    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    I can relate to this, but I've learned that it's not a reasonable expectation when dealing with human beings. If you are the type to deeply consider your beliefs and make a truly open minded decision based on facts and then are willing to change it based on new learning then you're one in a...

    Home buying thread

    Late to the party, but with a good renter it's like free money. With a bad renter it's a nightmare. There are management companies that can deal with the renters for you for a commission. If you're not the type to stay on top of that stuff and willing to confront people or kick them out when...

    Just think, all the babies conceived in tents at this event are in their junior year in high school now.

    I've never seen it but I don't know of any particular reason it wouldn't work. Might take a lot of adapting I suppose because the pressure tank, switch, gauge, check valve, etc. are all threaded. New sediment filter is installed and the water is working. Thank god.

    Home Improvement

    I had some homeowner fun the last couple of weeks. We have a house that my grandparents used to live in and it was rented out when I moved back to Montana I didn't want to displace them so I moved into an older, shittier house that was on a nearby ranch that we lease. 10 years later, the...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    My dad always refused to wear a seat belt and it wasn't because he was afraid of being trapped in the car either. Never really understood it. Seems like you could replace both the window breaker and the baseball bat with a 25 oz framing hammer. Don't think it's not a weapon, you can...

    The Machinist

    When I was looking at them a while back the one I settled on was the Lincoln Square Wave Tig 200 but it's a little more expensive than what you were looking at but you can't do too badly buying a lincoln or a miller. I didn't wind up buying it though. I already have a stick and mig welder and...

    Car ?'s

    They appeal to the "Look at me I'm saving the planet" douchebags and also the "Look at me I'm technologically advanced and part of the future" douchebags which makes them very hateable. Also from what I hear they're kind of buggy.

    Car ?'s

    Well the bluetooth part is easy. I use this thing in one of our tractors and it just works. I have actually replaced the head unit in several other machines to have bluetooth and frankly, I like this better than the pioneer receivers I've put in. 20 bucks and it just does what it's supposed...

    I happen to also have a degree in EE. It doesn't make it any easier to find a bad ground or an intermittent short somewhere in the 2 miles of largely inaccessible wiring in your car which you have no schematics for.

    That's my understanding as well. Diet is just not that big a part of what determines your colesterol and in the case of red meat the minor increase you will see in your bad cholesterol comes with a similar increase in good cholesterol which basically makes it a wash. I'm not sure if that...

    What Trump Can Teach Us About Con Law

    That's a given with NPR and NPR related podcasts. The slight exception is Freakonomics Radio. They are still fairly liberal, but they actually believe data and they know that socialism is retarded at least.

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    I think this play should be acknowledged in this thread. Juszczyk earned his highest paid fullback in the league status with that play alone, and it wasn't even his only highlight reel play from that game.

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    It depends on what you are planning to do and where you're located. If you're in Stockton California raising vegetables 25 acres would be huge. If you're in Elko Nevada with no irrigation 25 acres could barely keep a goat alive. When you're looking at properties, find out about the water...

    ^^Plus you can get a cradle for it that does wireless charging while you drive. I was pretty pissed off when they took away the headphone jacks but I've been living the bluetooth life for a couple years now and I don't mind it. The biggest frustration I have with it is my phone automatically...

    I think you mean the serpentine belt, not the timing belt. The timing belt has nothing to do with the air conditioner.

    Breaking Bad

    If you buy the idea that ultra purity is for some reason ultra valuable. I mean it would be nice if you were yielding 10% more per batch or something but the actual manufacturing costs are not the main cost of doing business for a drug cartel. I doubt he would have been considered too...

    Congratulations. You won't regret it. I'm still loving mine. It does have a little rust on it but other than that it's been flawless. I have a buddy that I told about them and he had one all ordered and then ran into an aggressive Traeger salesman who made him an offer he couldn't refuse...

    Season 2 was my favorite, but 3 was worth the time. I think I should probably rewatch all 3.

    The Machinist

    If a person wanted to just try to learn some machining stuff messing around in the shop, would you say it would be better to use something like that or pick up an old Bridgeport on Craigslist? Assuming you have plenty of space in the shop.

    Smartphones

    I just upgraded from a galaxy s8 to a pixel 3. I would classify the Samsung shit as "mildly annoying". I definitely prefer the pixel (aside from battery life) but I definitely wouldn't call it a deal breaker. The S8 is a nice phone with a little annoying crapware on it.

    From what I've read, the epoxy is very slippery when wet as well. I'm guessing it's not good if you ever want to weld or use a cutting torch in there either.

    Dave Chappelle

    Bill Burr is a big comedian but he is way less famous than Dave Chappelle and his audience is heavily male. Probably not on the radar of nearly as many SJWs.

    Not necessarily. I mean obviously a big enough generator could, but it would weigh a lot. For a short period of time you might get more current per pound out of dumping a bunch of charged batteries.

    I'm guessing it's an advantage in ships just for distribution. Those things are huge and I'd think it would be a benefit to just have your power plant at one point in the ship and then just run electrical cables to everywhere you need power. Obviously you need electricity for many things in...

    NFL 2019 Season: It's Tricky!

    These sexual assault cases are just a mess. There's no way to prove one way or the other if somebody spooged on your back several months ago, let alone whether you wanted him to do it or not. It could be true, could be a total lie, we will never know. It's almost impossible to have a fair...
