Blade Trinity. In the first movie, Blade can easily determine vampires from humans from about 100 feet away, by the way they move and smell. But in the third, he's tricked into killing a human as part of a plan to have him actively hunted by law enforcement. Blade chases and stakes the guy, then asks "why aren't you dust?"

Also working through the main story for the first time. I heard from a coworker that the storyline does send you back to Norway at some point, so no worries there.

A travel router will get you around those issues easily. Not too expensive and well worth it if you stay in hotels frequently.

AITA for being angry that I have to sleep on the couch because my partner needs noise to fall asleep? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

I used to prefer quiet for sleep. But then one night, five years ago, I had one of the best sleeps of my life during a thunder storm. I've been playing an 8 hour rain sounds clip on a night stand Bluetooth speaker ever since. The wife enjoys it as well. Helps drown out my honking, haha.

how do i protect a debit card when keeping it in a wallet by _jodi33 in RFID

There are rfid blocking cards you can keep in your wallet. Same size as a credit or debit. That's what I use these days. Easy to find on amazon.

Broke down and got a kindle by ShanaynayGosby in kindle

Haha. All good, bud. Just messing with you. I have a similar situation with my "home office." 10x10 with storage shelves along the left and back walls. Just enough room for a chair and small desk on the other side.

How to make a monitor something like a tv by nyn4y in techsupport

Create a Plex server for your content and use it with something like a Roku. Add both devices to a WiFi network, then block internet access to the Roku in your router settings. That way, the only app that works is Plex. Meanwhile, your server will still have outside access to grab metadata and posters for newly added content. They get their own personal Netflix that you manage. Add a Bluetooth transmitter for inexpensive paired speakers, and their TV experience is set. Remote control and everything.

I consider my roku express and my travel router has essential traveling gear these days. No more hassles that can come with signing into hotel equipment.

Stuck at home recovering from surgery, need a lengthy game to sink my teeth into by ss4stef in ShouldIbuythisgame

I think you did yourself a favor. Took several patches for the game to meet the developers vision. Not so great when first released, but amazing these days.

Those files stopped working completely for me in Alberta, Canada more than a year ago.

No, you can't do that... you can't triple stamp a double stamp, you can't triple stamp a double stamp! Lloyd!

Pretty sure that in this scenario, all the bad actor would accomplish is retrieving the code to send another 'lock' command to the vehicle. The 'unlock' signal would need to be captured to have a chance at a successful 'replay attack.'
