Little to none. It's a short drive to San Francisco or even Oakland/Berkeley though. I don't know how old you are, but if I were you I would stay close to your family. "Amazing" places to live are just places once you get there and you have to ask yourself how much you will really...

25% on Rotten Tomatoes. Pretty bad even for a comedy. Too bad, I had hope for it.

Generally you need either an elite QB or an elite run game and defense. There are exceptions to every rule of course. I think the Ravens D was better than their ranking indicated and Eli gets sort of elite in the playoffs sometimes (and also really lucky).

Yeah, but how much did you pay for it? NM I looked it up Galaxy S6 Edge is $29.16 a month so in 24 months it will cost you $699.84 which is actually 15 cents less than buying it outright. I guess I was incorrectly assuming that Verizon was charging you interest to buy on time.

I have a feeling that people will just buy phones on time even though it is most likely a huge ripoff but most people are incapable of saving a few hundred bucks. I actually kind of prefer to pay cash for my phones if there are good devices available in the $3-400 range. I paid $400 for my...

I was an electronics engineer and it wasn't like punching a clock. I usually worked on multiple projects that all had their own budgets so they had to know which projects to pay me out of on any given week.

That does seem a little better than the current deals. Right now I'm paying $80 a month for smartphone with 2GB of data, 400 min of talk, and no text plan. It sounds like I could get unlimited talk and text with 3GB of data for $65 now? I'm sure there will be some tax and fee bullshit that...

That is true.

Ugh, that dude is not going to make it. Goodbye to one more star for the 49ers and the worst off season in history continues.

I have heard of it as ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, and canned peas dumped over toast but I'm sure there are a lot of variations. I grew up eating a lot of casseroles that were ground beef + cream of mushroom soup + ingredients. You have to admit it's pretty tasty.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that saw that thing as a gigantic robo-penis.

If he's from Saint Louis he probably knows all about getting robbed and shot.

I don't know what industry Xequecal is in but do you know that you didn't sign an agreement not to do any side work in your current profession? I have had jobs where you had to sign stuff like that when you were hired.

When I was an engineer we had 2 secretaries for around 30 engineers. They didn't do much for us but they would remind me to fill out my time card every week.

I was going to say that all I know about Belize is that Butch and Sundance got shot there, but then I remembered that that was Bolivia so now all I know about Belize is that it's not where Butch and Sundance got shot.

Yeah, the musical guests were mostly really weird and I fast forwarded through them and some of the skits totally fall flat. The guy is really funny though. I also thought he was one of the best parts of Broad City.

I listen to George Noory for 10 minutes per night in the spring when I'm going over to check on my heifers at 2 AM. There was a guy on one night that was totally seriously explaining how fairies, leprechauns, and half a dozen other fantastical critters are real. I really wonder if they really...

I never went to a school with a lunch program. Now I understand that the schools around here serve both lunch and breakfast but there was none of that in my day. Parents actually had to feed their children.

I saw that CC was marathoning the first 5 episodes yesterday so I DVR'd them and watched last night. He's no Dave Chappelle, but I laughed quite a few times. They should have given him the nightly show because he's way funnier than Larry Wilmore.

I wonder why there are no sugar free otter pops. It seems like most people like them because they are low calorie, why not put some Aspartame or Splenda in those things and make them zero calories? I eat them frequently in the summer time but I always warm them up with my hands until I can...

Didn't have to use beets, we had our own fruit punch tree.

We did have our own cows, and made our Kool-aid from scratch.

I would say it probably got too hot but there is no reason to re-season that pan. Just cook something greasy in it for the next few uses. People spend way too much time worrying about cast iron pans, they are really not that delicate at all.

I never had anything store-bought in my lunch. Other kids had stuff like the juice boxes and Capri Sun pouches but I always had to make due with a thermos full of milk or kool-aid. We never got the microwave Schwann 5" pizzas either, just sandwiches or maybe some leftovers. Yes I am a child...

I love it when people who never post in this thread show up for a topic that was fucked out 6 months ago and start posting walls of text.

Most london broil that you see in the grocery store is just an extra thick round steak.

Yeah, me too. I don't put this even in the same ballpark as S1, but I have gone from "this sucks" to "this isn't that bad" over the last couple episodes and I could see myself getting as far as "pretty good" by the end depending on how it goes.

Ian McShane would have been awesome as Tywin Lannister. Not that Charles Dance wasn't, he totally was, but McShane would have hit that one out of the park as well.

I haven't read this thread but I have to say despite the fact that I was fairly tuned out in the first few episodes and thus have no idea what is going on now, I have enjoyed the last 3 episodes quite a bit. If the finale is awesome I may have to go back and re-watch the first half of the...

That's my impression as well. Read the news, shit out 50 hack jokes about the stories on twitter, then wait for someone to do something similar on TV so you can sue them. Fuck this guy.

There is a lot of this going on in the cattle business right now. Ranchers are making significant profits for the first time since the late 70's and they have been operating at break even or below for most of their lives so they can't stand the idea of paying income tax. There are tons of new...

Ditto for Kaepernick. His contract sounded big but he's never getting most of that money and they can cut him any time with pretty much no consequence.

Anybody know of an AM/FM radio that also has bluetooth and is rugged enough to survive in a shop? The only one I have found is theMakita LXTone which makes sense for me because I'm already heavily invested in Makita LXT power tools, but it costs $150 which seems a little steep to me to listen...

This has to be wrong. It has already been confirmed by the many TV experts on this forum that it is not possible for any TV series to go more than 7 seasons. HBO must be mistaken.

Mindstorms uses visual programming which is not that common but it is used in the real world. In my old job it was used extensively with LabVIEW to build automated testers and such.

I think we have successfully diagnosed Lurkingdirk with a brain tumor.

I expected him to be driving some kind of exotic sports car. Who knew Bentleys could go that fast?

It is pretty funny that people think that 49er fans are thugs now since for as long as I can remember the Raiders fans have made fun of 49er fans for eating quiche and drinking wine at their tailgate parties and in general being pussies.

Yeah, a lot of bots have a wedge on the front, and they did actually use their arm during the match. I don't see the problem.

I don't mind the filler personally, even the corny WWE type stuff. I hope having the show on national TV will bring in more builders though. When half the top guys are the same guys that were doing it 15 years ago when the show was on before it doesn't show much diversity.
