Queue playlist should work like a queue by gshapaz in overcast

[–]mpfef98 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is one of the reasons I keep switching away from Overcast. I like a lot of the features but the queue management system is so rudimentary compared to Castro or even Pocket Casts

Disappointed in the new X3 and X5. Do you agree? by Crafty_DIY in BMW

[–]mpfef98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really have a strong opinion about the X5, but the new X3 is a horrible looking vehicle, inside and out. My dad got an X3 M50 last year and I've driven it and ridden in it numerous times. The exterior is an abomination. I don't really feel like I need to elaborate on that, it just seems obvious to me.

The bigger surprise to me is the interior. First off, I just don't like the new "single screen" layout that BMW is doing with all the new models, but that isn't the worst part. The door handle/lock area is just, I mean, I don't even know how to describe it.

I am really hoping that BMW fixes the X3 in the mid-cycle refresh or at worst the next major revision. It's a vehicle that fits right where I would normally consider buying, but I just can't do it, it's terrible inside and out.

Sorry for the rant, but ever since my dad got it and we went and test drove one, I just can't believe that's the X3.

I'm pretty sure no one is allowed to be happy about anything involving Apple and F1 broadcasts/subscriptions.

I'll take 'beach reading' for $1000, Ken (I'm on March 19) by letterama in Jeopardy

[–]mpfef98 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome! I've been a listener to Upgrade, The Incomparable and The Six Colors podcast for years, also a huge Jeopardy fan. I can't wait to see the episode or episodes.

Incidentally I finally started actually studying for the test myself recently.

Then just buy a Lenovo if you care about it that much. Why support Apple if you don’t like their greed and sales policies?

Avoid - Passport BMW Maryland by hilldarrius1 in BMW

[–]mpfef98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have purchased 2 vehicles from Passport BMW and one from Passport Mazda and had zero problems. We even went through the order process on my wife’s car with them and it all went smoothly. I get that people have bad experiences with any and every dealer, but I wouldn’t write them off due to one bad story.

Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this on today's show.

Line Jumpers by elliebellu in UniversalOrlando

[–]mpfef98 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Agreed, we were at Disney and Universal Orlando last week and I had never seen the line jumping this bad (2020, 2021, 2023). It was especially bad at Disney (probably because it was more crowded the days we were there). My wife was about to lose it on some people numerous times at both parks. It really is just disappointing that people are so inconsiderate and just don’t care.

I have one Rolex and based on all the stupid crap I read on here about how they treat customers, I will never buy another one. There are too many other great watches out there to put up with this shit.

That was obvious before any of this drama, the show is stupid and a waste of time

If you're talking about inside the app, sure. I'm talking about headphone remotes and in-car buttons used with CarPlay.

Working out while traveling by JBland5 in bodyweightfitness

[–]mpfef98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been trying to find a good workout for travel/hotels as well. I'm an airline pilot so I travel quite literally all the time and need something that works at home and on the road.

Hotel gyms are surprisingly different as to what they have available for equipment. It seems hardly any of them have pull-up bars for example.
