And this should only apply to things Acer sells directly. If Amazon or Target import Acer products they are the ones that pay the tariff, not Acer.

If I'm getting a refund I file in late Feb or early March. If I owe then I file close to Apr 15. Why pay sooner than you need to?

Just like anyone in a union that voted for Trump, or any woman. I don't know what they expected.

He has so much hate-filled energy, I think he needs all the pushback the world and his own constituents can give him. Keep him busy.

They are also your enemies if you have any decency or empathy. I used to be conservative but they are just such ignorant selfish assholes.

DBE Department of Billionaire Enrichment is what it's looking like.

And he is using it to quell regulations and investigations into Tesla and SpaceX. Which is a crystal clear conflict of interest and instead of the US Marshals deputizing his security staff they should be arresting him.

Even Spiderman never gets below $20.

There is fun to be had there. IIRC the gameplay and UI had some annoying parts. Like I don't think there was any way to keep a favorite weapon after a mission.

It can be heat from surrounding units, especially those below you. Heat rises. There is a 15 degree difference between my upstairs and downstairs sometimes.

Can I use English words? Because they aren't original. I'm not so sure about this exercise.

If we replaced the Oceans with orange juice that would probably be bad. But if we all work together we can do it.

Valet parking seems to be getting more common at some city locations that don't have a good parking situation.

How do you feel about valet parking? Doesn't bother you in the least, will do it if you have to, will never do it, something else?

Personally I don't like some random person driving my car.

 

I've never smoked, but I've been around people that do. What do people feel during/after smoking? It doesn't seem to make people high or hallucinate or anything. It maybe mildly relaxes them?

 

I've been getting diverted on sidequests, capturing ships, and exploration too much.

But I really don't want to do the Constellation questline yet, I've seen some spoilers and I'm not ready for that . I'm thinking of concentrating on the UC Vanguard or Freestar Collective questlines. Can I complete those without interfering with the Constellation questline?

Just went through a Starfield experience that sort of awed me. Wanted to capture some pirate ships, I took a mission from Freestar Rangers mission terminal to destroy a "Crimson Fleet Captain." I thought it was a person, but that's the name of a ship.

Engaged the ship, battle was fairly easy, took out their engines with EM weapons and boarded the ship. I was immediately blown away by how big and full of stuff the ship was. I've got a couple class B ships, but this one was probably 5 times the size of my Aegis. There were rooms after rooms, a few big open areas, several kitchens and sitting areas, a medical bay, storerooms, weapon rooms, armor mannequins, and a medium size trek-like bridge. The ship had at least 3 levels, and had probably 10-15 pirates to fight. Got to the captain's chair and was able to sit in it because I had leveled up my pilot skill enough. The ship was mine! I did this sort of thing last week with a smaller but impressive ship, but wasn't able to sit in the chair because my pilot skill was too low, so I had to abandon it.

All the time I was fighting my way through the ship I was saying "oh my god" to myself as I saw how much bigger this ship was than the ones I was used to.

For all it's shortcomings Starfield really nailed the ships, they are very unique and even compare very favorably to ships from Space Engineers, Empyrion, and Elite Dangerous. Elite Dangerous ships might give them some design competition but you can't walk around in them IIRC.

ETA: The ship is apparently originally a Crossbow III, it's not all that huge but compared to the starter ship it's massive: https://inara.cz/starfield/ship/1984/

 

Sound clip is pretty creepy.

 

Like ants nesting on a river bank, some only live a few days. A colony could live for many ant generations on a riverbank but when a big flood comes their entire world is wiped out.
