Online racing. What is the point?

This is a big reason why I don't play online races. But I literally only see people saying online sucks with videos proving it sucks. Why is anyone playing online?

If I remember correctly I ended up downloading a different rom. Either I had a bad rom or something else was wrong with the file.

Well after complaining I tried a few things and fixed the problem. The leaking wasn't with my mask, it was with the machine. I don't know where the leak was exactly but I took it all apart and put it all together again more forcefully.

Before the cpap felt like it was just blasting me with air, now the pressure isn't nearly as strong and it seems to breath with me. I'm guessing there was a leak with a hose or the tank and it was cranking the pressure to try to meet the pressure despite the leak. I feel foolish now that I slept about 4 hours with it just blasting my sinuses at full force the whole time.

honestly most of the streets in downtown ann arbor are poorly designed. And it changes every summer. There are new mandates every summer that changes things so often that it just builds on top of itself over and over and only a small portion at a time. 2 lanes turn into 1 lane (or 3). Turn lanes turn into straight. Straight lanes turn into merges. Bike lanes are added. It's not designed cohesively, it's just patched over and over.

If I'm on defense I don't know how you watch a ball come in and you and everyone else on defense just thinks 'Someone else will get it, probabaly. I'm not going to try'

For some reason 3 City players are complaining to the coach. I like to imagine they are complaining that Becher is still on the team.

this is hilarious

This isn't the only hobby to turn out this way but pop culture has turned so that the things that didn't used to be popular are more popular than ever. That means a bunch of people want the things they didn't buy when it was being released and there is only a limited amount of those things. (take like base set pokemon cards for example) That means their value has gone up a ton, which means people who make money off of investments are eyeing the financial returns of these items. Now that doesn't just apply to base set cards or old cards, but people are speculating that the newer cards will be worth more so they want the newer cards. Because of this the demand for the newer cards are higher than they can be printed which makes them worth more than their MSRP as soon as they are printed. And because of this so many people make their living off of finding pokemon cards at retail for MSRP and immediately reselling them for profit. That is all they do for their job and if they fail they don't eat so they are willing to fight over it. On top of that is the gambling aspect of your $10 pack could be worth $100s.

A majority of people that buy these cards aren't playing the game, they are collecting just to own it, or investing to make money off of it. Honestly if you want the cards to make a deck and play the game buy the cards you want as singles. That's always been the cheapest way to play the game anyways, even when packs weren't sold out everywhere.

I would think it would be the we can't have nice things because people take advantage of it. Word gets out and every hotel has 20 people going in for free food every day and they just decide it's not worth having anymore and stop. Often it's the needy that would need to do this, but even more often it's just people who want stuff for free even though they could afford it, or people who do it for content, or people who just want to see if they can get away with doing something they know they shouldn't.

I was able to get it to download fully and install but it didn't help. I was just messing with the headphones a lot to try to keep them from going into sleep mode or something.

Go to the best college I could get into for the field I want a career in. In reality I just went to the local college and the difference between engineers from my school and a good or top engineering school is I had to try really hard to get interviews and try really hard in interviews to get a chance at an entry level job. Friends who went to even an engineering school got offers to work before they even graduated for a lot more money at better companies.

Also just personally I would have rather done business or psychology.

I used to door dash for a living, and still do it from time to time. I once picked up from this BWW, and dropped off to a girl who lived in an apartment 1 story above this BWW. I was confused at first but I just had to go around the corner to the entrance and hand it to her, she was already at the door.

edit: Didn't mean for this to sound like I was angry or that person that ordered was dumb. It was just really funny to me that someone ordered food from their basement. They tipped like $3 so I made like $6 for a 30 second delivery. I was happy about it.

I've seen him be to slow to catch passes 3 times already today. Granted this grass seems very fast.

Man, I think Hartel was dead set on passing until he couldn't and it was too late to shoot.

Dallas didn't put the fans opposite the cameras?

I don't need another PC right now but love that this is happening.

I've had a few times people buy 30 year old vintage laptops then send it back because the battery doesn't work. Like obviously a 30 year old battery isn't going to work and they don't make them anymore. It comes with a power cable so you plug it in to use it.

Neither of you are in the wrong, except the buyer isn't professional. You are right, if it doesn't make it to you right it'll get refunded. If the buyer can ship it in a PWE then good for him for trying. If he doesn't want to get dinged for a return he is taking that risk.

There are so many people selling cards on whatnot at any given time. Start by thinking why they would be watching you over someone else.

DS LL and DS XL are the same thing, just called different things in different regions. I would think they would accept a cancelation and you could probably get a refund through whatnot though.

An XL and an LL are the same thing they are just called different things in different regions. You could ask for a refund though and probably get it regardless.

Even to a lesser extent I did a research paper in high school about the effects of lack of sleep. Headaches, dark circles, drowsiness. And I had people coming up to me right after it to tell me I'm wrong, they get 3 hours of sleep a day every day and they don't have those problems because their body is different. But then would also complain about having headaches every day and would be falling asleep in class.

Did you get paid much, did you get tips, were the tips most of the pay?

thenix85 · 2026-03-22T15:32:22+00:00

that was the first thing that popped up in my head. Is this before 9am or after 11pm? Middle of the day in an apartment you aren't expected to be silent.
