Hi folks,

My son just bought his first car, a 2014 Acura ILX.

It’s in relatively decent shape except for a few things I was hoping for input on.

1. the driver rear door lock doesn’t respond to the key fob. I’ve read it could be a worn out actuator. Is that hard to replace as a DIY? Anyone done it? I couldn’t seem to find any YouTube vids on it. I imagine it’s a pricey fix at the dealer.

2. the backup camera shows the guidelines but no image (just black). Probably just replace the camera itself? Easy to do?

3. we notice some slightly jerky or halting acceleration when starting out, especially accelerating to highway speed. It’s the 2L automatic. Any idea how to correct that?

I mean just that one champ that triggers irrational anger when you fight them 😅

I know there’s probably more than one. But for me, it’s Ekko. I don’t know what it is about him, but his abilities and audio just annoy the heck out of me. Even some of the more typical irritating champs like Lux or Veigar don’t piss me off like Ekko does.

How about you?

I’m trying to help my son buy his first car. There’s a decent 2012 Camry LE, 158,700 kms, $15K CDN nearby (private sale). No rust or accidents. But he’s convinced it’s “too old”. My feeling is the age doesn’t matter THAT much if it was well maintained and the kms aren’t super high. Thoughts on that? And the price?

Hi folks,

When I try to play Vlad I feel like I’m tickling the other team. Then I see some Vlads just stomp and get big kills. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I play basic ARAM almost exclusively.

When I ult nobody seems to die lol. I use transfusion and it…sorta hurts? I try the third ability and by the time it goes off I’m focused and dead.

I tried watching some how-to videos and I swear it’s always 25 mins of some guy doing ok but not explaining anything he’s doing, so it doesn’t help.

I’m wondering if a good Vlad player could explain how they go about using his abilities in team fights (order, timing, whatever)?

I’m genuinely curious why I see so many rebuilt status used cars for sale on Facebook marketplace. And it’s almost entirely by folks from abroad as far as I can tell. Nothing inherently wrong with that but it’s noticeable. Are they car flipping or…why always rebuilt? Whats the deal? (Canada).

Today a pediatrician told my wife and 15 year old daughter he’s “not concerned at all”, and they use a different BMI scale for kids/teens. She’s 60th percentile for weight.

But she isn’t eating and she has lost a lot of weight. She’s very very thin. Something is clearly wrong. Now I won’t be able to help her because the Doctor just neutered my ability to push for treatment by saying everything is fine. My wife is very dismissive of it now.

What should I do?

Love my EGO mower to be clear. This is my third summer with it.

We had a week of very heavy rain and my grass got quite long. It’s laying down in areas and trying to rake it to prep for mowing hasn’t helped.

I’ve always found the mower doesn’t lift the grass enough. But can usually mow often enough that it hasn’t mattered.

For those of you who’ve encountered a similar situation: does the high lift EGO blade improve this significantly? Or are there other solutions that worked?

Hi folks

Going on my third season with an EGO 21 inch standard 56v self-propel mower.

The battery has always worked great, the self-propel is peppy, mower starts and runs great.

But it just lacks lift for the grass.

Right now our grass is too long because we had a week of *very* heavy rain in which we couldn’t mow and the grass was in heaven.

Now it’s laying down in a lot of spots - almost looks like fur in places!

I tried to stir it up with a weed whacker but it’s still laying down in spots.

The darn EGO just doesn’t lift enough to cut long grass. I wish it had one of those plastic rake attachments on the front to help with that (our old Troy Bilt had one).

Is the only solution to go back to a stronger gas mower? Do the high-lift blades from EGO help? I’d have tried one already but they are oddly hard to get in Alberta for some reason.

I play regular ARAM 98% of the time and I really like Vayne…but I also really underperform with her. She’s was wondering if you guys could recommend a rune and item build to use with her. I find I’m dying before I can complete kills.

This is why I hate buying used cars lol.

Buyer says no accidents. Great! We go check out the car, seems decent, good test drive. Dude seems decent enough. I’m about to book a $200 PPI.

Spend $80 on Carfax just for due diligence.

Two accidents. One is last summer. One is several thousand dollars.

So now I’m out 80 bucks. Just like that. I assume you guys would bail on the sale? Or am I being too picky? It’s a 2010 Mazda.

Can people really not get their facts straight on accident history?

Does light smoke have the same rules as regular smoke, with the only distinction being it’s guaranteed to dissipate next turn?

For the love of God. I can’t take 12 more days of this - every game of ARAM I’ve played today has been cat mode. Do not enjoy it. Just want to play regular ARAM with the cool skins. And when I say as much in the chat, other people seem to agree.

Make it optional! Please!

And if there’s a way to turn it off, please enlighten me :)

And can I opt out of it somehow? I mean it’s cute I guess but I’d rather just play regular Wild Rift. (I play ARAM mostly).

So I know from googling that this is a heat pump error or failure. It shows up at the end of each wash cycle (started about a week ago).

But…our dishes are coming out clean, no residue or food debris etc.

Does that mean I don’t actually need to replace the pump?

Well this was weird:

I used the digital ID thing like AC seemed to want me to. Boarding was awesome - just look at a camera.

But after everyone had boarded, and were getting ready to depart etc, the gate agent came to my seat and asked to see my photo ID.

I obliged but…what? What was the point of that lol? It was strange.

When Nikki seems to look at Bear in horror and screams “it’s not me?” I couldn’t hear her) - right after reciting part of her book:

- did the book part make the real Nikki start taking over and the “other” Nikki flip out?

- or is the real Nikki emerging, flipping out and trying to hurt herself with the bottle (almost attacking the “thing in her head” in a way)?
