  1. They are definitely a huge pain to work on engine wise (there’s no room in there, plus the rats nest of 1990s emissions and vacuum lines), but as said above I’d rather find one that doesn’t need bodywork. Pics?!?

  2. It’s tedious because you have to build/upgrade ships to unlock skills to use better modules.

    You can just swap with the cheapest stuff to get it done, but I couldn’t help myself. Still waiting to even get to Class B stuff.

  3. Mine had been fine but yesterday had an instance of draining battery very fast and getting pretty warm. I closed all apps and hard reset and whatever it was stopped.

    Most people seemed to be having the issue early on, so hopefully this was just a software or app bug. There’s a zillion app updates right now so hopefully it was just an old version not playing nice (a similar thing happened on my 13PM last month, too).

  4. I'd guess around $5k or so, if that gets me significantly upgraded 

    The new MOFI Sourcepoint 8/10 are reviewing incredibly well but are pricey at $3/4k.

    KEF R3 or LS50 are cheaper, well-liked, and have a smaller footprint, but you may want a subwoofer with them.

    Turntable wise I’d just get a Technics SL1200GR (the GR2 was also just announced), or an SL-1500C (wish they came with a better cart though, I’d recommend a Nagaoka MP-150 or above).

    Amplifier wise I’m not really up to speed on newer stuff, but there’s plenty of integrated amps out there. Maybe a Peachtree or Schiit.

  5. Yeah, nobody was watching the original Top Gun for the acting.  Michael Ironside probably delivered the best performance in the original film, which is pretty sad.  He went right back to being the bad guy in every other movie after that, so it was a real stretch to play a good guy for once.  Val Kilmer eventually became a decent actor after 'Top Gun', but he was 1-dimensional at best.  
    This one had a still relatively unknown cast, but most delivered well in their roles.  Really cool that Glen Powell is making the effort to appear in person to receive this award on Friday on campus:  https://www.texasexes.org/about-us/awards/outstanding-young-texas-ex-award  Guessing he sticks around for the game to be recognized on the field.  Most of the time they give "famous" people a OYTEX or DAA orange jacket, they send in a video message and that's it.  Thankfully, Owen Wilson will never had that conundrum, right Brisket    
    Anyway, between Glen Powell and Depeche Mode on Friday night on campus, I'm considering possibly swinging both ways for the night.

    Goddamn I’m an underachiever. 2 of these people were high school classmates of mine (Glen and Amy).

  6. I’m in a low data area but someone post up hammy’s daft punk helmet.

    The photoshoot ones reflected lights and colors off of it so it was hard to see what color it actually was, but it appears to be chromey in this other photo I found.

  7.  
    Andar Aspen case here.  9 colors, nice leather, no large stamp or logo burned in.  Great smell.  Picked up my first one 2 years ago for my 13 Pro Max, and liked it so much I picked up a second color and one of their magsafe wallets.
    Ordered my 15 Pro Max, and opened up a new tab and ordered 2 new cases at the same time.  They should arrive this week.
    Highly recommended.
     
     

    Well hey, lucky for me I already ordered one of these this past weekend. Looks like I made a good choice.
  8. Was the HAAS just out for a Sunday drive at the corner. Seems like it just coasted to the corner instead of... you know... racing.

    Tbf he probably was. There was a lot of lift and coast and brake management this weekend.
