  1. So, I finally finished my treatment 3 weeks ago. I was good on my midway scan but I’ll get another in 3 weeks to make sure. Chemo totally fucked my lower legs and hands. Weirdly, I have mostly motor issues and not many sensory ones. Doing PT weekly but it’ll probably be a slow recovery. I walk with a cane sometimes, and it makes me feel old af. But, here’s to hopefully getting back to normal.
  2. 4-0, bitches! Lotta rusty QB play out there.
  3. https://x.com/tgruener/status/1699690155022372961?s=46&t=wVb9bWdhSgnoSEj1JSHbpQ
  4. Tbf he probably was. There was a lot of lift and coast and brake management this weekend.
  5. Yes, they’re old Kodachrome slides from the 50s/60s. I like to scan old slides (mostly Kodachrome) sometimes.
  6. I had one of those no wood filler SG specials. It was silver. I guess they’re from 2001-2003 or so. Was just like this one:
  7. Sometimes it gets it wrong at first but it will be fixed later on.
  8. YTTV “DVR” is great. I’ve been a user for several years now.
  9. From Reddit: From the reviews, it seems that the score from any given reviewer is contingent entirely on how willing the reviewer was willing to forgive the slow start. Reviewers that were frustrated by the slow start gave it scores in the 7-8 range. Reviewers that didn't mind the slow start gave it scores in the 9-10 range. It apparently takes like 10-12 hours to “get going”.
  10. I did take JJ and ended up happy with my team overall. I’m also doing possibly 4 leagues (one pending). I, too, am a glutton for punishment.
  11. First draft tonight. I hate picking first, goddamnit.
  12. I got those vibes in the shipyard, too.
  13. Oh by the way, which one’s Pink?
  14. Yeah, he’s a pretty big waste of space.
  15. Well, because he wants close racing. The full quote, which the tweet editorialized, is: “If we continue like this, maybe Ferrari will dominate in the next few years, or maybe McLaren will, or maybe Mercedes will get back in front, but I think this is not the best thing for the fans. We shouldn't have the chance to dominate for a large number of years, the battle for the top positions should be closer. Unfortunately, however, Red Bull could seriously dominate even in the next three seasons ".
  16. Damnit, ran out of time to edit.

  17. He is literally known for saying that, yes. https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/hamilton-wants-mercedes-rivals-to-catch-up/450805/ https://www.autoweek.com/racing/formula-1/a1862721/lewis-hamilton-wants-more-competition-2015-f1-title-fight/ https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.pace-setter-hamilton-wants-closer-field-in-2018.3QeNNoazIQGe20Mw2m0K2A.html https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.hamilton-wants-harder-championship-fight-from-leclerc-and-verstappen.4W1r348nkSd5kdqqj2wkN.html https://www.skysports.com/f1/news/24181/11938586/f1-2020-lewis-hamilton-feels-at-his-best-and-wants-closer-title-battle
  18. Yeah, Gulf States Toyota adds all sorts of shit. Those “TSS” Tacomas and Tundras are Gulf States’ own thing, not an actual Toyota package.
  19. The First Edition will be the crazy marked up one for the first model year. Limited to like 500 or something? LCs traditionally don’t have many options, which seems to be carrying over to this generation with all the features that are standard, which is nice. There isn’t a Pro trim, just a base (1958), higher spec (Land Cruiser), and First Edition.
  20. I get it, though I’m not a Scotty fan. I just feel differently, and none of the whole turbo/hybrid stuff would preclude me from purchasing one. The one thing I do wonder is what kinda turbo tech they will use, and who will make it. I assume probably a twin-scroll, likely not VGT or anything. Wastegate design is important, because that is what causes a lot of turbo replacements of the cheap, shitty turbos on small GM and Ford engines. It’s silly because it’s just slop that develops in the linkage. Looks like the 1VD-FTV diesel V8 in the Aussie cruisers uses an IHI. I read something (not verified) that they will utilize the Hino plant to build them. That is fantastic news. That plant knows how build trucks, and my FJ was built there.
  21. They’re all on the TNGA-F platform anyway, so, yes. Turbo and hybrid doesn’t inherently limit their reliability at all (I will concede having to replace the battery eventually, but it’s kind of a wear item anyway, just as a timing belt would be). People keep clamoring that turbos aren’t reliable, but Toyota has been using them in Land Cruisers since the 80s.
