The combat is just generally unintuitive. Which early in the game is frustrating. And if you’re like me and spend weeks between sessions you can forget all the timing and buttons you need to press.

If the combat is frustrating, turn the difficulty down. There will still be a learning curve, but it’ll be the difference between surviving and having to do an hour of work again because you forgot to quick save and get slapped by a foglet.

I’ve used them for a while too. Sometimes they’ll have weird keys super cheap. Like I was able to grab Dark Souls 3 + both DLC’s for like $16 or something way back when.

Virginia, so a bit of a wildcard.

I can’t quite remember all the details, but since my friend was still living with his parents he had to pay for the “catastrophic” insurance since he was over 26 and didn’t work with a company that offered anything. He might have been unemployed at that point. I think it was only $75/mo or so but I wonder if he just filled out the form wrong.

I won’t disagree, but the controlled narrative the Kremlin pushes is still very much the definition of propaganda.

It just shows how effective top down propaganda is.

Thank you for putting a name to a face. I’ve seen these gifs forever and never knew who they were.

Generally I don’t buy anything else other than Phillips. They’re usually bulletproof if you don’t get the smart bulbs. I’ve not had a Phillips fail in ~10 years. But that’s a sample size of like 30 or so bulbs.

Like the other commenter said, you can get some pretty good deals due to the recent issues.

Just don’t bother with a 13th/14th gen intel right now. Either go 12th gen intel, or straight up AMD which is what I’d recommend.

Yep. When I moved into my house the previous owner had used all garbage Walmart LED’s. I think I had one fail each month and just bought a bunch on sale from Phillips eventually.

Most common failure was the driver. So they turned into strobe lights lol. Most annoying failure ever.

And more importantly, not every LED is dimmer compatible. Sometimes they’re super picky or just plain don’t work.

 

Been watching Roadkill’s Junkyard Gold with Steve Magnante and came across this in an episode. Thought it was cool as the guy said he earned more from charging admission than selling parts.

 
 
 
 

This was possibly a stock car at some point, I can’t dig up much information other than the fact that it may not have been raced and was just meant to look the part.

 
 
 
 
 

I always thought these would be really cool with something like a 7mgte swap. Or really any inline 6.

Even a naturally aspirated 2jz, although both might be a bit on the heavy side.

 

GMC Sierra front end.

Chevrolet cab and frame/bed.

…..Corvette tail gate?

I’d drive the hell out of it.
