  1. I guess because it's basic road safety that even little kids learn.... Or so we thought. @Kal-El814
  2. With some foods, I'm with you. For example, I'd be ok with never eating another Thanksgiving turkey for the rest of my life. And before anyone says that it's because I've never had "good" turkey: nah.
  3. Right, sorry, I think I was coming at this joke from the wrong side.
  4. This is a not-infrequent fear of mine. It's a major turnoff for me if someone stinks, so I try to be conscious of this in myself. I shower daily and wear deodorant, but I also know you can get used to smells and not detect them anymore.
  5. For them, America stopped being fully America right around April of 1865, amirite?
  6. Everyone knows exhaust is a performance enhancing drug.
  7. I'm not a regular runner by any means, but I wonder if it might have something to do with not wanting to get surprised by e.g. someone coming out of a building or around a corner?
  8. Just played my first round and I generally like it, and I'm guessing my enjoyment will only increase as I learn the maps. This time I was just running around in the rain, dodging between shipping containers trying not to get blasted. I did manage to take out 3 enemies and revive two teammates, so it checked some Battlefield boxes for me.
  9. Also an odd use of the word reincarnating, given what Christians generally believe.
  10. Of the founder's edition 3070 Ti though, right? Maybe I'm wrong but it looks like the MSRP of this card is $949 (e.g. here it is at Best Buy), so it's still definitely overpriced at $1,200 but it could be far worse.
  11. 3070 Ti in stock at Newegg: https://www.newegg.com/p/1FT-0009-006C2
  12. I'm currently reading Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World by Cal Newport, as well as Cosmic Queries: Startalk's Guide to Who We Are, How We Got Here, and Where We're Going by Neil deGrasse Tyson.
  13. You can play for up to 10 hours using a month of EA Play for $5 to see if you like it. That's what I'm doing.
  14. Oh this, yeah I did see that but I believe Newegg fixed that pretty quickly. I suppose it's a constant arms race between retailers and bot-makers. But I didn't use bots at all and still got lucky after just two weeks of trying, so it's still very possible to win without resorting to cheating.
  15. In what sense, do you mean? They shipped my stuff out the same day and it should be here Tuesday. I was forced in to buying an M.2 SSD along with my GPU but both together weren't that much above MSRP.
  16. I've also been driving for Uber Eats for the last few months and have definitely noticed it getting significantly worse lately, in terms of staffing difficulties. A lot of fast food restaurants in the area are going drive-thru only, which really blows when you're trying to quickly pick up food that should already be ready.
  17. After only trying for about two weeks, I managed to snag a 3070 Ti from the Newegg Shuffle. Keep trying, everyone, you might just get lucky!
  18. 2 days and nobody even congratulates me on the new card and being $1400 poorer so that the terrorists don't win? Son, I am disappoint in PCCB.
  19. Holy shit, after only trying for about two weeks I actually won the Newegg Shuffle! I got an MSI 3070 Ti and a 2 TB MSI M480 Spatium M.2 combo. $1400 for both, so only about $50 over MSRP total. $1400 is a tough pill to swallow though.
