click on for sale and it will show you all the buildings that you can buy, and how much income those buildings give

Point a gun at a store clerk, wait for him to place the money on the counter, take it, and then get rid of your wanted level.

is that all? like the burger place for example... i point a gun at him, but he doesn't do anything. my friend told me that u had to "target" or something (this is from PS2 version though), but that button doesn't seem to work for me... the default is right click or delete right?

how the heck do you get rid of cheats once you enable one? I was messing around and enabled the cheat so everyone fights with each other and now its mayhem all the time. Funny thing is, this actually helped the remote control helicopter mission cause all the dudes kicked each others butts while I flew around. lol. relieved finally, i didnt want to do it again so I saved the game. not sure if I made it worse for myself.

How the hell do I get the Tank on that mission?

I just went to the docks and parked a truck on the road. Then I just stand around a corner and shot all the soldiers and blew up their trucks :). After that the tank was just easy to grab, lol.

Right now I at the mission to save Lance, but everytime those nasty asses blow up the truck, and you can't really escape without it.

I tried couple times to save Lance and didn't make it :p

Then I found a way which after saving Lance and instead using the car, I used the garbage truck because it's lot stronger than using the sedan :p

lol, i've tried that mission about 6 times! its a right pain. i saved him, then when we went to get into a car, i thought "i know, i'll spawn a tank, then they can't ram me. so i did, but the dam thing spawned right on top of Lance!

i gave up after that and just drove round for a bit.

TIP: easy way to make money on that mission - kill everyone on blasting your way in and they drop loads of cash. as i had to redo the mission like 6 times, i got rich :)

any one bought that cherry poppers ice cream place?

if you did please tell me how many of those deals am i suppoed to do for that buzness to start making money by it self?

i did about 102 once, and then i got busted.

how many more

    • Vantrue knocks up to 38% off two of its newest Dash Cams for Prime Day by Steven Parker Vantrue reached out to us here at Neowin saying they have a couple of dashcams with deep discounts during the Prime Day Sale. First up we have the Vantrue N4 Pro S that received a mega 36% off its normal MSRP of $419.99 (buying links below). Here are a few of its highlights: Flagship 4K 3CH Dash Cam w/ Triple STARVIS 2: Vantrue's flagship N4 Pro s Dash Camera features 4K+2.5K+1080P /30FPS 3 channel recording powered by Triple STARVIS 2 sensors. Dash cams deliver 155°+160°+165° wide-angle coverage for complete blind-spot-free protection. Whether navigating city traffic, monitoring passengers, or capturing scenic views, this professional-grade car dash camera ensures smooth, detailed footage day and night.

Experience unmatched performance on nocturnal drives, where the system captures clear, readable license plates of vehicles traveling at speeds up to 31mph. Flexible 360° Rear Camera & Front+Rear Recording Modes: The rear dash camera features a 2.5K STARVIS 2 sensor with 360° rotation, enabling seamless traffic or trunk monitoring.

    • The concern of this article is not getting "hacked". No one is taking over my Google account and anyone that was is far away from self-hosting their passwords. It was about your big tech account of choice deciding to reduce features or getting out of the password manager business altogether. Bitwarden (or say Proton) is professional security company offering opensource solutions. They are going no where and one can easily download or export their passwords to another password manager service regardless. They again also offer self-hosted option. I doubt many people were sold on this solution based on the write up. The author had a number of warnings and caveats themselves. A local, self-managed solution is not for 99% of users.
    • I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
