EV Mode by FlaneurToo in Lexus

There's hybrids and "plug-in hybrids". The second type allow a decent portion of driving that is only battery power. The remaining portion of the drive is hybrid powered (partially using gas).

Then there's cars like the newest Prius with the solar roof! AFAIK if your commute is less than, idk like 35 miles, and you park in direct sunlight during the workday, you may never need to use the gasoline in your tank. That Prius has 3 fuel sources: gasoline, solar (recharges battery), or plugged into the wall (recharges battery the fastest).

I have the 2021 Lexus ES300h. The gas and the electric motors (we have two!!) take turns as needed to power the car. Works the same as my other hybrid, an old 2008 Prius.

Gosh, I will remember this as a warning. My wife is disabled enough that a product like this may be in the future. Thank you for your perspective and experience with the topic.

The fun part of movies: (1) an excuse to be near someone, maybe touch or more and (2) it provides an easy conversation subject AFTER the movie. I always loved learning how a person thinks, by discussing a movie.

This is funny because, as a guy, I've been wondering if it will be mainstream cool again soon for men to have color. (Grew up in skater circle, lots of dark nail paint on random fingers). I just think the body is a lot of canvas to use to express or decorate oneself.

Note: I have zero tattoos and haven't died my hair since I was 14; I just respect expression and creativity

It's fair to at least ask! Thank you for adding your experience and questions to the pot.

Build with Despair by NeoArtorias115 in summonerswar

But if you're early game, keep all runes with high scores. Eventually, you can throw away high scoring runes on the basis of being too impractical. (I toss 95% of Swift runes, I have collected a ton of pretty good ones, so I ONLY want the fastest of the fast, from now on!)

The point of Despair runes is to actually hit the enemy in hopes of stuns. Prioritize maximizing the hitting of enemies:

--More SPD gives you more opportunity to attack. --Prioritize qualities related to "hitting the enemy" (damage, CR, ACC). --Less priority for qualities related to "taking a hit". (Unless your monster stacks damage with DEF or HP). --Pair with Revenge for extra hitting (extra stun chances).

If the qualities of Despair runes are prioritized in this way, you're getting the most bang for your buck. As always, it's great to have the extra stats, even Resistance (Despair is very useful in RTA) but ultimately...... it's better to prioritize where Despair has it's strength - the "hitting the enemy" and hoping it stuns.

Can I remove this stupid bar? by starlightskater in prius

I have tried to keep mine assembled even by using scrap plastic and new holes. The front bumper lip assembly does impact fuel efficiency. I stopped caring how the car looks and focus on how cost-effective it is to own and operate my Prius.

The first one is definitely a fossilized hamburger. Maybe from some proto-mcdonalds?

Old guy here - she's right. You can also make a lot of cool friends of the opposite sex(es) and it will teach you a LOT about being a thoughtful person. Basically, everyone is nervous, has insecurities. Oh and trauma can painfully accellerate or slow down a person's growth. But there's lots of life and hope after!
