True. The banks are at least marginally more on your side than car dealerships though.

I've only ever banked at credit unions.

Preapprove loan in the range you want from your bank.
Agree in writing on car price.
Get loan from bank.
Pay for car
Pay back bank.

Edit: to be clear, when i say Bank I only mean Credit Union.

If they had a patron saint it would be the youtuber Lazerpig, and maybe Perun.

Because you do not have assigned overhead bag storage, and people bring either bags that are too big, or bring multiple bags

Well, there goes Toyota Quality. Looks like they're going full Boeing.

It is when you consider that it was roughly 80% of the stock they held.

It would be far better to tax the rich like we used to.

Unfortunately it seems that the military will be useful as Russia needs to be taught a lesson.

Google has long since surpassed anything MS dreamed of doing.

Edit: to be clear, this article is that they're blocking programs other than the control panel from changing the default browser.

Meanwhile, in Android, I've set Newpipe as the default app for YouTube videos. I have every single url for YouTube set to open in Newpipe. Still opens all YouTube video links in the YouTube app.

Google gets to do this on Android. Apple gets to do this on iOS.

The unfortunate reality is that MS is catching up to the bad apples in bad behaviour.

Except the companies aren't doing layoffs because of a flop or a bad release.

They're doing them explicitly because shareholder expectations of profit growth were not met.

Eh its in a really good place right now. They've added a bunch of ways to get archon shards and even some new attempts at an endgame

The trick to the 2016 polls is that they assumed that the rust belt would be wholly democratic, as it had always been. The Hillary team ignored them completely and was trying to flip Texas. Biden got lucky in 2020 in the rust belt. Trump is spending a lot of time campaigning there again.

And the Democratic party brass are still focusing on flipping Texas, 8 years later.

Yeah, 2k4 was it's own thing. Also the collectors edition had a set of video tutorials on how to create and modify models in the free version of Maya. As well as how to add them to the game in the unreal editor.

It was probably shelved because the company they contracted UT2k3 and UT2k4 out to is now Digital Extremes.

What, why would someone say that. Gale is irritating. If it wasn't for his ability to have two high level summons and fireballs he'd absolutely be benched for me.

Potentially the first time: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loyal_Nine

Although Wikipedia is wrong. They didn't get organic crowds of people. They hired gangs to artificially riot and create the illusion of angry commoners. Source: Crucible of War, Fred Anderson.

It wasn't until New York (sons of liberty) also tried fake riots that actual commoners got involved, mostly about rich and wealthy merchants claiming huge tracts of land.

I would highly recommend "Crucible of War" by Fred Anderson. It's a bit dry at first, but picks up.

Very briefly, it's about the lead up to the seven years war(aka French-Indian war), the war itself, the post-war and lead up to the revolution. The author states that he feels you can't look at the revolution as its own thing without all of the pieces that led to it.

That's awesome. I suppose I should look into lending a hand in the dev department.

The bug exists on mbin as well. (Kbin.run)
