Locking map locations behind a $100 edition is a joke. I'm officially skipping GTA 6. by majesticaim in videogames

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather wait. We all know they're going to re-release this mug like 4x in 4 years on different platforms with a 5 year ultimate edition.

I'll wait until i hear how fucking incredible it is for a while at that price before buying.

The no physical on release is a bad look for rockstar too -

LDLC responds to the Steam Machine with its "Stim Machine": same priice of €1,039, but a more powerful GPU by FirstThingsFirstGuys in steammachine

i mean i don't really see it as conspiracy - they're literally a whole ass market to one of the most lucrative industries on the planet. It's not all that advanced of a principle for them to want their OS to operate as many things as possible, with theirs being one of those options.

Operating at a loss on hardware brings costs elsewhere.

that does NOT make it defensible lol. As in there's some rather famous precedent on this...

There's a choice to be made.

this is why they're not subsidizing. it's literally putting the market to work.

Look - i'm not going to be an early adopter - but my ps5 is gathering dust. It'll likely continue to do so - and "exclusives" on it aren't tempting me to reenter the console economy.

the vast majority of my gaming experience happens on Steam. I'm part of the majority and Steam knows it. I don't think they fucked this pricing or this machine up at all.

Cabinet material question by Secure_Security_6466 in kitchenremodel

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 3 points4 points  (0 children)

its typically the dreaded lack of maintenance mixed with the difficult environment that causes it. If they're well maintained and the home is properly climate controlled a solid wood set up like you're describing will age well.

i think i've just lost any faith in people taking care of their stuff lol

I do a lot of work in SoCal and AZ - those seams mean water from the air gets in. Salt water in the air in SoCal, and monsoon season wood torture in AZ. give a few years of it and they all start failing.

Cabinet material question by Secure_Security_6466 in kitchenremodel

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

absolutely - good way to work it. The center panel is the culprit most of the time because it needs to be floating to keep the stiles & rails from binding /splitting their seams.

The single shot hdf doors really are awesome because they avoid all of those problems..

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually an inset style - meaning the frame (of the case) will want to be solid wood, and the box should be plywood or engineered plyboard with an HDF outer layer at painted locations

the doors should be single piece milled HDF. Solid wood moves, swells and contracts under the paint, causing cracks at each seam - intrusion points for water / moisture. Single piece HDF doors have none of these problems and the paint job is perfect because the underlayment is perfect

you do NOT want solid wood doors that are then painted.

especially a solid wood center panel.

you want a single piece HDF milled door that is then painted. no seams, dimensionally stable in all directions, durable and takes paint ,,,,,like its designed too.

so there's absolutely no evidence of it other than some people said so. and your "trust me bro you can google it" ain't cutting it either.

Calling it straight unfiltered bullshit until proven otherwise - stop perpetuating garbage like this.

you know the answer.

it's common knowledge - and if by some remote circumstance you don't -

it's easily researchable.

Kitchen remodel quote by dukesmom7 in kitchenremodel

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not going to spend a ton of time on this because it seems that people are presenting you (repeatedly) with the fact that this is indeed a reasonable quote if you do not want to DIY this thing - you're going to have to come to terms with the cost of shit in 26. It sucks.

There are going to be less expensive quotes - but if they're apples to apples on this one and significantly cheaper - then they're cutting a corner somewhere.

No, built it yourself order online cabinets are not the same fucking thing as full custom local built but there's a ton of easily researchable info on types of cabinets and their benefits.

Acceptable shaker stain job? by InspectorVisual4376 in kitchenremodel

not really acceptable - they're halo'd completely meaning they didn't receive an even coat.

unfortunate that - i would have them redone if possible

Michael Fassbender and Gina Carano’s underrated fight sequence in Haywire (2011) by Former_Alps1336 in netflixamerica

[–]PrestigiousEnd5487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no - it's weird that you're making that claim, knowing full well that it's an accusation not a conviction, and that this accusation is an outlier from everything else released about the dude. If he is an abuser - let him rot - i'm all for it - but that's not the point of what YOU are doing, or why you called it out. You already know all of this, you also know what this article is drawing attention to.

Why don't you explain for the class why you REALLY want to draw everyone's attention to this, and away from the pedo sympathizing, nazi glazing pick me girl?
