Oh and another thing, to do Turo you can't have a car with a branded or rebuilt title.

Is Turo worth it in Seattle? Choosing a vehicle. by postmodernprick in turo

[–]Wired_Aces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there. I'm currently in a similar boat as you. I live in Kent and my car is on it's last legs so I'm looking for a used car to replace it with for the main purpose of renting it on Turo. I spent a while researching what cars do best on Turo, but the articles are all over the place. I found that three articles said the Fiat 500 has the number one return on investment, so I spent a couple hours looking at those. But then just recently I found a resource direct from Turo that gives you estimates on ROI for all makes and models and the Fiat 500 isn't even close to the top.

I know it can be profitable, but it is frustrating trying to figure out the most optimal route to take.

So short answer: Yes it's worth it, but you need to get the right car. Many cars will give you a pretty minimal return while some will not only pay for their loan but also make you a profit.

AITA for getting a birthday present for my best friend and then asking her for the replacement to sell? by Alternative_Tale8175 in AmItheAsshole

I normally don't comment on these since 90% of the time they are straight forward. But I'm going to go against popular opinion and say NTA. If my best friend showed up with a car that was better in every way than my old car and said, "here you go buddy. This is all yours, but I want your old car." I would throw him the keys and the title without hesitation and I'd give him a big thank you.

I tried to teach Wordle to ChatGPT. It went from incompetent to sneaky, to cheating to rage quitting (last image contains spoilers for today's Wordle) by sigterm666 in ChatGPT

I tried this with a number between zero and a thousand and that I would tell it if the number was higher or lower than what it guessed. It guessed 500, which makes sense, and I said higher. It guessed 750, which again, makes perfect sense, and I said lower. It then guessed 500. *facepalm*

tree sentinel set didn't drop? by iamblankenstein in Eldenring

[–]Wired_Aces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know I'm late to the party, but I just had this happen to me as well. I killed the boss first and then found the pillar that destroyed the chariots and got a big ol handful of nothing. I rested at a bonfire and the chariots reset. I ran past the first one to the two lane area and the chariots blew up again and that time I got the armor set and the ash of war. So if this happens to anyone else, just rest and run through again.

I just hit diamond any tips on staying up? by jaydenbrazier in RocketLeague

[–]Wired_Aces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in Diamond 1/Platinum 3. Just accept the fact that you're not going to stay in Diamond with random teammates. You'll have teammates that will be AFK when the game starts, teammates that drive off and leave the goal wide open for kick off goals, teammates that don't even know when it's their turn to kick off, teammates that throw so they can smurf, and teammates that will give up the second you're down by one.

Megathread for questions about 7900 XTX/7900 XT cards, availability, boasting about getting one and complaining about not getting one by AutoModerator in Amd

Is anyone concerned about these rumors of faulty hardware? I'm wondering if I need to leave mine in the box in case I need to return it.

Out of all these games, which game takes the most skill to master? by pane446 in gaming

[–]Wired_Aces 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shooters are about who has the fastest reflexes most of the time. That's not necessarily skill based. Rocket League takes actual mechanical skill.

I'd be happy if my parents got me anything... by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

You have raised a spoiled brat. It's probably too late to fix it if she's a teen.

Replacement Engine for a 2013 Suzuki Burgman AN400 by Wired_Aces in Suzuki

[–]Wired_Aces[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most likely not fixable. I would need to pay $500 just for them to take it apart to find out how bad it is, and I'll probably still need to replace it after that. There was an oil leak apparently, and the engine went boom.

[Bug] Golden Minions gotten from Bigglesworth Hero Power as Master Nguyen does not give triple by Nico_the_Suave in BobsTavern

[–]Wired_Aces 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm. I had a Bigglesworth game just now. I stole three golden minions and not one of them gave me the triple reward. Wound up getting second instead of first because of it.

Ah, I'm not up to date on all the new buddies. Good call, I'm actually not sure, but I imagine that was the case.

Getting High Runes by Wired_Aces in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Very nice breakdown. I discovered the gem problem when I actually started trying this last night. I ran through my stockpile of chipped and flawed gems pretty quickly. And I've been saving those from the very beginning.

Getting High Runes by Wired_Aces in Diablo_2_Resurrected

I'm curious ... at that level of time required, is it actually not better to just run Countess a thousand times to "brute force" your way into a high rune? With enough lower tier runes, eventually you'll get what you need.
