The Kings won a road game against the Warriors three weeks before the season ended. They also won enough other loseable games (Miami, at Lakers, Houston) in the last month that I came in thinking it had to be Ranadive.

It’s safe to run higher octane than the engine requires. The increased resistance to detonation is easily overcome by the ignition spark.

It’s a been a while since I played so I don’t remember if you specifically need fellow vassals to join that particular plot, but the gist of the opinion system is accurate.

Every character in Crusader Kings has traits and a history that determines their overall opinion of every other character. That opinion (along with those traits) then affects the choices they make. A simple example is plotting. You might want to usurp your liege by fabricating a claim on his title and then rebelling…

It uses USB. I think USB is only used to transfer the app’s UI to the touchscreen and touchscreen input back to the phone, since plugging it into my car also automatically turns on Bluetooth and pairs it.

Disney doesn’t give a hoot about Steamboat Willie’s copyright. Their characters are trademarked, so you’ll never be able to legally sell Mickey Mouse merchandise or create new Mickey Mouse cartoons that look or sound like Disney’s.

The rates for the various loan scenarios are listed at the very bottom of the ad. The 12-year loan has a 6.25% APR.

Yeah, there must be a missing 0 in mickeymammoth’s post. I also do about 90 minutes using leftover chicken bones and necks, but I do it in two steps so I can give the vegetables less time in the pot and keep them from totally disintegrating.

I’ve tried to find this out as well and the best conclusion I could come to is that due to the always-tight supply of CA-compliant gas, limiting pump gas to 91 is more profitable then selling 93 for an even higher price would be.

Wouldn’t virtually everyone say that buying Legacy of Rome is essential so that you can have retinues? Old Gods also adds a ton to the game.

The per-package “loss” is also determined by how the report divides the Post Office’s expenses between package and mail delivery. I think the figure is accurate if you allocate the expenses in line with revenue (e.g. if packages earn half the revenue you assign them half of the expenses), which is intuitive but…

The Georgist argument, which I largely agree with, is that land speculation is nonproductive activity that should be discouraged.

And even if you only withdraw the amount you can contribute for a year, you’re still missing out on the earnings your normal contribution would return. But you probably weren’t going to be able to make that contribution anyway if you’ve reached the point of tapping your Roth.

Roth contributions aren’t deductible, so the government doesn’t lose out on any taxes by letting you withdraw them. But you can end up penalizing yourself because putting the money back in is still subject to your annual contribution limit. So withdrawing more than that limit means you permanently lose whatever…

10% is probably what you pay an agent / manager who also helps you get jobs, like for people in entertainment where your agent will shop you around to casting directors, producers, etc.

This isn’t fucking baseball, weasel face! It’s catering!

Therapeutic Use Exemption, i.e. use of a banned substance due to medical necessity.

At some point early on a judge should have dismissed the suit with prejudice saying that Nissan Motors had no reasonable expectation of prevailing, given that he named the company after himself and had been using the domain, not squatting on it, for several years.

Specifically, we use the adverb “hella” much more frequently.

Cloth was my preference but I decided not to make it a deal breaker. It doesn’t make the search any easier when dealer web sites just list the interior as “black” and you have to figure it out by reverse-calculating the MSRP.
