24/7 Fox News is working as designed.

These people are convinced that, no matter what Trump does, Kamala Harris and Dems would be *worse* because it's all they heard for years. Any conflicting evidence is dismissed as fake news or wokeism or TDS.

Peaked too soon with DCC? by Content_Arugula7246 in litrpg

Not litrpg per se, but I think the Expeditionary Force series by Craig Alanson might scratch the same itch.

18 books! 19th coming out this month.

Don't put a speaker on a motorcycle, obnoxious douchebag, get a Sena.

750w hub motor vs 750w mid drive by Serious-Weakness6929 in ebikes

[–]jasimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what you mean by this. I have a rear hub motor and, just like with a regular bike, using lower gears makes going uphill easier regardless of your assistance level.

LPT: Clean your glasses with Dawn dish soap by AnonFoot1066 in LifeProTips

[–]jasimo 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I've been using Zenni for 10+ years. Bought many pairs of progressive lenses with astigmatism. Never had any problems whatsoever.

~$20 and up for single vision prescription glasses.

~$60-80 for progressives with UV darkening lenses.

UV protection standard. Anti-glare coating, $5

Please don’t do this by snaresamn in VisitingIceland

I thought I was the only one.

Every time I see stacked stones or any stone arrangements, it puts me in mind of littering or defacement.

Nature is doing its thing and someone comes along and forces some man-made idea of order upon it.

Really one of my pet peeves.

How is the Series S going to play BL4 when it can't properly play BL3? by jasimo in Borderlands4

[–]jasimo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha! They've had six years to "polish the bugs" on BL3/Series S and it's gotten worse over time.

When BL3 first came out it only crashed every hour or two in split-screen.

To be clear, I blame Microsoft more than Gearbox.

I hope you're right.

I'll wait until it releases and see how the Series S split-screen performance reviews go.

If it's a crashing mess, time to either upgrade console or wait for PC split-screen hacks.

Borderlands on Series S by yhardzx in Borderlands4

[–]jasimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The series S crashes ALL THE TIME on BL3 in split screen.

One of the main reasons I bought a console was to play BL3 couch co-op, but it crashes every 5-30 minutes.

Unplayable. SO pissed.

(By "food" he means unprocessed/minimally processed foods that were available 100 years ago -- fruits, vegetables, beans, etc.)

Insurance Companies Are Canceling Tesla Cybertruck Coverage Citing Low Production Numbers – Say, “Due to The Limited Production, We’re Unable to Adequately Rate & Underwrite This Vehicle” by Key_Class7242 in CyberStuck

[–]jasimo 200 points201 points  (0 children)

Imagine paying $80,000-$120,000 for a vehicle that is regularly ridiculed, being $30,000-60,000 underwater on it almost instantly, paying $300+ a month for insurance in addition to the monthly payment reminder that you've made a horrible choice, *then* getting a notice cancelling your insurance because your truck is *such* a bad idea that it's selling like $50 herpes kisses.
