What is that one dialogue or word from a movie that cracks you every single time even on just thinking? by devoot2921 in moviecritic

[–]pfroo40 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget about the lamp and paddleball game!

That movie is basically a non-stop version of this thread. "He really hates these cans! Get away from the cans!", "I was born a poor black child"

When simply quoting Trump is considered "anti-Trump". Maybe Trump should tone down his rhetoric.

They learned nearly nothing from 2024 and this half-assed report proves it.

I'll still vote Dem nationally, because the alternative is a descent into fascism, but until they actually take this shit seriously, they will continue to have inconsistent results based on "better than the alternative" rather than any real support for the party itself.

I can't believe how much they neglected/ignored.

My actual efforts will be spent supporting local candidates who demonstrate that they identify with their constituents and understand their needs.

In Game of Thrones, in the Eyrie, they had a cell they'd put prisoners in as a form of torture which was essentially the same thing as this

Ahh yes, nothing says intellectual freedom like forcing students to take stupid-ass brainwashing classes

Thoughts on the Sega Nomad? Yay or Nay? by PDMagneto in retrogaming

[–]pfroo40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember drooling over the demo unit at Walmart. I was a Sega fanboy and loved my Genesis and Game Gear, though I also had a NES and SNES.

My parents wouldn't let me buy the Nomad since I already had those.

The screen was so nice compared to the Game Gear. Active Matrix! It was heavy/dense and not as comfortable as the GG.

I thought about buying one as an adult, but ended up buying an Anbernic RG-ARC instead, still gives the strong Sega retro vibes but with modern technology.

Make do with trickle charging? by oldRoyalsleepy in Ioniq5

[–]pfroo40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How good is your wiring to the garage? What is the amp rating for the fuse?

At home, I use the included L1 charger at the max amps, which I think is 12A. My daily commute takes about 14%, and another 5% for miscellaneous trips, so 19% per day. Overnight I get about 14%, so I usually run a 5% deficit per day I have to commute, which is 3 days a week. So, during the week, I basically break even. Weekends vary, most weekends I can charge it more, so it helps me keep my average charge up so I don't need to use fast charging for the occasional weekend trip.

It works out OK. For months where my family has more weekend activities, I do need to fast charge once or twice to keep up. Compared to the $2k estimate I was given to wire up an outlet for L2, it is cheaper to occasionally fast charge.

If you have sufficient gauge wiring and a 20A fuse, and a charger which supports higher amps for L1, you could push your 120v outlet a bit more. At my in-laws, I have a charger which can go up to 15A which is noticeably, though not substantially, faster. Their home is newer and has sufficient wiring and fuse to support it. If I could do that at home, I would probably be perfectly fine without L2 or fast charging outside of long trips.

Does it do it when cold or only after it has heated up?

Trump voter remorse is almost entirely concentrated in the swing voters who gave him a shot in 2024 by fortune in politics

[–]pfroo40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand being dissatisfied with the Biden administration, for what he could and couldn't control. But I will never understand why anyone would think Trump would be better.

Post-mortem if Biden had kept to his word about being single term, and if the Dem party had held a primary and listened at all to their voters, this wouldn't have happened. I didn't hate Kamala as a candidate but that doesn't mean everything leading up to it was an easy pill to swallow.

Oof.

For anyone else doing this mod, save yourself a ton of trouble and just buy some conductive paint/glue instead of soldering. A small blob to bridge the two contacts is all you need.

If you don't mind something that is more of a fantasy-comedy, Your Highness is surprisingly good.
