    Liquors & Cocktails

    sorry for the necro, but i can relate. if you're networking, that's kind of something where you have to bite the bullet. there's some industries where that's part of the gig. my best friend manages a steakhouse, it's like jumping a tax bracket anytime i hang out w/ him. depending on who...

    I hope this gets made with phoned in efforts from the actors and its better than the 2016 flop

    Amazon Echo - no thread yet?

    The ADP smart things uses a different frequency than normal smart things(and diff hub), which I think means you can buy the cheaper sensors but have to pay the subscription

    Marvel's The Punisher

    Season was ok for me. Im ready to move on to a new actor to play daredevil. Berbthal is too small and honestly, he's always the same on screen. It worked in this, but no way he works in the movie s. He's supposed to fill captain America aat one point, don't see it.

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    my washer is about 10 years old, Sears. shame the company is going tits up. they could probably be successful as a brand and sell through Amazon or other brick and mortar stores. the washer did stop draining a few months ago. it would spin, but no water leave. so called a guy out, we...

    Black Panther (2018)

    the academy is always about circle jerking itself. i see this as the gateway movie for them to recognize a comic book movie for best picture. they can't stop being wrong compared to what audiences actually want to see. I don't think they really think this was potentially the best movie of...

    Spider-Man: Far from Home (2019)

    thanks, gonna skip all MCU related trailers until I see End Game. I mean, we know Spiderman is coming back, but i rather pretend I don't know that going into the next movie. Knowing which actors have movies left on their contracts and don't is too much as it is.

    Amazon Echo - no thread yet?

    Echo can control all the tp link switches and the line. Smart things, Phillips hue, and some others use a different frequency. Tp link uses 802.11. Those other things require a hub to bridge over. That's where the cost jumps, and why I don't see any reason to get into Phillips. Echo or...

    Industrial? (Ministry, CombiChrist?)

    NIN and Tool fall into this a bit i guess, and maybe Ramstein? Anyways, i'm sure there's new stuff that sounds like this. recommend me something I probably haven't heard. or classic that might be less known?

    Aquarists unite: fish are friends, and food

    bubbles are for surface agitation, more surface area, more o2 mixing into the water. the bubbles themselves don't add o2 to the water. if your filter agitates the top of the water enough, you don't need bubblers, unless you like the pirate ship treasure chest that opens every few seconds :)

    my X had the same thing about 4 years ago. she slipped going down the stairs (no, i didn't push her), and had a hair line fracture on the transverse processes(sp?), the little spikes on your vertebra that muscles attach to that allow you to twist and turn. after a few weeks, it mostly went...

    i'm surprised chuck got OK'ed to fight. every time he spoke in an interview the last few years, you could tell he was extremely high, Oxycontin probably. Dana's interview where he's slamming Golden Boy was spot on, but he should have known given Chuck was his friend that he had a problem.

    Home Security Systems

    Woot got me interested in Arlo Smart | Intelligence for your Arlo. $10/month for 10 cameras and 30 days of cloud storage. seems like a pretty simple system to setup, and can record local as well. just curious if there's a system that's got zero monthly.

    X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019)

    i hope the ending is them all fading from a snap, this trailer looks terrible. they totally don't get why the MU movies succeed. they use the comic story foundation, but develop the story for the screen.

    if you are going to counter a Moe's vs Chipotle w/ another location, you should at least propose something w/ at least a few locations. of course any single location, family owned, authentic, etc. etc. place is going to be better. speaking of AZ, and believe me when i say i love my TexMex...

    starting the process myself and this is likely what we'll be doing. we don't have much in savings, so whoever moves out really can't until we sell/buyout. are you going to buyout/refinance before the divorce is final? is there any reason you need to do one before the other?
