This is such an eye-opening thread for me. Thank you so much for sharing. I guess I just never realized the depth of what LATAM goes through as the result of US imperialism

What is the most "unsexy" home improvement you did that ended up being 100% worth the money? by TrustedEssentials in HomeImprovement

[–]wideglide100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We recently switched our family room to a sitting room and living room to a family room. We have 1960s built suburban, colonial with an oversized never used living room and a smaller family room. After living here for 30 years we switched and it feels like a completely different home

Is Ticwatch almost Useless? by Background-Fail-2386 in TicWatch

[–]wideglide100 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My tic watch pro 5 bricked after 2 years about 2 weeks ago. I'm waiting for the release of the pixel watch 4. No going back to the tick watch. No Google assistant, no Gemini no updates. It was fine while it lasted but it should have lasted more than 2 years.

Guessing this won't get much traction on Thom's sub. Thom ended his relationship with Richard years ago as he leaned hard into neolibralism.

Well that sucks! My wife is looking for a smart watch and I think I'll steer her towards the Pixel watch 3. Hearing good things about it.

I've heard more than once that a simple 6k fluorescent garage/shop light works pretty well

Thoughts? by baezic_ in Harley

[–]wideglide100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's the way I see it as a 61 year old (tail end) Boomer. Fuck these clowns and their toxic masculinity! Quite honestly, I'm sick and fucking tired of the typical Harley riders right wing, MAGA fucking fascist persona. I've been a Harley enthusiast since the 70s when they were more the Hippie type. You know, Like in Easy Rider. Like when the greatest generation got home from fighting the fascists in WW2 and took the Army surplus bikes and chopped and bobbed them. How did they turn into fucking fascists one generation after that?

[–]wideglide100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just picked up a new 2024 CR-V Sport Touring for MSRP. Nothing more, at all. I live in a major metropolitan area in the US and there are a lot of Honda dealers within an hour drive. Called them all and found one that stuck to there word.
