How (and why) to Ramble on your goat sideways
The gripe I have with lower quality open end and flare wrenches is that they typically are made from lesser strength material and thus tend to have really large, clubby, oversized heads which don't fit into even remotely tight places. Nothing is more frustrating that having the right sized wrench available, but you can't get it on the bolt.

Dammit, I wish I hadn't missed this. What a stupidly good deal. Someone lucked out. Anyone here?

I would be more likely to believe standard 3rd world corruption and theft of earmarked public money.

As far as what working in the game industry is like, it's hugely variable based on what kind of work you do, how good at it you are, and who you are working for. Generally speaking, there is not a lot of job security and the hours can be long.

No surprise here. Saddam would be proud of this move.
Turkey's government has decided to close down dozens of media outlets, including 45 newspapers and 16 television stations in the wake of a failed military coup, the country's state-run news agency reported Wednesday.
CNN Turk reported that 130 media organizations had been shuttered in a widening crackdown by Recep Tayyip Erdogan's government. The list also 23 radion stations, three news agencies and 15 magazines. Many of those targeted were regional media outlets as well as several organizations that had already been seized by the state over alleged links to Fethullah Gulen, the U.S.-based cleric accused of being behind the failed uprising.
The state-run Anadolu Agency also reported that close to 1,700 military officers have been formally discharged.
In all, nearly 16,000 people have been detained for questioning over suspected links to the coup attempt, and about half have been arrested to face trial, Interior Minister Efkan Ala said Wednesday.

If you are interested in the art side of development, I would not suggest going back to school. Instead start reading the polycount forums and teaching yourself. Aside from the cost, most school programs have limited value. Video game tech moves quickly. The vast majority of people teaching skills related to games (at least from the art side, can't speak to the programming side) haven't done significant work in games for years. This means that the knowledge you are getting from them is already out of date. Also, because things change so quickly, you will need to constantly be learning on the job so ultimately you will be self teaching anyway (or else you will be out of a job as quickly as you got one).

Seriously though, that year range the only thing that sucks *** is the auto trans. If it's not already built you'll have to do it eventually for a couple grand. Even if the auto wasn't a weak point and worked as intended, I would still take the manual 10 out of 10 times. Don't have to play bullshit games like trying to get the TC to lock so you don't roast the trans going up hills, and you can actually use cruise control with the manual. In the auto, even a slight incline and it will drop a gear, unlock TC and start frying the trans while basically sitting at redline.
I have a lot of miles spent in an E350 towing a 26 foot enclosed and the trucks are just way more stable, my initial thought is go with an F250 and an enclosed trailer. The awesome cargo space in the van isn't worth it.

Understatement of the year. Yours was owned by a full on failure of a person. They shouldn't still be alive.
Whats a manual swap look like?
Lars needs a rape van. It just fits him.
I also want to take it to MATG and tear up the tail of the dragon.

I had suspected some of these items in the American diet were responsible for ADHD occurrence being so much higher here. The epidural part was also pretty interesting.
