  1. This will sound crazy, but...clean brake fluid.
  2. My scratched to shit S3 sold on ebay for $176 plus shipping. So the broken one still has some value. Pristine ones go for $200 and brand new S3s are $250.
  3. The logic tells me that scratching the case is easier, and just as annoying. So let me know in a few months if you think about it.
  4. Is the screen still as smooth and slippery as glass? I mostly would rather just have the wear, the effect on resale value seems to be tiny--$30 or so.
  5. Since you brought this up again.... HOLY SHIT THAT SCREEN! It's just fucking amazing. So much more space and info on it, yet it's more clear and larger too. I still look at the screen and get distracted by how fantastic it looks. I really like the Apple fabric Sport Loop. The best thing a watch can do for me is be light and not noticeable, that does the best job. The Amazon $12 clone of that band was good, but the Apple one is certainly better.
  6. I suppose the uncanny correlations "prove" horoscopes are real? What I know of scorpio is killers and hotheads who throw things.
  7. Feb 18, 2019 - Today you might need to run some errands, Scorpio, but they might prove difficult for a number of reasons. The errands could be personal or business related. Communication may be temporarily blocked. Messages may not be delivered or you could be playing phone tag. On days like this, you need to make a special effort to keep cool. Nothing is so important that you have to drive yourself crazy.
  8. Ahahahahah!! A horoscope believer. You can't make up shit this funny.
  9. Found it at a neighbor's house. What a huge upgrade. At least as big a leap as my move from a 0 to a 2. That screen! And the speaker is so much clearer and louder (the other one was already good enough for real speakerphone use). Haptics are clearer, and the crown is much better, again. The official Apple cloth loop is definitely a little better than the $12 Chinese one, although if I were paying, I still wouldn't drop $50 on the Apple version. But I'm glad I got it for nothing. I wish someone here would have recommended that I upgrade.
  10. The pin is now inside a house, and hasn’t moved in five minutes. I wonder if my neighbor abducted him.
  11. Is it an addiction if I refresh this page every five seconds?
  12. Fuck you, BTW. Amazon had it with the sport loop band at the same price as the shitty rubber one, minus a $5 discount, minus the 5% for using the Amazon Prime card...
  13. Sam's had a great deal for a while, but it's sold out. What's your broken one worth on eBay? There's always a buyer. Mine will probably get $200, scratched up but not broken.
  14. Asshole. I had just put it out of my mind after not being able to find any smoking deals on it.
  15. Slapper, Oscar, and I get together in Southern California. A lot of beer and whisky is consumed. The ghosts of both Tomek's mom and Obama visit us in our sleep. We wake up horrified, in tears, and start drinking again. We call this, "Tuesday."
  16. I don't see the connection.
  17. But what if they were organic pads?
  18. I just put EBC pads and no-name DOT 4 fluid in the Chinese adventure bike. So basically, I'm gonna die, right?
  19. But is your mom?
  20. It could have an internal balance circuit. There is absolutely no way to keep a Lithium battery balanced without some intelligent electronics being connected to EACH cell individually. You can always put a meter on the balance leads to see how similar or different they are.
  21. Once again, a Cuban approaches Tomek in his sleep, touching him, hurting him, fueling his obsession.
  22. Any DOT 4.
  23. All brake fluid is synthetic. Seriously, go find a natural-based version of brake fluid, it hasn't existed in a very long time. Dot 3, 4, and 5.1 are some variation of polyethylene glycol. That's it. "Synthetic" on the bottle is a marketing gimmick, and all PEG is hygroscopic. DOT 5 is silicone, also synthetic, and is NOT hygroscopic. It is the only one that can't be mixed with any of the others. Switching to 5 requires all new seals and flushing the system completely. It's likely that the above is just someone falling for a marketing gimmick with zero value.
