely trouble free, aside from a leaky water pump which had a TSB out on it and was replaced under warranty. I am a regular member of the forums and all...

Evoke is an underpowered 4cyl. (If power is any concern of you) It's also designed in 2011 and had a very minor update in 2013 focusing mostly on convenience features and a new transmission. The design is quite long in the tooth now and overdue for an overhaul. No idea about Volvos.

Might sound silly, but is one of your keyboard keys sticking? Esc key or the like.

Connecting to BTN over a VPN is usually an instant account ban.

Tried firing this up for a nostalgia run. Created a new Enchanter and gave up fairly early. I fucked up and didn't research the class choice. The tweaks to the server don't really favor the Enchanter class whatsoever and in fact, make it a very poor choice. The server charm slot item boosts...

SoE's response to the ability bloat was always along the lines of continue to damn the game into mediocrity in fear the current playerbase revolted. It had a hell of a lot of potential and some aspects were really exciting. They screwed the pooch bigtime by not addressing the glaring problems.

Might have the itch, but was any of the Luclin+ tuning addressed? Seems the 4 box hit its limits pretty early on, judging by the posts.

It's really not difficult at all to use. Just watch a YouTube video or two and you should be set. Be mindful of the fill line (not above the safety valve) and do not tamp the grounds like an espresso machine. I just lightly tap the grounds with a spoon to even it out. Do not press. That "2 cup"...

Still happy with my Moka pot. Dirt cheap and 90% there for an actual espresso in terms of flavor. Absolute bargain, compared to a machine. https://www.amazon.com/Bialetti-06835-Brikka-Stovetop-Espresso/dp/B008G48DW4

Seems like a ton of $ for a low performance desktop. $1k plus you need to buy memory and SSD? That's absurd when you start pricing out desktop equivalents. My HTPC uses an Intel NUC from a few generations back. I love it. I just think they have lost their mind on the pricing of this new generation.

Drives me crazy too. Let me know if you find a setting to change that format.

The bigger picture here is Brad was slammed when the Kickstarter project launched and he was criticized for many aspects of it, one of which was the rewards tiers. Here we are years later and they still can't grasp this basic concept. So many of you keep saying "Give Brad a chance!" .. yet, we...

These fucking inventors still haven't learned from their Kickstarter rewards tier debacles. Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen - Get Involved The difference the $3000 package gives you over the $1000 package is literally +6 months more subscription and a "Limited Edition Framed Print". Not like...

JFC... who thought this trans-LARPer photo would be a great idea for their talent recruitment page? *picard*

Unfortunately, I came across MMM / and Reddit FI late in the game. That said, I did bank considerable bucks over the years. My 401k doesn't really need any further contributions and I can retire comfortably at 60. Plus I have another nice stack of cash for house / whatever put away on top of...

After reading @Tenks post, I blew through a load of articles about programming & age. Pretty disappointing to read, honestly. Software Developers Are Terrified Of What Happens When They Hit 30 Silicon Valley's obsession with youth, summed up in one chart Don't think I want to pivot in that...

FoH pals. Need some real advice. I have 15 years with General Dynamics, IT in an extremely niche field of secure voice communications for the government. Contract work with an SCI clearance. This is so niche that there's about two dozen sites in the entire world. On top of that, this work is on...

done! Thanks!

Hasn't it been rumored the S9 is coming a little early? As in February? I have a shattered glass front screen on my Note 8. Slipped out of my hand a week after purchase. Still can't find replacement screens around here. Once it's fixed, it will be the first case I have ever put on a phone...

These still bare fisted monks topping parses? Or do they need Vulak weaps? (I don't play here)

Definitely a solid class come Luclin for encounters requiring offtanks. Grab that gear rot while you can!

Found an older pic of my Land Rover LR4 (Discovery 4). Absolutely love this truck. It's a 2013 model, which is the last year they put the 5.0L V8 in it. (375hp / 375tq). LR seems to get a bad rep about reliability, but mine has been absolutely flawless. I had one issue with a leaky water pump...

Brunch here is all about the booze. It's a weekend thing and you get a bunch of your friends together and have all you can eat and drink (alcohol included) 5 star hotel quality food. Hell, the St. Regis here has a Gordon Ramsay restaurant included in it. Brunch is all about the unlimited booze...

It was quite rare to have in Velious, as it was open contested and guilds ran with far larger numbers. Faction was also a major hassle if you raided NToV.

Been said a million times this game had such potential. Squandered in the worst way possible. Dungeons like Nek Castle and especially Unrest were well done. Great ambiance, clever and unique scripting (Unrest).. just plain fun zones.

I had one on my monk on Ragefire. It's not just the range that is baller. You can pull from miles away at a relatively quick cast. time. I also remember it worked sort of like a "smart debuff", as in it would only strip beneficial spells from the mob and no detrimentals. Smart dispel could be a...

Except they have wireless adaptive fast chargers too. The first gen wireless was truly slow, but they are pretty damn quick these days. Fast Charge Wireless Charging Stand Mobile Accessories - EP-NG930TBUGUS | Samsung US

Article I was reading said a new standard isn't needed. This vulnerability can be fixed via software / firmware patching. Shouldn't be a big deal as long as you update. Microsoft fixed the Wi-Fi WPA2 vulnerability in Windows a week ago Here's every patch for KRACK Wi-Fi vulnerability available...

Toasted PBJs are legit. You are really missing out if you haven't tried it. Lightly toast your bread, then add your PB&J. The peanut butter goes all gooey and delicious when warm. Give it a shot!

Anyone living abroad uses the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion, which is currently around $101k. Anything you make up to that point, you pay 0 taxes. Then there is also the Housing Exclusion, which is another ~$20k (location dependent). Another fun fact: the USA is one of the only 1st world...

Ok, ^^ THAT ^^ is funny! I went hard on my MQ2 6 box team. I managed to get Monk, Shm, Wiz, Enchanter, Mage, and Clr epics done before quitting in Velious. Shackle on Monk as well as the Shm Cudgel. Thinking back, I should have cashed out the monk. He had PoSky quest belt, Vulak headband and...

I've no clue wtf happened. We would kill fake Tunare in the tree and real one would pop and moments later another fake would spawn. Never happened before or since. Just a weird bug. GM nuked the entire zone of mobs once they got word what was happening. We were surprised it went on for so long...
