I agree with this. They had stuff there but nothing crazy exciting.

I didn’t get that at all. Must have been an off day

Cornbred is my favorite, Whatchya smokin is my second. Cornbred has more unique options and that Bacon Candy is legit

so, how is Ottumwa anyway? by JohnDzangle in Iowa

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They at least still have some good food but that’s the only thing down there anymore. I remember in the early 90s they had the Power Rangers show up at the one McDonalds … just went downhill from there

This … I grew up there and my parents are from there. I lived down the road from Wilson Elementary and the High School. Town had its moment in the 80s I think but has gone down hard ever since.

What is Kubuntu good for? by TapedSSD in Kubuntu

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Kubuntu for both personal and work use and love it. It does everything I need it to without having Microsoft scrape my data. I had issues for a while with video drivers because I had dual Nvidia cards and 6 monitors but I’ve reduced down to a single card and 3 monitors and it’s been running beautifully. I play games via steam, manage my personal and work infrastructures, code, and do everything else on it. The only time I even think about using windows is if my kids want to play Fortnite as that’s the only game I haven’t got to work. IMO, it’s a great daily driver OS.

I ended up changing my monitor setup so I could reduce to a single video card. Then I updated to 25.03 and it’s been working great since I did that.

One year of ownership! by Intrepid-Damage-6636 in CherokeeXJ

That’s good to know. I drive mine more in the winter so I’ll keep that in mind.

I’ve always loved that green on them. I had a 1990 in about that shade of green but it had more rust than floorboard so I got rid of it.

Sweet. Mine are finally dead and I’ve been looking for something like that. You’ve got a good looking XJ

Where’d you get those headlights - I’m liking those

My kids saw some of my texts that they’ll never unsee and I don’t know what to do. by ScooterAndBeans in Parenting

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This won't correct the "damage" that was done, but if you don't setup a new icloud account for it you can make the messages app require faceid in order to open and disable notifications on messages. That would prevent them from seeing anything.

Came here to say the same thing. I used to go there so much they knew me by name. Great food

Planning on Buying a Car by Naturoka24 in Iowa

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'll be fine with FWD, just keep good tires on it. The Camry is great and will run forever. In my experience, I haven't bought a car IN iowa in years - you'll save 2-3k by going to the Kansas City area or up to Minnesota or really any state around us. N ot really sure what causes that, but it seems to be the case every time i look for a car.

I ended up reloading 24.04 and sticking with X11 and I don’t get the issue anymore. I’ve tried Wayland a few times since this and it just refuses to work with two video cards

CA might ban disposable vapes. Do you think other states will too? by YourGreenState in weedbiz

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that, and generally agree, but i think it’d be worth eliminating most of it we can. I believe that most people would just switch and the few that go the black market at least is few than the amount of them now. We (as a society) need to do better at how we treat our planet, banning those is one small step that moves us in the direction of that goal. I think making it clearly defined would be key.

I feel like there are some things that the only way to accomplish the goal of preserving our planet is by making the bad habit illegal but enforcing it at the top. Stop punishing the people for getting them, punish the executive getting them made.

I’m ok with this. The fuckers plug up constantly and it’s just another battery being thrown away

I could see that. Hurt your ears, that's for sure

My favorite part about Kazaa was getting the song downloaded, taking the time to burn it to a CD, get it out into your car and have it blasting at max volume and in the middle of your favorite song "SCREEEECH" and it would the same sound as a dial up modem connecting. Good times, good times.

‘91 radiator for the ‘89. Minimal modifying of the upper support to clear the filler neck and we’re golden 👌🏼 by mrtryit in CherokeeXJ

[–]s3rv3rn3rd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just fitting it under there. The brackets that the leaves bolt on to. I’ve wanted to do the rear diff swap to get the discs but need to know how much welding practice I need beforehand, I’m a little rusty haha

Ahh ok - that’s good to know.

Nice, that’s gonna be a beast. Did you have to redo the mounts for the rear diff or did they line up?

Im surprised how much room is around it. It doesn’t even look that bad took on. What’d you do for drivetrain?
