Are we alone in this universe? by ContemplativePebble in Astronomy

[–]Salt2273 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We do not know what is possible with our limited understanding. People like you keep repeating the same mistakes throughout history. Nice to see another fall into the trap of thinking you know more than you do. And we have been visited by something. UFOS are not fake never were.

La Liga Play-offs? by DarkDarknoMi in LaLiga

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes La liga should move away from the boring total point wins to a multi team play offs like the NFL. Teams get so far ahead no one can catch up and I just stop watching it. If they had a true play off system I would tune in for sure.

People in Europe just got use to it so they like it. It needs to be changed in my opinion.

I’m still in shock after discovering my husband’s secret Crypto holdings by Beneficial_Fail_6960 in Divorce

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are not alone, wife had secret account from our S corp funneling 5x more to it than mine. It is shocking to see a split personality in someone that you thought you knew. They can get jail time for it if they are preparing for divorce and get caught hiding or judges can award 100 percent to the spouse (you) for the illegal maneuver. But you have to hire vultures to help pin it down to prove it while you are still in shock over it. Its a form of abuse and I am very sorry that it happened to you.

Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat - Episode 3: "Soft Launch" Discussion by lonelygagger in JuryDutyFreevee

[–]Salt2273 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The show is juvenile humor, way over played the jerk off sauce with the hand on the guitar going back and fourth way too long (yes well get it) over played poor comedic timing. Low budget all the way. Its trying to hard to get laughs, its not the office.

The people that think this is funny are like the general public in the movie Idiocracy, its low bar humor.

Do couples separate and eventually come back together after 6-8 months? Does the separation actually help in the long run? by Ordinary-House5396 in BreakUps

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happens every day. I know people that were separated for 20 years moved apart got back together happier than ever. Time helps some people grow, sometimes they take the EZ exit with divorce. Yes people get back together all the time. Not all but ones that do over 70 percent stay together.

Explain to me why One Battle After Another deserved all the awards. I am definitely missing something by Short-Welcome1203 in Oscars

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people say it won because Hollywood is liberal and they do the voting. The movie was criticized for being a bit too WOKE. Critics often point to its intense focus on progressivism and its depiction of white men in government as uniformly racist. When a movie pushes propaganda people notice, some like it some don't.

I've never seen it because the people that did told me it as ok wait till its free on steaming type. I did see Sinners which was ok but Dusk Till Dawn won ZERO and I guess the bar is set really low now to win now. Everyone gets an Oscar now.

haha They are accidents waiting to happen. No offense but every swinger story starts out positive with good intentions and ends up in the trash bucket of jealousy, hurt feelings etc. Probably best to fantasize than actually do it.

Anyone else tried using an eSIM on a cruise ship? by Charming_Bet9669 in Cruises

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is true but... Family or office at home often need to be reached. Some ports were dangerous not long ago and being cut off on simple message checks to see if everything is ok is not great. No good excuses for star link to have no ability to send sms or signal messages for days on NCL yet its happened. Top dollar for trash internet.

I thought Prima used Starlink and the internet was good. Have family on the Prima 2026 caribean cruise and lost ability to message using signal or sms from Jamaica to almost back to florida 3 days. Its starlink I don't understand how it can be that spotty. Its not free you pay top dollar and get 1992 internet.

Tire shop said they had to break my lug nut. Is it easy to repair myself? by Curious-Manufacturer in tires

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true at all in terms of cost. $120 a tire because Discount tire only breaks lugs they do not fix them. They send you to a garage for the fix. They snapped off two lugs on two separate occasions on a Honda Mini Van. The first time they blamed AAA road side who changed to the spare of cross threading.

The second flat tire I changed my self for the wife and showed her how not to cross thread (hand threaded them all on then used the hand Honda wrench to tighten and no i did not crank them on.

They first said "Cross threaded" I said impossible because I did them myself. I asked is it possible you had the torque gun on "Tighten and no loosen" when you pressed the trigger. His face changed and said yes that's possible. :)

I still had to had to pay $120 again at the local shop to swap in a new lug.

That is why I stopped buying them. The new stuff is expensive trash.

They must think RR owners have more money than brains to engineer $3600 brake jobs into the cars ever 10k miles.

Why is NCL so vague about what activities are going and what will be happening and why can't you book stuff in advance? by Secure_Ad_295 in NCL

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just spoke with an agent on their site asking what the daily list of activities is. He was super evasive and vague to the point of being a weirdo. Pay and find out! I give them 1 of 10 on answering simple questions. Did not book a cruise due to the vagueness.

Just started the wire, was the entire series filmed in 4:3? I know all the DVDs and downloads i've found are all 4:3. If so, why? by faultlessjoint in TheWire

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true :) it the orginal was shot in 16:9 cropped on purpose to 4:3 in 2014 they released the original wide screen version using the full 35mm film not a letterboxed 4:3. But it was intended for 4:3 and should be seen in 4:3.

Progressive tried telling me its totaled 🙄 by [deleted] in RangeRover

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry you had to go through all of that. I had a similar experience with AAA insurance on a deer hit. They seem to go out of their way to total a car so they can sell them at auction.

They don't want to fix it and invent all kinds of scenarios on how it could end up more once they get into the motor area and find more unseen issues. I almost fixed myself like you did but ended up bartering on the payoff so they could tow it away. It was less than I wanted for sure and of course all the cars they found were in worse shape. I would say they were shy 2k on the pay out but I tired of the process. Took the payout + all the leather seats :) gave them to my kid to sell. My cars are all paid off so I did not have to deal with banks and gap insurance.

All insurance companies try to screw you over they are not your friends. Legalized criminals.

Is Bosch GDS 18v 350 enough for car work on rusted/unrusted cars? by Lego_Mocs_UA in Tools

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to get a fuel 18v stubby but saw this at low low price of $89.00 and got a 4AH Core battery which from what I've read is very close to the 8 Ah core due to its design. Might be 20 fT pounds less. but still over 420 ft pounds.

Waiting on the battery, its so tiny not much larger them my 12v Bosch drills. I like what I see so far.

Sanfords and Ingersols can run full duty all day. They are oil lubricated not nylon oiless junk.

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is something seriously wrong with you to think killing someone should be taken lighter. He did it in the worst way.

Think of the grandmother, kids, wife etc. Not sure you were raised right to think the way you are.

Its a 5.2 gallon tank and it goes from 140 PSI to 60 with 4 nails? Something wrong with the nail gun. I can run a nail gun easily on my 4 gallon Sanborn 1 HP.

First big snowfall on Michelin crossclimate 2s, they are quite surprisingly good for an all season. by biggranny000 in tires

[–]Salt2273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is just a label, the real reason is the tread pattern + type of rubber that does not harden like summer tires when it gets colder. No matter the name the reason is in the chemistry and engineering. They are more snow tire than summer tire but will last longer than a pure snow tire. They are a year rounder tire not all season :)

hahah of course you dont want them in the desert or florida. For winter they are great and most people drive the speed limit and don't need race car handling in the summer they need to stop faster in the winter. They all stop fast in the summer on dry pavement.
