Trump? Nope, Ali was the first that came to mind. As it should have for anyone. Why anyone would immediately think Trump, even his supporters, is beyond me.

No complaints. Nor saying anything about it being overpriced or anything like that. If anything, just said it was comparable to other sellers. Just telling it like it is when it comes to buying any piece of computer equipment anywhere or from anyone. As a general matter including from myself. Calm yourself and dont take it so personally. Its my two cents to spend. I dont need permission to spend it.

I did the Boo-Bash thing one night and IHO it wasnt worth it. In the past it used to be more of a party and festival. But I suppose because of covid its now just to provide lower crowds. But it was but still pretty crowded. However I did get to go on a couple rides several times each over the last 30-45 minutes. Maybe would have been worth it if it applied to every park, with more desirable rides, not just the MK.

Because someone whines doesnt mean they arent right. In any case, so long as the dealer is reputable... and will stand behind any problems that arise... then pay what you want. That said, I assume its not newegg itself but a third party. 30x series are available at the price you sold it.... more or less... for the moment. Only caution I would add I suppose is whether or not warranties apply if purchased from a third party that isnt a valid reseller. Usually the fine print says no. Had to RMA a new one, past the usual 30 days, with an original bill of sale so personally I am careful about warranties.

The sirens at home in the Bay Area. A nice respite from them. Not that I live in Compton. Lets see. Galaxy's Edge as an environment was very well done. Great attention to even the really little details. Also, because of the layout and design once through the single entrance you cant see or hear any other parts of the park no matter where you are. To keep the immersion of a space port going. No Jawa's to be found though. Rise of the Resistance is kinda overrated as a ride but its immersion was very good. There are a few things they could easily add that would make it even better. Such as three or four more Imperial officers *directing* the prisoners/guests. One had her controlling role down pat. At least as far as you could get away with at Disney with kids around. Did it once, but didnt really have a strong desire to do it a second time due to the wait times (often 2 hours). Smugglers Run was much better as a ride. Oga's Cantina was the best part of Galaxy's Edge though. Which is why its so hard to get rezzers for it. Right at the bar both times I was there enjoying my evening drink before calling it a day. Great bartenders. One of which had the 'annoyed' attitude and actions (like the one from ANH) down pretty good. If you ever plan to go, get at least two dates as a way to cap off a long day of walking and waiting. They do have non-alcoholic options if you prefer. Unfortunately, because of Covid, all the usual character meet+greets were not there like Darth Vader. Which was a shame. But I heard that they are working on trying to restore meet and greets everywhere as soon as possible, maybe by the big Christmas celebration. There were two stormtroopers perfectly in character, guarding a ship, interacting with the crowds. I was taking a video of one and he stood there staring me with a 'who the fuck are you' vibe. Whoever was inside the Chewy suit was always fully in character in his mannerisms even when listening to his 'handler'. One thing I 'didnt' do was the little cup of blue milk however. Even for Disney it was horribly overpriced considering it is just coconut milk with, I was told, some kind of almond sweetener. There was an alcoholic version, with rum I think, that cost twice as much.

The funny farm? With the nice young men in their clean white coats?

Just have to say, and maybe people should look into this perspective, after NOT being able to even see or read this thread for nearly two weeks (clan only and I didnt have my pwd) I am a much better person for it. So, have fun all.

Trust me. Its NOT %50. And its NOT walk on. Was nice not having to listen to all the police sirens day and night.

And away I go. Fly out to MCO early tomorrow morning for WDW for a week. Check out all the 50th anniversary and Halloween stuff. Galaxy's Edge. Assuming I can get a time slot for it before its all booked. Gotta try each morning at exactly 7am... like all the other riff-raff doing it. If I can arrange it, maybe check out the Celebration area to see what its like. First time on a plane in 15 years. Actually, first significant vacation in 3 years. Would have gone on one a year ago but Covid and the various shutdowns nixed that idea. I hate the packing though. I am always worried that I will forget something important. And in the back of my mind also hoping that TSA wont find some kind of issue to cause a problem or... worst case scenario... deny me entry.

China also has some kind of electronic currency of their own coming out based on the yuan. Or something like that. So bitcoin et al is a direct competitor outside of their control.

After seeing these posts... I will pass on watching it.

Rib Eyes are my favorite but they are horribly expensive.

If the earth was flat, where exactly are the edges? Between the US and Asia? The US and Europe? Is Hawaii right on the edge if the latter? Then again, maybe all of you are wrong and we are all actually living on the back of a turtle.

Also Blazzing Saddles. "Excuse me while I whip this out." So many great quotes from that movie, cant count them all.

Ending a comment with 'Period!', trying to have the last word, is passe. These days its "I have spoken."

A 3070? Ugh. A pox on you and your house.

There are so many to choose from, where can anybody begin? "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member." -Groucho Marx

Sorry been busy and away for awhile. I dont even remember much of what the scripting was like in the old mod about emp since so much of it was rewritten from scratch. As for the car (and all the others like it), sounds like telefrag checks so players dont get stuck and easy targets. The default is that players are visible, for the duration physically occupying the space, and are thus shootable. Doing it with the invisible setting has some compromises and this is one of them. Just to note, telefrag checks have also been used since the beginning of the game (and thus a built in engine function) to prevent players from spawning on the same spot and being stuck in each other. Assuming the mapper included enough spawn points which sometimes they didnt. For those that remember, telefragging was a popular method of killing enemies using the translocator. One reason why a lot of places shut it off. Great fun if you were good enough to do it.

Is that surcharge above and beyond the price of a gallon of gas?

To run it this is what I would have to do since my cpu isnt on the support list. Likely the mb is missing the newer security features. Admittedly a majority of the stuff on my system is on the older side. But at the moment I dont really have a need to shell out the bucks for a new system. Not worth it anyways unless I could get a new gpu to go with it.

Stored at your parents? Not only did he store his stash there for nearly a year instead of renting a cheap one at a storage facility. When he got a new place he wanted them to pack it all up and ship it to him. Including said stash that included god knows what.

I thought they required a test taken within the previous 72 hours. Vaccine or not. I kinda remember that when researching vacations. If they currently dont, be sure to keep an eye out just in case they change their mind. By the end of next month I half expect the airlines will be asking for vaccine cards or recent negative covid tests.

All those tire tracks, she must always be in an awful hurry to get home.

Nope. Cant say I am interested. But for all you know, maybe its bdsm lesbian midget porn?

The link to the site itself is on the original AP story on their website. https://apnews.com/article/indiana-michigan-muncie-grand-haven-d52201655d54b71aa0d544245c1ecc97 So I figured it was legit. You can bypass the nag screen on the bottom of it and there is an option to continue without disabling your adblockers. That said, if a site does have that kind of nag screen but no option to bypass it, such as the same story on dailymail, I close the window.
