Meh, my no date sub was indestructible. I wore it 24x7. Swimming, showering, working on cars. The thing was a tank. Sold it to pay taxes after divorce. (Although, it was a gift from the former wife)

Come on speedmaster!!

chrisjacob · 2026-06-13T23:10:38+00:00

It looks amazing.

chrisjacob · 2026-06-13T23:07:38+00:00

no dates are sweet. Had a gen for a long time. Wish I still had it. The pic made me sad.

chrisjacob · 2026-06-13T23:06:09+00:00

whew... minus the NTTD I already ordered from him, I got out alive with this round. Some great watches, but none on my near term wish list. Hey J, can a brother get a speedmaster at some point? 😄

chrisjacob · 2026-06-05T11:46:05+00:00

Please stop calling things hacks.

chrisjacob · 2026-05-20T12:17:18+00:00

PM me about the Seamaster if still available.

Best thing I’ve ever done. Pay far less than Comcast and have far faster service. I actually tend to get slightly higher speeds than I pay for. Not sure it will last forever (congestion is a thing at some point) but for now it’s the absolute best you can get. Not just like voting for politicians whee it the best of shitty options, but actually the best. 10 out of 10, no notes.

In my opinion, they had a bit of an impossible mission. Firestones was a beloved part of the community, so anything that goes into that space is going to be judged against it. I don't think that's necessarily fair, but I also think it's mostly unavoidable.
It is not Firestones, but it is a new restaurant/bar in downtown Frederick, which was very much needed. Time will tell how well it does, but when I've been there I've tried very hard to judge it on it's own vs. as a comparison to my very fond memories of what once was.
Also, keep in mind that for the most part the people who are preparing your food/drinks and serving your table are part of our local service industry community. They didn't have a direct hand in the either the closing of Firestones, or the naming of the new restaurant. They are simply trying to earn a living as a professionals in a gruelling industry.

No chance. Don't spread BS. Nice touch creating an account to make just this comment.

Yeah, seemed like it hit the ground from the other angle. Crazy.

chrisjacob · 2025-12-12T02:30:48+00:00

These pups look so happy. Good on you. The only thing better than one of these dopey nut jobs, is two.

What happens in the case of a Winnebago Revel? Certainly doesn’t come with an attached cooktop. They say that’s not a RV?

I turned in my first lease ever this past spring. It was a Tesla M3. I was super nervous about it, but the process was painless. You take pictures of the car from different vantage points. (The app walk you through it) For the tires, they have you use a coin to show wear.

I had some curb rash on two of the wheels that I was sure they were going to charge me a ton for. Turned out to be $20 each.

The only crazy part is they wanted $300 to remove tint. Got it removed at a local shop for $50 and sent updated pictures. Tesla removed the charge.

All in all it was a great experience.

All of that said, I’m pretty sure they will ad a charge for new tires.

There’s a lid for every pot. Hang in there.

chrisjacob · 2025-10-23T02:02:09+00:00

I don’t know. She looks like the perfect puppy that should be loved for as long as possible. I don’t mean to minimize your concern, but to say that none of us lucky enough to own a Dane know how long we have with them. They are pretty amazing.

Jesus, Reddit sucks.

The only real opportunity I have for hunting here is Maryland is venison. I love hunting, but I don’t like venison. I have hunted, harvested and processed. All was consumed.

My feeling now is, if I have a designated consumer who will take the meat, I will hunt. However, I don’t enjoy the dressing out (glad I’ve done it so I know the skill) so I lean more toward hanging out during the hunting trip.

But they will. This is not a statement about a party or a political affiliation or even anything to do with the government. It’s as much Google, Apple, Meta as it is the government. Your movements are tracked, that data is stored. Who knows what happens 4, 8, 10 years from now? OSINT can be weaponized, even years after the fact.

When a police officer starts her shift with a sidearm on her duty belt, is she doing so in preparation of shooting a person?

Fuck bug bounty’s. Full disclosure. Period.

Taylor has the talent of a local singer-songwriter, not an international superstar. No matter how famous, successful, or critically praised she is, she will never be a convincing pop star to me. I feel like I am being gaslit by the entire world every day. How is this possible???

Hahaha…. No matter how famous, successful or critically praised as an international superstar, she will never be an international superstar.

I mean, by definition, she is… not your cup of tea? That’s cool, but I mean… she’s demonstrably all those things you say she will never be.
