I’d love to have one too but I live in the city now instead of the suburbs. My car is parked on a concrete pad in the alley behind my house, a good 80 feet from any electricity. I could probably charge at work though by just parking in the warehouse and plugging in to one of the many extension cords we have around.
Same here. I’ve had mine for a few weeks and I love it. The battery life is amazing too, I charge it once a week.
Hmm well it was 430 miles but yes I did drive safely.
Hmm I don’t really have a main. I voted Playstation because that’s where MLB/NHL are, but besides that I game on PC and Playstation pretty equally.
It’s not that they’re outright difficult, it’s all about watching enemy attack patterns and memorizing them. I can do a no-death run of the first Dark Souls game now and I don’t even like difficult games, I play every game on easy the first time, but the FromSoft development style pulled me in hard.
The 7 hour drive I had last week included one stop for gas, but that’s it. We usually refer to the amount of time the gps says it will take.
Shit when I bought my pistol it friggin came WITH a trigger lock.
My friends couldn’t even figure out Reddit. Most are on discord and that’s pretty much it.
Funny that this thread hit my feed last night. I don’t have a special story to tell, but every summer my buddy and I go to Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin to Road America to watch some racing. We used to camp but we’re in our mid thirties now so I’m a bit over sleeping outside in the summer. We’ve stayed in some cheap hotels before because that’s really all my buddy can afford. No big deal, don’t wanna break the bank for him so I’m down staying in a subpar hotel.
Cue me reading this thread last night and remembering I booked at the Super 8 Motel in Sheboygan. I go back to my booking and look at the reviews. Reports of bed bugs, holes in the walls, broken AC, ground level windows without locks, all that. Also reports of sketchy people hanging out in the parking lot all hours of the night, drinking and yelling. I find a slightly better place nearby but not that much better. Then I decided to expand my search radius to include Fond Du Loc. I find a place that looks fancy as fuck with an average review score of 9.4/10 on Hotels.com called the Hotel Retlaw. It’s $20 more each per night (4 night stay).
At this point I have 3 hours left to cancel my Super 8 Motel reservation before I can’t get a refund. I call my buddy, send him a link to the Hotel Retlaw, and said dude, I will cover the difference for you ($80 extra each if you are down for me to switch it up). He agrees immediately, I cancel the reservations at the shit box motel and book these. I’m out an extra $160 total but that’s SO worth it for a nice place to stay, especially when we’re outside sweating all day. The whole weekend ticket is only $160 so it’s not an expensive vacation.
I leave tomorrow morning so I’ll report back about it if I remember, but if you read all this, look up those two places and tell me how different they look for an insignificant price increase. I have a feeling if I didn’t read this thread and go search again, I’d be posting here after this weekend about getting bed bugs or some shit.
I decided to go with Plex because I can use it from my roku TVs and my game consoles. I let a few friends and family members log in as well to stream and they’re primarily doing it from game consoles. Most of those people don’t even have a desktop PC. Granted, I don’t know what features in that ballpark that Jellyfin may have now, I set this up a long time ago and just haven’t really given it much thought since then.
One of our friends is a real-estate agent and she said the same thing. It’s not going to age well and in 10-15 years people are going to be buying these houses and ripping all that shit out.
That, and the build quality on these new houses is sometimes astoundingly poor. My friend had a house built 2 years ago and he’s had nothing but problems with shit breaking. My house was built in 1906 and while that comes with a different set of issues, it’s not falling apart like these modern luxury shitboxes seem to. It’s survived tornados, floods, and tons of other shit weather that living in the midwest brings, but it still stands strong.
But in regards to this article…the farmhouse shit is so fucking ugly. I live in a city and sometimes see people doing the farmhouse thing and it doesn’t fit at all. My friend put a sliding barn door on his bathrooms and the damn things don’t even close all the way, you can see right in through the crack where a normal door would seal. Lots of rooster-themed stuff in the kitchen and I’m just like…bud you’ve got a lot of cocks in your kitchen.
The above is like, just my opinion, man, if people reading this like the farmhouse stuff, hey it’s your house, you do you.
Ah and I’ll be in Wisconsin from Wednesday to Sunday. Might get to see them for the first time!
I do the crunch wrap with beans instead of meat and I’m not a vegetarian by any stretch, is just so much better that way IMO. The spicy potato taco is also one of my favorites.
I can make my chat bubbles be whatever color I want. My brother-in-law sometimes gives me lighthearted shit for being the green bubble or whatever in the chat but like, hey man you’re the one who put yourself in a walled garden, I don’t see it on my end.
I’d look at Telltale-style games. They’re roughly 10 hours each ( five 2-hour ish episodes) and are almost entirely story driven. The gameplay is usually very simple. You choose dialogue choices to drive the story.
The best Telltale games are in my opinion: The Wolf Among Us, Tales from the Borderlands, The Walking Dead, Batman: The Telltale Series and its sequel, Batman: The Enemy Within. They’re also releasing the first episode of The Expanse (based on the TV show since the character Camina Drummer does not exist in the books) later this month.
Another series that is very much that same style but by different devs is the Life is Strange series. I’ve played the first one and the prequel called Before the Storm. They are very emotionally heavy stories so I’m taking some time before I can go into the sequels but I absolutely love that series and will preach it to anyone who will listen.
10 hours is definitely short but it also helps that they are all done in 2-hour episodes so you can easily take breaks.
Buddha pop popcorn, and pistachios. I have huge boxes of each in my office at work.
Not a chance.
Is there an article I can read? Besides hating video in general for getting information, also fuck TikTok.
I’m the VP so I’d better be able to get away with it lol
