  1. So, I'm up to about 25 miles per week and really need a gps watch for runs. Holding the phone is not really practical, plus with hotter weather incoming the sweaty hands are becoming more of an issue. Reading DC Rainmaker it seems like my options should be apple watch, FR45, or vivoactive 3 or 4. I use runkeeper on the phone currently, but as this is for a mix of road and trail runs I am mostly looking for something with an altimeter for elevation changes. Ability to follow way points or have maps would be cool but not necessary. Anyone got opinions?
  2. Doesn’t matter how hard the push is, if you’re a regular joe and you do that you rightfully get charged.
  3. You do that on dirty 6th after a night of drinking and you get charged with manslaughter. Jesus.
  4. We sell to OEM in the construction business. Orders are way down but future projects are full steam ahead.
  5. I don't know if this example from Asheville has been discussed, but its depressing how petty cops' behavior has been and how many injuries/bad situations have come from that behavior. Add to that Asheville was one of the cities where cops took a knee to acknowledge the protesters, so I guess that was just a PR move rather than a statement of actual police intentions.
  6. Drive by posting those isn't news or discussion, and is equivalent to masturbation in that while it might feel good for you, it ultimately has no greater point.
  7. All of them.
  8. The men’s soccer league here in austin is planning on reopening play June 21st. I don’t know how I’ll feel in a few weeks, but right now contact sports seems a little out of my comfort zone.
  9. Ya that seems pretty awesome. It’d be nice to not have to kill a tallboy to have a nice local hazy ipa
  10. Supposedly Grayson County had its first death, a dude in his 50s who worked at the Tyson plant in Sherman. NVM, up to 2.
  11. I just re-balanced into some lower expense funds due to a job change. I'm sure that means the market is about to take a gigantic shit.
  12. You can have a cashier's check overnighted to your title company for $20, at least if you have Capital One, not sure about other banks. Seems like a no-brainer. No need to go into the bank to even get one made out, entire process is online.
  13. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Ideal-Insulation-Displacement-Wire-Connectors-25-Pack-85-925/100192058 Well, that's a 3 wire fitting but they likely carry 4 wire fittings
  14. Speaking of which, going to try Nomadic today. I wish Batch was open as I'll be out that way too, but looks like they're Saturday Sunday only

    2020 Rain Thread

    So is it "later today" already? Because it's pouring in south austin. So much for my lunchtime run...
  17. uh, yeah...if a dude gets brought in to a strapped ER in cardiac arrest and can't be revived, do you really think it makes sense for an already stretched staff reusing PPE to further risk infection to swab a dead guy? they're already in the next room trying to save the next guy.
  18. DO NOT USE SOAP! It actually gets in any exposed pores of the cast iron and interferes with the oil filling those pores in the seasoning process. The recommendations of oven cleaner or electrolysis are what you want.

    Bourbon

    https://www.fiercewhiskers.com/ Anyone know anything about this? Says Fall 2020 for the rye and 2022 for the bourbon. 4 years old...yeash.
  20. I don't know that I'd jump in on CAT, they seem to have a pessimistic attitude so far.
  21. Pinthouse reopens today for curbside with a reduced food menu. Beer menu looks rather complete though.
  22. Seriously? From the youtube description: "Go behind the scenes with an experienced expert, virologist who worked under Anthony Fauci,director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984. She was jailed and now tells all. Video Curtsy of Vaccine Wars. For your eyes and ears." If that doesn't fucking reek of psuedoscientific anti-vaccine bullshit for "woke" people I don't know what the fuck does.
