    I won't call it shittastic, but ever since Apple caught up on the actual mapping several years ago, I much prefer Apple Maps to Google. The maps look better, it's more intuitive/simple to use, and the routing is much better. Google constantly tries and use a Waze like beat the traffic route, but is significantly worse than the Waze algorithm at it. As @Grimassaid above, I use Waze for road trips for police reports (I still use a V1 with it, as while Waze is fantastic for static police, it is terrible for moving, and that is where the V1 shines). I use Apple Maps in town.

    I'm a beta tester. The googs kept the dev team separate, and they were pushing lots of new updates till Covid hit. Since then, the team has been gutted, and not been replaced. From what I can tell on the tester forums, there is only a skeleton team left. They seem to focus more on non-US these days, as that is their largest user base.

    Fill a very niche space IMO. I had one for a bit, but don't consider a knife as a defensive weapon (and I'm not trained in using one for that purpose), so I sold it. They are a lot of fun to fidget with.

    While I guess technically a button lock, that's an Auto my dude. Classic BenchMade MILSPEC/LEO edition. Can't name the exact model right now, but I had one nearly identical about 10-15 years ago. Got rid of it because at the time autos were illegal in Texas.

    Pretty sure it's M3. We are seeing long lead times right now across all lines for pretty much anything custom. Which is historically typical for an impending refresh.

    Making 2 pots for the game this afternoon. Doing some experimenting. 1 pot will be all smoked brisket, 1 pot will be my normal mix of cubes and ground ribeye. I use the @Snow Dog recipe from the old site, and just got all my dumps measured out so i can get cooking around lunch.

    It was in Cyrillic so I have no idea. I assume spammer.

    First, I'm pretty stunned it took them so long to think of this. Second, anyone know of a cheaper knockoff that works? This is actually pretty genius addition to a camping kit. No way I'm paying $25 for it, but surely there is a much cheaper alternative.

    It could be worse. Guy in my league stacked Fields and Moore. 83 points on TNF.

    Never heard of Finch Knife Co before, but that is a beautiful knife. Be curious to see how it holds up long term.

    Oh I’m very aware.

    My brother who went to TXST just sent this to me. He and I are the only ones in our fam that didn't go to Tech. This has to happen for the sheer comedy it will bring me over the holidays.

    Well you see, their cost is $0.

    I had to do the same with my truck with the new hub. Here is what I have. https://www.amazon.com/CarlinKit-Wireless-CarPlay-Connection-2016-2023/dp/B0C49Y1F6Z/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1Y2AOKDY4UPK8&keywords=Carlinkit&psr=EY17&qid=1695761659&s=todays-deals&sprefix=carlinkit%2Ctodays-deals%2C89&sr=1-4&th=1

    What truck? There are plentiful Wireless CarPlay adapters you can plug into your truck, that act as the receiver, in place of the cable, for your entertainment system. I have a 2016 F150, and use a cheap CarLinkIt from Amazon. Its fantastic. My phone never leaves my pocket, and CarPlay for everything instead of Sync. I have had zero issues with the Always on screen. No excess battery drain, no accidental button presses. I thought I would hate it, but I actually quite like it.

    Great. Grand. WONDERFUL. Says the guy going on a cruise in 2 weeks. Just got my updated booster and a flu shot. Here's hoping it helps.
