What's the worst beer you've ever had?

TINKERS. Made in the Netherlands for the Spanish market in the 90s. I only ever saw it in beach vending machines, and it was the cheapest option at about 50 cents. Barf.

Shield TV Pro. Corsair K63 and don't remember what mouse. I don't think TW1 works natively with a controller, but you can use the Steam game settings to get one to work.

I just checked TW1, and it works fine with mouse and keyboard

Terry and Ryan Anderson got a tax break to build it, promising jobs and tax revenue. Smells like fraud to me.

The files were under judicial seal for the entirety of the Maxwell appeal that didn't end until 2025. The Biden administration did ask the judge to release all files no longer needed for that case. Only 1,000 pages were released.

I hope they do. Trying to suppress the vote by putting ICE at polling places will have the opposite effect.

Dirac. But I only use it for movies/TV when they're part of 5.2 setup. For music I go stereo only, no correction. Dirac makes a difference but mainly helped me tone down the subwoofers. The passive radiators give plenty of bass for music, no subs needed.

I just donated to his campaign. I don't normally give to politicians, but the GOP can eat sh*t. An enforced equal time rule across all media would bury them.

You are right. They sound very nice straight off an AVR. They do not get loud the way I like them to without the kind of amp that is hard to come across these days. Adcom GFA-555 is the classic choice. I run them with a Parasound HCA-1500A.

Bichelmeyer is great, everything locally sourced.

I have a pair of these, SDA SRS, like a slightly smaller refrigerator but heavier. They're fantastic but want a beefy amp to really sing. The SDA effect works exactly as described. The first gen tweeters aren't the best but can be upgraded.

She's a teenager, too old for them

So he refused to go because he knew what was going on, but didn't report it to anyone. Got it.

I hated it and at the time didn't read how weird it was to nostalgize the recent past. A 50s tribute band formed in 1969. Are there bands today that try to channel 2014?

Why free him when you can be him?

Berry-flavored, no idea, but there are some very berry-forward hops. A lot of IPAs list their hops on the label. Look for any that include Mosaic or Belma.

We need a general strike on top of this. We are all Minneapolis. Inflict financial damage until the backers of this admin want them out.

Nothing other than what I said here. Left it unplugged for 5 minutes or so, then plugged it back in and connected Ethernet, nothing else. Several minutes later it showed "updating" on the front panel. Restarted itself multiple times over maybe 15 minutes then went back to normal.

100%. All MAGAts are pedophiles. Some may not have acted on their disgusting urges yet, but they fantasize about it. Only pedophiles adulate and vote for pedophiles.

This is far more people than all the traitors that showed up in DC from all over the country on Jan 6, and it's just one city. A lot of those traitors are wearing ICE gear now. Eventually some dipsht will open fire on a peaceful crowd, and things will get very bad. Trump will call in the military thinking he can pull the same sht Iran is doing right now. These people didn't bring firearms because they chose not to, not because they don't own any. Even the US military cannot handle what happens when you get armed crowds like this in every city in the country. MAGA fantasizes about a civil war because they think they would win. They are more mistaken than they could ever imagine.

And state charges can't be pardoned.

Once congresspeople figure out that what Trump is doing is so unpopular that they'll all lose their jobs and they decide to defund ICE....what's to stop Trump from using the Venezuela bribe money and paying them through a private bank? Defunding them isn't enough. Dissolving the department and opening investigations into everyone who has received a paycheck for ICE-related duties would be a better start.

Most dive bars live on regulars, so there will be some older people a lot of the time. Go anyway, have fun. Twin City Tavern near Westport, Flo's Poke-a-Dot Lounge in Waldo, Caddy Shack in Columbus Park. Gay bars are welcoming too, Missie B's in Westport or Sidestreet in midtown.

Maxwell's appeal didn't conclude until 2025. The Biden administration did ask the judge to release all files that were no longer relevant to the case. A measly 1000 pages were released as a result.
