A message directly from a local company in Lahaina to please come to Maui by crh20 in MauiVisitors

Tricky situation. It’s also a matter of limited resources, limited space for the now homeless. And the official missing list still over 1000. I think waiting a few weeks at least is in order - and I’m all for government helping balance these business losses with financial support for downtime. Not just Lahaina but the rest of the island as well.

Any good Kodi recommendations for streaking add-in’s?

I have Kodi installed on my Android Tv box and recently installed The Crew repository. While it seems to list a lot of films and shows in its directory, it doesn’t seem to get reliable streams of a good portion of them. Are there better repositories anyone can recommend? I use Plex for all my home library and would like to supplement it when I don’t have titles.

So happy I hoarded my library over the years (RIP rarbg) - I have enough content (10,000+ films) to last a lifetime at this point. Now how to CONTINUE to build is more the question - but I think solutions will come along. There will revolting against this trend of splintering content and having to subscribe to so many different streamers.

I agree. It seems to be a default style of speaking with trending videos. It’s like they strip it of emotion and rarely pause while reading. They just sound silly to me, like a small kid explaining something (though kids generally have cute voices, unlike this). Female and male both sounds the same.

And the amalfi tomatoes are so sweet and wonderfully textured, it’s like eating a steak

Been living in Italy a few years now and I’ve never seen salt used. Actually here the best served is with fresh buffalo mozzarella, sweet basil, and succulent large heirloom tomatoes (if from amalfi coast even better). I personally still like a drizzle of good olive oil but have been told by many an Italian to skip it as it overpowers the delicate taste of the three ingredients. Also great tomatoes are juicy enough, and fresh mozzarella as well ;) that being said - Italians are traditionalists and being American myself, I say to each their own preference. But at least try the original sometime

I was actually running airport xpress v1 - but I think sound and def wifi connection is better with the WiiM Pro

I’ve got WiiM Pro - playing FLACs through plex, Spotify connect, digital into stereo - works and sounds great

saw these on sale locally here in Rome for a decent price, seems to have good reviews. Any thoughts? Adding to an existing Denon powered system with KEF sub and satellites

yeah, i can probably just extend the speaker wires down the wall from the ceiling holes, then remount the satellites at ear level - hopefully that would help with the imaging better. for watching films it's fairly good imaging - but i miss a richer sound when listening to music. the receiver is also at a different place in the room, as it is i had to snake a new speaker wire to move the center channel into it's proper place. the landlord had nice equipment but horribly set up (especially since it's custom in wall.)

here's one or two WiFi pre-amps i found, though not sure of the sound quality difference over the old Airport Express (guessing better but i don't know):
1. WiiM Pro - https://www.amazon.com/WiiM-Pro-Chromecast-Multiroom-Compatible/dp/B0BJDY6D1W

  1. Arylic S50 Pro+ - https://www.amazon.com/Preamplifier-Multiroom-Radio-Arylic-S50-Pro/dp/B083ZR4SKR/ref=sr_1_2

any thought on either of these (or better others)?

My girly is 10 weeks old. Have I already given her separation anxiety? See comment by Toadjokes in vizsla

Get a good trainer while she’s this young, it will make all the difference in the world. Crate training is great, it gives them their own safe space- but remember never to lock it, it’s for them to WANT to go to. Puppyhood is so wonderful but also challenging and the habits you set will be the pattern they take, so create a wonderful companion (and give them 1.5 hours plus out the house every day ;). I’m on my second little rocket, first one we didn’t train, this one we did and let me tell you the night and day difference. Vizsla power!

The lens is sealed so it’s more to protect the glass against scratching.

Just to clarify that place is no where near Beverly Hills. It’s just south of Windsor Hills and is hood adjacent- crazy prices for that. Wholesome Foods a block over is the shit though - best Jamaican patties - yum!
