But isn't everything more expensive due to shipping costs?

Visiting Hawaii every year I am usually done being there within the 2 weeks. I don't know how you do it but the isolation from everything else I just can't stand

... isolation from everything else... Idaho. Really?

A lot of things are more expensive. Rent is generally the worst, although depending on your standards and location that can be relatively affordable - especially if you have two incomes. There's Amazon, Walmart and Costco which help a lot. It's a tradeoff though - if you want da life then you don't mind paying da price.

Yup, everybody has their own paradise - A lot of people get 'Island fever'. I sorta like the isolation ( I think Gilligan had it made!). But also there's not really anything I miss about the mainland that I don't have here or just don't want. It's all relative - when you're in Honolulu you might as well be in Phoenix or Denver, it's just another big city - but more expensive and surrounded by water. And living in Hawai'i is all about loving the ocean.
-If you come out here on your next annual visit give me a shout!

The better half and myself were married in Kona. We absolutely loved it. Such a cute town. A felt it was a bit of a mixed bag.. a bit touristy, but not overwhelmingly touristy. We enjoyed it very much. We've always planned on returning for a visit. Originally, the 5-year anniversary... then the 10... Still hasn't happend. Big Island still calling for us though... Eventually we'll get back there.

Yup, Kailua-Kona is a charming place. That's where you need to shoot for @Jakedog23.

Video at the bottom of the page is 25 minutes of factual impressions on PS4 gameplay. It's really well done. He takes his take with all the screens to show you what's available to you. Some things I don't like but I'm sure they're working on it. As stated in the video, it's not the final product, and there will be a Day 1 patch. Still looks good

Sorry for double post but different topic.

Just wanted to mention something that might make people here super-giddy. The audio section of Assetto Corsa. There are levels for specifics like engine, wind, opponents, etc, but most importantly, TIRES!! You can make it sound like GT6 if that's what you're used to. You can customize so much in terms of sound, that's one that I know a lot of audiophiles like myself will enjoy tinkering with.

BANNERS FOR AUGUST 21ST 2016

Combo 1

Combo picked by @Grandpa Money

Combo 2

Track froze by @SAMHAIN85 / Car picked by @brian540

Combo 3

Track froze by singlepaddy / Car picked by @Vegasracer

GOOD LUCK SUNDAY EVERYONE
Race Hard / Race Clean / Race Snail

​

Here are some alternate versions for the banners. I thought I'd take a more simple approach. So less clutter with letters and numbers, only because @Rednose58 already supplies that info in the room setup banners. But in the same breath I "paddified " them up a bit, but you still get the idea. I would still add the prize winner info underneath each picture if you like them. So let me what you guys think, old or new?

[Lessen]

Those are super nude Paddy. Great work!

Nice... I could edit... But it's kinda funny..

Man, DesertChicken, you can suck the fun out of anything. C+M is FUN. It's all about fun without the pressure of fighting for points. I also find the tomfoolery rooms that Card, me and Aero set up teach us so much about how the car handles when it's out of shape. And from what I have seen in PCars, you need all the help offered to improve.

Again though, leave the snotty comments to yourself. Bad Chicken, go lie down and think about it. Wakawakawak.

 

[DesertPenguin09]

Dude, I'm not being snotty, I'm being as respectful as possible. He asked if I wanted to join and I explained why I wouldn't. Fair enough

This has been on my mind since I read it yesterday. I have to ask DP, do you practice being logically inconsistent, does it come naturally or is it chemically induced? A week or so ago you made a point that you'd raced off the LCL, 3 times. How does one get on the LCL in the first place?

While it might not be your intent to race "dirty", your record in SNAIL thus far is less than exemplary in that regard. Keep in mind here, intent is akin to opinion in that everyone has "one". Intent matters little. Actions and results are what counts.

I'm being earnestly sincere here DP, you should seriously consider taking up the game of chess. If you learn to play it well enough it will teach you how to recognize consequences. If you get really good at chess, you'll be able to recognize not just immediate reactions to your actions but inevitable conclusions. The concept of recognizing what could happen, then picking the path that leads to the best outcome, can be applied to every aspect of life. "Winning" isn't always the best outcome either.
