I've had several over the years and currently have Ring. The system was pretty cheap and the service is absolutely dirt cheap at $10/month. Just for system monitoring that is absurdly cheap. Combine it with it coverage cameras too and it's a steal. I've had it in two homes now and it has...

I've had a Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Hybrid for a couple of years and absolutely love it. I bought it in medium and it's perfect for me. My wife recently had her third back surgery and needs a firm mattress now so I went shopping again. I like it so much I ordered another one but this time two...

I got the Moderna. First shot had me feeling run down bad the next day, felt like shit. Second shot I didn't feel as bad but hit a fever of 101.5. I'd do it again but it was rough.

Found out we have a local remanufacturer. They've been around for years so not worried about the quality. Found them as I desperately need some 9mm. Picked up 115gr for $10/50 round box with a four box limit. 40S&W wasn't even a deal at $30/50 round box but I need to replace what I have to...

Going a little low end tonight, Jim Beam Old Fashions. Have some Lagunitas for later.

Im pretty impressed actually. It looks like there battery tech is going to be an advantage is packaging options. Next 6-12 months will be pretty interesting as the "skateboards" of the various manufactures come out. The cars themselves aren't nearly as interesting to me as the underpinnings...

Had mine for around three years with no issues. I've used mainly two cups the entire time averaging 7ish drinks a month. (it's my breakfast on dayshift working 12's, i.e. 7 shifts over a 28 day period., yes it's a wonderful schedule. )

If it has Onstar their is a pink wire that needs connected. I have a 2001 Suburban and had the same issue. A quick call to Crutchfield solved it. Connected that wire and it was good to go.

Its going to be a Plex box with sonar radar etc. mostly 4K. Some other back up but a distant second. One. feachure I plan automated transcoding to h.265 which the 2600 would help a lot. For play I intend to install a cheap P400 for transcoding. I dont have any customer just houshold use. I’f...

I am putting together an Unraid NAS. Picked up a 2700 to start with and now need a motherboard. The case I am looking at is Micro ATX but may end up with a full size so options for both would be appreciated. There will be no overclocking at all. I need as many full speed SATA as I can get...

May have posted before, dont come around as much as I used to. Currently have a 2001 Suburban I bought around 2006. Has been a damned good truck. I will replace it around 2021-2022 with a Ford Bronco unless it turns out to be a total turd. I wanted an FJ but at this point they are just to...

Cruises are not only for older folks. Length of cruise, itinerary, cruise line and time of year all make a huge difference. Carnival is by far leans to the younger crowd on the shorter trips, along with most other lines just because of price. Take a 3-4 trips during spring break season and...

When I bought my house I knew exactly dick about home repair/maintenance. Before even moving in I replaced every lighting fixture and ceiling fan (purely for aesthetics), two toilets plus your usual painting. I've replaced the washer, dryer, washing machine and faucets. One of my proudest...

Currently have a 2001 Chevrolet Suburban and love the damned thing. Had it for around 7 years and currently has 125k. I've done nothing but oil and brakes. When I drive it feels like I'm driving a Lazy Boy down the highway. I don't drive it much, less than 10k and more like 5k a year...

Very similar conversation me and my wife have been having. We both have Air 2's. She wants a new one. I asked why do you need a new one, what do you need to do that your current one doesnt? Still waiting for an answer. Hell I dont even have a desire for a new one. Only need so much power...
