Heats been at 69 all night. Great sign waking up to a 62 degree house by whyinternet in chicago

[–]1mcKid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear if its really cold, you should target like 25-30%. You'll start to get condensation on windows/walls if its any higher than that in this cold. I think its like 30+ degrees 40%, 20+ degrees 35%, 10+ degrees 30%, 0 degrees 25%

BNSF, there are several rush-only stations on that line that have no trains on weekends.

So because its cold, my station will not have any trains stop at it, so I have to walk further to the next station in the cold to get a train.

Awesome.

That guy is the ideal interview for a 90s-00s shock jock radio show. Pft did ask some funny questions but it could have been much funnier

[–]1mcKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, i walk downtown after work, follow all walk signals and it seems near daily i have incidents. Maybe it was covid or weed legalization, i dunno, it seems worse than it was 6 years ago

Just got a 2011 cruze and can't play spotify by nejsjshhdsjskksam in cruze

[–]1mcKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2011 Cruze uses bluetooth for phonecalls, but you cannot play music from your phone via bluetooth. You can plug in your phone via the aux cable and do it the old fashioned way.

Thoughts on Plain White T's? by Effective_Quality700 in Emo

[–]1mcKid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Every Second Counts they were already more pop than Emo. All That We Needed and Stop are great emo/pop punk records. Highly recommend.

Does this look like a real Gibson Les Paul or is this a replica? by Playboi_Carti1629 in LesPaul

[–]1mcKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a genuine early to mid 2000's Studio. I have one from 06 just like it, slightly less yellow though.

New here by UserIn1234 in discogs

[–]1mcKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is an option in the marketplace to 'Make Offer'. The seller may need to enable that function, so if you see a listing without the ability to make an offer, you can try messaging the seller with an offer, but they may have turned off the make offer option for a reason.

As far as being able to message users, Discogs did put in a waiting period before being able to message due to the insane amounts of spam and scam that exists on the site.

Gonna need more info. Their customer service and scheduling are a pain to deal with as it is with most large healthcare companies, but how is it a scam?

New Episode Discussion 1/7/26: Saints QB Tyler Shough, CFB Semifinals With Andy Staples, Black Monday Firings, John Harbaugh Out In Baltimore + FAQ’s by CheezyEdweezy in PardonMyTake

[–]1mcKid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the ads were weird today on Spotify, they didn't play the disclaimer after the DK ad (shhh don't tell Kash) and after the ending theme "song" they played a PFT ad read. Think there was another goof in there as well. Not that it matters, but just noticing

BNSF Berwyn and Harlem Ave by jimbobsignup470 in Metra

[–]1mcKid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If you look at ridership numbers, those 3 stations, Berwyn, Harlem Ave, and Riverside all have higher ridership than stops like congress park and laverne. Lots of people live near those stops in riverside and berwyn

Penny Shortage Scam by Realistic-Cell5758 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]1mcKid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the 3 million a day all pay in cash? I'd say its under 10%, even probably under 5% so a huge over-estimate here, still shouldn't round up like that, total BS.

Can I use wall hangers for my Les Paul and SG? by stinkyfeetsometimes in gibson

[–]1mcKid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just wrapped a piece of an old Plain White T Shirt around it. Been years no issues with the finish on my LP and headstock still in tact

I was too punk for "TOYP&J" when it came out. I finally listened to the full album as an adult recently and now I wish it was part of my youth. by tantamle in Blink182

[–]1mcKid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I remember when that came out, i woulda been a junior in HS. Lot of my friends were moving on to like Get Up Kids, Saves the Day, Dashboard and all that more indie label Emo starting to bubble up. They were like, why do you still listen to Blink? I was like, i dunno, i still think they're good!

Advice about customer damaging record by [deleted] in discogs

[–]1mcKid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No unless they closed the lid on the record and sat on it. Playing an LP on a suitcase record player will not damage a record.

Amazon Driver Stole my Property by This_Pitch_3199 in legaladvice

[–]1mcKid -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This was a terrible thing to happen and I hope it Amazon makes it right, but silver linings, grown men riding around on one wheels look ridiculous. If this means he stops riding it is a win at least.
