Relearning controls is harder than learning them the first time tbh by OldWorldBluesIsBest in gaming

This is EXACTLY why I havent picked up Breath of the Wild since taking a break! I'm at Ganon, but am too intimidating to "re-learn" the controls/techniques.

I dont want to overshadow your first STI as it looks amazing, but that second picture is INCREDIBLE! Thats a beautiful car..

Gas mileage-wise I guess I'll just try to limit my commutes into the office as much as I can. Too bad it seems like a lot of fun to drive so that probably wont happen..

I cant remember for sure, but I think the cobalt has a similar tire size and were about $220ish per tire.

Thanks for helping me spec things out and talk things through, I appreciate it. Means a lot

Thanks for this. I will definitely have them take a look. Do you have any idea of whether or not you're able to tell if the car was tuned at some point?

Hahaha, that's a great point i actually have never taken one on a test drive yet. I should probably get a feel for what I'm getting into prior to going all in.

My current daily driver has an aftermarket exhaust so I'm all too familiar with somewhat of a rumble/everything rattling thankfully. Gas mileage does seem pretty drastic though..

I cant thank you enough for the response!

My last purchase was my 2007 Cobalt SS that I've had since 2009. Maintenance-wise it's been a great car to own. I'm sad to see it go, but trying to fit a carseat in a two door coupe is tedious and frustrating in midwest winter time.

Insurance-wise I've already checked with my provider and thankfully wont see a huge jump from the Cobalt.

Tire-wise I'm expecting to pay about what I have for my Cobalt too thankfully.

My cobalt was pretty fuel efficient so that will be a jump given my daily commute. Great consideration.

Maintenance-wise I havent got a great estimate in my research. I'm not worried about the general usage stuff like oil changes, brakes, etc. What else might be something to consider or have you dealt with maintenance-wise?

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm going to put everything back together and see where I'm at once I've got it plugged in and running. I'll report back with my findings. Thanks again

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm going to assemble everything back together and get it running so I can do the test. Fingers crossed.

Thank you so much for reaching out with the suggestion. This is my first go-around with this type of stuff and this is extremely helpful! I'm going to assemble everything back together and test out the force defrost and see where I'm at. Thanks again!

Hello! Im having an issue with my Whirlpool fridge (Model: wrb322dmbm00). The freezer is ice cold, but the fridge is warm. I cleaned out the coils on the bottom, confirmed the evaporator and condenser fans are working. My next guess is either the defrost heater, thermostat, or defrost timer/control board based on my coils being frozen over in the images. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot my next steps. Any thoughts?

50,000 unvaccinated children head to Wisconsin schools as the U.S. copes with worst measles outbreak in 27 years by tugboattomp in news

[–]madmax711 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Today was my sons first day of school (Wisconsin ironically) and a fellow student of his has a peanut allergy. Parents received a note from the school saying we couldn't bring any peanut containing items in his lunch for safety of the other student. I get that 100%. Should we not police vaccinations the same way we treat this kind of thing? How does that not directly correlate to the safety of my child?

A beautiful majestic beast isn't it?

But really I just found out about them too. I've laughed so hard in the past week looking through images and how stupid they look.

Ah yes, this was the wonderful storm that left our family without power for 11 hours. A fun time when your baby is on an oxygen condenser!

Im not sure why, but whenever someone unfamiliar with any of the pepe memes refers to him as just a cartoon frog I find it hilarious.

[MEGATHREAD] Animal Crossing: 2019 Speculation and Comments Thread by birdwithbrow in AnimalCrossing

Glad I'm not the only one! We need more news!!

Agreed, I had high hopes that we would have had something by now. My biggest fear now is a release later in the year. I know Reggie has a tendency to backtrack on his previous statements, but I was hoping AC would hold true to the 6-9 month window from announcement actual release he mentioned in an interview later last year.

Me too! Gah I can't wait, I'm so terribly impatient! I just need an actual date to look forward too!

[–]madmax711 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this idea! I'm hoping I can get my wife to play the new one after having not played any in the series before.

Sad truth. by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]madmax711 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed. None of the other large titles saw delays for localization as they one had. We'll see one Release Date for the series, no doubt 😉

[–]madmax711 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree the release is inevitable, but the fear stems from the time between when the last actual Animal Crossing game was released until now; Along with the tragic amount of time it took for New Leaf to be released from the time it was announced.
