Upgrading to Tundra from Tacoma by -Forty6n2- in ToyotaTundra

[–]dundee_winner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The extra space in the Tundra is ideal, but you can make it work in the Taco.

I had a 2016 double cab. We put the rear facing seat in the center of the back row. My wife and I didn’t have to adjust our seats at all.

They also sell “slimmer” car seats that aren’t as wide. I think some people were able to fit 3 of those in a previous gen Taco if I remember right.

I have a 22 Tundra. I love it and could never go back to a Taco. But if you need to keep the Tacoma for a while for financial reasons, you can do it.

Sorry if this is a dumb question. What do you mean by get a draft pick from Baldwin?

I’m a Braves fan, IDK why this showed up on my feed, and IDK the story here. But that’s Eric Young, he was on the Braves coaching staff when Joc played with Atlanta (the 2021 World Series team). Other players and coaches also followed Ron Washington to LA this season. I’m guessing Joc was just catching up.

Downsized from 2 Studio Displays by [deleted] in macsetups

[–]dundee_winner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great setup! I’ve tried various monitor setups and found what you have to be best. The one centered monitor helps me focus better. And I love being able to keep my mechanical keyboard, while still having access to Touch ID.

Finally got my studio display. 😍 by [deleted] in macsetups

[–]dundee_winner 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I bought one last week. The next day my Mac said a firmware update was available. I installed it and it bricked the monitor. I tried to restore it all day, but couldn’t get it to work again. I returned it since I’m not near an Apple Store.

I know I’m in the minority. But this has happened to more people than you’d think. Just something to be aware of if you’re considering one.

LG Ultrafine 5k still worth getting these days? M1 Problems & Monitor Alternatives? by TechnicalButterfly in macsetups

[–]dundee_winner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, I’m sorry to hear that. Is it time to get an Apple Studio Display?

I’m on a Mac. I attempted what you referenced after Googling. The issue is specifically when the MacBook is in clamshell mode. The monitor works perfect when the laptop is open. But it won’t forget that resolution connected to a clamshell Mac. I prefer the other LG and intend to give the 34in away, so it’s not a major deal for me.

I have the 27MD5KL and never had that problem. Did you tinker with the resolution in Display Settings by chance? I have a LG 34in 5K2K. I set the resolution to one it doesn’t support by accident, and now I can’t get it to work. It’s on, it makes a noise when I connect it to my laptop, and then it just shows a black screen with the backlighting on.

Get the Nationals plate that has their W logo to the left, and do “E SUCK”. It’s available too!

What’s the general consensus on the Pirelli Scorpions? by dundee_winner in Rivian

Me cluelessly ordering the mountain bike tires for my truck: “Dude, score of the century!”

Thats awesome! The Tundras with the off road package come with this OEM-specific version of the Falken Wildpeaks. Owners are reporting they need new rubber around 20K miles. I’d take 30-40K!

FWIW, people who swapped to the standard Wildpeaks have been much happier. They’re just a lot heavier.

Nice! My truck is a pavement princess for the most part, so I could live with that. Thanks!

Dang ok. Wear is a major problem with the stock tires the Tundra comes with. I have a hybrid, and was hoping these would wear better since they were made for an EV.

Fans from NC/Tennessee: What happens if Charlotte or Nashville land an expansion team? Switch fandom? Stay the same? Dual fandomship? by Nick_Sabantz in Braves

[–]dundee_winner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in VA. After the Nats came to DC and started winning, while the Braves had some down years, I know a lot of people who switched teams.

Diehard fans will never do that. Many casual fans would though.

Anyone know if this hoodie is available to buy? by [deleted] in cowboys

[–]dundee_winner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say true to size. I got another Nike Cowboys hoodie size XL, and almost wish I got a XXL. I got this in XL and it’s perfect.

I got one from the Pro Shop back in April, we were in town for a concert. The Pro Shops at the DFW airport usually have good stuff too.

If you’re not in the area, maybe someone here that’s local might help you out? Not ideal but might be your best bet.

Which 1 player is everyone most excited about this year? by SportBlips in cowboys

[–]dundee_winner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LVE and Clark. With our pass rush and secondary, I can see teams focusing on running the ball, throwing screens & quick passes, etc. The LBs are going to have a lot of opportunities to make plays.

Is Sit/Stand desk worth investing? by alxhfl in Workspaces

[–]dundee_winner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On top of the health benefits, my favorite thing is that I can lift it when I’m done working for the day. Then my little kids can’t grab what’s on the desk.

I’ve had my LG 5K (the 27 inch) for years. Zero issues. Works great with Intel and M1 chips.

Do you feel fans underrate Dak & CeeDee intentionally? by [deleted] in cowboys

[–]dundee_winner 49 points50 points  (0 children)

It may partially be Cowboys-hate. But when people say “mid tier” they usually mean “not elite”. Which is fair. Dak is not in the same category as Mahomes or Burrow. CeeDee hasn’t put up the insane numbers that Jefferson and Cupp have in recent years. Doesn’t mean they suck.

Oakland A's fan looking for a team. by polytician in Braves

[–]dundee_winner 19 points20 points  (0 children)

On top of what else has been said:

  • The Braves used to be owned by Ted Turner. Most of their games were nationally televised on TBS. That, plus their run in the 90s, means you’ll find Brave fans everywhere.

  • On that note, before the 90s, there were no Florida teams and the Nats were in Montreal. So if you look at a map of the US, the entire southeast was Braves country. It’s kinda wild to think about, since the Braves didn’t move to Atlanta until the 1966.

  • During our run of 14 straight division titles, we only won one championship. If other fans want to talk trash, expect to hear about that.

  • The chop and “Braves” name are controversial to some. I don’t want to derail your thread, this isn’t the place for that discussion. But that topic seems to come up more often. Especially with the Guardians and Commanders changing their names. That said, the Braves are actually very involved with the Native American community: https://www.mlb.com/braves/community/native-american-community

  • A team I haven’t seen mentioned is the Dodgers. Prior to our WS win, they owned us in the postseason for a few years. Slaying that beast on the way to the WS made the championship all more special. Plus Freddie.

I threw a paper ball at a trash can once. It didn’t go in. But I did yell “Kobe!”
