Fuck dealerships, they've made their own bed and deserve their slow demise. I can't think of another product that has more layers of bullshit between me and getting an actual price on something. I'm for anything that means I don't have to set foot in one.

I had a tech come out tonight to do maintenance, about the only criticism (other than the age) was the humidifier was a colossal piece of shit - to the point they won't touch that brand. Heat exchanger was perfect, no cracks or leaks - he was kind of surprised based on the model I had. I think...

Furnace is getting a bit long in the tooth - over 20 years old now. Guts are still in perfect shape, but I figure it's best to not tempt fate. Plus, I think the blower might be a bit weak - 2nd floor tends to be a bit hotter/cooler than the first/basement. Am I crazy? Thoughts on high efficiency...

I like the chrome delete on the trim, wish the wheels were murdered out too, though.

It seems like every studio should always say they're going to edit their work so they can get a sweet free sword delivered. Oblig Random: GIS free sword delivered

I just think from a pure business perspective he overpaid by quite a bit considering all the problems they'd had with monetizing the platform and won't ever recoup even close to what he put out for it. Anyway, I get what you're saying, bad example by me, let's get back to laughing at teams that...

There's something to be said for that, but in terms of payout during the contract, Strasburg has less than 10 starts since signing his deal and he's 4 years into it with 3 left to go. That's pretty brutal. Watson hasn't looked great, so, he might come out the champion. I give him a higher...

Excuse me if I'm talking out my ass, but the one on the left looks like it wasn't milled at all, so, is it possible that's a rough cut piece of lumber? Or is that what finished lumber looked like in 1946? Wow at the rings on that 1946 piece. I imagine that 1946 wood is a lot more dense. Is...

I'd argue Twitter was probably the worst purchase of anything of all time. In the sports world he's got to be neck and neck with Strasburg.

Lions of old get that field goal blocked, Chargers then proceed to return the block, but step out at the 1 yard line. Overtime ends in tie as we reach a singularity of failure as each team proceeds find new, unique ways to throw away the game. Sorry Charger bros, hopefully this helps get Staley...

Seems doubtful to me. He's in a great situation in Detroit, but I suppose everyone has a price. If the Lions won a Super Bowl this year and they backed up the Brinks truck to his house, I could see it. Would open the door for Ben Johnson to take over - I think he's going to get a HC job...

A long time ago, I designed some equipment that worked on around 400 VDC. When testing it, the only equipment available was an AC 480V load bank. Each individual bank was switched by a breaker I was pretty positive wouldn't be able to interrupt DC, so, I would shut down whenever I'd have to...

Depends on whatever blackmail Chuba has that's allowing him double the touches of Miles Sanders will hold up. Bears run defense is pretty stout, but you never know this could be a very sloppy game.

Bucks still won the game despite that BS, bet they didn't cover though... Is anyone actually impressed by Cade Cunningham? Dude can fill up a stat line, but if you actually watch him play, he's taking ill advised shots, committing sloppy turnovers, and generally not helping the team win. He was...

I'm not opposed to following recommendations, but I'm not a big fan of the default medical intervention being a pill, especially because at the time I was healthy and in my early thirties and it was the first time it was ever elevated. He pushed hard for a statin, I said I wanted to modify my...

Lipitor really fucked up my grandfather's memory when he was on it. He recovered, seemingly fully, once he was off it, but that really can't be good for the brain. It seems like they're continuously downplaying the risk of statins while also proceeding to pass them out like candy and lowering...

I really want to see full price and mileage stats. I'm interested enough that I put in the $100 for a reservation - mostly as a gamble to re-sell my spot in line if it's an early model, but I might bite if I like it regardless. 140 mile estimated range on the battery seems low considering it's a...

Definitely more Phillips or Torx than straight. I don't think I've ever seen one coupled with a straight driver. I feel like they mostly make these for electricians, but I like them for automotive applications - there is always some awkward fastener location that will dump a screw into the abyss...

You reminded me of a tool I'd been looking for forever. Same idea, holds the screw on mechanically without a magnet. A short search came up with this: https://www.micro-tools.com/products/f50078 This is close, but the one I used to use had 4 fingers instead of two. I wish I would have just...

But by adding those leapdays, we wouldn't be properly aligning ourselves to the cycles of the moon like that dumb image wanted! I wouldn't mind this calendar except for the fact that it feels like they phoned in the names for the last two months. They really couldn't do better than "Undecember"...

I drove it last winter, but it was definitely a launch edition vehicle. I guess, for reference, that powered tonneau cover on the vehicle I drove was completely dropped, it's not even available now. In a way it's too bad, it was nice conceptually, but it definitely sounded terrible in...

Except that only adds up to 364 days. Who gives a fuck if we're aligned with the moon when this causes summer in the Northern Hemisphere to end up around January after 100ish years.

I drove one for a day and started out hating it. It was the middle of winter and we had an ice storm the night before. They do the Tesla bullshit where you don't really start the vehicle, it's just ready to go when you get in the seat while possessing the fob. Normally that's fine, but I needed...

I think that trade is a no brainer. CMC is going to end up hurt again...

I fixed that guy's shirt for him

Fuck insurance, see if you have a place nearby that has cash prices. This place used to publish their prices online and even offered discounts/specials on the weekend. https://web.archive.org/web/20211021170924/http://openmri.bashaopenmri.com/cash-credit-payment/ I did the whole insurance...

Bought a whole-home generator last year and just had a guy come out for yearly maintenance. There are a few spots of rust on the black pipe at one of the unions, am I being unreasonable to assume that this should have been addressed? I know it's not really any impact to performance or safety...

Raiders look like trash. I think the Jimmy G experiment is finally over. I don't understand McDaniel's playcalling - they marched down the field and scored the one series they stuck with the run, then never really went back to it for the rest of the game.

I saw it yesterday, I'd rate it about 5/10. It feels like they had a solid 1 or 2 scenes/skits figured out and then cobbled the rest into a movie. You're not missing much if you skip it.

That's a pretty good start. What's your strategy (single games, parlays, props?). You should post your picks here so we can all take our wives to Aruba.

Looks like Derrick Henry might be on the trade block. Any predictions on who will take him as a rental? These trade predictions look a bit too lopsided, I don't see him going for more than one, maybe two mid to late picks. I wouldn't mind seeing the Lions take a shot at him with Montgomery out...

What kind of question is that?

I always wondered what happened to the I'm from the internet guy.

That looks like a good retrofit solution, but I hate their business model. Sell me the thing, don't make me subscribe to your stupid service. For the price, and recurring cost, I'd just start swapping out my breakers at my panel for afci ones. Then I'm better protected anyway since I'll trip...

How did she get that dirty and specifically in those places cleaning those guns? I don't think she's very good at this. I don't think I'd trust her to cook my dinner either.

She can cut the roof of my mouth any day. Oblig:

You might want to purchase now and pick up if you feel like doing the drive. I was eyeing the 44in bottom and they all got scooped up pretty quickly when they dropped down to 299.

His x-rays came back negative. Hopefully it was just a bad bruise and not a cartilage injury. I had one of those earlier this year and it kicked my ass for a couple of weeks.
