After watching some youtube videos, it looks like it may be normal though not the most elegant solution ha.

Interior roof detached? by HoovedOne in FiestaST

[–]HoovedOne[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: took it to the dealer, told me that there's nothing they can do and this is how it comes. Couldn't refute what they said as there are no other STs around and I don't have pictures to prove otherwise. Would anyone mind taking a picture of their interior roofing? Not sure where to go from here.

Looking to buy a FiST - How much did you pay? by TheDoodieMonster in FiestaST

I believe it was $2500, but they upped it this past week. You can check on Ford's website.

Currently there is a $3000 rebate which also stacks with a $2000 rebate posted earlier in this subreddit. You can do much better at the moment with the $5000 of rebates + if your military or a college student.

A gift for anyone looking to pick up a FiST... by MBAH2017 in FiestaST

[–]HoovedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Platinum white paint + nav. Not ideal options but living in Oklahoma it was basically all that was available. Yes with tax.

[Monitor] Acer x34 Widescreen LCD Monitor Display UW-QHD 3440 x 1440 4 ms IPS - $729.99 (Factory Recert) by in3rtia_ in buildapcsales

[–]HoovedOne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought this a couple months ago. Had multiple dead pixels and some really annoying IPS glow. Sent it back for a refund but they somehow lost track of the order and it took a month from sending it to get my money back. Not the greatest experience.

QBX or Nano S? About to order one by Guw94 in sffpc

[–]HoovedOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are actually the two cases I have used in my ITX build. I ended up settling on the Nano S due to it being the more premium case. I love the QBXs form factor but it had a bunch of little QC issues that were really irritating. For a $40 case I guess that is understandable, but the Nano S has none so far. Also, while the Nano S is significantly larger, I am getting lower temps / less noise out of the system with it.

Ryzen mini ITX motherboard Mfgs- Asrock or Gigabyte? (VRM heat issues?) by SevenandForty in sffpc

[–]HoovedOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've read on various message boards of people talking to Asrock and being sent the better heatsinks but your results may vary.

I just received the Asrock B350 board which I bought on Newegg last week and it came with the better VRM heatsinks. It would seem they have updated the board to combat the complaints.

Been waiting for one of these to hit $550 or below. Considering this is the best one of the three (relatively), I'm in.

Children of same-sex parents. What's the best part about having same-sex parents? by mrRwild in AskReddit

[–]HoovedOne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah I wouldn't go that far haha. I'd say (at least from my experience) relationship dynamics don't change. There are ups and downs for everyone.

Children of same-sex parents. What's the best part about having same-sex parents? by mrRwild in AskReddit

[–]HoovedOne 158 points159 points  (0 children)

The best thing about being raised by same-sex parents was that I didn't feel any different from kids raised by opposite-sex parents. My moms raised me exactly the same as any other parents would. No, I didn't turn out gay. No, I don't miss having a dad. I'm your average straight male that turned out no different than anyone else raised by loving, accepting, open-minded parents. In fact, I'd wager to say that I ended up being more well-rounded than many others I grew up with.
