  1. Usually what I find when people tell me that Jeep system was "useless."
  2. My Bronco with rear LS tried to kill me coming off the back of Mt Lemmon when it was covered in snow and ice. It probably helped me get up there, and was trying to help me get down in the absolutely fastest way possible. Yeah, nah, I'll stick with selectable lockers and something like the Jeep's hill decent control if I ever get in that shit again.
  3. Interesting to see that sellers at every level play the same retarded games.
  4. Yeah, I have no idea how to address that or even start to, sorry. I have a current-gen Pro running iOS 16 beta. Maybe try Chrome, since it can update itself. Safari stays "stuck" with the iOS version.
  5. THEY don't want you to know.
  6. I totally agree with this as a high-value way to restart yourself. Some people find it "impossible." Just sticking to plants is a close second best. But the absolute best? Fasting 3-5 days and then at least seven days of whole plants only.
  7. That's how it works. Probably the top most common complaint/annoyance in trying to lose weight. The more you weigh, the more energy you use just to maintain it and to move it. At some point, you have reached input/output parity and stall. My stall is exactly the same. Here are the ideas from a couple of nutritionists I follow: 1. Do a week of super-clean eating. So a completely plant based, whole food diet for a week or ten days. No oil, no animal products. 2. Step up your light to medium movement at the same time. Not super aerobic or heavy weight, but put in a couple miles of fast walking, or my preference, a few miles of mountain biking or similar. 3. More water, more fiber, move shit. Literally. 4. Off the sodium. Use potassium chloride if needed. I can reliably vary my weight by three pounds in a day based on junky salt food intake. Some nutritionists believe that low calorie eating is for weight loss, not exercise, and to not mix the two.
  8. So much about what we are told to eat, or fed at low cost, is also the worst thing to eat. Coca-Cola is subsidized; broccoli is not.
  9. https://nutritionfacts.org/video/friday-favorites-is-cheese-harmful-or-healthy-compared-to-what/?mc_cid=e3b9b4e09d&mc_eid=6bf37ade4d They are even paying and/or collaborating with China's largest dairy promoters (1:20). "Proof" that candy is good for you at 2:30. US sugar industry gets $1.4B of your dollars every year. McD has six people employed just to maximize cheese kickback dollars. Reality around 7 minutes and some, it's shitty for you, relative to actual whole foods.
  10. Upgraded to a gen 3. Which might be dumb since a new one should be coming very soon, but...got $150 off. Always in a case, which is included. The iPad is in perfect shape. The case has the wear you'd expect from a couple years of ownership. Includes retail box and unused charger and cable (I have plenty of cables and chargers, never use the new ones). MPN: MXDC2LL/A UPC: 0190199423206 eBay says my sales range should be $521-587 plus shipping, so how about $520 shipped? Trending price is $547.00 **see footnote for trending price List your tablet and we'll help you earn the trending price.
  11. Yeah, #4 run from the panel to the second garage, for a sub panel. For years I ran the wood tools from a leftover shore power cord with the legs modified to connect to 240v. Then I got my low voltage (networking) guy to run a pull string for me, and pulled and installed a real connection. I've pretty much forgotten and stopped seeing the holes. I had left them thinking I'd also pull an air line in there, but haven't.
  12. Yes, absolutely. We get insane winds here. We would have to take the pots down if we expect wind, or best case, they'd fuck the plants up. The more I thought about it, the more I thought, nah. I texted my stucco guy with a thought like that. He said to go for it, and he'd charge one hour plus materials for it. Which, I think, might be $80. Dunno, never asked him to itemize his work. But nah, I give up. Reminds me I need to get the drywall dude here too. This has been like this for...embarrassingly long.
  13. I don't think it's thick/sturdy enough to handle the weight from a toggle. I fear it could just break off. It's poorly done stucco in some spots, on top of being super thin with nothing inside. The house itself is way thicker with a backing. I think putting 10-20 pounds of dirt basically pulling on a single toggle is risky. And that hole had a zip toggle in it, which is normally very sturdy. But it was loose, because as you tighten it, the stucco gives way. Shitty. I'm just going to give up.

    Burnouts all the way. Had to double clutch the shifts. I kinda miss my old step-side with three on the column. I probably wouldn't if I drove it, but I miss the memory of it.
  15. So a new version of "Lori's Husband." Joe I did a 70A sub for my second garage, and it was just a marginal pain. The "wire" for the main run is more like a tube, but from there, it was easier. I was lucking that the panel to sub run is nearly straight and like 40 feet. You may or may not be required to install AFCI and GFCI. I did both for my own safety. Just remember that plugging a MIG into an AFCI....well...predictable result. Ask me how I know.
  16. Who are you? Look man, this makes sense, how the fuck else will the flood waters get to destroy your parts next time if they're up high? But seriously, can you later sneak in a loft kind of thing, or maybe a Being John Malkovitch style "floor?" One story, but max height? Insulation...a neighbor recently did a small job with some super-duty "foam" panels with radiant barrier. They are claimed to have much more R value by thickness, they go up as panels, and they say they won't allow/encourage moisture issues, rodents, etc. I didn't validate any of this myself. The guy who told me is very handy and capable, but also sometimes gullible. I believe he said $40 per sheet in small quantities. Anyway, think/research on that. I've got Sam's Club LED lights in most of the shop area. If I wasn't a Jew, I'd remove any older lights and buy more. Love these things. Three brightness levels to tune for space or task. Winter smoking lounge can be 1, and lining up small parts is a 3. Congrats on the space. You'll really enjoy all the open areas and freedom for a few hours until you fill it with shit to trip over.
  17. Gynecologist becomes a boat mechanic. Did it all through the outdrive.
  18. Are you taking the doors off so you can drive your orange Jesus around in the open air when he visits?
  19. Impact is probably your friend here, to break the locker and paint.
