Agreed. To me, the ringing is just what silence sounds like now after 15 years of the ringing. Mine isn't very bad, so I only really hear it in quiet spaces, but I protect my hearing as much as possible now to prevent it from getting worse.

Dunno if it's been delisted since, but I installed it on all my Rokus and Roku TVs a few weeks back without issue.

Dang, still no co-op. Back to waiting I go.

If you want some variety, I played a ton of PowerWash Simulator when I had COVID and it was fantastic. Just chill, not much thought required, and clean stuff with a pressure washer progression system.

When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn't wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.

Phantasy Star Online. They've tried to release sequels over the years - Universe, PSO2 - and failed miserably at capturing what made Episodes 1 and 2 great. There's no way they would be able to just update the graphics without trying to "improve" something in the gameplay, or changing the loot system, or adding MTX, and would just fuck it up again.

PSO is so good that even now, 23 years after it launched on Dreamcast, there's still hundreds if not thousands of people like me that still play regularly. Whether that's offline on their GameCube or online in Blue Burst on PC on a server like Ephinea.

I've been playing Sea of Stars on it lately, a great modern take on the classic JRPG format which works great on the deck.

NoMachine has Android and Windows clients.

For a second there I felt called out, but my gas guzzling burnout truck is from the 90s 👍

Well cool, about time. If they put offline mode in it'll finally make sense to put it on my Steam deck. Been wanting to play it portable since I got the deck but always use it away from home and setting up a hotspot connection to play an ARPG solo isn't great.

I also try and ignore energy costs and prevent ewaste: my home server is my three builds back gaming PC with a lower power GPU shoved into it. Whenever I build a new main gaming PC my old one becomes my wife's gaming PC, and her old PC is rebuilt into the home server.

So.. the force engine with Remastered cutscenes? Hopefully this remaster is like the Quake II one and just comes as a free patch.

Huh, didn't know that. Most of my wrenching has been done on older GM trucks and they used a vacuum actuated valve that cut the heater core out entirely by closing the loop under the hood, so coolant still flows by a shortened path. I'm just glad ops problem was found there. Thanks for the info!

It'll be primed but not pressurized. Some leaks, especially in older rubber hoses, only leak under pressure when the swelling of the hose opens the split.

Awesome! I claim victory for this thread. One more notch carved into the 1/2" ratchet.

People be jumping straight to head gaskets way too much when coolant issues arise.

Any chance your partner uses the heater and you don't? Many cars have a heater core bypass valve that only allows coolant into the heater core when the heat is on in the cabin.

Sup.

I could happen here! Four 12-hour days..

I had the same reservation until recently. A few weeks back I bought a set of their 6t Daytona jackstands after inspecting the welds and safety pins and those things are damn solid. I probably wouldn't use their much cheaper and smaller 3t models, but these 6t stands are great. I have a hunch they upped their QC and quality after all that bad jackstands press they got.
