  • All I know is the Phantasmal Gardener (four worms fight) is my new Gremlin Nob. I'm desperate to find an AOE or big burst card before I start hitting Act 1 elites because that asshole has tanked my run more than once now

  • ouch

  • I doubt you lose the GPS connection, but you lose the network connection to make the mapping and navigation work. About like navigating with your phone without cell service

  • ouch

  • They charge for premium network connectivity. It's $10/month to make use of if the LTE radio in the car for connecting directly to streaming services without your phone, live camera feeds in your cell phone app, and some extra map stuff. You still get eight years of basic navigation and updates if you don't pay for it.

    The heated seats thing was BMW, which they back tracked on

  • As Dan Savage would say, there's no more dangerous place for a trans woman than in a confused straight man's bedroom during his refractory period

  • As someone who worked IT help desk in the mid/late aughts: fuck VGA and DVI. Let them stay dead. If I had a nickel for every time I snagged one in a desk's rat's nest on every single USB or power cable while trying to route cables, I could build me a top of the line gaming rig with 2026 prices.

  • The first ultra wide gaming experience I had was with Shadow of Mordor. It was like walking onto the set of one of the Peter Jackson movies.

    If you can swing it, I recommend the extra step of getting a curved ultra wide. I started with one and ended up swapping it with a bigger flat one for some productivity features and the corners just felt so far away from me that it diluted the gaming experience a bit.

  • On the tiny, itty, bitty bright side, that 10% is used to being loud and annoying

  • If you continue to get push back, consider going to the manager during business hours and discussing it with them. They don't want a grumpy Google review on their location.

    I once had a card skimmed and cancelled. I forgot about my Anytime Fitness membership until three months later when I had racked up hundreds in late fees. Talked to the manager, who just went in and removed the charges from my account while I waited.

  • Nearly happened to Ving Rhames in 2018.

  • I feel the quality of the instructions were sufficient and suspect you just wished to stick something up your butt

  • To be fair, Aragorn was no slouch with that bow when they were fighting their way out of the Mines of Moria. Maybe he was an archer all along who just got overshadowed by Legolas and spec'd late into longsword to be a good party member.

  • Movies With Mikey has an interesting anecdote from a pre-release screening he saw of Serenity. Wash's death was so unexpected that a woman in the audience started screaming and had a panic attack until she could be removed from the theater.

    That part was pretty brutal, but it did make the stakes in the following hallway fight feel appropriately sky high.

  • Super green, Korben my man.

  • 272-867-5309 specifically forwards to this help line. Any other area code is going to be different. I imagine anyone who gets that seven digit number quickly ditches it due to spam. It does come in handy if anyone asks for a telephone number tied to a grocery store account or similar though

  • The big draw of Wasteland 2 and 3 for me was getting classic Fallout-style gameplay with modern quality of life improvements. They've got very similar aesthetics and chunky gameplay, though Wasteland is more squad oriented

  • I bounced off of that one for a while. Bought it on sale and was kinda digging it until I hit the first boss and just couldn't beat him. I tried a few times until I noticed that I was losing some not -yet-defined currency with every death and found that very antagonistic. I can't remember if they'd implemented the invincibility toggle and I was too bull headed to use it, or if this was before that update.

    Put it down for a few years, then came back to it when I heard enough people raving about how much they had enjoyed it. I think Alan Wake 2 was out by that point. Picked it up, used invincibility to get past that boss, turned it off, and fell in love with the rest of the game like everyone else

  • Taco Bell has already automated the drive though orders at a number of locations. The staff still have to listen to the conversation to make sure the AI agent doesn't go off the rails. I bet they've got some fun stories

  • I've got a bunch of pint glasses from local breweries, and they hold up just fine to the dishwasher. Nice thing is if I DO break one, it's an excuse to go back to the brewery and get another.

  • Is it some kind of social commentary that the writer seems progressively more superstitious and easily frightened as the centuries roll back?

    Dude talks about a walk back to his B&B like he's a Hobbit dodging nazguls
