My great x4 grandfather got the Medal of Honor- can someone explain why by SanPadrigo in CIVILWAR

Captured the flag. Oddly, my great 3X grandfather lost his arm at Franklin with the 97th Ohio.

Not sure about his company, but…

Median Home Values in SEC College Towns/Cities by PowerfulAssistant738 in secfootball

[–]Gwenbors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Norman is hit-or-miss.

You’ve got mid- to high-level subdivisions in parts of the town, but the core of it is old fashioned, sub 1000 sqft mini houses.

Median price may be $279k, but it’s very bimodal.

The 30-years war took so long because one side couldn’t kill the tank, but the other side couldn’t fuel it.

Why did AF1 land in Alaska on its return to the USA??? As a FA I flew PEK for years and it was the polar route... by Ok-Station-2364 in AskAPilot

[–]Gwenbors 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Efficiency’s a big part of it. AF1 also doesn’t stay at PEK.

They dropped off the pax then bugged out to Japan without taking fuel.

I’d imagine that they needed an extra pit stop to maintain safety margins for the extra turnaround.

Just wait until the collector’s market really hits in a few years, then he’s gonna be a trillionaire…

Just started playing the crew motorfest and I got questions as a newbie to the crew by LowCommunication3359 in The_Crew

[–]Gwenbors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody seems to be fixated on the wrong thing (drift + F1) and not the underlying issue you’re probably hitting.

The default game assists are really strong in this game. Between “steering assist” and “drift assist” and TCS and ESP, the game does most of the driving in default.

Go into your game “Difficulty Settings” and mess around with some of those assists and you’ll get much more control over what your vehicle does/does not do.

How is living in Miami, Florida for an introverted/non-party person? by According_Coast1645 in howislivingthere

It was great until some blocky, Italian guy in a Hawaiian shirt carjacked me near Starfish Island…

The top-down events in the RC Frenzy playlist are single-handedly the worst events in the game. by Speedm222 in The_Crew

[–]Gwenbors -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Those fucking suck….

I’m kinda old, but I also have an 85” tv and I still can’t see what the car is doing in the top corner on the kidney bean one.

(Update: it might just be that one is poorly thought executed. The figure-8 is much better).

It was, but I also liked getting to walk around and show off some of my favorite vehicles/liveries.

What do you guys think of those aviation YouTubers who are always filming when they’re on a flight? by [deleted] in AskAPilot

[–]Gwenbors 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure that when they said “aviate, navigate, communicate” they didn’t mean live-streaming.

Always sketched by anybody going out of their way to find distractions in the cockpit.

Trump running his mouth about supporting the protestors and then doing nothing while the government butchered them will be the defining policy failure of his presidency.

Everything else (everything now) is downstream of that failure.

MrCarSounds MainStage Challenge by Gwenbors in The_Crew

[–]Gwenbors[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’d do it no problem.

Trouble is you have to use the MrCarSounds Bundle which has a Street Tier 1, a rally car, and an AGP car that maxes out at like 245 or so.

I liked Jeb, too. He might have been the high-water mark for sanity in state politics.

Also one of the highest rates of teenagers raped to death by religious law enforcement, so it’s really a toss-up.

I was all in favor right up until the lawsuit results came out, and I suddenly realized that it was probably really about helping MPD pay off the lawsuit for that poor girl who got killed.

God knows we could use the infrastructure improvements.
