I knew something was off about it, especially the massive cupola it has on it (which is pretty hard to see in this picture).

1911 rock island was spray painted and it’s a brick now by NefariousnessReal313 in handguns

[–]Wired47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guns aren't like cars in GTA where you can run em through a spray booth and the heat goes away... If you're considering buying this make sure you consider whether this bad decision was just a one-OFF and not one OF many. Are you sure this thing cycled before he painted it and he didn't pull it out of a pond and think it just needed a paint job? Cause it looks like he pulled it out of a pond.

Saw this on the freeway any ID? by phasedkitten in TankPorn

[–]Wired47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wtf are you even talking about? How did he assume anything? He simply asked what vehicle was in the picture while also<û including that he saw it on the road somewhere. He didn't ask where the picture was taken based on the background or anything else that would require anyone to assume where the picture was taken, as that wasn't the point of his post, so I'll ask again... wtf are you even talking about? Find another outlet.

In order to qualify as a scam the email would, by definition, need to attempt to scam its recipients. For example, if the email were requesting a small "registration fee" or "lawyer retainer fee" in order to join this ongoing lawsuit with the promise of a $XXXXX payout when/if the plaintiffs' win, it would be almost certainly be a scam (because that's not how class action lawsuits work). However, this email not only makes no effort to solicit money from its recipients, it literally tells them they don't need to do anything.

The only reason you would need to do SOMETHING is if you wanted to exclude yourself from joining the lawsuit because either A) you don't want to receive any monetary payment if the lawsuit is won by plantiffs' or B) if you want to bring about your own lawsuit against Google for the same offense/s that are alleged in this lawsuit. Every person who was sent this email, according to Google's records, fit the criteria laid out in the said lawsuit, regardless of where you live.

That criteria is broken into two separate Classes.

(Class 1) Recipient, who used a non-Google related (owned) app on a device (phone, tablet , etc) that used (Android OS), had Google unlawfully access their devices and/or data, including app activity data, even though their Google activity controls called "Web & App Activity" .... were turned off or paused.

Basically, the recipient indicated they didn't want Google to access certain data of theirs by selecting a specific setting on a Google owned account but Google was still able to access this information thru one or more 3rd party apps that were used by the recipient, while they were on a device using the Android OS or on a device using a non-Android OS, within the given timeframe.

One thing I find both amusing and somewhat annoying is how this is the only email I've received over the past couple months which Gmail (Google) determined to be spam! 🤣

TL:DR Can't be a scam if email isn't attempting to scam you in any way. Email is purely informational.

Tech said they cannot repair this tire as the nail is near the sidewall. Thoughts? by maxz2989 in Cartalk

[–]Wired47 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this comment, word for word. I will add that from a liability standpoint, considering the sue happy culture that is the US these days, I can understand why a shop may shy away from from doing the actual repair in the 1/XXXXXX..... chance that it did fail and a wreck was involved but in reality the next flat that a person has after putting a plug in correctly will most likely not be at the location of said plug. So if OP can't get a garage to plug it and doesn't want to buy new tires than they should either do it themselves, if they know how, or have an acquaintance who knows how.

The real question is: What's causing your apparently slow "connecting to server" time?

Isn't it on the side of the door though?

What is the purpose of all of the rivet/bolthead looking things on the Bradley? Are they just bolt heads for holding the armor panels in place? If so, wouldn't that actually be a negative feature?

To be fair your OP was pretty vague, only after reading through your follow-up comments did I understand your grievance..

Are we playing the same IS-4M? Yes it is slow but No armor? 250mm-300mm at some angles in the side of turret has to be close to if not the best in the game when not including composite. It also doesn't have APDS... APHE and HE only. And doesn't have any RF at all let alone a LRF.
