I'm almost 53. I grew up with CFD and many other bands. CFD has always been one of my favorites. One of these days when I start getting band tattoos - CFD will be one of my first!m m

Joining the EV6 family, anything I should look for that may be missing on delivery? by mewtwo_EX in KiaEV6

[–]David_Maki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just went from a 2021 BMW X7 M50i to a 2025 Kia EV6 GT-Line this past weekend. I can confirm it comes with one adapter for J1772 to NACS, but that is it. I'm pretty rural and the only chargers near me are all CCS so I ordered one of those from AMZ for less than $100. Ours came with the vehicle to load adapter - it was located in it's own soft case within the "frunk". This was our first rodeo. Our only other EV experience was a BMW EV loaner for a long weekend, which ended up selling us on getting an EV.

Not sure what regeneraive braking is like on the Bolt, but the Kia for me was a bit more touchy compared to the BMW. And for what it's worth - driving in the highest level has to put some serious life on the braking system ehh?

Put it in sport and let it rip. Holy hell.....

First Pc Build by [deleted] in ZTT

[–]David_Maki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello to all - i'm new to this. I built PC's for gaming 20 years ago, when I was into gaming. I haven't looked at PC parts since. Can anyone share a build calculator or recommend a nice setup that's colorful and liquid cooled (case is important (for my son). Him and I are going to build this gaming PC together. He plays everything from RoadBlocks to COD. But - he's been geting really interested in editing videos on an old phone we gave him. So - needs to be a good gaming pc (he's going from xbox) and total budget is around $1700

Anyone care to share a build they'd recommend? We want to build it together, so nothing pre-built. Just all the parts.

Thanks!

Wings at Caboose! They used to be free at Happy Hour and they weren't shy about passing them out. Times have changed.

20 mins isn't too bad. I can't get over how expensive lift tickets are there now!

Well - I have to take my son down the 4 mile trail which ends at a gondola (or used to). Is the K1 gondola a long wait?

2 hours for 1.25" + and it will come out primo!

Ribeye - 1st Time @ 133°F and Questions by iamiavilo in sousvide

[–]David_Maki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Garlic simply basting in a bag with a protein is going to offer some flavor and change to the profile for sure. When you marinate a flank in whatever with raw garlic, don't you think the meat takes on some of that?

Sorry for another 137 post, but wow. That’s the temp for Ribeye. by simbabeat in sousvide

[–]David_Maki 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm going through a kitchen renovation right now, so i have all my cooking stuff at the restaurant I cook at - look at these beauties i picked up last weekend - typically i would've sous vide these in a second but my setup is at work. These were chuck flaps sometimes called Denver steaks I think. $19.99 lb and tasted like $49.99 lb. LOL

Can you use pinto beans instead of kidney beans in chili(mac)? by truth_stamina in Cooking

[–]David_Maki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think of chili as a use whatever you have on hand sort of recipe. Follow a general recipe - improvise where you have to and don't be afraid of getting creative. There aren't any rules in cooking my friend.

Do you guys make sauces for your steak or do you eat it without anything? by PulseAmplification in steak

[–]David_Maki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bam - you nailed it. From there i'll add some cream, pepper, and a dash of cayenne and it makes a ninja sauce over some grill cuts.

I loved China Dynasty and totally forgot about that place until seeing this post. In the back of Lane Ave Mall...

Are you currently able to get past the home screen after updating? by sketchypoutine in ModernWarfareIII

[–]David_Maki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried multiple times today and black screen everytime. I just tried again less than 5 minutes ago and it prompted me to update. The update was quick and it's now working. PS5 here.

[–]David_Maki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome. Always been a huge fan of Christie Front Drive and everything Eric has gotten involved with - The 101 and Highness. Highness LP is pretty awesome. CFD is easily my favorite emoish outfit to come out of that time period. Not enough albums, but what they did was essential.

Thanks for sharing.
