The door should be motorized, idk if it is though. When they came out I saw a video on the truck from Doug Demuro and I think when it's put in park the door from the cab to the cargo area automatically opens to save like a second per stop. So the side door could definitely have like a button you press when you get out to shut it while you walk away.

It's the same thing but newer. My understanding is the ReVanced lead dev left and started it or something. I don't think ReVanced has been updated in quite a while. Morphed looks identical.

Hey this is what I'm doing my PhD dissertation on.

Did you read it? Explicitly says they have wings.

It would not have been awkward, it would have been describing what heeamt had he meant that. Seems some people are incapable of understanding that these are magical beings who's bodies may not be entirely made of material that we would expect.

Balrogs - and I shouldn't even have to say this - dohave wings.

He says they have wings. As I said, if you want to take that they are made of shadows you can, but they have wings.

[–] JokklMaster@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago (15 children)

I can't believe people still argue over whether or not Balrogs have wings when the text unambiguously says they do. You can have wings and also have a shadow that looks like wings.

His enemy halted again, facing him, and the shadow about it reached out like two vast wings.

...suddenly it drew itself up to a great height, and its wings were spread from wall to wall...

Like two vast wings but then he explicitly says its wings were spread, clearly stating it has wings. To be the most generous you could try to say the wings are made of shadows, but based on the text they're clearly still wings.

Yes, Balrogs have wings.

You should look I to Morphe now. Apparently main dev of ReVanced left and made it.

 

I got engaged on Saturday and last night my fiancée got this for me! By far the nicest watch I have ever owned. Nearly robbed the jewelry store with the price they gave us on it 😂 The model is the Longines Master Collection Chrono Moonphase 40mm - L2.673.4.61.6

Hey all! I'm new to nice watches, currently wearing a Timex Expedition from Target. I'll be getting engaged soon and my partner asked if I would want her to get me anything and I realized I might like a nice watch. I have decided I definitely want it to be mechanical and I don't want a dress watch, I want to be comfortable wearing it every day so I want it to be fairly durable. I'll take it off while bouldering or working on my car, but I don't wanna worry about the case looking bad if it bumps into something. I also like to see some complications as I just like the look of them, my favorite is the moon phase as my grandfather always had a moonphase watch. The last thing is I'd prefer to have the positions marked by Arabic numerals, or secondarily Roman numerals. I'm not a fan of just dots, squares, etc. Based on my research the closes I can find is the Longines Master Collection that should be linked, specifically - L2.673.4.61.6. I love the black dial and the steel case. I would be very happy with this but if the case was black that would just be even more perfect for me. Obviously it has the Roman numerals but I am ok with that.

I'm wondering what people here think of this watch and if you think it would be good for a watch to wear for a lifetime. Do you know of any other watches that fit my criteria? I know I am very particular but I am pretty happy with this watch and think I'd love looking at it every day. My Expedition has a black dial, steel case, and black strap and it looks good so maybe swapping the strap on this to something black would fit the look I like. I am a little wary of leather straps due to them wearing out in the past, but I wonder if that may have been due to cheaper leather. It also looks more dressy to me though which doesn't fit the look I want as much.

I'll end my rambling here, let me know what you think and any suggestions you have!

Edited to a better link to the watch

GTD is a supercharged engine.

Edit: Also looks like GT350's are available with superchargers and Super Snakes are supercharged.

Mine was a flash game, I think on miniclip. Sort of like a tower defense game but it also had a point and shoot cannon you'd use. Sort of near future kind of vibe. I think it had a green background due to being on a field. Top down. Main cannon was a big white one and you would build auto turrets to help defend.

Hey Ford beat Ferrari in Le Mans

 

I'm looking to repair the safety slide on this knife. There use to be a hemisphere type of thing on it similar to the button. Years ago it randomly fell off and I didn't notice so I lost it. Any ideas on a good repair? The knife holds sentimental value to me as it was my grandfather's and I believe he got it in West Germany when he was stationed there.

If anyone knows of any better communities to post to for help I'd love the recommendation!

 

So I have an Astrolux MF01S with the extended battery tube and recently it wouldn't turn on after not having really used it in a bit due to moving. I put all the cells into my XTAR VC8 and one of the cells wasn't recognized by the charger. I used a multimeter and it's not reading any voltage from that cell (reads appropriate voltage from other cells). Is there anything to do or is this cell just dead for some reason? I believe they're the samsung 30Q's that are generally recommended.

 

Can anyone help me solve this? I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch (I believe it's the original, I got it in 2019) and ever since my phone (S23 Ultra) last updated it doesn't save my notification settings. I like to have it set so that my watch still notifies me while I am on my phone and that when my watch is connected to my phone it silences notifications on my phone. I can still set that, but when I turn it off at night it resets the settings so every morning I have to open the wearable app and redo my settings. Does anyone know how to fix this?

 

Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this watch? I had seen a video that said it was likely that Center screw being loose so it wouldn't wind, but even after tightening that it won't start ticking. Bought some simple tools and I'm willing to mess with it (I believe it was a cheap watch) I just have no clue what to do.

 

I'm looking at getting into photography and I'm trying to decide on what camera would be best for me. One of the primary things I'm interested in is nature photography when I'm out on hikes.

I spoke with someone I know into photography and he seemed to be pushing me towards full frame cameras. Given the prices for these cameras (I'm fine with used) it seems like I have to make a bit of a choice between older full frame and newer aps-c.

After doing some research here are the cameras I am currently considering:

Sony a7

Sony a7R II

Sony a6400 (or maybe a6500)

Nikon D800

Canon EOS 5D Mk III

Canon M50 Mk II

These are sort of organized by how interested in them I am. The pricing varies a bit for them, but with the cheaper ones I'd be able to get more lenses sooner and/or feel less bad about upgrading it in 2 years if I get really into it. So would the a7 or a7r be a good way to go to get a good balance of things or is something like a D800 still worth it today? Or is it just that worth it to have something like the a6400/6500 today to have newer features?
