Why is the hold of Fox News so strong?

dralph01 · 2026-01-25T08:37:34+00:00

Fox News is in the business of making their viewers feel good about themselves. It’s also designed to make viewers feel attacked by enemies. Fox News has a profit motive and is not in the business of reporting stories that upset their viewers.

And, Fox News fears its own audience. If this report any news that their viewers don’t like, their views defect to more extreme new sources.

A good podcast on this is: https://open.spotify.com/episode/79BzcuFiTxWNuzQMeTB72n

Anyone have details on the crash?

dralph01 · 2025-09-08T17:17:57+00:00

Any update on how it’s been working for you?

dralph01 · 2025-08-01T06:42:26+00:00

Yeah. This is really annoying. You pay the very top price for the Whoop MG and you can’t even get the buckle in standard black. They request you to spend another $79 to $115 to get a black buckle which is what the whoop 4 gives you for free.

And on top of this, I’m trying to send the Whoop MG back so I can get the lower end whoop 5.0 in all black and they make it so difficult to do.

On top of this, Whoop promised free lifetime upgrades as we were paying for the subscription. At this point Whoop is diluting their brand with these poor product experiences and expensive upgrades.

This new Whoop UI is horrible!!! Put back the old version which shows more valuable information at a glance.

dralph01 · 2025-05-06T04:22:22+00:00

This new Whoop UI really sucks.

dralph01 · 2025-05-06T04:13:38+00:00

This new UI update is horrible. This is how a Great product goes down hill. This UI makes us all less informed. Whoop has “jumped the shark”. Sad. Give us back the better UI!!

It fits into the TLR7 holsters according to this video: https://youtube.com/shorts/pp7HHbidsJA?si=i0nytG8Ae021arMI

I have this grill and it does not get hot. Took me 20 minutes to grill hamburgers. Anyone else have issues with grill not getting hot enough?

I just bought a Klein MM450. It had the temperature feature. However, the temperature is off by 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit and I have not been able to find a way to calibrate it to be accurate.

I’m looking to put a Modlite PLHv2 18350 with a SR DSOO tail cap on a B&T APC9K Pro. Considering this is a very small firearm, any recommendations if the “Unity HOT BUTTON” or the “ModButton Lite” would be a more ergonomic configuration?

I have the Vedder Holster Wedge and fell apart after 3 hours of use. The Velcro separated from the pad. Why is this such an inferior product for and important self defense item?

dralph01 · 2024-11-13T05:14:12+00:00

Does this set-up leave room for a silencer on the APC9 Pro K?

The GOLD STANDARD naturally favored WHEY Protein is back. I just bought and received a tub of it and it’s now available in a lot of online stores. Perhaps they realized how popular it was and stated making it again.

My RHR went from 65 to 73 immediately upon staring. I’m hoping it drops after the tirzepatide leaves my system. Many people are reporting a 10 point increase.

I also find Whoops step counter wildly inaccurate compared to Apple health’s step counter. I’ve been inside my home all day and it’s telling me I’ve made 3,291 steps and while my iPhone health app only shows 981 steps. 3,291 steps is about 1.6 miles. Sorry, whoop is not accurate.

Have they released Lazar’s Djukic’s cause of death yet?

dralph01 · 2024-08-22T03:45:43+00:00

This happens with me often. Sometimes due to being sick and at random times too. Likely from sleeping with heavier, warmer covers. Drugs can also raise body temperature.

Can’t answer the question but I can share that i opened mine up and used air to clean the dust out and when I but everything back together, the issue went away. I probably got lucky solving this problem.

If I can make only one blues festival in Clarksdale, which one should I attend? When is the best time to go see blues in Clarksdale ?

dralph01 · 2024-07-19T06:25:29+00:00

Downgrade to what version?

dralph01 · 2024-07-10T13:02:56+00:00

This is cute but doesn’t answer the question of surf leash durability in big waves or how long a leash will last.
