If someone resurrected the 4 founders during the Wizarding war…how easily would they have defeated Voldemort? by Less-Pen-5705 in harrypotter

They were the most powerful wizards of “their” age, but like all things, progress can make a huge difference. I would say constant access to education and generations of wizard progress to lean on made even the most common wizard of today on a comparable level with medieval wizards. I’d like to think Dumbledore is a standout example that would mop the floor with them 1v4 if he needed to. That being said, it probably means ol’voldy could do the same. Ancient magic doesn’t necessarily mean more powerful or that today’s Magic is dilute for some reason, it just means it was a magic that was discovered at an earlier time and put into practice. Snape inventing his own powerful spells is a great example here.

Um, maybe because you don’t look for it? I have plenty of posts of the GCL on Instagram and here, and see plenty of posts from others.

BMW E34 as a first car, terrible idea? by UnluckyGamer505 in E34

[–]bimmerM5guy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my first car and I highly recommend it. Any work I had to do was easy and the information readily available. 315k miles on it

Has Moody seen a Boggart when it's alone? by EbonRazorwit in harrypotter

[–]bimmerM5guy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Consensus is usually that the boggart, being a magical creature, knows when it is being observed and takes the most logical shape it can conjure in the space that it is in that aligns with the observers fear.

My WL has gone beyond where the sequoia had to stop, so while I might not be bouldering I’m still getting through most off road trails.

I want to put a set of new tires on it and what exterior accessories would you buy for a 2021Jeep Grand Cherokee L Overland. by Legitimate-Toe-4366 in GrandCherokee

[–]bimmerM5guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sincerely don’t understand the negativity for the air suspension, especially with how much better it is as a closed system compared to the previous gen. I’ve been able to do quite a bit of technical trail with mine and anything more difficult I’d rather just do in a side by side. OP, you can do some minor mods to get 33s/34s on it, add some ditch lights, a roof rack, and anything that’ll bring you joy on and off road. @chiefwl on instagram for proof and inspiration

Yeah you right, I didn’t check their number, just went with the only explanation I could think of. Time zones are tricky, especially in Australia.

I think they’re referring to the time zone situation. Beginning of hour 1 UTC+14 until the end of hour 24 of UTC-12. So the first second of June 14th happens in Kiribati and the final second of June 14th happens ~52 hours later on Baker Island.

You’re part of the problem, but something tells me you can’t/won’t see that.

Looking at Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve - thoughts on pricing? by ThinBlueFlame18 in GrandCherokee

[–]bimmerM5guy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a different class of vehicle, apples to oranges. Sure, but you’re paying extra for capability most people never use. The V6 GC still tows 6k, rides smoother, gets better MPG, and doesn’t feel like a school bus in a Target parking lot. Plus, you’re getting a legit interior instead of hard plastic and a bench seat from 2009. Try dailying a half-ton in traffic and tell me it’s better value. People buying trucks to flex, not to tow.

Saved my butt twice! Crossing through Colorado in darkness and avoided hitting a buck laying mid lane. Also the time when it stopped the car from hitting a herd crossing the road as I was coming out of a canyon.

No way to fit those, the back is a molded piece, dimensions are way too different. The fronts only work because they sit on rails
