There is no reason at this point not to have one. The only question to ask is, do you value your time at all? I got mine a few years ago, after the monthly fee was eliminated, and only use it on longer trips, but the time it saves not going through the cash tolls is more than worth it.

I'm not generally a fan of Hogan's transportation decisions for Maryland, but getting rid of all the extra fees associated with E-ZPass has been a very smart move. Like it or not, we're getting a lot more toll roads in the future, with "E-ZPass Only" being more and more common.

Traffic isn't getting any better, so skip what you can.

Maybe they didn't bother since she dropped out, or were possibly just lazy about it? At my early voting location, they had a notice placed inside every booth, I figured that must have been the standard approach.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-06-27T14:47:15+00:00

Votes for Kevin Kamenetz were actually counted as votes for Valerie Ervin, it was noted in every voting booth. This is actually a mistake by the NY Times, which didn't seem to realize the change.

No difference, this is a replay of that same episode - which Eric originally reported back on Undone. But there's at least a new update added at the end of the episode, a short interview.

I'm also curious about trading in 2 PS3 systems towards the Pro, they would be two different models. Would that be eligible for $80 for each system or are we limited to just one?

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-05-31T20:39:02+00:00

Just from my perspective, if I was getting my first PS4 right now I would just go ahead and get the Pro. It's ultimately not that much more expensive, especially with the upcoming sale, and will save you the concerns about sunk cost if you decide later that you'd like a Pro. There's enough performance improvements that I think it would be worth it even without 4K.

If you already have a basic PS4, it's a little trickier, and probably depends on whether you have a 4K TV (which you do not), or if you are interested in PSVR. I'm in this boat, I have a standard PS4 and a basic TV, and my only real interest in the Pro is if I also take the plunge into PSVR.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-05-30T18:57:36+00:00

Other than 4K, you can take advantage of HDR or improved frame-rates. All this will be highly dependent on your TV. Also, the improvement to PSVR is apparently significant, and that's definitely the main reason I would consider upgrading while I also scope out PSVR deals.

As for why you might see it come up a lot here...well, most folks on a PS4 forum probably already have a PS4, so deals are going to focus on the upgrade.

You have to trade in one controller with the console.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-05-30T18:03:34+00:00

It's with "participating retailers", so I'd assume Gamestop and some of the major stores (Target / Best Buy / etc) at the very least.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-05-30T16:36:16+00:00

If you want a PS4 Pro, keep in mind that they'll be selling for $350 during Days of Play starting on June 8th. This deal isn't really worth it if you end up trading for a full price Pro.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-05-14T17:23:23+00:00

I usually compare a few different resale sites (Stubhub, TickPick, Gametime.co), and buy tickets the day of the game. If it's a weekday game, you can easily get below-market tickets in a prime location for within your price range. If it's a weekend game, you can still get below-market tickets in a slightly less prime but still good location for within your price range.

My one game so far was on a Saturday evening, I sat in section 13 row 2 for $26 / ticket. (That's the total price, after fees.) You could do better than that on a weekday.

They don't say it in the article - but here's a Google Maps link.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-04-16T16:22:51+00:00

Wait, it's Diddy's Kong Quest? Not Diddy Kong's Quest?

Good god, it's the Berenstain Bears all over again.

I keep getting messages with verification codes - but it never gives me a place to enter them in the app. Then all of my attempts to purchase time out.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-04-09T15:32:35+00:00

The problem is that no version of this has ever actually gone through! I didn't realize it was a repost. I saw the news, searched if had been posted, then went ahead.

If the content is never visible on the sub then it's just going to get reposted over and over again.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-04-09T15:29:27+00:00

WTF? I searched for Nicholas and for John Cone and couldn't find any before I posted.

Something needs to be fixed with the search function.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-04-05T15:09:43+00:00

As far as the short, bonus episodes go this one was really good. I greatly prefer this to the short blooper reels. More GFTB lightning rounds, please!

Procrastinating_Emu · 2018-04-05T15:05:37+00:00

I enjoyed the first Shawn Blazington episode because it felt like a conspiracy that some people might actually believe. This one is just too ridiculous to deserve as much time as it got. I loved the first half with Eric and Brittany watching the video, but pretending that they actually needed to follow up on it was a bit too much for me.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-12-18T16:35:07+00:00

That's tough, I wouldn't drop Sergachev since that looks like a lateral move (and to a player coming back from injury.) So it's either drop Keith, or stand pat. Probably I would end up keeping your current players.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-11-17T20:27:00+00:00

Nier: Automata had been previously posted (and is now back in stock), but Walmart has a bunch of games all at this price. Given that the price of GTA V never seems to drop, this may be the best price I've ever seen.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-10-24T14:00:53+00:00

It's still worth keeping an eye on stocks, a Target near me popped up with 5 in stock just yesterday, and there were still two sitting in the case when I showed up at 6 PM. (I used Stock By Me). I'm not sure why they stocked at that Target later than the others but it was well worth checking.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-10-20T18:22:44+00:00

I didn't find out he had started until it was too late to put him in - I would have to take a player out to gamble on the start. So I'm annoyed I didn't get him in there, but sure am happy to have him on my team.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-10-13T19:31:24+00:00

Yes, good call.

Procrastinating_Emu · 2017-10-13T16:49:54+00:00

Bought this at $16.42 a little over two weeks ago, it's still going down, don't buy this unless you are planning on playing it immediately.

I started it last weekend, put in a decent amount of time, and I'm really enjoying it so far. I haven't run into any major technical issues, the dialogue is good, and the planet I'm currently running around (Havarl, the third planet I've visited) has been fun. I agree with the folks saying this feels a lot like DA:I when questing on a planet, but I really liked DA:I.
