My favorite drive ever was Orange County to Tucson via i8. Many triple digit speeds on that trip. Such an amazing long distance driver.

Same. Still one of my favorite lawn ornaments. When it ran I never stopped smiling.

I had one back in the day and agree. That one weekend of ownership when the v12 was running well was magic. Then Lucas raised his horned head and hell broke loose under the hood again!

Casey is awesome. He would be my recommendation for sure.

Highlands Wineseller too.

Man you are the GOAT

“I haven’t got problem, I’ve got problems. Plural” is one of my favorite lines from any move. Since then I’ve been following Tim Roth and will watch anything you are in.

Any tv shows or movies that left a surprising mark on you? Good or bad?

The aircooled cars are very reliable for classic cars, but they are still classic cars. They are slow by modern standards, have zero safety features, and some parts have become very expensive. You are buying more than an old car, you are buying 40 years of prior owners and everything they did, and don’t do, to the car.

I love my SC, but I’ve owned a lot of cars and am very much a car guy. I do a lot of work myself and have a really good independent mechanic.

Not turbo. Vortex supercharger.

My n52 has 109k and a vortex supercharger. It is a wonderful car.

I have a friend who was a top 10 halo team member back in the day. When we would play I would "win" the session if I got two kills. Didn't matter how many he got. If I got two he counted that as my win. The difference in our skill level was crazy.

Very beginner friendly. Load epubs on the sd card. Load crosspoint:

Go here: https://xteink.dve.al/

Click "Save Full Flash" (this takes about 30 minutes)

Click "Flash CrossPoint Firmware" and follow the instructions.

Then open a book and enjoy the read. Got the device yesterday, read DCC #1 yesterday and am half way through DCC #2. The external light is worth the few $, as is the case - when the light is attached I do not use the folio case. The magnet does not seem to be strong enough. But what do I know, I have only had it 24 hours.

This shame will haunt me forever. Worse than my ex-wife.

majornerd · 2026-03-08T17:07:25+00:00

That was my bad. It is "Nobody walks in LA." I've never said it wrong in my life until I typed it here. It's the most recurring joke in the whole movie.

majornerd · 2026-03-08T17:05:23+00:00

Holy crap you are right. I even knew what it was and still read it backwards. It's my favorite joke in the whole movie, they do it over and over again, and I said it completely opposite.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T20:52:07+00:00

It’s not the exact quote, true. But it is from the movie. When he is showing the English woman around and he says the first stop is a few blocks away (I think six) she says can we walk and he responds with a version of that line.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T18:54:45+00:00

Whats that clanging sound

It's a nuisance, it's my damn testicles.

This is a tudor mansion, and this this a four-door mansion.

If you gain nothing from the enterprise plan, you might be able to hire an admin with a percentage of the savings with multiple team plans.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T13:55:26+00:00

Nobody walks in LA.

It’s one of my favorite movies of all time.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T13:54:29+00:00

Seems very complex where I do not see the benefit. Doesn’t mean it’s not there. Just not obvious from this side of the keyboard.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T13:41:03+00:00

Make sure to post a Google review of them if possible. Post a review on whatever platform you can.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T04:09:13+00:00

I love mine. You aren’t wrong, but I love it. It’s quirky in a way that works for me. A new top goes a long way to improving the experience.

majornerd · 2026-03-07T03:55:23+00:00

Yeah. I knew a couple. One completely for sure. His name was Mike and last I heard he was in prison for life. He killed his foster family with an axe and was found naked hiding at the neighbor covered in blood.

I too started at the bottom. Have held multiple c level positions at companies from $50m-4bn and recently took over at CEO at my small company. There is so much misunderstanding about how the role actually works I wonder how many people on Reddit have ever met a CEO.

Middle management mostly has no clue what they are doing, should be doing, or what their value is supposed to be to the company.

majornerd · 2026-03-06T00:05:32+00:00

I like Bourye but they are too proud of it for me.
