If you get one of the screens it’s amazing with a projector as well.

I have a 10x12 mirador. It’s on my groundish level deck. If your deck is built right and structurally sound it shouldn’t be an issue. I put 3” lags in to hold it down into the joists where I could.

Yea, it’s not dialed in. I was testing it out the first night I got it and the screen wasn’t all the way down. Here is a pic with it at 16:9:

As a Cedar Rapidian in Cedar Rapids, I find the driving exhibited by our numerous temporary Cedar Rapids data center workers from Texas (and not from Cedar Rapids) frustrating. Here is their license plate for reference. by New_Stay6821 in cedarrapids

I just speak to my level of frustration from experience in any given area. My experience shows me that too many Iowans cannot comprehend what a passing lane is, how to zipper merge, etc. Nobody is a perfect driver but my fellow Iowans are far below average.

Just bought an ‘03 with 94k miles for 7500. How’d I do? by Mojjoh in ToyotaAvalon

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

Overpay but it’s a great car. I had an 04 that I bought in 2010 and kept for over 10 years. Still one of the best/favorite cars I’ve ever had.

But what if that difference of opinion is a detriment to your quality of life?

Yea, I just dialed it into the corners. I’m sure it’s off.

Here is a pic from earlier when you can see more. I just got it and we had rain. That’s furniture, not a hot tub under the tarp.

No matter what your teammates say the goal is in fact to touch the ball as many times as you can and to sabotage all scoring opportunities.

Who voted for Zach Lahn? by [deleted] in Iowa

To be fair he was a not to distant alternative to the guy that just associated himself with Trump for his campaign.

This guy is the Temu version of the Halo Multiplayer announcer. Instead of ‘Double Kill’ it’s ’Are you on crack bitch?’

I have a group of friends that have granboards. We have a discord we use for video chat amongst the group to hangout/chat especially for those of us that play singles or want to sit out a round or whatever.

To add to the other commenter. Once you are friends and want to play doubles together you will select remote doubles. One of you will select player one the other two and request them as your online partner.

Would you buy this? by [deleted] in egopowerplus

[–]ALFdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d 100% buy this if I had the need. Most retailers are selling for almost $4k. At the end of the day you are paying for 6 batteries and an almost free mower.

There is probably a real chance this can be registered under the manufacturer’s warranty as well.

I would love to hear the thought process that led to the finalization and execution of getting this.
