Any chance your partner uses the heater and you don't? Many cars have a heater core bypass valve that only allows coolant into the heater core when the heat is on in the cabin.

Oh dang, the Stargate finally came online.

Because the magnet is attached to the truck bed, so the bumper is being pulled forward and the bed pushed back, and the forces cancel out to 0.

Awesome! I claim victory for this thread. One more notch carved into the 1/2" ratchet.

People be jumping straight to head gaskets way too much when coolant issues arise.

I could happen here! Four 12-hour days..

Phantasy Star Online. They've tried to release sequels over the years - Universe, PSO2 - and failed miserably at capturing what made Episodes 1 and 2 great. There's no way they would be able to just update the graphics without trying to "improve" something in the gameplay, or changing the loot system, or adding MTX, and would just fuck it up again.

PSO is so good that even now, 23 years after it launched on Dreamcast, there's still hundreds if not thousands of people like me that still play regularly. Whether that's offline on their GameCube or online in Blue Burst on PC on a server like Ephinea.

When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn't wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.

Nah. My older 1080p stuff remains, but I just do 4k only now. Media server is powerful enough to transcode to 1080 on the fly for any device that can't handle 4k, or for slower network conditions.

I mean, I was, because the goal was to make a star..

Robust transportation infrastructure means you can expand your pool of partners and social programs supporting family planning and contraception make it even easier to get laid. We need to pay more taxes so everyone can get laid as easily and frequently as possible.

"Aww, Thank You So Much."

Phantasy Star Online (PSO). I have thousands of hours in that game across Dreamcast, GameCube and PC over the decades and I'm still not tired of it. It absolutely nailed the loot system and you're always looking to get another rare box drop. BlueBurst on PC still has multiple active and populated servers, but I feel like it doesn't get much discussion in gaming communities in general despite being one of the pioneers of online gaming on consoles.

I like SearXNG

I run Ryobi for battery tools and Harbor Freight stuff for most of the hand tools. I splurged a bit and went with Tekton for my wrenches. But really, harbor freight stuff has been absolutely fine for me, especially their new higher tier tools like Icon and Quinn.

Vampire Survivors is basically mandatory at this point.

Hell yeah that looks delicious, throw that on a steak and lets eat.

Assuming you have a PC, come join us on the Ephinea PSOBB server: https://ephinea.pioneer2.net/

Well cool, about time. If they put offline mode in it'll finally make sense to put it on my Steam deck. Been wanting to play it portable since I got the deck but always use it away from home and setting up a hotspot connection to play an ARPG solo isn't great.
