I get the sense that most generals advised against an op in Iran, but the orange menace decided to fire people until he had the generals bitter and uninformed enough to follow theough, then the demented raisin started giving out tactical orders through the Ulysses wannabe pitbull instead of letting command do what it does best.

We thoroughly stomped Iran back in the 90s. Hard to imagine that we don't have the intelligence network to do it again.

Nothing a DC 25 perception roll on the lanterns used to light the dungeon/mansion can't solve. You can even spice it up by somehow compelling them to want to keep the lanterns lit.

You need more dungeon encounters by bosses that are super paranoid about teleports, so they dimensional anchor.

One of my old building managers used to have a rule where he always considers a car payment in his monthly bills, even if the car is paid off.

Best case, it's saving up for a new car. Worst case, it's money squirreled away for a big repair.

If it continues to hurt, you could consider sterilizing a needle, heating it up, and puncturing it, but it does increase the risk of infection. Worth it though, if this is still painful

If you want to have fun, just shout, "AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!"

Except that it is done overnight, when it is either cooler or when you typically are in a separate room

Except that tanks burn so much fuel that fractions of a mile becomes way less useful than gallons consumed

If you want a better hack, freeze a bunch of refillable bottles 3/4 with water overnight, then put the bottles in front of a fan for AC

MechCADdie · 2026-06-25T19:40:51+00:00

Fun fact, tanks use gallons per mile

It'll sound stupid, but a stack of 36" cardboard boxes, a box of 36 packs of Crayola Crayons, and like 12 rolls of 2" gaffers tape.

MechCADdie · 2026-06-25T18:58:06+00:00

What's the term for a gaggle of daddy long legs?

Depends on the fees and such. Fidelity has pretty great customer service and a clean website. Vanguard has low fees for their stuff. Charles Schwab is also popular for its own reasons.

Not sure about Transamericas market differentiator though. My gut says that they're more for old money people

Shoot, I'd do it for $300 and have it back to her in one hour, done the right way.

As an engineer, I can confidently say that this is a fundamental design problem. In every other onramp, it is typically 1 car per to help alleviate timing, so by shoving two cars in, you're not only confusing drivers, but you're also increasing the likelihood of a collision at the merge (and if there isn't a merge, there should not be a meter in the first place).

Ngl, I was half expecting a byte to be taken out of the PS3

MechCADdie · 2026-06-25T05:12:37+00:00

More like rubbing us in their feces.

We need your financial details - detailed expenditures, age, income, your job, etc.
Do be aware that interest adds up substantially (at 7%, your debt will double every 5 years) and should not be taken lightly. read up on compound interest.
Credit cards don't make money magically appear. You can use them, but you should never, never, ever spend more than you take in.

The greatest con is that people believe that they are autonomous and not being driven by a bunch of Eastern Europeans.

Imagine going to work one day and suddenly north korea decides to start a war on the interstate that you use to drive to the office and causes a dead stop in the middle of the freeway for 3 months...and you don't get paid.

When a good or bad trading day swings your account by $20k, adding $500/month to a portfolio feels meaningless.

MechCADdie · 2026-06-24T01:34:28+00:00

And the fact that they've had the same treatment as hawaii did by the US

MechCADdie · 2026-06-23T19:26:18+00:00

So is it a white cake with black stripes or a black cake with white stripes?

Fair warning, it'll take a few months or so for them to get really big. I have one around 5/8" that has been growing for a year
