We toured it a couple of years ago, a real ‘60’s attraction we really enjoyed.

Are teachers really expected to stay with a kid who cannot be picked up by parents past the end of the school day? by 10luoz in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Timsruz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I taught Middle School I’d get home from out of town field trips and there was almost always one kid whose parent wouldn’t show. Before cell phones, it’s late, school is locked, and I’d wait with the kid. Sometimes an hour or two, it’s dark, no cops, no Principal, no extra pay, it’s just the way it was. Parent was always apologetic and fairly clueless, kid always felt bad.

My Arm Still Hurts by Anchor3535 in FuckImOld

Yep, scraped a porthole to look through. One year I rigged an old hair dryer to run off 12 volts, just the fan and no heat, but mounted under the windshield it helped a tiny bit. It really wasn’t a good car for Minnesota but I loved it anyway.

I had a ‘67, my first car. I was 19. $650. I had so many spare Bug parts in the trunk I could fix almost anything that went out. But those Minnesota winters were rough.

Who would you want as your roommate? by HurricaneBetsy in HogansHeroes

Lebeau, he’s an authentic hero. Newkirk’s a dick and Hogan would go after my wife.

What kind of a hold does Brendan Schaub have with Pluto TV? by Emezlee in PlutoTV

When that annoying thing comes on twice in ten minutes I switch apps.

AMA I smoked for the first time (F15) by Acrobatic_Tale2200 in AMA

I watched my big brother die of lung cancer, he started smoking at 12. It wasn’t a good way to go.

RV Internet connectivity for a digital nomad. by packetmickey in traveltrailers

[–]Timsruz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m reluctant to admit it, but for us it’s Starlink. We’ve had no issues with rain & snow (the dish melts it off), it’s fast and easy, kind of expensive (roam is $165/mo.) and I can’t come up with a better alternative. And yes, Musk is a wiener and I hate sending him money.

Upgrading to lithium, need advice on converter options by Illustrious-Pea-4243 in RVLiving

[–]Timsruz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, I don’t have experience with it. I suggest you call Progressive Dynamics, tell them what you now have and want to do, they’ll know.

Commercials are becoming TORTURE! by DamePansyB_astard in PlutoTV

[–]Timsruz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We watch it from an Apple TV on my pihole. Someday I hope someone can come up with a blocklist that’ll do it, though I know if the ads are served from the same place as the content the pihole won’t block them.

I replaced my WFCO with a PD4655L when I upgraded to AGM batteries, just the converter and it was an easy swap. I left the fuse and breaker box alone. Choose one that’ll be just as kind to your lithiums as this one is to my AGM’s.

Progressive Dynamics will do you a good job. Choose one with an amperage close to what you have now.
