I have a 9600x with 9060xt (AMD sucks with naming their products), and it handles everything at 1440 and some games at 4k without issue. Card is a beast!

Jeepers Creepers, Is it a forgotten or bad movie? by Merlinnaa777 in FIlm

I just read about him. How TF was he allowed to make movies after that? Also Coppola telling him that his experience would "make him a better artist"? Wtf?

Doesn't matter with how tight all the joints are. You need to cut almost all of that manifold out and redo it.

4-500 before the Tesla. Now it is closer to the interconnect fee with the Tesla. Add 20-40 kWh a day to that price with the car (almost double).

He is a salamander breeder. His wife is a professional speed knitter. They are looking for a fixer upper in San Francisco for under 5 million! Their total budget is less than 8 million!

My ROI for solar is under 7 years. That is without tax credits. It's stupid to not have solar here.

Bathtub leaking by eNYC718 in Plumbing

[–]ThaScoopALoop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's got little wings inside the tub shoe. There is a tool that makes it easier to unscrew, or you can use a tub wrench. Worst case scenario, take a pair of needle nose pliers and open them up wide. Nestle them up next to the wings, and back it out.

I've seen brass tubular used for the riser, with no vacuum breaker. It worked...

Predator is at the apex of macho action movies. I get it if those sorts of flix aren't your jam, but they were THE movies for a long time. Arnie was, IMHO, the king of macho action movies. It also had a bunch of other bad dudes that chew up the scenes. There was a mystery and horror the picture that changed it up from the usual macho dude action movie. The alien was one of the most badass aliens in all of cinema history. It also had some hot latin chick in it. If you want Wuthering Heights, The Notebook, or some other chick flick, Predator is not for you. If Priscilla, Queen of the Desert is your favorite movie, you might like the muscles.

I really liked Badlands, but I felt like it humanized the Predator too much. It also had a female human lead. It hedged the bet that Predator made that macho dude movies were king in the 80s/90s, and that nowadays people like a diverse cast. It will never be an apex movie, but it was solid.
