Should be able to send to the service member's unit at FPO or APO depending on if they're in the army, navy, etc. This page https://www.usps.com/ship/apo-fpo-dpo.htm has more info.

You can absolutely receive mail and packages when deployed in the military, even during wartime. When I was in the USMC, getting mail while out in the field was a bit of a psychological life line.

A) I applaud you for your masterful continuation of the pelagic theme of this discussion about Elon porpoisely allowing this project to flounder into Davy Jone's locker.

B) TIL that an anglerfish lure is called an esca and that a sufficiently literate person can seamlessly weave such an unusual word into this net of fishy discourse.. Bravo!

Dude, I love your sandy brain! TIL!

Back in the day I used to love many of the fantasy novels by David Eddings (e.g. Belgariad, Mallorean) but after learning about the terrible child abuse he and his wife were prosecuted for, I can't look at them the same way.

I'm already playing with around 175 mods, which has eliminated a lot of the stupider issues with the game (e.g. broke merchants that make it impossible to conveniently sell off loot, crazy high ship registration fees, those mind bogglingly awful crowd NPCs, etc. etc.).

TBH, the main quest is incredibly uninteresting to me (never completed the Skyrim main quest either, though I've had a blast playing a 2500+ modlist for many hours in both SE and VR) but I've been having a lot of fun scanning planets and taking on random quests in various locations.

I think if it weren't for the mods that already exist I'd find Starfield to be too dull and grindy to play for more than a few hours, but with them I'm staying engaged enough to buy the modding community more time to work its magic. Guess it's kinda sad that this game needs mods to pull its bacon out of the fire, but cool that the modders have already accomplished as much as they have.

Personally, unless you really love the house or location I'd walk away. I'd also be super surprised if issues found by a structural engineer can be fixed, particularly if you have to hire someone for a significant amount of that work, for just 15k, as after the structure is correct there's a bunch of other aspects of the building's construction that will have been disrupted and need fixing. If you need to hire a contractor for repairs it'd probably be more realistic to budget 50-80k for repairs.

If nearby homes exist in turnkey condition for 100k that's your better bet. Not being willing to turn the electricity on in order to help a prospective buyer check out the place is a huge red flag with sirens attached as well. Structural problems can be very bad, electrical problems can burn the place down and kill everyone inside.

Walk away would be my suggestion.

This is the way. Win is already activated, no need to pirate anything. Just get a >= 8gb flash drive, download the installer creator app from Microsoft, and reinstall Windows. It will activate based on the licensing level the machine came with, minus the crapware, which is from the manufacturer's OS image, not Microsoft's.

Same. I love my Plex server - I rip all of my physical media audio and video to it and can watch/listen on all of my devices. Music is especially fun on Plex, as it pulls in great bio info for most of the artists, which makes organizing my decent sized music library a fun bit of zen..

Sounds like you may want to look into reshade. There's a ton of reshade presets up on the Starfield nexus, many of which may make the improvements you're looking for.

Sounds like your car did not defeat you, and like you kicked a lot of ass. Serpentine belts are a giant pain in the ass - fought with one myself today. Just gotta have the right tool, which in this case is one of those that gets used once every 5 years unless you work on a lot of cars. You did great, and should be proud of what you accomplished!

Same. I am a huge fan of curb-alerting large items that I can no longer use. Always a huge relief when a broken table saw that's not worth fixing or some other large item disappears from my garage into the trunk of someone's car.
