    That probably only gets you onto the 2yr waiting list (instead of the 5yr waiting list).

    I've mailed my passport for visas a bunch of times. Wouldn't worry about it.

    I suggest replying with a sternly worded "Don't you know who I am?" 1% of the time, it works every time.

    And don't underestimate this. On a "traditional" theater movie, distrib/marketing makes up over half of the costs. That always seems insane to me. Majority of the costs of a conventional movie are not spent in MAKING the damn movie.

    Why the fuck does MB require an "auxiliary" lead-acid battery in many cars? And why is it in a location much less servicable than the primary battery, despite having the same shitty lifespan? What engineering superiority causes this?

    24bit FLAC

    Sam Lin replied to Horn_Spanker's topic in Nerdz

    What you are finding is definitely true. Your entire listening chain, up to and including your ears, needs to be able to resolve the finer resolution for it to have any benefit to you. If you just listen to everything on iPhone earbuds, stick to mp3 and save the disk space. Conversely, if your speakers are B&W Nautilus, never try to listen to anything less than FLAC. There is an audio nerd thread over in the Music forum if you want more visibility:

    You don't have to walk a stripper and pick up her poop. Unless that's what you're in to. Then you do you.

    Take it to a local trophy/plaque shop or one of the places that does gift stuff engraved, and pay them to put it in their engraver or laser marker. Depending how fancy you want to get with the graphic, you might want to have it designed by a pro and saved in vector art format like .ai to feed into a laser. An engraver will be more limited in fonts and designs. I'd also suggest you look at FB groups for Glowforge and Epilog (and other popular laser markers), and just search or post and ask each group if there is someone local to you with a laser, and ask if they'd be willing to mark something for you for money/beer. Most enthusiasts will gladly help you out for a little cash. Ideas for what you can do: https://www.epiloglaser.com/resources/sample-club.htm

    My ideal is more like 38% appreciation, but I'm already a homeowner.

    Pro Tip: If you drop your phone in the lake, you don't get any work calls.

    What didn't work out for you guys on BGE/kamado? It's certainly more involved than an Ooni and also costs quite a bit more in fuel, but it's not supposed to be "difficult." But I recommend Ooni all the time to kamado guys if they plan to do more than the occasional pizza - the speed of heatup and the savings in fuel pay for itself pretty quick if you're doing a lot of pizza.

    Do you still ship/carry steaks, or has the hunting situation sorted that out?

    Man. Glad to hear from you.

    Coworker had a story about his parents, apparently mom always burned the eggs, blamed the pan. Dad bought her a new pan one Christmas. First day after, she used it, he took a bite, and said "well, it's not the pan."
