  1. This debate has me getting thirsty for a beer.  🍻

    And my avatar lets you know where my opinion falls.

     

    edit: my wife got me this hippie beer to go with my car.

    That early 70's red TA is fucking gorgeous.  '68 Z probably pretty rare I would guess.  68 SS/RS light blue looked great as well.  You can see where my alliance lies.

    I think the color kind of makes it stealth but the 69 Olds 442 with W-32 package was sweet.

  3. New to the thread but when I looked up where this was it looks like it was in the same neighborhood or street as the childcare home where the Greg Kelly case originated.  Is there any connection with the childcare home here?

     

    Edit:  I thought this is where the police were looking for Kelley back in the day.  The address of the Day Care may have been in a different neighborhood.

    I can't see the image if that's what it is.

    512 strokers are very popular and about as big as you can go on a stock block w/o crazy-expensive machine work.

    There is a video attached.   I think you need to click something to open the video.

    Of everything pictured that Sig piston 556-variant will be the most valuable. If it’s a complete sig piston ar that isn’t the 516, he could probably get $1500

    The stag ar15 next $900+

    The beretta storm would probably be about $450-600 depending on condition and the likes.

    Those are today’s market prices... meaning last year it’s probably be 25-50% less valuable at times.

    That PX4 is a Sub-Compact.  They run a little less than the Compact or Full size

    I think this shower talk is all just 3D chess moves in order to get back to Trump's crusade against low pressure shower heads.  They is so smart.

    The shower pressure obsession makes more sense now that Cohen's book explains the Golden Shower stuff.

    SSS here but i don't know anyone who has switched from Google to Alexa after using both. This includes people my parents age and wife.

    Google just works *so* much better re: understanding what I want and is much more conversational with the keywords to do things and the simple changes like when an timer/alarm is going off you can just say "stop" in the general direction instead of "alexa, stop timer" or whatever it requires these days.

     

    I don't want to switch, but I want a system I can tell to arm the house or stream the camera to the TV and it works.

    I have one Google Home, a couple of Chromecasts to start.  I have one Honeywell smart thermostat too.  Not much o start but I don't want to go down an incompatibility road if I can avoid it.

     

     

  8. I want to do a self monitored security system.  I did a lot of research on Ring and learned they have an add-on for premised wired houses that sounds great but Automation requires Alexa and I have Google.

    I looked into Nest but does not seem as complete as Ring.

    Any other options?  Maybe I need to bite the bullet and switch to Alexa?

    Alls I know is that when trump finally croaks I get to start the celebration thread. 

    I'm not popping champagne unless it happens while he's in jail.

    In the same cell that Jeffrey Epstein was in.

    At this point, it is way more important he lives long enough to get crushed in the election.  He dies now, and a lot of people won't show up to vote against him (and his enablers) and his supporters will see him as a martyr.  After 11/3/2020, I hope he drowns in his own pink froth, knowing that a majority of Americans have rejected him.  

     

    With his personality disorder he will be put on suicide watch once reality of losing sets in.  The fury of the denial/anger phase will be epic though.
