If it gets down to 6 here next week that's pretty cold for this area. In 1989 it got down to 5-6 in Baton Rouge and I'm 300 miles northwest of there. I remember 1989 because Exxon tried to empty an oil tank. It has been in the 40s the day before. That oil hadn't cooled off enough and the valve...

They changed the forecast. Tuesday low of 6. It's still raining a lot in Housotn.

I don't think it is , yet. Looks like the panhandle might be, just now reaching DFW. Nothing down here in east, TX. https://oksnowplows.org/ Some funny names. The last one a few years ago I was watching a stream of morning traffic on I-20 in Dallas just as it was getting daylight. People...

It's whiteish outside here in east, TX. Not snow, not sleet really. When they had the ice or snow pocalpyse a few years I lost power for a total of 20 minutes or so. My power is co op and comes from Lousiana 30 miles away. The co op is not great, but their office is minutes away and all their...

Reading reports of some coin shops and such not buy sterling siver and junk silver (old US coins that had silver in them) anymore. Larger silver places like ampex put a minimum to buy and to sell. Like $500 minimum to buy and $2000 to sell and such. Watched a video of a shop owner who said it...

Could of, should of...Silver was $21 or so per troy ounce a year ago. Today it broke $100 troy ounce.

Facebook might be, Google might be, the FBI isn't or the FBI would be raiding my house and my friends house. Just saying.

You know things are bad when Mathil is playing a coin pusher/casino simulation on stream for a few hours.

Most inspections are to make sure the building is not going to fall over 15 minutes after inspection, burn down due to bad wiring and such. Very little to make sure it is actually built "right" or good.

It is funny seeing all the hype and such on how to prepare for cold weather. I mean it's super rare, it's not like it gets cold every year in winter. What will we do? I can sere prolonged cold weather but some of the hype stories, don't leave your pets outside. Gee no shit? It's 10 degrees, I...

Put the shit on the porch if it's too cold to have the power restored.

Pretty sure Tesla is sucking up all the driver info from Telsa cars/drivers to fuel their AI self driving car. But at least those people know it, or should know it.

If it's as cold as they say it's going to be for as long it's going to push the season back. Of course forecast are always wrong. Plenty of water this year though.

Someone sent me a meme and I deleted it. Walmart released a statement about the cold weather. Make sure you wear 2 pairs of pajamas when you go to walmart to buy snow supplies.

The only crawfish I normally eat are boiled and they are bought fresh/live coming from the spillway. Too early for that. Easter is the big one normally and then onward. During low water/drought a few years ago it was a huge no go. Fresh when you buy it by the sack from a guys truck who just...

Was curious because sometimes the names I see have nothing to do with the color. That fits pretty well.

Mispost.

Eating chicken and sausage jambalaya for lunch. Soon about to be good gumbo season.

Well that was beyond s tupid. Honor mode and I took a whole party to Orion because the fight sucks for me. So entire party but me died in first or second round while I whacked on Orion. I couldn't take the 13 layers of unstoppable off in one round solo. I never took any damage. I charmed her...

Forecast are always wrong, at least I hope so. Later in the week down to 19 and heavy rain all day. Be a good day to just blow off anything involving a vehicle. Says up to 5" of rain late in the day which is when it's going to 19. I can hear the crack of limbs coming off trees already. Somone...

I own a mill and lathe. I've done a lot of gunsmithing. The only thing that prevents someone from ordering a mill and lathe and making a new good as new firearm is it gets tricky doing rifeling. But it can be done. Just more work than 3d printing, but it also doesn't require something else like...

My house is paid for and has been for a long time. Peace of mind basically. If I were to lose my job at some point along the way my options were very limited without drastic downsizing. To sell or move all my stuff in my shop would get expensive moving it or losing the stuff, like mills, lathe...

Been a crappy week. Last week got a letter my insurance was not being renewed. I pay for my own. I called and the person I talked to put it on changes to the subsidies with affordable care act. I don't get that but from what I gather it's a made house. I got new insurance for now a least. Fell...

Thanks. Geared for the up oming Rampocolypse obviously.

This will turn into the "you know you are old". At one time haed a Cyrix in the era you had to buy a math co-processor to go with the CPU for certain things like AutoCad. Had a 386/486 for years. None of my motherboards lookes near that nice. I went to a small computer place to have them build...

To make it softer duh, then walk off like she is dumb for asking.

No it's just like it sounds. You rarely see them in drag vehicles. Instead of a torque convertor that allows you to stop and it idle while in drive you have a cluth. You need to step on the clutch when you stop or the engine dies. But once you start moving you don't need to clutch when the auto...

Is there a name for that color or finish?

I didn't either, there was no place that required it nearby. The only place that had it growing up was a few streets downtown around the capital. Out where people lived, not so much. Had a manual transmission drivers ed car at 14. Nowdays it's the best theft deterent your car can have.

I'm so old the age to drive was 15 and drink 18. Driving test was pull the car onto the road, drive a mile down the road, pull into a giant wharehouse and turn around in the parking lot and go back. 10 minutes or less. Only so many places to go. My car was a hand me down drag car. Cluthed...

I'm a boring person. My truck is similar in color to died mud. It has metalflake in it that looks a lot like pine pollen when it falls on the vehicles. Actually lazy in that I don't want to wash my truck all the time. I had a red truck and a red car long time ago, when I didn't livd mong all the...

Necro. But is Boston Dynamis AI or just programmed to do some thing? I mean AI is the mega buzzword, get on board.

No matter how many times you click the deal for fewer shorts they never go away and you don't get fewer of them. It may have changed but some time back if you accidentily clicked on one it was added to your history and you couldn't get rid of it. I've heard a youtuber with a large channel that...

Ride through suburb of where you grew up. Stop at 5 way stop with lights, lanes everywhere. I wasn't driving. Say shit like "In high shool on my 15th birthday I took my drivers license test right here when it was a blinking yellow and blinking red. Came here because it was so quiet. 40 years...

I had an appointment Tuesday with a doctor I had never been to. When I made th eappointment a month ago the nurse said they would call. Monday at noon I hadn't heard anything so I called. No answer. Called again a little later, no answer. So I check the number and their website says the same. So...

That was my girlfriends department and like said I had veto power since I owned the house. Only thing I wanted was really light colored walls in my detached office since I work at home. I have a 4' tall by 6' tinted glass set in a wall like a window. Someone gave me the glass and I just fit it...

If I remember right the guy had a rock gareden and painted the walkway to the front door and the rocks pink as well. I did notice the guys parents didn't live on the same street as him. I'm not a HOA person but I can't believe in Austin or around Austin they got away with it, HOAs are...

US Mint released they will stoppages from time to time of selling silver coinage due to the price going up so fast they need time to keep up. Kind of makes you wonder what they were doing before? Nah they were ahead of the increase in cost to begin with. I think collapse I think people jumping...

There is a guy on ar15.com that lives in Austin or nearby and one of his neighbors had a mentally challanged son that moved into a house a block away from his parents and near him. Pink house. I mean 100% pink. He used ot post pics of it not sure if they finally moved or what. Driving down...
