It's a refurbished house turned into some apartments, which is fair enough that it will be a bit weird, but there's piping leading to the sink and if you're tearing into walls, just fix that.

Generally people try to do the least amount of work possible when they are doing those kinds of renovations. Especially if the work would normally require permits and inspections.

If you are starting from the assumption that there is one answer for all women, you probably have more things to worry about than just your muscle mass when it comes to being attractive to women.

How is this game on PS4? It's fun on here but I think it might be better on there. Not sure how you play with a controller as opposed to a mouse though

Having played it on both PC and console they actually do a pretty good job of adapting the game. You don't have quite the same fine control as you would with a mouse, but it works pretty well overall.

it would have a tempurature change of 5-6 degrees.

I am far from a climate expert, but given that a mild cold snap could change the temperature by that much for 15 days, I think you're overblowing this.


Considering the temperature dropped by 5-6 degrees in the totality areas during the recent eclipse, I think we'd seem much more significant decreases than that. I have no idea if it would actually be an extinction event, but I have to imagine it would be pretty catastrophic for a lot of the world.

Don't ask me if our sauces are gluten free while drinking a beer made with malt. You're drinking gluten.

Gluten free ppl are annoying in general. I genuinely feel sorry for anyone that's actually gluten intolerant because now they sound like one of the gluten free morons every time they order food.

I am. I have mixed feelings about the fad dieters, on the one hand their foolishness makes it harder for people like me to be taken seriously, but on the other hand, their weird obsession with gluten has made gluten-free food tastier and more widely available.


This is definitely true. A friend of mine was diagnosed with Celiac back before anyone had ever heard of it or 'gluten free' so her only real option was to learn how to make stuff herself. Now almost every restaurant has gluten free options and you can find tons of stuff in grocery stores.

It took me a while to get a good Jesseth set, but it made a big difference in the overall effectiveness of the build.

I'll be completely honest, it took so long for me to get because I thought it was the necro off hand weapon item thingy but it's just a shield....Once I learned it was a shield, I spent like 500 - 600 shards and got it....I didn't feel smart...


Yeah, I did that too. I spent a ton of shards gambling for phylacteries before realizing it was a shield. I think I think I finally got it while upgrading a rare shield using the cube, but at least I somewhat made up for it by getting an ancient one.

I find that generally happens with most sets, you have that lightbulb moment of how it is supposed to play and everything starts feeling a lot easier.

Yeah, I read what it did and thought, "that...doesn't sound very good" Then I got the set. I thought, "meh, might as well try it since I have the whole set." Now I got a pretty good skill setup that I like and it works quite well. Now I use the gift set and I finally got the Jesseth set as well!


It took me a while to get a good Jesseth set, but it made a big difference in the overall effectiveness of the build.

Durability is probably the biggest overall issue I have with the build in greater rifts, especially right at the start when you don't have any of your damage mitigation up and running. Usually if I can get through that I can clear the rest of the rift without dying. I cleared a GR 74 last night with no deaths.

The foil says "Do not microwave" on it, so it's the fault of the person microwaving it.

This, not that it would stop someone from suing over it and maybe getting a settlement thrown at them to avoid another McDonald's hot coffee scenario.


Supposedly, that hot coffee thing was somewhat legitimate. McDonalds was apparently storing their coffee way hotter than it should have ever been because they found that majority of people wait until they get to work to drink it and it would have saved them money. She supposedly also suffered way worse injuries than just the burns, but what exactly they were escapes me at the moment. Something to actually look up and get the facts on if you really want to know what was going on. But there was an actual reason why she won that lawsuit rather than she was too stupid to not pour the coffee on herself.


I'd mostly picked Liebeck because she offered to settle for $20k and McDonald's took it to court. Nobody knows what it ended up costing them since they ultimately did settle out of court before the appeals.

So it's basically like a mobile game but has a $40 entry fee? Yeah that's bollocks even by mobile standards.

Well the $40 entry fee is only during the Early Access, it will actually be free once the game is released.

Sounds like it is still essentially a standard mobile game freemium model though.


the red flag here is that if someone saw this at a store like walmart target gamestop or bestbuy there is no indication anywhere that this is just a beta an unfinished project that's in early access mode

where i got this game(walmart)they had signs and displays promoting it as the next great game you gotta pick up and nowhere anywhere did it say "this is just an early access copy"

and they don't even give you the option of buying the base $40 version at retail it's the deluxe $59.99 version for consoles

for something that'd going free to play next year that's outrageous

I'm posting this so people don't make the same mistake i did and purchase this game


I didn't even know they were selling physical copies. That is definitely on the shady side to sell what is effectively a beta of a F2P game in stores at normal retail game pricing.
