You can certainly find new vehicles for less than $45K. Whether or not that’s what you want is a different story.

This is anecdotal, but I see a LOT of late model pickup trucks and large SUVs on the road now. And those start at least $50K.

Exactly this. I only have so much anger and outrage to give, and this doesn’t meet the (unfortunately high) bar.

True. I was assuming that people would want shared progression because that’s how the previous games worked.

I’ll give you the lack of multiplayer playlists and progression issues, but the lack of campaign co-op and mission replay kinda make sense considering this was intended to be a open world/RPG style of game.

True, but cryptocurrency just seems like trading one evil for another.

Fair enough. I live in an area with a lot of churches and clinics offering free testing, so I (incorrectly) assumed this was relatively the same everywhere.

Just like the vaccine rollout, it sounds like free testing availability is a regional thing. For me there are plenty of churches and clinics in my area doing free drive-through testing with results within 48 hours.

Maybe I missed something, but haven’t COVID tests always been free? I know there were reports of shady clinics and hospitals that would go back and try to bill insurance for emergency room visits, but overall testing has been free.

You can’t ride behind them, but you can grapple and pull the current occupants out.

To be fair, last I checked you still can’t easily buy an Xbox (Series X) or a PS5. And the only way to get one is to either get lucky, sign up for some retailer’s shopper program, and/or spend a bunch of time setting up stock alerts and hoping you’re faster than the bots.

Yep, been this way for about 2 - 3 years now. And it’s always been the Miners, COVID just made it that much worse.

I thought the same, and I’m surprised he hasn’t started a GoFundMe campaign yet.

Exactly this. Most people who run into these issues, or complain about garbage disposals are using the cheap, builder grade Badgers that can barely dispose water let alone solid material.

Actually, with “pandemic fatigue” setting in now would be the perfect time to bring something like this back. The original problems haven’t been solved, but if you were looking to get as many signups as possible in a short amount of time, now may be it.

Now that you mention it, it is kinda surprising. This seems like something they would snatch up without thinking twice.

This is less about capitalism and more about living on the bleeding edge and getting cut every now and then.

Depends on what you’re buying, and I wouldn’t call it an interrogation as much as due diligence.

I really intended this as a joke, if only because it would never work. But you bring up a good point, and the more I think about it, why not treat GPUs like any other expensive eBay/Craigslist/Facebook purchase?

Fun thought, what if EVGA/NVIDIA included a list of blocked serial numbers into the drivers, so if someone tried to use one of the stolen cards the driver wouldn’t load.
