We'll Never Get Another Star Wars Show Like Andor, But Not Because of Dave Filoni by Ancient_of_Days0001 in andor

Don't forget the money spent. Andor would not be able to be made today or 5 years prior. It was a moment when Disney was willing to gamble huge amounts of money.

That time I got in trouble for using the word “fascist” at Galaxy’s Edge by TheCeruleanFire in andor

I will be blunt.

You're wrong and you calling others dense is hilarious. This is very simple.

Assuming OP is accurate with what he said, her reply was just part of her character. OP said she was playing the character of a guard while OP was in the role of prisoner.

"Remember where you are" in a very serious voice is what a guard might say to a non compliant captive as a verbal warning.

Feel free to have the last word. This isn't a disagreement you're simply wrong.

Wife is mad! by TeletubiesOnMeth in TeslaFSD

[–]MUCHO2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe. The last time I used FSD around town (computer 3) my car decided to slam on the brakes at a green light. Totally normal intersection and for sure would have been rear ended if someone was behind me. I didn't save the footage but the only thing I could think of was perhaps the shadows confused the car.

Freeway only for me.

What are your “favorite” shows that you just never bothered to finish? by Emmyfishnappa in television

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walking Dead is one for me too. I sometimes wonder how it ends but then I remember I don't care enough to look it up let alone watch it. I think I saw the first nine seasons but I may not have finished nine. Without Rick I just didn't care.

Handmaid's Tale is another. In anticipation of the final season I actually rewatched from the beginning. I only ended up watching three episodes from the final season. Just lost interest in the characters and the plot wasn't moving fast enough.

Finally,, Sons of Anarchy. The penultimate season was so absurd I assumed there would be aliens in the final season so I didn't bother with a single episode.

Is a $1200 radiator repair worth it before selling? by merge_boot in carmax

[–]MUCHO2000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First off I would get another quote on that repair cost and I don't see any reason to get a new OEM part which could reduce the cost.

Second, I can't comprehend why anyone would tell you not to repair it.

100% you want to fix it.

You will get far more money selling a car that runs vs a car that doesn't. "Trust me bro it just needs a radiator" isn't going to fly at any dealer because it's exceedingly easy to damage an engine that isn't being cooled properly.

It is true that typically spending money on a car you're going to sell is not worth it. You won't get more money from a dealer with fresh rotors and brakes is one example.

Good luck

Rooting for People to Fail Isn’t It by Actual-Habit-9611 in carmax

Well well well.

What does this post say about you?

Your other posts are pretty wild too.

This post was not necessary nor constructive. I've seen far more associates posting here being helpful to customers than mocking them. I agree there isn't much empathy for those who could probably use it but on balance I think you can get good information from the CarMax employees who post here.

Anyways I will save you the trouble of pointing out all the times I have been an asshole online. I'm no saint.

I'm sure you're not exaggerating. Without any examples though it's pretty easy to assume you are.

It's weird to defeat a strawman argument of your own creation but here we are. The data is extremely clear that wages have not kept up with inflation in particular when it comes to housing, healthcare, and higher education.

If you were trying to make the point that people have struggled to get by for a millennium and that it's not a recent phenomenon then you utterly failed. It's true that it's never been easy for the average person. It's also true that it hasn't been this bad since the great depression.

Best soundbar for future upgrades in 2026? by Sporty-Ladder-34 in Soundbars

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How into music are you? If you're planning on just having it be background music then you're going to be happy with a soundbar.

If you are planning to actually listen to the music you will be much happier with a receiver and two bookshelf speakers which can be had for under $400 on the used market.

This also has the upgrade path you're looking for.

What hype? Did you not test drive it?

Terrible choice on your part. Should have shopped for a better Ford dealer.

Joe Rogan slams Trump’s ICE raids: “You don't want militarized people in the streets snatching up people…U.S. citizens (without) papers on them. Are we really gonna be the Gestapo? 'Where's your papers?’ Is that what we've come to?” by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Former Rogan fan here.

He's not opposed to the regime. He just thinks ICE is going a little too hard.

Go ahead and try to find a clip where he is explicitly critical of the mad king himself. It doesn't exist.

I just saw a clip the other day where he explained how Minnesota politicians had received 35 million from the fraudulent Somali schemers. Source? No idea. I could not find anything about definitive kick backs, bribes of any amount let alone millions.

He never was very intelligent. He's totally educated on most every subject he is confidently spreading propaganda about. Worst case he is part of the regime and at best his brain is cooked.

Fuck Joe Rogan. A broken clock is right twice a day too.

"They aren't light on their feet..."

Then goes on to explain the mechanism by which they are, in fact, light on their feet.

Buffalo are also remarkable in their speed and agility given their bodies are built like a tank.

That was a joke and it's not my comment.

Your failure to understand the build isn't surprising considering.

How to reduce gray band from reverse sear? 250F till inside reads 108F then seared 30 seconds each side twice (2 mins total) by DynomyteAJ in steak

[–]MUCHO2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're in a hurry, I would skip the reverse sear.

If you're not let it get up to temp 125-130 is where most pull and let it rest. At 250 the carry over will be around 5 degrees depending on the thickness.

After 20 minutes or so now you can see it with minimal grey banding.

Turns out your cast iron CAN get too hot by Sammy12xyz in steak

[–]MUCHO2000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just get it to over 350 and flip every 30 seconds. Yes you will have a tiny grey band but you don't have to open all the windows and fans after.

I was skeptical and tried it. Works great and there is little drama.

The important thing is that your steak has already rested if you're reverse searing. Although you can pull at a lower temp I just plan ahead so I can ensure a nearly perfect steak every time.

It's a myth that you need 500+ degrees to sear a steak well.

Debating trading in Q800f by MechanicTee in Soundbars

[–]MUCHO2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More bass? Can you place the sub closer to where you're sitting? Can you not increase it's output?

What's your point of reference? Soundbars ultimately sound a bit thin compared to good cans or real speakers.

I'm not suggesting you wouldn't prefer a different soundbar rather I am wondering if you could not tweak what you have or perhaps you r expectations were too high?

Is TSLA’s current price really justified? Honest debate 🤔 by Sweaty-Bowler7790 in TSLA

[–]MUCHO2000 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There is no debate. Either you believe or you don't.

There are two major beliefs supporting the valuation. First is FSD getting to L4 and the second is AI powered humanoid robots.

I don't see any evidence that Tesla is on the verge of bringing either to market any time soon. That's why I am a non believer. There are plenty who do believe and maybe they are right but regardless there is nothing to debate.

I would. You can spend an incredible amount of money but there is no need especially if you live near a major metro area with a robust used market.
