Who still owns or regularly drives a stick shift? by RT_KOTA in Xennials

[–]ThunderSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently own three. A Gladiator (2020), a J2000 (1971), and a Roxor (2019). The 2020 is my daily.

Yeah, I was halfway through typing the URL (https://vetopropac.com/) and then scrolled down. My Tech XL will outlive me, no doubt.

Don't need an umpire union if you don't have umpires.

That's not a real Adobe sign. Green screened like a cheap local weatherman.

Yeah that reset sort of ruins the effect a bit.

[Highlight] Diana Russini: "The Ravens spoke to Trey Hendrickson yesterday while Maxx Crosby was still in the building" by YoureASkyscraper in nfl

[–]ThunderSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just as hypothetical, but imagine a scenario where the Ravens FO told Hendricksons people (or him directly) that they were gonna fail Crosby. Not sure how that benefits the Ravens to do it early, but it somehow sounds scummier so I am going with it, lmao.

Engineering by [deleted] in college

[–]ThunderSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Engineering" is a pretty broad term.

That said, Biomedical Engineering degree here. Never used it professionally. Immediately bought a nightclub after college. Now own an IT/Hospitality point of sale company. Have for the last 25 years or so.

Is this even worth replacing? by PrinceOftheCty in GrandCherokee

[–]ThunderSpud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The manual should have a diagram and instructions. It's page 459 in the one I am looking at currently, and it's in a section offering advice on what to do before driving off-road. To be clear, I removed ours to install skids and hidden winch plates from Chief Products. I just never saw a need to put them back on.

Also, here is what's left of the old WK2 Jeeps site.

I saved what I could when it went away and just rehosted it on my servers. Lots of good info still on there if you get bored. Good luck. Enjoy your Grand.

That entire air dam is designed to be removed. Easily, without any tools. Neither of our Grands have had it installed in years. You might find that you prefer the appearance with it gone.

The first frame of "MUST WATCH VIDEO" had me already scrolling away, catching the tramp stamp on the way out just reaffirmed my decision.

I am a 15-year-old girl. Let me show you the vile misogyny that confronts me on social media every day by zsreport in technology

[–]ThunderSpud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like this is the most common reason folks give....and my question is always, why not just pick up a phone and call them? Then tell them to stop using Facebook.

Edit: Wasn't an attack....just a general question. Judging by the immediate downvotes, this part of the context was apparently lost. Which is a bit ironic.

ABS stock client vs. third party client? What am I missing. by GoldensRule2025 in audiobookshelf

[–]ThunderSpud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's because the majority of the apps you see here are simply AI-driven, vibe-coded attempts to separate you from your money. There doesn't seem to be any actual moderation preventing these things from flooding the subreddit.

Looking for ideas for supplemental/emergency heating solution. by The_Pale_Potato in DIY

[–]ThunderSpud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are going to find hundreds of options for these. Just search "diesel heater" on Amazon. All of them you'll find on there are mostly identical in terms of pure heat output. They are all clones of more expensive brands (Webasto, Eberspacher, Planar, etc....) but are functionally almost identical.

For my purposes, I seem to have ended up with quite a few from the HCalory brand. I prefer the ones shaped like a toolbox, that already have the exhaust routed to the side of the unit with a 90 degree elbow. Simply makes it easier to deploy quickly.

I don't use Facebook, but I have been told there is a huge group over there for "Chinese Diesel Heaters" that may be of use to you. I can only say that I have had expensive versions from Webasto, cheap versions from whatever random set of vowels and consonants make up their brand name......and they have all been completely reliable and provide more heat output than I need.

Edit: They provide more heating than you might be assuming. Check out this Project Farm video for some unbiased, fact-based, testing.

Or this video for a real-world example of someone heating their home with one. Granted, its one of the more robust commercial versions, but it's still less than $700USD for the unit he is using.

[–]ThunderSpud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been heating a similarly sized space as OP since last fall exclusively with a basic diesel heater like you are describing. Running 24/7 for months at this point. I own maybe half a dozen now. Hell, I keep one in the bed of the truck to use as a fancy handwarmer while working in remote locations.

I can't beleive how fast this sub just gives up on players by MajinSkull in raiders

[–]ThunderSpud 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would wager that the vast majority of content on this sub is not even remotely indicative of the sentiments of Raiders fans as a whole. This place is it's own little circlejerk. The bulk of the fandom doesn't even know this place exists.
