    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Yeah, my current suspicions are either the transmission, or one of the two turbos (which operate off RPM obviously, but only kick in when in gear and needed... Which is exactly when and how I hear this sound) Sounds like that gadget from Amazon might be worth it if I have to solve this mystery...

    The Marvels (2023)

    I think the biggest thing said in the last few pages of this thread are that the super hero movie genre as a whole has gotten to the point that not only are they producing crap, they're producing such forgettable crap that many of us have forgotten the crap (i.e. Shang-chi, Eternals, etc...)

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    Took my car to the dealership because I can't figure out what's causing a whirring I have heard whenever I accelerate since I took a shredded 18 wheeler blowout across the front of my car. (only happens when in gear, but somehow the whirrr varies it's pitch to my RPM, not my wheel speed) It's...

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    So I'm gonna have to go have a finish to my sports cry after this but.... There was actually a reason. LeClerc has NEVER pitched three days in a row. Would you want to risk that? Also Sborz had his game on.

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    I know I'm a Rangers fan. I know the national broadcasters aren't going to be the homers that the home broadcast team are. But I swear I have not seen a broadcaster slurping one particular teams ballsac this hard in possibly my entire life.

    I think the government won't have an option other than to fire the QE machine again. But I don't think that will happen until after the next presidential elections, probably mid 25. New president gets sworn in, decides the only way out is to grow our way out of debt, plugs the QE machine back in.

    Home costs update continuously. Rents are paced to the usual 6 month or 1 year rental contract terms, but also rise, just slower. The cost to own an apartment building isn't going up for any given apartment building past what property taxes increase so long as the owners either own the...

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    Why would I replace the coax? Unless something eats away at it? But yeah, if I wanted to just drop $200 I could throw a HD Homerun box in the house. But that also adds complexity to the Google TV setup (You have to choose the HD Homerun app and navigate that and I'm dealing with a 74 year old...

    OK. OTA dilema for my mom's house. I have antenna runs to the TV's in the house. But one of the TVs is an older HD set. It's great, and the right size (55") for the space, but it's interface absolutely sucks. My mom is used to the Google TV she has in her room, so looking for a google tv...

    Oh, and as for the last series. It was interesting having a series where there was functionally no home field advantage in terms of fans. With the cities only being a 3.5 hour drive apart there were easily 30% or more in Astros fans at the games in Dallas I went to. And for those who don't...

    MLB 2023: Houst*n wins, America loses

    One thing I took from the game last night... The Rangers have gotten very much into the "big ball" game and sprinkling the occasional nice baserunning work into it. The Diamondbacks are purveyors of the old school "small ball" manufacturing runs method. Part of me wishes the Rangers had a...
