We have gone from "Think Different" to "Buy an Apple Watch or you may DIE a horrible death"? Not sure who signed off on this one...

Re: Crocs Men's or Women's Classic Fuzz-Lined Clogs (Various Colors) $30 - 7 months ago

I still buy these for some reason but they get pretty gross, pretty fast and they are NOT easy to wash...

Re: eSIMply irresistible - 7 months ago

This is REALLY dumb. There are many places in the world that do NOT yet have eSIM support. Apple will effectively put itself out of these markets. They are shooting themselves in the foot.

Re: Fur lined clogs $5 off (would you wear'em?) - 8 months ago

I have worn the fur lines Crocs. They are good until they get stinky and they are almost impossible to clean. The liner needs to be removable and washable!

Re: For those who still eat pasta... - 8 months ago

Definitely salt. I am unconvinced whether oil really "helps" but that's how I learned to make it.

Re: Anyone have Transitions self darkening lenses? - 8 months ago

I have them now, have had them for years and I love them. The driving thing is true, though they claim to have a new kind that works even in the car. I haven't tried them.

Anyone can get them IN. The real question is can you get them OUT?

Re: Hot Tub GFCI trips - 9 months ago

There is no way they put the Tesla on the same circuit as the hot tub. It would probably burn down the house. So I vote for coincidence. Unless they borked something else while installing the new line.

Re: Our neighbor just died and the ambulance is still there. Should mom and I go down there? - 9 months ago

No, unless they are alone and need moral support or some other sort of logistical support. Go over later when the "dust settles".

Re: Do bidets really work? - 9 months ago

MUCH MUCH cleaner than toilet paper. And much easier on the nether regions. I will never go back to manually wiping... And the toilet will never get clogged.

Re: Easy good diabetic meals for newly diagnosed truck driving brother? - 9 months ago

It's not only sugar. Seriously cut down on any Bread, Pasta, Rice, Potatoes etc. They can be even worse than actual sugar (rice is for me). High protein, low carb and make sure the carbs don't have a high glycemic index. I was diagnosed at like 8.9 and got it down to around 6 in a few months just by not eating garbage. Now I'm a bit more liberal and hover around 6.

It is pretty scary that the "New Normal" is people expecting to be knocked on their ass by vaccines...

Re: Speaking about toilet seats: do you keep the seat up, down, lid closed or open? - 9 months ago

I don't "Keep it". The seat remains in the position it was last used until the next time someone uses it.

Re: Professional armorer gives her take on Baldwin tragedy - 9 months ago

Why was live ammo anywhere near a movie set? Did someone bring a loaded gun from home and just forget to swap the ammo? Like this is really unfathomable. IDK if Baldwin himself is to blame here, but someone surely is and needs to pay the price for their negligence.

Re: All the way to Monterey? Who's updating their Macs? - 9 months ago

I'm still running Mavericks on my Hackintosh. I am about to upgrade to Mojave since I got a new WIFI/BT card that works natively and want the iPhone integration, but I doubt past that.

Re: Okay what's wrong with my car: dead battery, runs four seconds after a jump - 10 months ago

Both the battery and alternator can be tested fairly easily. I'd do that before I started randomly guessing and replacing stuff.

Re: What the Worst Star Trek Episode ever in your opinion? - 10 months ago

Many of the TNG holodeck "filler" ones. Yeah it may be fun to put Worf in a western, but come on, it was WAY overdone and overused.
