  1. Wired speakers or amplified solo speakers with a bluetooth connection? This seems gimmicky and I'm not sure they can be paired into zones, but here's one cheaper example: https://www.homedepot.com/p/SVOPES-2-Piece-6-5-in-Bluetooth-Ceiling-Speakers-150-W-Flush-Mount-8-Impedance-89-dB-Sensitivity-for-Home-Kitchen-DPXDYSQ65YCLOVPZAV1-V1225/334261676?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&srsltid=AfmBOopaWTixyht-3EWX6nDxwdK2kO8sFyHNP-jHXv311uwQIb1cWLmyRko https://www.homedepot.com/p/VEVOR-4-Pieces-6-5-in-Bluetooth-in-Ceiling-Speakers-150-Watt-Flush-Mount-Ceiling-In-Wall-Speaker-w-8-Impedance-for-Home-DPXDYSQ65YCSYB22LV1/331250362?MERCH=REC-_-pipsem-_-334261676-_-0-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a-_-n/a Wired speakers are all I have experience with and I can't recommend Sonos because of the way they borked their early adopters with forced obsolescense, poor software design, and privacy concerns. Spotify Connect native is a huge benefit if you're a Premium subscriber. It allows for direct speaker connection and control via your Spotify app or player on the same network. My home is all Bose SoundTouch with a mix of SVS in the theater and Ubiquiti for the network, so I feel comfortable recommending these three: https://www.bose.com/p/speakers/bose-music-amplifier/MUAMP-AMPLIFIER.html?srsltid=AfmBOop4IuYq0JucDg_t9sIoiUKYPL4F1ZpTyanDGKhBTiW5ycnXexxN https://www.svsound.com/products/prime-wireless-pro-soundbase?srsltid=AfmBOoqQOsZpQz18O6wd7WTOfTbTfUcX-bD2JhmW4tfEvZ14Zd6vU7jW https://store.ui.com/us/en/products/upl-amp
  2. I'm watching this on Severe Studios with Radarscope on another screen. Definitely see a debris ball from the Northridge neighborhood as this tornado heads for Lubbock Christian University. It's been riding eastward on 114 from Reese Center.
  3. The lobbyists won, unfortunately, the CFPB withdrew their proposals on data broker protections. https://www.consumerfinancialserviceslawmonitor.com/2025/05/cfpb-withdraws-proposed-fcra-data-broker-rule/
  4. Who knew Elon was the trojan horse we actually needed? Called for Trump to be impeached and Vance to replace him - which was probably the actual plan. Plus, he likely stole so much data that he has alllll the dirt.
  5. Thanks for the reminder to use a Google Voice number and temporary E-mail account on my next loan application.
  6. Yeah, you just found yourself a squatter.
  7. Free shuttle? Sheeeiiit, I paid $40 to get me to/from Union Station as I've heard ride share logisitics sucks and of course there's no RTD station in Morrison.
  8. I'm there tomorrow night for Lord Huron. I think another member here is at the show tonight.
  9. Fuck off, I'm willing to give up a 2.8% to get out of Texas and the math ain't mathing. Tell me when I regain my sanity, if doubling my mortgage coupon for a similar appraised house makes sense.
  10. Can't put the toothpaste back after the Fed bought $2.3T in MBS, while PPP targeted $500B at business owners so they can further inflate asset prices (equities, Lambos, AirBnBs). $4.6T was firehosed into the economy and everybody is gaslighting us about how inflation works. Now nearly 40% of homeowners have no mortgage at all, so that home price isn't going to move much to appeal to affordability.
