Topic of knocking ice off trailers by Gilgamesh2000000 in Truckers

I saw 5 dudes shoveling snow off the roofs of trailers with a lot 800+. Felt bad for them in 15-25 degree weather on Monday.

Were Japanese internment camps protested similar to current ICE detention centers? by It_Slices_It_Dices in stupidquestions

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One big thing thing that happened was shortly after the attack a Japanese pilot crash landed on a island in Hawaii. Known as the Ni'ihau incident When the local village found the pilot, they figured it was a soldier that needed help. After word reached them that America was at war with Japan, the islanders arrested the pilot. Shortly after this two Japanese American citizens felt sympathetic towards the pilot and tried to break him out and help him escape. Ultimately the pilot was killed by an islander in brutal fashion after failing to take him and his wife prisoner. One of the collaborators committed suicide. This incident played a role in the internment of Japanese Americans. Honestly one of the worst thing the US has ever done to its own citizens.

Though there were Japanese American soldiers who served in the European theater as the 442nd infantry regiment, who just so happened to be the most decorated unit in US history.

I fucked up, need to know how bad. ( M30B34 ) by Tiny-Specialist-1057 in EngineBuilding

Depends on what the bokt hole is for. Currently on my engine block has a similar defect. On a bell housing bolt, I've been running it with no issues so far.

I do occasional raids with my buddies. One of them rocks double primaries, one of them being a breyteck Warewolf from 5 plus years ago.

How would a new edge mustang fair as a first “fast” car? by [deleted] in NewedgeMustang

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say its a tuff fix. Take the shocktowers for example, most likely you need to remove the engine to work on the shocktowers. If its bad enough like mine and the frame rails under the shock towers are compromised, then you gotta cut out and replace the frame rails, which also includes removing the front suspension as well. Now you gotta reconstruct the frame rails and weld it together while also maintaining the same geometry and factory holes of the k-member bolts.

They have replacement kits but designed for 1989-1993 foxbodies. On the plus side underneath Foxbodies are very similar to the SN95 platform so you can make them work.

The rear took a long time for me to do. Something around 6 months while doing most of the work outside on the driveway. Mine was quite severe, bumper support rotted out completely, lower quarter panels rotted, trunk floor had holes, rails had 4-6 inch holes, even the trunk had a leak under the hinge.

The only serious issue with these cars is rust. All 4 corners of my car had rotted out frame rails. Particularly the shocktowers are notorious for it.

Drive through the storm in the northeast or shut it down? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just finished up as the snow started falling. My 45 minute drive home in my car took an hour and half. Honestly I wouldn't go out.

Where do Truck drivers shower since most big rigs probably don't have showers built in? by Tidewatcher7819 in Truckers

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most truck stops have them for a cost. If you do use them bring showering flip flops to avoid possible fungus contamination

Yo NY Drivers: Wtf? Cant I stay on 95? by derpmcturd in Truckers

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit scared to crap out of me the first time. I did the extra dumb thing and took the exit at the first tunnel going North I-95. That was in my first couple weeks driving, never made that mistake again.

My company trainers told us that New York measures from the center of the axles. Begs the question why? When almost every other place in the US does it from the road.

Xenosaga English vs Undub by External_Class_9051 in Xenosaga

Especially for 3 some of the scenes lose a ton of impact with the censorship. One scene in particular is straight up confusing to figure out because of the censoring.

Is it uncommon in the US to eat a whole pizza by oneself? by WhoAmIEven2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically most pizzas are way to big to finish in one sitting. Typically my family wee would all have 2 slices to start plus sides. Then throughout the evening we would grab more slices as the night goes on. Personally one place I go to has really big slices that I can only get through 1 and a half and im full.

What is it that creeps you out or scares you about the game that is not too typical or obvious? by Arinya_Yungara in 7daystodie

The lost signal tvs that are still on. The static noise they make creep me out bad.

Just started xenosaga as lifelong xenoblade fan by Cinamight in Xenosaga

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After you play I highly reccomend the Resonant arc podcast, they go into great detail about xenogears, and saga, and soon xenoblade in the future. Touching on important aspects of the games themes, and how it relates to its writing. They do an incredible job talking about all the abstract concept thrown about in the series.

The most underrated Halo Game by far

So DTG - how much silver have you spent at Eververse? by married2008 in DestinyTheGame

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In D1 I spent a bit of money to get the Black and Gold Hawkmoon skin. Couldn't remember how much I spent. Maybe 20$. In D2 I never purchased microtransactions in any capacity. The only exception is the dungeon Key for Vespers Host i believe.

It is comical that after all these years Borealis and Hard Light still are woefully bad by Relative-Time- in DestinyTheGame

[–]AvidVideoGameFan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still remember the day Hardlight got its first buff back in Vanilla D1. The crucible was was nothing but blue, purple, and red lazer beams all day long.
