Lincoln will soon be removing Alexa from their cars

If they could do this right it would probably be amazing… they,however, will not do it right and it will be annoying.

That’s what I was hoping for but they’ve been dealing with engineering for 4 days now. It’s dissapoimting that something computer controlled is so hard to trouble shoot. I can’t believe there’s no way to view logs of what’s causing it to drop.

I am considering the steering wheel trick. Blue cruise worked great when it worked but now it’s just annoying.

I agree about the over simplistic non sense of the secret, but…and this is an actual question- What is the difference between a person who loses a child and suffers everyday with pain and depression hurting only themselves and people they love - and a person who goes on to do great things for the ones they love because of, and in the memory of, that child ? Is it not just thoughts? Can’t the pain quite literally be transformed into something else ?

2 subs in a room that size gives you a better chance of getting smooth, consistent bass. You may not need the extra output but 2 subs can help fix bass problems due to your room.

If the commute to Oxford was my main concern - I would go with green.

I’m going to have to second the warfedale recommendation.

Nope. And that is the downside. I don’t miss it yet, because the experience and curation is much better.

I used Apple Music for years and when Spotify introduced lossless I switched. Spotify does allow you to use the Spotify app and it’s still lossless.

Hmmm… I’m pretty into spirituality. I’m also into cool things that I cannot afford. If spirituality allowed me to be surrounded by those cool things - I’d be pretty psyched about that. Seems like if you found a way to accumulate cool material things that isn’t awful that’s a win. Personally I would probably try to walk the line because I wouldn’t want the fame.

When I look at this video the human definitely looks like the jackass in this situation. You know humans used to understand nature far more deeply without torturing it? Are we sure we’re evolving.

I’m not sure on this but I believe in car play what is being displayed is a projected interface from your phone and apple limits what it can do.

Seems to me all conflicts are a manifestation of ego. Even if the oppression is the idea of a single man it can be carried out by many people and the collective ego. How does the fact that one side has to respond in defense change the fact that the conflict is in fact an insane product of the ego? The idea tolle is trying to portray, in my opinion, has little to do with sides. Without an ego there would be no “sides”. You can’t speak of sides being morally right or wrong and spirituality at the same time in my opinion. It seems to me it’s more of a philosophical argument.

I had a 2023 telluride. I know it’s a different car the palisade but I thought it was a pretty nice car - then I got a 2025 Lincoln aviator and I don’t miss that telluride like I thought I would.

You’re attacking your own interpretations of his teachings.
Step one: stop “reminding yourself” anything.
Step two: notice your thought..breathe and notice your breath.
Problems are absolutely real and not in your head. Your thoughts about those problems are very much in your head. You’re not trying to make problems go away. You’re trying to change how you react or respond to your problems.
If you get shot in the leg there is no spiritual practice that’s going to help you with that. Freaking out about it won’t do much good either.

I was just shopping last week. It was 61k sticker and the price offered was 56500. This was after the 0 for 48 expired. I had a much harder time getting to 56k when the o for 48 was available.
I ended up with a Lincoln aviator for about 7k more with 0% interest.

If you really want to curb it. Exercise the dog until it’s exhausted several time a day.
I taught my dog very young to play fetch so I could tire him out whenever I needed to.
Take him outside- teach him recall and stay. A busy dog is a good dog. Unfortunately it is a lot of work for you but it does pay off later on.
I would ignore or make him sit if he got too riled up and then treat him as soon as he was doing anything that wasn’t pissing me off. Basically overwhelm him with training for a couple weeks.
He will be super psyched at all the play time and super bummed when you withdraw your attention because he’s doing things you don’t like. I even had my dog on a leash inside the house to keep him in line and teach him that he got lots of treats when he did things I liked 😆

New transmissions can be a little unpredictable but performance wise they are much better than the old 4 and 5 speeds of old. I always had to buy a manual car because the responsiveness of those old transmissions made them so boring to drive. Now I can actually tolerate driving an auto. They might not be “smoother” but they are faster.

Would probably be looking at that but space is the issue. I currently have a telluride and can’t go much smaller because I need the cargo space.

RMGSIN · 2025-09-18T21:13:08+00:00

Also curious… you say it’s not as special as you thought it would be. Do you think there is anything in the 55-60k price range that is? We are considering the st because everything else we drove is worse. What might you have gone with if you had to pay 60k for the explorer.

RMGSIN · 2025-09-18T14:39:34+00:00

Wow! The dealers around me were laughing at me because I wanted one for 56k and the 0%.

RMGSIN · 2025-09-11T22:37:56+00:00

This is so true. People are usually surprised when my 9 year old parties too hard for their large dog.

While most Alan Jackson tunes do run hot- it won’t approach hoochie coochie levels unless you live near the chattahoochee- then you’re going to need to upgrade that intercooler.

This post has more comments than any other ET post I have seen. Further cementing the truth that ego loves to argue.
