    I have been feeling sorry for myself, but not as much as I should have apparently. Montana just endured one of the nation’s most exceptional cold spells on record - The Washington Post

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    With Ford and most likely Bosa, the 49ers D-line is going to be scary as shit. We do need some help in the secondary badly though.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Usually if you fake your death it's something like "lost at sea, bodies were unrecoverable." It's pretty hard to fake getting your throat slit in front of a room full of people.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I just got the same one. I started it out with it in the left corner of the windshield which seems like a good place for it until I have to use it for something and have to do it left handed. I think I have confirmed that me trying to text left handed and at arm's length is way more dangerous...

    The Americans

    It's been said a million times in this thread already, but "The Americans" is a family drama with some spy shit as a complication. If you're looking for "24" or even "Homeland" then this isn't your show.

    Smartphones

    My Galaxy S8 will sometimes jump from 20% to zero and shut down. Then if you put it on the charger for a few minutes and turn it back on, it will be at 21% and drain normally from there. Strange. I have wireless charging stands now everywhere that I'm likely to sit down during the day and I...

    I'm not a plumber but I wouldn't be afraid to do that. The P-trap is just to keep sewer gas from coming back into your house and I don't think a foot of pipe in front of it would make any difference in that.

    2019 NFL Offseason: Chargers Started Early

    Failing with back to back first round quarterbacks would make you a laughing stock for a good long time I would think and I don't know if Murray is a sure thing either. I didn't pay much attention during the season, is Rosen really that bad?

    Seared tuna steaks are pretty great. I love seared salmon as well, with brown butter and capers and maybe some lemon pepper seasoning.

    That's because being a snob is your favorite activity. Sushi snobs pretend it's all about the fish but 95% of the flavor and texture in sushi comes from the rice, the soy sauce, and the wasabi. People that eat sashimi and don't dip it in anything are doing it to show off how sophisticated...

    Chuk believes in some implausible things, but then gets super offended if you think he believes in others. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

    True Detective

    I liked the season. The ending was very unexpected, which I liked. Some big pedo cult with the chicken guy at the head of it would have been the way we all expected it to go so having a more low-key almost happy ending was kind of a nice twist. I'm surprised people liked the biker bar scene...

    A good fence will probably cost more than that saw. It will work though, you will just have to be careful to get it square on cuts where it's important.

    I would think the glass fiber would be a bad idea just because it would come out while you were polishing.

    Best phone games?

    Honestly I'd rank the first 3 pretty equally. The new one isn't bad but they added a bunch of complications that didn't add up to much because the levels are too easy except for the last 3 or so and so far there's no bonus levels. It will probably get better with a few more patches.

    Smartphones

    It seems to be a special talent of mine. I don't know anyone who goes through charging ports as frequently as me but that's why I'm all wireless now. This one was especially amazing because I only used the cord in the car. All the home chargers are wireless. Now the car ones are too.

    Yeah, it's not too bad once you get away from the edge. At least if you have an asphalt shingle roof you have excellent traction. If it's a steel roof not so much.

    My S8 is showing its age. Front and back are cracked and both the charging plug and the headphone jack have gone bad. Won't be getting another Samsung phone. All of their bullshit software is just a huge turnoff for me, particularly the Bixby button and the prices are just out of whack. If...

    A friend of mine used to work for HP and their policy was that as long as your manager would sign off on it you were good. He was in town once and I went out with him and 2 other HP people and we ran up a $300 tab on steaks and booze and they were like "Dave's going to laugh his ass off at this...

    LEDs in a car wouldn't require a ballast/driver. That is to convert 120v AC power to DC and an appropriate voltage for LEDs. In a car the LEDs could run directly off of the 12v DC from the car battery. I've often wondered if all light bulbs eventually become LEDs if houses will start to be...

    Sorry for your loss. My Dad was killed in a similar work related accident in 2008 when he was 55 years old. I think that you are correct that the machinery needs to be sold and the money should go to your Mom. It's a no-brainer really. When the time comes, either consign it to a machinery...
