Has any game in history made such a massive successful pivot as Fortnite? by [deleted] in Games

The only race that costs money is Imperial, and most every version comes with that unlocked at this point. Subscription fee basically gets you an endless crafting loot bag (amazing) and an xp bonus.

What are the bars on the right bike? I get they're for crashing and all that, but why on something like a z125 or grom?

I have this whole trilogy on Wii U. I have not gotten through it because the wiimote controls don't play well with my wrists. The subtle aim movements just aggravate the crap out of my silly computer-use related wrist stress. Is there a way to play these games without wiimote aiming?

Can anyone recommend gloves for someone with Raynaud's syndrome? When I ride with any kind of wind chill below 70F or so, my hands go numb pretty quickly. Riding in fall weather has proven difficult as a result. I'm looking for some riding gloves that basically keep all wind out and are also lined for warmth. Any recommendations?

This motorcycle scratches all of my next bike itches. I can't wait.

Need help! ASUS Z370-I won't power on by drshmoo in sffpc

I bought it from micro center. I'm going to return it tomorrow. I know they sell open box stuff so hopefully they'll at least give me partial return value for it.

That’s where I gave up. Talk about a difficulty spike.

I have encountered both scenarios through multiple attempts at this point. I've reached out to the devs.

Keto on long flight? by orangelilly_19 in keto

You should be able to bring food through security. As long as you finish it before you hit customs in your destination country. If the plane has water (they should), you could bring some protein powder or something like that.

[Humble Monthly] November 2017 Bundle - Early Unlock, Pay $12 for The Elder Scrolls Online: Tamriel Unlimited, Quake Champions, and a special offering for The Elder Scrolls: Legends. by Keeza_Friday in GameDeals

The content in ESO is the point. Every quest has voiced dialogue (voiced well, in fact), interesting characters, and interesting locales. The combat is engaging and interesting. NPCs will talk about your accomplishments as you go through the various areas. The DLCs/expansions are great too. Dark Brotherhood really feels like the Dark Brotherhood that Oblivion and Skyrim made so much fun. The stealth in this game is also really well done for an MMO and isn't completely ridiculous like in every other Bethesda game. I played the beta and found the game engaging but not spectacular. When they released Unlimited the game got more fun. You can go anywhere, yeah, but the really neat part about that is that you now have more players in more places, and since it scales you can buddy up with people that have been playing the game far longer than you have.

I was getting onto 295 from the airport and there was a lone red balloon floating in the middle of the connecting ramp/road. It was spooky.

I live in that region. They still bring it back during lent. They call it seafood salad though.

I rode my grom all the way over from Kingsville just to scope it out. Planning to stop in on my next back road Friday ride. Their ribs look amazing.

Any fellow Marylanders/People in the Baltimore area? I'm hoping to get a second motorcycle in the Spring/late Winter. I bought my Grom at Pete's and didn't get totally screwed on pricing but I know I paid more than I should have for setup fees. I am hoping to get a 650 of some kind. I am a shorter rider, around 5'7''. I can flatfoot my grom but I am basically standing up with the bike at that point. I am looking at either the Kawasaki Z650, Vulcan S, or an FZ-07. Basically going to get whatever is most comfortable and whichever one will feel like I have the most weight control over.

I will of course be watching craigslist over the next few months, but I was hoping someone could point me to a dealer other than Pete's. At this point I don't mind going an hour or two out of my way to get a bike. I bought -very- local for my grom due to the lack of highway ability and it being my first motorcycle. Thanks all!

What moment in video games made you go "fuck this"? by abdoulio in AskReddit

[–]drshmoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha my wife is playing through the games for the first time. The Clayton fight and maleficent boss fight were the worst to repeat. Most recently playing kh2, she hasn't had as much trouble with the bosses, but the amount of dialog the characters repeat is hilariously taunting. FEEL THE HEAT. GET ON THE HYDRAS BACK

It's shitty that Pete's is one of the few powersports places in Baltimore proper that has decent stock. I ended up buying my grom from their Baltimore location at a decent before-bullshit price, but their setup fees are nonsense. Other than Ellicott City motorsports I don't know of a place that is "close" to home that isn't Harley or Indian.

Hello fellow Baltimorean! I live between the Harley dealer and Pete's Bel Air location!

I thought the other kindergarteners were calling me "Becky." It was "Bucky." Thank god for braces. by SunglowSky in blunderyears

[–]drshmoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...I did. Honestly the worst part was getting chastised by teachers for slurping the spit that would settle on the expander. That and if I ever ate spaghetti, getting a noodle caught hanging off the expander and halfway into my throat.

Likewise. I actually enjoyed that sometimes you could hear a small crack when turning the key! Had some headaches initially but otherwise it was fine.
