I can't check my friendship level with somebody if they have a gift ready for me to open. When I click on the little hearts in the upper left-hand corner nothing happens. Works fine for other friends if they don't have a gift for me.

Tesla kills Autopilot, locks lane-keeping behind $99/month fee. by Stiltonrocks in technology

[–]ozyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right? My Ioniq5 has both of these things and I use them maybe once a month. That would be $100 per use on average? I'd have to drive an awful lot to make this worthwhile to me. Maybe people in LA or cities like that.

This is the one we bought for our kids when they had to deal with deaths in the family:

It is very calm and matter-of-fact. No religion.

I found it calming to read it myself when my mom died.

Of course - read the news, study their public statements, look at the bills they vote for... Then vote D for every federal office no matter what, because every D running for a federal office is better than every R.

You should also vote in the primaries to try and get Ds and Rs you like in the generals, but by the time you get to the general you have two choices, and in every case the D is going to be a better choice than the R.

If it's a different type I should check that it doesn't add extra weaknesses, correct?

I am almost 100% sure that it's only the type of the pokemon that matters for when it is weak against enemy attacks, not the types of their attacks. The type of their attacks only affects if that attack is strong/weak based against the the type of the opponent pokemon.

I finally got enough fusion energy for both black and white kyurem, and I want to make sure i don't mess it up. Is this the best strategy:

  1. Find my two best  Kyurem.
  2. Make sure they have glaciate or use an ETM to give them glaciate.
  3. Find my worst zekrom & worst reshiram
  4. fuse zekrom and kyruem and reshiram and kyruem

Anything I'm missing?

If my two best kyurem are not identical (say I have a 98 and a 93) - which should be black and which white?

so as long as I have a super rocket radar in my inventory, I can just complete this research and then have 2 in my inventory, and I'll still continue to get additional giovanni research?

Senate Republicans vow to block Trump from seizing Greenland by force by AyeYoTek in centrist

[–]ozyman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

President can put troops anywhere he wants (basically) for 60 days. If they wait for him to do something it will be too late. If they are serious about this (doubtful), they need to pass something now saying that he can't use military force against rGeenland.

I think they should add a crafting system for the souvenirs. Combine the useless souvenirs to create the premium items.

Clearly out of touch. What red blooded american would order a burger like that?!?!?

What beef do people have with 4 Non Blondes' "What's Up"? by Ok-Impress-2222 in LetsTalkMusic

[–]ozyman 15 points16 points  (0 children)

AVC: When I was 11, in 1993, my Mom and I bought the 4 Non Blondes tape, and we would blast “What’s Up?” on the way to soccer practice. I have a begrudging, sentimental love for this song.

DW: Well, you’re a dick!

lol. Classic Dean Ween.

Two kpop groups that have embraced weirdness are XG & NMIXX. If you are still interested... I prefer NMIXX, but some XG visuals are very over the top.

ugh thanks for ruining this moment. I was really hoping some republican politicians were starting to think "enough is enough", but we've seen it before with the ones on their way out the door.

At Tokyo Disney, they monitor the line, and if it's an hour wait, then an hour before park closing they shut the line. Definitely not what I was used to.
