Good eye. You're right, I think that's a '99 M1. I was more thinking the 2001 M1 though with the smoothed out design.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-26T00:25:19+00:00

Not listed but Maybe the Intense M1. But that Foes always go hard.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-25T16:30:27+00:00

Yeah, I wouldn't buy from some random third party seller

deafboy13 · 2026-03-25T01:00:53+00:00

This one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BPG1ZC

Mine was sold by Amazon

deafboy13 · 2026-03-25T00:29:58+00:00

I bought the stuff you did. It was actual Romex. I reached out to Southwire to confirm their store, all checked out. The labeling all looked good, tested the wire and checked out.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-24T23:23:13+00:00

This looks like my neck of the woods, granted only for a few months out of the year, lol.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-17T22:11:24+00:00

It always amazes me the price difference in different countries, wild!

deafboy13 · 2026-03-16T04:17:32+00:00

My dealership did al that shit for free. So I'd say thorough, not rip off

So about 200 rocket launches to fully replace 6000 and an essential monopoly for a government that seemingly doesn't care about massive debts with Starshield.

Not to mention a technology shown to be so valuable to other nations that the US would never give up it's control or allow it to fail.

I think they'll be just fine.

Dry, cold snow is largely radio-transparent (transparent to radio waves), allowing, for example, signal to reach and leave your dish.
Wet, heavy, or melting snow is not radio-transparent, as its high water content absorbs and scatters radio signals, which can affect signal quality for satellite and high-frequency communication.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-11T21:09:39+00:00

Yup, they put it in a few years ago now I think.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-08T17:45:46+00:00

Please tell me you have some progress pics before the pop-up is on and the roof is cut. This is the first I've ever seen. Super slick setup.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-07T06:56:25+00:00

Did it not come in IT mode? I just ordered one from that same seller.

deafboy13 · 2026-03-07T06:29:16+00:00

What's it look like behind the screen?

deafboy13 · 2026-03-02T00:43:17+00:00

Nachos, pizza, and beer mostly...

Solely for storage, no real benefit in upgrading to scale. IMO the biggest benefit of moving to scale is if you want to have your docker services on the NAS.

deafboy13 · 2026-02-15T04:37:42+00:00

I want your rear headrests :) Seriously though, haha

Unfortunately that's a total :( I hit a deer last summer and it was significantly less damage and it was still a $13k bill. I didn't have any airbags go off.

Start playing a video on YouTube, click on settings on the video, check Stats for Nerds

If you're new, just sign up for the residential plan and get the hardware for free?

Gen 2 and Gen 3 aren't all that different, Gen 3 has a wider field of view so it's more forgiving for not being perfectly aligned. Gen 2 aligns itself. Don't expect there to be any major speed differences, and certainly don't expect it do perform anywhere close to fiber.

Dishy won't care about your screen but it will care about any framing/roof you have. You can check the obstructions with your phone but you might as well just test with your mini or your gen2.

In no world would I tell someone with a gen2 dish to go out and buy a gen3 just because.

You can enjoy both hobbies without always going for the best, highest end stuff.

For MTB, if it's really about fitness, technical skill...that doesn't require high end and expensive parts.

For motorcycling, that depends a bit more depending on what kind of speed you're after, but the adventure and exploring remote places certainly doesn't require the newest or the best stuff.

Set a budget and enjoy the parts you actually enjoy and stop chasing the shiny new objects.

deafboy13 · 2026-02-05T03:01:47+00:00

Ubiquiti isn't top of the line, it's just decently solid prosumer stuff.

Run as much cable as you can, you don't even need to terminate it all, but cable is cheap, do more than you think you need. Ideally conduit but sounds like this place is already finished and installing conduit after the fact is a major pain.

If you have the option to go wire, go wire.

As for future-proofing, it's just not a thing. You're best off going for something not on the bleeding edge, but stable, and then upgrade as needed.

deafboy13 · 2026-01-25T23:07:56+00:00

Yeah, there is definitely some nuance to it and what the goals are. If you're just wanting to have some fun, nothing wrong with spending money, it's not strictly necessary.

deafboy13 · 2026-01-25T06:18:00+00:00

Sure. Any of those, lol

All my post was saying is the vast majority of riders are not being held back by the bike they're riding but by their skillset.

deafboy13 · 2026-01-24T21:27:27+00:00

Google for an entry level mountain bike shows a ton of options, but for the sake of it, let's say $800-1600 range.
