The number one thing that detracted from it was the rubberbanding and SB.exe errors every 5 minutes. But after coming back to it like 2 yrs later and playing it for about a year it was pretty fun. The sieges were still a slide show for the most part but beter hardware helped a ton and they fixed...

I grill all the time in the winter. Of course temp varies quite a bit here in the winter, but about as cold I got was in the 25F-30F? range and it was fine but this is on my gas grill. I never tried shit like smoking or indirect heating though, usually slap on some steaks or chicken breasts and...

Btw, anyone know the average cost per mile using average cost of electricity vs gas?

Im sure they will get better but this will always be a problem. But again not for the majority of people that drive less than 50 miles per day which is the majority of peeps.

Nahh just asking how they handle it, is all, like insert credit card here type of thing? hehe.

I have not seen one yet other than the Nissan leaf one we have here at work. But im sure they will come. Also, do you have to pay for the charge at one of those? Im assuming you do, right?

Sure, eventually. Im sure the tech will get better as well. Better cells, better charging solutions too. Im just talking near future, for the early ecar adopters. Also, could our current infrastructure even handle the new found load of powering 200 million vehicles along with what its already...

that is if we have those super charging stations wherever. If not, youre stuck for 6-8 hours at todays tech level. So this could tack some serious time to your commute to grandmas which maybe took 5-6 hours before, now youre taking 2 days to get there.

So yeah, for a regular day to ay driver this is more than adequate. Average commute is 50 miles or less, charge overnight and good to go. A peson like me with a 10 mile commute each way could go for a few weks on one charge. Again the problem arises what happens during that family trip to see...

Im assuming they would have to in order to stay in business. Plus there will always be legacy shops around to handle analog cars for collectors and shit and those refusing to switch for a time. Plus im assuming those autonomous vehicles would still need regular mechanical maintenance as well...

Range is already there, anything at like 200- 300 miles per charge is already at the sweet spot range. But then what do you do for that extended trip for say 400 or 600 miles? Also problem is issues with cold and decreasing battery life.

Shit has been getting more technical as time goes on. The training and education gap is huge from a 1960s or 70s car vs todays electronic/computer controlled beasts. I assume it will only get worse to maintain and service an electric vehicle. I know those battery packs need to be replaced from...

Ok I was wrong, adjusted they basically stayed the same, but definitely not going down, thats for sure...

How do you figure this as car prices have been exponentially getting more expensive?

Sorry bro you feel that way, See Takata, GM ignition, Ford tires in 2000 and others why R&D and testing is paramount to auto safety. I do IPs and we have a test center right on site. Which consists of everything from air bag deployment tests with 5x $100K high speed cameras, to 100s of hours...

Just because you can build a widget for $2, you cannot discount and forget the engineering, R&D and testing and all that other shit that goes along with product development, especially something new from ground up, that got you there bro, whose gonna pay for that?

R&D, engineering, design, testing, tooling, assembly, testing again, all amortized throughout the vehicle line timeframe.

I can see it now, roaming gangs of leet hackers/street pirates all looking up. "Look! LG60 in TV! Lets go!...Got an Xbox S over here!"

although i did not partake in RMT back in the day, just played the game for funs and lolz, I have to imagine that most real cash was made in EC tunnel an the backs of noobs.

Well yeah, the shit is hard to do, if it was easy, everyone would be skinny, lean and sexy. Add to this how food can be a crutch in certain stress situations and a comfort in others, yeah the shit is hard. But it does get easier, it takes time, but it does get easier as time goes on and you...

Yep, and Brad and Co are delusional to think that this will not happen to their game if they just "add more content". In fact, the more content they add, the more content will be camped 24/7. Of course this all hinges on whether this game is popular or not, but make no mistake, even if its a...

The whole problem is every or a vast majority of items will be tradable unlike current gen games which almost everything besides trade goods are boe or bop. So yeah welcome to rmt, its unavoidable in a game like this. Shit even in wow we had rangs farming the only thing they could sell, and that...

And the above posts is why a system like this sucks. Non instanced + economy where you can sell everything = Rang Rangs/a_skeleton_02 camping shit 24/7.

EQ2 sucked, Vanguard was way better although more buggy and less finished.

On reddit they did mention they are well aware of the problems and are looking into how to solve them.

Gets better too, they show some other shit thats like lv 15 or some shit and its definitely cool. All open world too, other than zoning and shit. I dont know dudes, been watching this stream all morning and afternoon when I can and im getting excited about this. Looks pretty fucking good for a...

I agree about instancing was the easy way out, but it worked for the most part. Im not sure non instanced with no lockouts and shit could work today. Too many autists today. I can already see the armies of necro fags camping big boss for those sweet sweet loots to sell. And there is the crux of...

Yeah, this is one thing IMO that they need to revisit. Shit will be monopolized, whether they like it or not. I still liked the way AO did it back in the day, have instanced dungeons that are still social but with soft caps on the amount of people inside. So say, 25 people in instance 1, 2nd...

Meh, ill buy it. Wow and the 100 wow clones since soured me on mmos. Even in the beginning days of WoW, there was something about it that felt sterile compared to EQ. Ive came back to Eq over the years but its just not the same with them trying to wowify it over the years. IMO WOW was the...

Yeah i remember those days. The midnight runs to the store to pick her up some ben and jerrys, the tubs and tubs of peanut butter she consumed along with pickles, fucking tons of pickles. i also remember Some Dunkin Donut apple fritter or some shit i had to constantly get for her.

I do all the shopping myself, because, again, i do all the cooking and meal planning. If my wife went, we would be all eating cheetos, boxed mac n cheese and campbells soups.

Sorry bro, but most people do not have carers that allow them to do this. consider yourself lucky. I would stay home as well if afforded that type of work as im sure most people would as well. But thats not how life plays itself out for most people. I have to actually go to work for my job. So...

Staying at home is a fucking joke past the initial few years that the kiddies are not at school full time. Once they are, its a waste of another worker and salary, unless unemployable, uneducated, and worthless. which lets face it, many women are. We chose that she stay at home during those...

Its called discipline. In other words stop eating other people.

Whats Zen?

Xfx super cooling option.

I had that Q6600 that I bought in some shitty dell that I got a deal on in like 2006/7? Might of even been in 2005, I forget. That fucker worked for like 6-8+ yrs with some video card updates until I finally replaced it with my i5 2500K system I built. In other news just bought my kid a RX480...

Just google it, first one that pops up.

So ive been on a frying kick lately. Fries and shit from fresh cut potatoes. Gets eaten within minutes. Usually fry them once, set aside, then when entire batch is done, fry them again for crispy. So this weekend I had some chicken breast available so I thought Id make some chicken tendies. So...

Well for 35 yrs you deal with robots by yelling stop motor functions at them and it works 100% of the time. So you would be kind of caught off guard by a few that flipped you off when you said that and it idnt work, right? Even that one chick questioned the security leader all the time, why do...
