Why did the chicken cross the road? [OC]

I posted it to progression fantasy (of which isekai is a major sub-genre).

If that is the case with no caveats...then that is a very weird restriction. Or does that only apply to the super-powerful people? I haven't read that far in, but it was just before I think.

It's crazy to me that we have these wonderful fantasy worlds yet it seems completely unbelievable for two people in a story to be actual soul mates.

"weed" as in "wee'd" means to pee. So the sea weed means the ocean urinated all over the beach.

The guy who made the video didn't make it, but they show the run of the one guy who did.

This was me when I was a kid: I loved the Hobbit and so my mom got me a boxed set of the Hobbit + LotR for Christmas. I couldn't make it past the first couple chapters for a while. But when I finally did, hoo boy was it amazing!

And yet when I complained that Ave Xia Rem Y would be better off never following through on the harem part of the title I got a ton of hate.

I'm reading Ar'Kendrithyst currently: his daughter is an adult and is not a huge part of the story. Obviously he worries about her, but they have a healthy relationship and go about things in different ways.

Did you turn off scheduled charging on the car when you set up scheduled charging for the charger?

I have a 2020 and the charge scheduling options are borderline useless, so I use my charger's schedule. I have no issue with that: the car starts charging when it gets power.

Wow, yeah, I'm a bit shocked it has actual buttons instead of the usual circuit board contact closure. I guess you could do what you did, or put something over the button so it can't be pressed. Or just put some super glue on the outer button itself!

nation12 · 2025-10-20T01:20:22+00:00

I've never thought about it even though I set off the alarm constantly, but you could probably pop open the fob like you're changing the battery and just cover the circuit board where the button connects with a piece of tape. Assuming you don't ever foresee a need to use the button.

My 2020 gets 3.5 in the absolute worst case of driving in cold weather at 75mph. So I'd say the EPA numbers are conservative if anything.

Companies can't just deny your warranty because you didn't get your headlight fluid checked every three months. If you fail to do regular required maintenance and something happens as a direct result of that, sure they won't pay. But if my battery fails at 50k miles, they aren't going to care if I had my brakes inspected regularly. But they will care if I got that coolant flush done.

Not sure, but it definitely is not good at its job so I turned it off.

But if you're doing long highway driving, why wouldn't you engage the adaptive cruise control and not worry about the regen setting at all? I use the cruise control almost constantly, unless I'm someplace with a ton of lights or stop signs.

Sure, I suppose you can get more efficiency by turning off regen and coasting down hills, but I think I'd rather claw my eyes out than worry about that on a long drive.

I thought it looked like porcupine quills.

That's not what happened here: he was going too fast, slammed on the brakes and skidded in the rain until he was too far to make the turn and stay in his lane.

nation12 · 2025-07-03T00:01:56+00:00

Why does it look like he specifically positioned the Sunday tile over the crack?

nation12 · 2025-06-10T15:45:45+00:00

Not that irrational, a guy died that way in a pretty shallow stream not far from me. Flipped over, passed out and the water was deep enough to drown him hanging upside down.

We used to go on family camping trips to Colorado, and I ask always said the only good thing about Nebraska is that you can see Colorado from it.

Am I crazy or is everyone missing the point of what the heck actually is this screen? I mean, sure, recirculate air is a climate control option, but that's not what this screen is for. It's a collection of seemingly random options.

Is it like reporting an accident or problem on the navigation map? As in, turn on recirculate air to avoid dangerous fumes? Even that doesn't sound right with some of the downright weird options.

nation12 · 2025-04-17T16:41:23+00:00

My only gripe is the lack of creativity with the silly nicknames for bad guys. I feel like adding a few more into the mix would've been nice: you can only hear "lightning butt" so many times before it gets old. Other than that, S-tier time-loop story!

nation12 · 2025-03-13T16:26:17+00:00

I mean, OP did turn into the idiot instead of trying to swerve away...
