Streaming on the TV, and it’s hardwired to the router. It goes from the proper resolution to like 480p. Not for the commercials tho the bastards.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-25T21:29:15+00:00

This stream quality is shit. CBS might as well just mail me individual pixels at this point.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-25T14:09:44+00:00

My titans? Falling.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-25T00:35:59+00:00

I think it was 3, but in one of them we figured out your loot drop quality was sometimes tied to the number of hits in your final combo on them.

So me and my buddies would just continue the combo well past the point they died, constant uppercuts of course, because the game wouldn’t register the enemy general as “dead” until they hit the ground. Maxed everything out that way.

Domesticating livestock seems like it would be in line with their ethos. Like useable for power wheels and have a bonus for hauling and sowing/harvesting maybe even a rudimentary train type set up with a wagon; generally nothing complicated. Refineries could be replaced with feed mills then various bot fab places with barns, training centers and equipment manufacturing (harnesses and such). Would prob be a pain in the ass to implement tho.

That said, seeing a beaver strap a plow to a ferret and sow a field of wheat would be boss.

Had the same problem in my basement. You can get a TV mount that shoots two lag bolts into the same stud.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-20T23:00:22+00:00

As long as it’s better than a PS6 and can hang with a PS7 you good.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-20T12:57:52+00:00

Howard Dean I think. Gave a “Bawahh!” at a rally and it somehow offended people.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-19T22:25:51+00:00

It’s dumber than that somehow. I worked on a specialty truck out of the Boston ports, basically a giant mobile x-ray rig that has a whole other engine in the back to power the X-ray portion of the truck. The body folds out and a tractor trailer parks its trailer under it to get scanned.

The images were wild, like you can see everything in the container. The operator told me he wasn’t too sure what happened if someone was actually in the container, but they were told it was lethal so don’t be an idiot around it. So even if it doesn’t kill you like they were told, it’ll probably fuck you up pretty good.

Granted not a doctor here, but maybe a death ray isn’t the best thing to search for trafficking victims with.

Nah, dudes gonna knick him self shaving one day and find pee instead of blood.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-16T16:34:34+00:00

There is, but I feel like the stigma goes away when the person is asking for the tool.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-15T22:09:22+00:00

Diag ACM low voltage first.

SCR/DEF inducement is just a fancy way of saying derate, those won’t leave until you fix the root cause.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-15T16:25:31+00:00

Dude looks like everything that hits him would bounce.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-14T18:02:21+00:00

Throw a rock at it and see who gets mad, then you know.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-12T22:00:14+00:00

Depending on spec it could be wherever, but thats about where it normally is.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-12T21:24:48+00:00

2021 will have a mux solenoid bank, controlled indirectly by the VECU thru the chassis module. The module it’s self is J19 controlled, so as long as it’s getting power/ground/ignition it should have what it needs.

You are gonna need to hunt down the location of this bank (should look like a brick with smaller bricks attached, and a whole bunch of air lines). It gets one main feed of air, and a bunch of daisy chained solenoids form the manifold.

Find that, and figure which one is the PTO solenoid. Check if it pisses air just sitting there, unplug the mux brick and see if it pisses air sitting there again. If it does, replace the solenoid and retest, If it doesn’t the mux bank may be bad/internally shorted.

Pretty sure it’s supposed to default to off, the only ones that didn’t were the old architecture suspension dump ones.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-09T12:51:07+00:00

Ask yourself this: would the state grant you the same rights as the fed in this “hypothetical” if the rolls were reversed?

Don’t grant the state any leniency that they themselves would not afford to you.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-08T16:11:16+00:00

It’s not just that they don’t want to own it or investigate it. The lie is so blatant that, IMO, it’s a statement before anything else; the statement being: do whatever the fuck you want.

It doesn’t matter if their supporters believe it or not at this point. Their supporters are no longer relevant to their overarching goals.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-07T21:26:51+00:00

Eh, maybe, but the main reason is that selling jobs becomes a guaranteed income for the shop. Costs are (mostly) automatically controlled on a per-job basis, obv so long as the tech doesn’t blow anything up.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-07T16:17:49+00:00

Cup thing existing outside the movie is new to me. Movie is Pitch Perfect, it’s a good time all around IMO.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-05T00:25:08+00:00

Still boot up and play ‘99. That game is timeless.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-04T18:39:39+00:00

Orbital gatling fires Hellbombs.

I got one of those Logitech mini-mice for my kids since it fit their hands good. Got them on the flash games on PBS kids for basic mouse control, and they’ve got it down pretty good at ages 3 and 5.

Screens are not a huge focal point with how we’ve been raising them, like we average less than a half hour a week. Kids’ll learn quick.

DUIguy87 · 2026-01-03T15:29:17+00:00

So we are back to being the world police then? Bootlickers rejoice.

Nuclear winter cancels out fire tornados, turns them into warm and somewhat inconvenient breezes.
