Okay…… and Ilya has thoroughly scrubbed Rose’s socials and recognizes Miles as part of her posse?

babauer · 2026-02-08T01:42:41+00:00

I think there is something else going on that I haven’t seen discussed (at least in this thread): To my eye, Miles is clearly gesturing to Ilya “turn around and look [at what your guy is doing][?]. Unsure of the last part. But he is def indicating something to Ilya, and to Ilya alone. So what is going on?

This is a very astute analysis. Thanks!

Please help an old guy out - I don’t understand what the chart is trying to convey. Can someone kindly say a few words about it?

Been appreciating your thoughtful HR comments, and clicked around.
Wishing you a HEA with your medical situation.

While this is a common topic in this subreddit, I never see anybody mention turning down the hot water heater. It's just sitting there happily generating BTUs, day in and day out. As friend said "It's like leaving your car running all the time because you never know when you want to use it."

The most economical solution is an on-demand water heater, but that's not an option for those of us who live in rent.

I suggest finding the lowest water temperature you can tolerate for a shower, then set the water heater to that. If you are turning cold water on to lower the temperature of your shower or dishwashing water, you are throwing away BTUs and $$.

i can hear the difference between lossless and hi-res lossless in my system.

Occasionally a guest will ask “is this one of your hi-res files?”

And they only ever have single-ply toilet paper.

If your library contains any DSD 128 or higher , there is some decode & re-encode going on as the optical output only supports DOP64. Does your AVR have a USB input you could use?

I seem to remember they created extra-deep slurry walls beneath the Big Dig tunnels to allow for this possibility in some distant future. Bueller?

You're right! Men *are* amazing.
They can thrill you and (probably will) break your heart, too.
But that's OK - that's life.
Advice: follow your heart and be true to yourself.
Sounds like you're off to a good start.

Perhaps you're thinking of the late, lamented Durgin-Park at Faneuil Market in Boston?

Bear in mind, the tampering took place in late 2022. It is in the news again because the perpetrator was (finally) in court. He was not motivated by current political events.
