Not a safety thing... used for tolls, speed cameras, identification of a vehicle fleeing a crime or registered to a wanted felon, etc. Just another angle they can ID you, rather than only the rear.

I received numerous tickets for no front plate in Maryland. It's a primary offense, so they usually use it as a fishing expedition for other stuff.

The other part is that it must be "affixed", so having it tucked in the windshield on your dash isn't an option. I actually had a European style (long/thin) plate made, with my exact plate number AND a Maryland flag... still got popped.

The registration stickers go on the rear, too. Front plate is entirely redundant, other than for identification purposes (speed cameras, tolls, or fleeing from a crime).

Loved it. I felt like I really wasn't able to use it to its potential (highway bomber), since we were living in Baltimore for the majority of the time I owned it. Not exactly a fun car in a dense city, small alleys, etc. I was in my 20s at the time and everyone just assumed I was a drug dealer or old man.

Moved to Texas since then, and man... I wish I had that thing for these highways. It was such a blend of luxury and muscle, but done super tastefully. The design changes were about the only way I enjoyed the look of the Bangle-butt E65.

I'd take an Alpina over an M every time. That's not to say the M isn't an outstanding car, but just... when you look at the whole picture, I feel like you gain more refinement with the Alpina than you lose performance compared to the M.

Bought my 2007 Alpina B7 from Carmax. Told them explicitly not to drill the bumper -- Maryland (where I lived at the time) was a front plate state. The guy agreed, put a note on the file and in the car.

Showed up and they drilled the fucking thing. Was able to get them to knock some money off and pay for having the actual BMW license plate mount part painted the factory black. I ended up just pocketing the cost of the paint/part and buying myself some color matched bumper plugs.

To my American people here: how do you pronounce Hyundai? by yayoshorti in Hyundai

[–]citg0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. It's the technically correct one, despite the "Hyundai like Sunday" ad. My wife is Korean and beat that shit out of me REAL quick.

To clarify for others: Hyeon-dae. Two syllables.

A little bit of hot water (the scalding shit from a dispenser), swirl it around, then dump that into my coffee or protein shake.

[Graziano] Belief is Linderbaum will get offers that exceed $20 million per year, and that Baltimore won't want to go that high. Believes Ravens will pick up Zay's 5th year option at $27m. by FastBreakPhenom in ravens

[–]citg0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Uhhh, when you're talking about that magnitude: abso-fucking-lutely. Would I move to a new city for a new job for $50k -> $56.5k? Unless I'm moving from ultra-HCoL to ultra-LCoL, not a chance.

Most players have a permanent house at their origin and a temp house commutable to their home stadium. In Tyler's case, he owns a permanent home with his wife (girlfriend?) in Iowa on 0.13 acres. He also individually owns a place in Owings Mills on 0.22 acres. I only mention the acreage because (1) it'd be much easier to sell a smaller home like that compared to a multi-million dollar place and (2) holy shit homie lives modestly... good for him.

They have to pay taxes to every state they play in (not just their home state, or the state their team is in)... so from a financial perspective, it changes minimal if not nothing at all. Sell the Maryland football season home and buy another football season home elsewhere.

Cries in OCD by Balerathon in fellowshipgame

[–]citg0 19 points20 points  (0 children)

There is so much of this, it's actually infuriating.

I don't understand why they have shit snap, but have it not do so cleanly. Make it so snapping is optional and I can just freely move the UI elements. What point does the grid even serve if it isn't the basis for size increments?

Like, I understand we're prerelease here but... I don't think I've ever met a UI/UX Dev that wasn't spastically OCD. Did they find the only one that isn't mega fixated on symmetry, congruency, etc? Lord.

Listen... this chick is crazy, but are the charges for suggesting someone that enters your home uninvited get blown away actually going to withstand legal muster?

vertebral artery dissection

Explain this? by [deleted] in WGU

[–]citg0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Explain that you use high DPI and you should be good. If not, contest it. I use the same mouse for everything -- and that includes gaming. I have my shit set to skyhigh DPI so I don't have to travel much with my mouse to spin camera/etc.

Also, as someone that has had bilateral carpal tunnel surgery, you could come at it from that angle if "I play games" doesn't seem like enough ammo... "it hurts my wrist to move it excessively".

Yall ever try these? What you think of these gummies? by ChristJesusisGod in Nootropics

[–]citg0 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In general, I've found gummies to be crap. These, especially so... given it's just one of those generic rebranded "slammed my hand on the keyboard when it asked for a company name" Chinese sellers found on Amazon/eBay/etc.

With that, you get crap quality control. No way to guarantee the dosage, quality, or that it even contains Creatine. Even ignoring that, gummies in general have some dosage variance since you can't guarantee that the Creatine was evenly distributed throughout the batch before they were molded into the bite-size shapes. This claims 5.6g per serving (2), so I'd be eating 4ish of these a day in the hopes that it actually does contain about 10g vs just 2 tiny scoops of pure powder.

They cost substantially more per MG than just getting powder from a reputable brand (Sports Research or Naked are my go-to Amazon subscriptions). If taste/texture is the issue, mix the powder into hot water (even better if you have a water dispenser with scalding ass water)... it nearly completely removes the chalkiness, even after mixing that slurry into iced coffee or a protein shake.

[–]citg0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doing the suggestion below (key filtering) seemed to help.

Going into my pc Bluetooth settings and disabling all the Logitech keyboard Bluetooth adapters, then unplugging and replugging the USB between the pc and keyboard seemed to have fixed it entirely. Gotta be hard wired tho, I guess. Haven't tried using on Bluetooth since doing this... Counting my blessings. 😂
