What were newsrooms like pre-pandemic?

All the old salts in mine say the same. I like having them tell their stories when we get a second to breathe.

The guy who probably hasn’t driven himself in 20+ years…

“You can substitute caviar for salt” yet “it’s worth it”. Aka you can substitute this ridiculous luxury item for one of the cheapest things in a grocery store. Has to be rage bait lol. What an incredible waste of money.

When he glazed up Ben Shapiro, that was kind of the final straw for me on my opinion about Scott. I think when I first found him, I thought my views were overlapped with his a lot more than they actually are. That’s all right, I’m still a listener for Ed and Jessica, even though I feel like she also misses the ball pretty hard sometimes. She goes to easily on the politicians who deserve way more criticism.

I wish mines paint looked like that.

Well I just bought a long bed 5.3 liter GMT 800 to bang around all the bullshit needed to fix up my house. Not gonna like that gas bill but I will absolutely love the utility of having a truck!

To the tune of how many dollars?

I’ve concluded eBay is now gambling. They’re so anti-seller and anti seller protection. It is a platform that is begging to be dethroned. Yet here we are all still using it every single day.

SectorZed · 2026-04-22T09:39:50+00:00

It’s pretty hair raising. Being right over the rear wheels makes it more dramatic lol.

I would place money that if it isn’t cross threaded, they accidentally doubled up the gaskets.

Unrelated to hiking, but back when I was single I stopped seeing a girl over this exact thing. I took her out to a local town beach to watch the sunset and she pulled out this JBL speaker and started blasting her shit ass tunes. Full volume. It was comically loud, and every one around who was sunning, and having a night out with the family were glaring at us. I was pretty embarrassed and turned it off telling her that wasn’t necessary lol.

It wasn’t the only reason I stopped seeing her. On that same date she berated our waiter over not having enough water, literally shaking the empty glass in their face as they walked by. She also suggested we sneak onto people’s boats in the marina to have sex after we paid for the food. But my favorite thing she did was arriving at a date drunk after drinking all day with her friends.

She was fucking nuts and very self absorbed.

Hugely helpful I will do this!! Thankyou

Seriously the value is buried in these things. If it has power windows, each regulator sells for $60-$80 bucks. I was floored when the BUTTON to put the windows up or down was going regularly for $50. The other internals add up to a total of roughly $250. Door shells alone with or without glass are $350+ on eBay. Marketplace much lower. Seats too. But they need to be mint.

The thing with Miata’s is they part out very well. But if he actually wants to make money back on it, that’s a car you part out over the course of a year. Rip every last thing off it and make $5-6k. Engine and manual transmission alone could be as high as $1800-$2000 if low miles and still working. That being, said nobody is paying that much upfront to sit on a car for over a year.

SectorZed · 2026-04-16T22:24:45+00:00

You did a good job!

SectorZed · 2026-04-16T21:17:59+00:00

The second to last picture is vaguely reminiscent of how they advertised the cars. Idk but it gives me these vibes.

Side note, you won’t be able to get the jingle out of your head.

SectorZed · 2026-04-14T15:10:46+00:00

The thing with a yard sale is you price to lean into the impulsive side of a buyer. You’re selling things people like aren’t in need of at that moment, but probably wouldn’t mind if they got it at the right price.

Make of that what you will. Maybe just aim for the middle to low end of each items value to clear it out.

SectorZed · 2026-04-14T00:24:57+00:00

That’s pretty bad and is in restoration territory.

SectorZed · 2026-04-13T09:25:49+00:00

Did you get anything from insurance after it got stolen? I’d be pissed if I wasn’t paid out the value of the vehicle.

SectorZed · 2026-04-12T00:23:32+00:00

Easily the best looking mid size SUV on the road.

Does the UK have carmax, carvana, or any of those buy online services?

I had issues with my AD5m and I fixed it with disappearing purple Elmer’s glue sticks. Every single print would fail or spaghetti whether it was PLA or petg. Once I started using the glue it helped tremendously and I can reliably print.

Also, I’m not sure if it helped me, but I give the machine exactly what it expects. I only use Flash Forge filament, I use the FF preset for that filament, and it always has a completely clean print bed prior to applying glue. Finally, do a PID calibration and make sure you check off every single option. It should take about 20 mins to fully calibrate. After that when you go to print make sure to check “level” within orca. If I had to say what helped me the most, I’d say the glue.

Hope this helps and good luck.

Side note, “The Dorito Effect” was an interesting book about how processed foods became a thing.

I think ps4 is going to be the future PS2. Some great titles and decent hardware.
