Don't you have to shell put the money first anyway then get reimbursed?

Read on... if you don't skip, then it crashes anyway, only now you won't be able to get a refund. The performance will be fine for the few minutes you get to play, so there's thar.
For real, does nobody read the whole sentence anymore?

Take your pick: CPU at 100% in the menu, compiling shaders takes hours but if you skip that the performance even on recommended hardware at moderate settings is in the toilet, and if you do wait then it crashes once it is too late to refund.
People have posted a couple different solutions, which seem to have mixed success.

Well, if one brand can fuck up like this, what's to keep others from doing it too? You'd think keeping dangerous bacteria out of eyedrops would be a simple matter, but apparently not.

You young people are weird. Buying someone coffee isn't a date. It's just a kind gesture.

Reply to Wife elopes with another man, husband marries her lover's wife as revenge by wewhomustnotbenamed
That's not eloping, that's "running off." Eloping is when a couple leaves town to get married, usually to avoid family members who would violently interfere.

Another way of looking at it is that she's now convinced that she gives world class head and is going to be riding that high for at least a week.

I can't say I have, though as long as the words are English I'm sure they'll make as much sense to me. Which is to say, none at all.

As is usual with UK stories, all the words are English and I still don't understand the headline.

If it's real, he should be in the hospital and the bouncers in jail.

I've been playing for 40 years and the only thing I can say I've accomplished in that time is that my fingers don't hurt anymore.

Reply to Beginner on electric guitar. by Goldestwing
It is very doubtful that the guitar is too big for you. How you're holding it, where you put your thumb, etc. will matter a lot though. You should use a strap and be standing. How high you adjust the strap is personal preference. The important thing is that it's comfortable. Your thumb should be on the back of the neck on the opposite side of your fingers. Your fingers should be arched so that they push down the strings without touching nearby strings unless you're playing a barre chord. Arching your fingers is the hardest to master.
If you do it right, it's going to hurt like hell until your fingers get calloused enough.

Reply to When is the case that the main actor of the show gets the "and" credit billing? by [deleted]
Actors and their agents think that "and" is just as good as top billing, and the people who have to deal with competing egos are happy to let them think that. Not that Charlie Cox has too big an ego, but likely someone else does.

I always thought the "big needle right in your stomach" was just what they told kids so they wouldn't play with wild animals. Never would have guessed there was some truth behind it.
