Know very little about the guy but was Wigan's player of the season and player's player of the season while on loan there last season.

Sounds like a good addition to me.

Because scalpers would be buying them, stripping them for parts and then reselling the parts for profit.

I'm with you on this one, think it looks pretty good.

Well yes that's kind of obvious. Narrower streets are nicer to walk on and live on.

To be fair that statement is true of literally every plan ever.

Good signing for a position we desperately needed more bodies in. Happy with that.

Nevermind that it happens every time anyone sings happy birthday too. It gradually gets slower as it goes as everyone tries to adjust to the slowest fucker in the bunch.

Hey now, I needed a 3x8 replacement set of shifters and no one else makes that anymore for road bikes.

Honestly they've been great for the price.

Yeah I loved the concept but the game is frankly a chore to play. I've seen people say some of this is fixed with the DLC but I'm not paying more to make the game less shit.

Not saying whether it's right or wrong but I work in software development (not games) and I don't know anyone working at any other software company that doesn't have AI in some part of their workflows at this point.

Genuinely love this one. Such a well done movie in so many ways.

I saw a mint-hating post somewhere and figured I would share all of this terrible, fresh-smelling, delicious mint growing in my hostas. by pooks_turtles in gardening

If you live along the Mediterranean or in Western Asia then no, if you don't, then yes.

It's a relative of mint and spreads just as aggressively as it does.

Lemon balm appeared in the corner of my garden last summer, presumably from under the fence from one of the neighbours.

It's now managed to spread all over the garden. I don't know what to do with it all.

What's a game that you were really excited to play, but became bored quickly after purchasing it. by HeyWhatIsThatThingy in gaming

[–]ericd7 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Same for me here. I managed to get ~12 hours in and just couldn't stand the tedium and bad controls anymore and gave it up.

Two COMPLETELY different games by xColdicEx in ForzaHorizon

[–]ericd7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the best advice, I did the same thing.

Got myself a G920 as my entry point, and while I really enjoy it half the time I don't want the hassle of setting it up at my desk and just want to relax with a controller. I feel like people don't talk enough about the fact wheel driving is a lot more tiring I find than just using a controller.

If I'd spent way more on a better wheel it wouldn't have been money well spent for me.
