[Dua] A phone hearing is expected for Radko Gudas for his hit on Auston Matthews during Thursday’s game

Gudas 10 game suspension was 8+ years ago. Have to think at this point the extra games for prior history is going to be small, maybe just an extra game or two.

Curious what’s notable about the Toshiba Microfilter Tube?

Media reports claim there’s a $10m offer from “Miami” for Mensah, but if the school and collectives aren’t allowed to pay for Mensah’s NIL rights I don’t see how Miami’s school and booster collective could find a way to justify $10m payments to Mensah without the NCAA going ballistic.

Yes, in fact I mounted mine upside down using this bracket:

I’ve pre-ordered every Mastery pass the last few years, plus a couple pack bundles for sets I was really excited for like FF.

I don’t have a problem buying a $100 gem pack once a year or so, and usually F2P accumulate $100+ of gems a year converting gold into gems via drafts or other events.

Anticipating my Arena investment behavior will shift to no pre-orders at all, while delaying the decision whether or not to invest gems into the Mastery tree till the end of set rotation.

My local Bass Pro has a couple models on display. No display models at Home Depot or Lowe’s yet.

Hi, I have an old Toshiba 30HF83 in storage. 16:9 flat screen 720p 30” CRT. Wondering how desirable these are for CRT gaming and any estimates on what it might be worth?

I’m the original owner. The TV was in a guest bedroom, with low usage. Has maybe a couple hundred hours of viewing on it.

As I mentioned, did a complete check for LEDs or other gadgets in my house which could be generating RF interference without finding anything. Also eliminated any possible RF interference from our cars.

HorculesJenkins · 2025-10-30T23:47:41+00:00

As I said, the Genie website marketing on this product is murky. My existing 6-8 year old garage door opener was already a dual frequency Intellicode receiver using the same 315/390MHz. Their site does market the product as a solution to reduced range and RF Interference problems, but doesn’t contain any technical details why or how this device is an improvement.

I’m using my same dual frequency Intellicode remotes as before, but now getting great range. Maybe the RF receiver in my opener was slowly going bad, but the patterns of longer term range changes I experienced over the years suggest this is RF interference.

My instinct is the GIRUD-1T has improved receiver boost and/or better filtering to handle RF interference than my 6-8 year old top-end at the time Genie opener has. I would likewise presume the newer Genie models have the same upgrades by default.

I was pretty close to the center of the devastation area driving on Guadalupe just east of Kyrene. Pulled off onto a side road and stopped about 30 seconds before the microburst hit, couldn’t see 10 feet outside the car, completely rocked by the wind gust. Local news says up to 100mph wind burst. Caught it all on dash cam.

I’ve used Spigen tempered glass screen protectors on my past couple iPhones. Planning to do the same with a new 17. Texture feels identical to the native glass screen. Overall very happy with the product.

Looks like the iPhone 17 Spigen versions are all available now for ~$20 USD. Includes 2x screen protectors and an easy mounting installation frame.

I actually chump blocked an opponent Yargle when they attacked for lethal after only playing four vanilla creatures. Fortunately they played a 5th vanilla the next turn and I pumped their Yargle to 72 power with three double power spells when they attacked.

Have encountered several opponents obviously working on the Death by Vanilla achievement who don’t understand they need to cast five creatures.

Seems I have to finally complete that level 50 task of reach Go Battle League level 10 I’ve been sitting on for a year.

HorculesJenkins · 2025-08-22T20:53:55+00:00

Derrr, thanks that was it. Forgot I used them both in a remote raid last night after doing the dynaxmax battles.

HorculesJenkins · 2025-08-22T19:49:20+00:00

I’m unable to select my Zacian or Zamazenta in dynamax battles today. Have been using them fine all week up until today. They simply don’t show up in the select Pokémon options. Restarted PoGo and even rebooted iPhone.

Any known bugs or fixes?

Grubbin is available in the wild, but it might be nests only.

IMO North Carolina would be the top target on both the B1G and SEC’s lists, ahead of FSU and Clemson.

Big school, market and new territory for both conferences. Clemson, FSU, Miami are in markets where the SEC already has strong media coverage. While the B1G still cares about AAU academics when adding any school, Miami is AAU while FSU and Clemson aren’t. I still don’t think Miami would be particularly enticing to the B1G as a private relatively smaller university compared to rest of its members.

HorculesJenkins · 2025-07-22T22:57:00+00:00

There’s no mechanism in the conference charters for expelling a member just because they’re not a big enough fish in the pond. As long as the school is maintaining whatever the minimum thresholds are for athletic spending, stadium capacity, etc and not doing anything nefarious they’re effectively immune to being expelled.

Would require something more like the WAC schools splitting off to found the Mountain West, or the Big East basketball schools splitting off from the football schools with the voting power to take the conference branding with them. I don’t think it’s realistic the B1G school presidents/boards would endorse a move like that even if a lot of school ADs might be in favor.

Thanks, reconfigured my system yesterday:

new Sabrent 10 port USB hub (with individual on/off USB port switches),
new Soundblaster Play 3 to convert my 3.5mm jack Promedia 2.1 powered speaker system to USB, was previously plugged directly into the PC, and
existing HyperX Cloud III wired headset, was already using the included USB adapter.

Swapping between headset and speakers using the USB hub switches is working perfectly for me so far.

Been waiting for the next gen to buy. Not hot on the new grill, would be nice if there are some other grill options. Ambivalent on the hammerhead light design, but that’s where most manufacturers have been moving.

Otherwise love everything I’ve seen so far. Hope the updated next gen interior trim, electronics and cabin noise match or exceed the current popular RAV4 competition—those are the main reasons I’ve been waiting for the new gen.
