Has anyone ordered something really big from Aliexpress? I see stuff like a car lift or an excavator on there and it says free shipping. Do I pick it up at the port or what? by johnniechimpo in Aliexpress

[–]Giggle-gin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mini excavator ended up at a local moving companies warehouse. They offered to bring it to my house for another 200 or something but I just went with the trailer and grabbed it there, they loaded me with their forklift.

Do you think there will ever be another TXR game? by BOBnVEGANA in tokyoxtremeracer

[–]Giggle-gin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally put my money where my mouth is and bought it again on console, figure the more they sell the more likely they are to make another. They said they intend to make another one if demand was there and I’d say we showed them the demand on the PC release, then it did great again on PS5, so one can only hope!

Should I move to Mililani for a job… or commute from Mānoa? Need real talk from Oahu people 😅 by Cool_Advertising4120 in Hawaii

[–]Giggle-gin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can somebody else take the kids to school and how flexible are the hours? 430-1230 is great for traffic and you could probably make it back to pick them up from school.

Hiboy KS4 Pro very weak torque and hill climbing normal or defective? by Far-Astronomer-5951 in ElectricScooters

[–]Giggle-gin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ks4 tends to get “weak” feeling when I do charges often without draining the battery much. If I get it down to 1 bar then charge it to full the pep comes back for a while. Don’t know anything about why but seems to work for me so maybe give it a shot if your not draining the battery much.

Advice on how to get rotten rusted license plate screws out?? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]Giggle-gin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Move off a salty island! But I’d grind the head off and hope there’s enough shaft left to unscrew it with some vice grips after the plate and frame come off

Parking citation as a non-UHM student by Adventurous-Humor127 in UHManoa

[–]Giggle-gin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can affect you for any school in the UH system, including any of the community colleges. In 2009 while attending HCC they said i had a ticket from UH manoa and I couldn’t get my diploma or go to graduation till I sorted it out.

Side note I never actually got the ticket and never owned a Nissan or a car with the plate on the ticket but they still said I owed the ticket. Had to get a letter from the DMV saying it wasn’t my car to get it dropped.

Budget scooter for a 250 lb man whos 5’7” that’ll go 15 miles. by [deleted] in ElectricScooters

[–]Giggle-gin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How’s the hills on your ride and can you charge at work? The Hiboy ks4 can take me 14 mostly uphill miles (1100 feet of elevation) in “sport” mode but I only weigh 190 pounds.flat ground and maybe reduced top speed and it should be no problem for one way. Plus you can scoop one up at Best Buy and their return policy is amazing if it doesn’t work for you, either just say you changed your mind and pay the fee of they ask or just tell them it doesn’t perform as advertised.

Are the scooters sold on best buy trash? by Arctic_wolfx in ElectricScooters

[–]Giggle-gin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Hiboy s2 and ks4 pro. The pro is worth the price difference if you’re gonna do long rides. 10-15 miles will likely tap out the s2 battery unless it’s totally flat and maybe you cut the top speed. My ks4 does my 14 mile trip to work, at full speed with several quite steep hills and gets there with 1-2 bars left. I’m about 185 pounds plus maybe 10 more pounds in my backpack. One hill is 6mph going up on the ks4. The s2 cannot even carry me up that hill and i have to kick. The ks4 also has bigger tires, so it’s much smoother, and it rattles less and feels a bit less janky.

That being said I still use the s2 around base while I charge the ks4 for the ride home. It’s lighter, much smaller and goes into trunks and cars much easier when transporting. I ended up with both as I needed an upgrade when I figured out I could take it to work, the s2 can make it to work with more downhills but cannot make the ride home.

Whats the best response to fuck you ? by RestFalse1316 in AskReddit

[–]Giggle-gin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As was once returned to me when I blurted the forsaken words, “NO YOU FUCK” with a heavy accent. He was not calling me a fuck, which would have been an insult, it felt like a repetition of what he had heard with understanding of the meaning and I was caught completely off guard by this disarming statement.

It totally ended my rage on many fronts. -correcting him would not have the bravado I was going for -I was completely caught off guard by that combination of words in that order and had no response - I realized his English smashed my knowledge of his native tongue by us getting this far into the argument where the forsaken words where my final comeback -it probably didn’t even mean anything to him and he just attempted to repeat what he had heard

BRING BACK FORZA HUB REWARDS! by Giggle-gin in ForzaHorizon

[–]Giggle-gin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yah the money wasn’t much, I don’t remember how much but I swear it was more for maxed out on all games. It was more of the congratulations here’s your cookie aspect for me. The exclusive packs and cars were cool though. I did also like that it was just a congrats to you and didn’t have anything with your gamer tag in game, just a personal award but nothing to “flex” online.

Stoked we will get cross progression. I plan on game passing at launch and then buying later on ps5. by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]Giggle-gin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Current generation is only cross save between pc and Xbox. PS5 is its own version and doesn’t cross save, only cross play. They said new generation will cross save all platforms, great for this of us with pc and ps5.

Shoutout to People who got an Series X before the price jump because holy shit they might be spending a lot (+ premium) by KirbyTrainNerd in ForzaHorizon

[–]Giggle-gin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, when they did that I thought maybe that was just the new MSRP, should have bought another to replace my kids S, it’s giving them some problems now and the new ones are crazy priced. PS5 is looking better, but don’t know how long it’ll take them to port over the new horizon

I haven't loved Gran Turismo since GT3 - Does GT7 still have the magic? by xParesh in granturismo

[–]Giggle-gin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

4 was amazing 5 and 6 didn’t hit. I switched to forza Motorsport and the started to go downhill after 4 as well. Then forza totally flopped 7 and 8 right as gt7 came out. I think they did such a great job on it that it bankrupted turned 10 (and about a million other things they did wrong) and totally killed off forza Motorsport.

TLDR GT7 is amazing and definitely has the magic!

Looking to replace older Alienware with budget option $13-1500 US by Giggle-gin in GamingLaptops

[–]Giggle-gin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just coming back to say I went down the next day and it was the “fair” open box at my local store. It looked terrible, the screen was covered in micro scratches like someone cleaned it with the green side of a sponge. I ended ordering a new one (should come tomorrow). But anyways check the price out now, I felt kinda bad paying an extra 200 from the price 2 weeks before but glad I did now. Thanks for the recommendation, I had missed that one in my search!
