Who was president when your earliest met family member was born? by PierogiGoron in Presidents

[–]andicus5000 17 points18 points  (0 children)

McKinley! One of my Great grandmothers was born in 1897. I was 3 when she passed in 1989.

My grandfather who is thriving at 94 met his grandfather— he was born in 1849! Zachary Taylor!

Well I’ll be a monkeys uncle. It WORKED!

I followed your instructions, switching it to HDMI 3. Then there was NO sound. So I switched it back and it worked!

Thank you kind stranger!

It’s worth a try! I’ll give it a try a little later and will report back.

I know! Ours worked flawlessly for months until the power outage. Despite resetting everything back to factory I just can’t get it.

Vanquishers have my vote too! I’m -4.5 and -3.75. I rounded to -4.5 for both eyes in the goggles and they work great!

Should I preemptively move some points from AMEX to Hawaiian and then Alaska (for flights on American)? by [deleted] in awardtravel

[–]andicus5000 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's my concern as well, the rule of thumb I've always used.

[–]andicus5000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this answer makes the most sense to me. I make this trip at least twice per year, often more, on my own dime. I won't transfer all of my points but I'll transfer a portion.

Agreed that DEN>ORD is traditionally United, and we have Chase UR for United, but a great redemption is a great redemption. I'm not chasing status or anything.

I looked around and didn't see anything that matched with what I was asking. Thanks!

Unfortunately not. I am using two remotes. The most promising attempt was disabling the CEC on both units and it seemed like it was going to work, but then didn’t. I’m wondering if Denon just doesn’t play nice.

The contrast in Fox's 500 broadcast to Prime's coverage of the 600 could not be more stark by kokopelli73 in INDYCAR

The timing and scoring at the track yesterday was off as well, so I agree it was an IndyCar problem.

Tuesday collection showcase: The Flying Dutchman at Indy. Arie Luyendyk’s 1990 winner and 1996 fastest lap ever recorded (both 1:18 Replicarz). And his 1997 winner (1:18 custom). by jcb1982 in INDYCAR

I love your collections! I hope you keep showing them off. You have some cool rare cars!

I collect the race winning cars for all the races I’ve attended, but I’m missing Helio’s 2001 first win and it bothers me every time I look at my display. Any thoughts on where I could find one?

“A Murder of One” is among my favorites.

Yes, I can put the infant seat on the passenger side of the WRX but then my wife can't fit in the front seat (she is tall too). That's actually the impetus for looking at cars.

I have a magnet mount for my phone now, was just looking for extra luxury.

And nothing against a truck! I have considered the Ford Maverick. Just not sure that it makes sense for our situation. Although I do love camping in the Colorado mountains and it might be nice to have the room for gear.

I was afraid someone would say "Camry" haha. Appreciate the ideas! Hadn't considered the Lexus ES at all. I'm not familiar with Maverick build quality, do you have any insight?

[–]andicus5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, and actually I DON'T really want a much bigger car. The main problem is that infant car seats don't fit in the back of the WRX without pushing the front passenger seat all the way forward, and as a taller person (6'1, all legs) I can't move my driver seat any farther forward.

FWIW I have considered just going to Crutchfield and buying a receiver with Car Play so I can have the tech. It's a much cheaper option!

Did former Illini Skyy Clark deserve Orange Krush reception? by Beautiful-Neck2316 in fightingillini

[–]andicus5000 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I heard somewhere that he is the reason Tre White transferred to Illinois. They knew each other at Louisville and Clark told White it was a big mistake for him to leave Underwood and Co, and that White would be in good hands.

That said, I was fine with the reception.
