@Jx3 How bound are you to your current location? Do you yearn to travel overseas? I ask this because I have been an expat living abroad for the last ~18 years. During my travels, I always come across a ton of American / Canadian / UK teachers. They too hated the systems where they came from and...

Sounds like a carrier specific deal? I am overseas and don't deal with that contract horseshit from the states, however, all the shops here have the free Gear VR offer with purchase of the S8. In fact, they did the same with the S7 and was never a limited time.

As said, kinda strange to vote Debbie over the real threats. Debbie has 0 chance of winning most immunity challenges, let alone the whole game. I could understand voting her out if she was part of my own alliance, as she is completely spastic and could blow up a plan / your game at any moment...

Do you guys really pay monthly? With USAA, you pay your year up front and it is significantly less. You're basically paying interest on monthly payments. I have seen anywhere from 5-20% discount. If you sell the car or whatever before the year is up, you get refunded the difference. Insurance...

Have to wonder how much those streams are compressed. Those 4k streams are losing so much in the compression, what is the point of it in the first place? True 4k would be an absolute fuckton of data per month in a country that still often has data caps from shitty ISPs. Even with the shitty...

Wranglers are nice in that they are extremely capable off-road without doing a damn thing to them. However, as a daily driver they are horrible. Their ride quality is like a tank and it has a ton of plastics everywhere that squeak and rattle. The cargo space is total shit in the 2 door, so you...

As much as I love 4K, this is the exact reason I haven't made the upgrade yet. Every time I float the idea, I look at the complete lack of any mainstream 4K content. By the time we actually start seeing 4K, the tech will be more mature and prices will be cheaper.

There's also a pretty damn beefy AC aug in one of the raids.

Last two days have been crazy. Dow topped 21k again and Nasdaq broke 6k for the first time ever. Sadly, I have still been sitting in VCSH and missed the boat.

The one thing Subaru has going for it is that it is an AWD system for wintery states in a vehicle that is not only cheap, but very reliable. It's nothing at all exciting, but it is damn good value for what it offers.

Troll is right, that shit has been around for ages. Even when the big US manufacturers tout some new amazing tech, you can bet your ass it has been around in BMW, MB, Audis for years before it already. Lane change warning tech actually came from Japan and is over 15 years old and first came to...

Fuck that, buy a bicycle.

These for my water cooling radiator: Air Series SP120 Quiet Edition High Static Pressure 120mm Fan Twin Pack These for my case: Air Series AF120 Quiet Edition High Airflow 120mm Fan Twin Pack

JFC. Only a half million a year in property taxes! God knows how much it costs in upkeep on something like that.

Named outside of castle drop augs. Named inside castle (except D'vinn) drop loot that is low tier GoD stuff which is equal or worse than Time loot. D'vinn has CBQ quest loot which are mostly all upgrades. Lodestar is the best range slot and 2h weapon in game from him. Overall, the named and...

None of my Galaxy phones have ever had faults, aside from my S4 that I drunkenly took into the ocean.

Not sure this is believable anyway. The whole point of Ep1 was saying his dad owns a chart that shows where these sites are. Main dude just has detailed drawings of said sites. Now, supposedly his dad spent his whole life treasure hunting and wreck salvaging. If you have this map with the...

EarthA gave a ton of problems when Maze (original dev) tried fixing it. After getting frustrated with multiple broken / double spawning scripts, he resolved it by simply making Arbiter a static spawn. But after the server nuked, it rolled back all of Maze's changes. During sirjames ownership of...

While that tech is amazing for the disabled, it is nothing at all what Musk's Neuralink is trying to do. Stuff like that is using tiny muscle movements as inputs to control the bionics. Often times, you are using muscles normally attributed to doing something else to control a dissimilar...

Here, they have this Mushroom Artisanal burger at McDs and honestly, the bun is better, the mushrooms are cooked perfect, the grilled onions are great, the peppery sauce is nice... however, it is all let down from the shit tier use of the standard quarter pounder beef patty. Dry and bland as...

Resources as in how? I remember dumbfucks complaining when Vista came out regarding memory usage, yet completely failing to comprehend pre-fetch at the time. This was still pre-SSD and traditional HD were slow as balls. Microsoft put in pre-fetch where your most commonly used programs would be...

Yea, I have been using wireless charging almost exclusively (except in the car) for the last few generations. It's one of those things that once you use it, you will never go back to wires. Just another of many features that Apple is lacking that competitors have had for years.

I had a built transmission by Boostlogic that was tested on a 9 second car. Install a high stall torque converter and the lag is nowhere near as bad. Boost Logic Supra TT Auto Upgrade Transmission Toyota Supra 93-02

Pretty sure that is going to depend on software. Some will monitor the temps and step up the fan incrementally at set speeds. You likely aren't at a linear increase and it's just bouncing between the two speeds as it is fluctuating in temp. Go into your MB settings and look for fan control. On...

Not familiar with that engine. The point was the 2JZ is legendary for its ability to make insane HP / Tq on stock internals and remaining absolutely bulletproof. You can throw big HP at any engine with forced induction, but reliability is an entirely different thing. When you start messing with...

Stumbled across this myself today. Came here to post it too. Fucking mind blowing. Long read, but you need to do it.

I've got a Land Rover Discovery 4 and carry 0 fluids. I have an ARB compressor, 2x D-shackles, snatch strap, quick deflator, shovel, and jumper cables. Four years of off-roading and dune bashing and never had a problem with it yet, aside from a tiny coolant leak that had a TSB and was fixed...

I agree with everything in your post except this. Cerie knows exactly what she is doing. She knew where the vote was going. During the vote when she put down Sierra's name, she said to the camera "this is to spice things up a bit". She knows Sierra is her biggest strategic opponent at this time...

God damn I love this hippy.

Source? Cause honestly, I have seen hundreds of articles of the "return of the Supra" and random camo'd cars for nearly 2 decades now. None of which have come to any fruition. *Edit* Just did my own search. Fuck that. The Supra was about 100x the car any BMW Z ever was. Toyota need to step...

I just want the Supra resurrected. Best car, by miles, that I ever owned. I don't simply mean a performance car in its name, but what the Supra was truly about. A hyper over-engineered car with an engine / drivetrain that could take double the stock HP with only bolt on mods (turbo, IC, etc)...

That sucks. I haven't had coil whine since my 8800 GTX days.

Yea, if you hear your nVidia graphics card, you have bigger problems. I run like 12+ EQ sessions and a HD movie and I never hear a thing.

For anyone that uses BTN, I just uploaded this. Enjoy.

Stock fans are fine, albeit noisy at full speed. I swapped mine out for fans I could run 100% fulltime for my overclock that ran a lot quieter. If you are not OC'ing, you can simply use the MB software that will run the fans at slower speeds when the CPU is running cool and they shouldn't be an...

Very good point here, but what company manages your employer's 401k plan? Mine is through Fidelity and there are very good low cost Indexed options. Do not get suckered into the "actively managed" funds bullshit. The fees on that are insane and do not seem to do any better than the indexes. I...

Like Attog said, last season someone said Zeke was trans and the first thing I noticed was the scars in a couple scenes where he wore no shirt. I am surprised no one on his previous season asked about them? Perhaps he has a story made up about them? It's hard to believe you go that deep in the...
