Or the part where you go to sit down on the bench, but end up jumping and grabbing on to the wall, then dropping down and brandishing your sword at the guards you were originally trying to escape from. :/

Yep. I think its a known issue that will hopefully be addressed in the very near future. Any time there is an audio alert, any other non-Waze audio will stop (in my case, it is Pandora).

They’ll show that in Destiny:Reach

Wouldn’t water go shooting out the back of the sippy cup if the flow is greater than what dribbles out of the mouthpiece?

There was an achievement in Halo Reach(?) where you had to survive a fall that ordinarily would have killed you by meleeing an enemy. After studying youtube videos and countless attempts, I finally got it. It was a great sense of accomplishment.

I really feel for your girlfriend and her father. With AMC’s driving fees lower and banks demanding more and more detail about every little minute adjustment...I jumped ship. It’s a tough business to be in these days.

You sound like an appraiser. :)

Nice tip! Very helpful.

I hope they don’t. A bit of competition will drive innovation. It would be better if there were a third option too.

Yeah, definitely has more benefit for drivers - both sending and reading text messages. She can set alarms and appointments faster than tapping through the apps to do it. Quick weather updates, sports scores, etc.

This happened with campcomic.com. I just thought that the site had gotten hacked, or something was screwy with a site design or something. Nope, one of the penny-arcade domains got flagged as an advertiser and was being blocked. Once I added the page in the whitelist, the site came back.

Nope, you’re good. Having a budget means more freedom to do things. At first it might be a bit restricting as you unlearn some bad spending habits. However, the first time you take that family vacation without having to worry about how much you’re spending makes it all worth it.

True that. I’m a big fan of Steam. My computer isn’t though. :)

That may be helpful. Something along the lines of “here’s the cheapest place to buy your phone, and here’s the cheapest plan for your needs”. Kind of thing?

Nice tool, but it could be made to be more helpful. Something like:

Unfortunately, it looks like the Game of the Year editions are getting fewer and farther between. :/

Thanks for the heads up on Pandemic: Legacy. That looks like a very interesting take on the game. The OCD every-piece-goes-in-the-right-bag-and-in-the-right-slot-no-drinks-or-greasy-food-allowed-while-playing part of me is freaking out at permanently marking the game board and cards. I’m really torn.

Forbidden Island shares a lot of the same DNA as Pandemic, but is a lot easier to set up and play. Forbidden Desert is (in my opinion) the more refined and better game than Forbidden Desert.

My favorite is Pandemic, but the set up time is pretty complicated. Once you get the hang of it though, it is fun.

Seconded. I have owned several of the syma helicopters, and they are a lot of fun to fly around - super stable. I also own the X11, and it is also a blast to fly around. It is an entirely different experience than flying one of the helicopters. Luckily, there is a bumper guard that will protect the blades for the many…
