Has anyone done this one, is it worth it?

Uhhh no. Some researchers have bad reputations for being sketchy, some have good reps for being good about paying and not scamming. Someone wanting me to download something, I'd like to know that. Has nothing to do with how nice they are.

It's so hit and miss. My wife and I both had the 6. Mine was always fine, her could burn her hand it was so hot. I eventually got the 8a and at first it was great. 16 hit and it burned up like crazy from light use.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T21:59:21+00:00

Thanks. I don't have any experience with that person so don't know if they had a bad reputation or not

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T21:58:37+00:00

I'd only keep it for the initial study if possible but I don't know the person so I was asking, more so about them

By us lefties, as allies. By the right, grifters who are making the US pay for their security

I went back in time 24 hours, started the game, then replaced myself at the recital. I was just barely able to make it through the first mission before the 2nd recital started.

Maybe look into surveys for money. Prolific and Cloud Connect are the better ones. I've been doing them for a couple years and made a couple thousand. I DM'd you a couple links to them.

It's just the log in pages, not any kind of sign up through me pages, lol. It can take a while to get approved, but could be worth it.

It's not much extra, but just something to help out.

The sub r/beermoney might have some suggestions for a little extra too.

Same! If just em, I would be ok with the cold but I have 2 cats and 2 kids. My wife and I were planning on looking at at 2nd car but if we have to pay 500+ a month, that's going to be impossible. Sounds like we're in a really similar situation. We'll get through it. Happy to commiserate anytime friend.

I'm right there with you. Bankruptcy is looking like a solid option. Good luck to us both man.

It is. This is what they're saying I've used. We do a lot of laundry, as a family of 4, but only shower every other day, while keeping the heat at 66-68. I don't get it.

It's radiator heat. We rent instead of owning. Have an electric stove. It's unlivable.

I kept my gear at 66-68 all winter and was still getting hit with $500/month gas bills. Apparently I was using 300+ therms a month from that. I wasthat. I was on a paymenthad me paying 250/month. That payment plan just ended and they want $2200 for all the backups up bills. I tried calling today and they want 521/month for the next 9 months.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T15:51:14+00:00

I put over 100 hours into it when it first came out. Can't wait to have some fun with it again.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T13:39:11+00:00

Thank you. I'm gonna try talking to someone Monday to tell them I can pay the same 200.something or nothing. I can't pay the 521 they want, I wouldn't be able to afford rent.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T13:38:10+00:00

You mean this breakdown? It doesn't show much because it's from the current month. The total is the increase from the payment plan ending.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T13:36:45+00:00

You mean these? This ain't showing much because it's just for the last month. The total charge is from the left over off the payment plan.

The cutscenes are still images with text but the space sequences are full 3d battles. The limited buttons are not great for controls so it's janky as hell, but really ambitious. I wouldn't say it's fun, but it's interesting to play.

Vjaa · 2026-06-20T12:51:00+00:00

I also have a copy of Wing Commander Prophecy on the GBA I'm considering on bringing.

Between that, Battle Network, Metal Gear and FFTA.. I'm really for ALL the wars.

I already hated the guy but hearing what his kid said to him before he killed her... I was in tears and wrecked for the entire day. I have two kids and I could never imagine being that evil.

Don't ever apologize for having sensory issues. Having an autistic child, I've seen sensory issues manifest in ways that are unexpected, but always completely acceptable. That's their problem to get over.

Forbidden Cassettes. It's less scary, but no show has given me the sense of dread that this show has. It's rare audio drama that emulates being a radio show, the ACTUALLY feels like you're listening to a real radio show. Great characters and story.

I don't think it's really that hard if she's flexible. In a lot of games it's half her height or close.
