    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    My understanding is that the tax bill cannot be used to make changes to an entitlement program such as Social Security. It would require its own separate legislation. It seems like they tried to come up with something that would do the equivalent without having to present other legislation...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    I guess the biggest problem that I have with this is that anyone gives a flying fuck what some dumb-shit actor has to say. The left seems to idolize these idiots...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    She's got one hell of an ego... Thinking she is "somebody" and that she's smarter and better than everyone else. Frankly, I just wish they'd all go away. We have a revolution almost 250 years ago to get rid of this royalty bullshit, yet for some reason a lot of Americans seem to care. Fuck it...

    Robbery suspect, posing as Marshall, is shot by Houston liquor store owner and his wife

    Heart-warming story, but would have been better if the suspect was dead, along with the accomplice.

    Before you replace that old dishwasher

    I have a Bosch (maybe 15 years old), and periodically have to clean the filter. Here's a video (not mine) showing how to clean it.

    Nest Thermostat with Home Assistant?

    Quoting myself... I must be getting old. But I digress. An update... Since I had nothing better to do this morning, I tried the instructions again, comparing those from Hubitat as well as Home Assistant. Went into the g*gle environment, wiped out all the old stuff I had, and started anew...

    Older building with COAX runs

    Are these MoCA devices? There is a standard for networking over coax... If interested, see here: MoCA Alliance

    Nest Thermostat with Home Assistant?

    My two cents... I run Hubitat as my "main" hub, but also have an AppleTV 4k that runs HomeKit, and I have picked up Home Assistant. I also have two Nest thermostats. I have tried and tried, following the "Nest for Dummies" tutorials, but I cannot get my thermostats to work reliably inside...

    Healthcare

    There is some reasoning to hospital billing. A lot of hospitals use these insane charges to write off "charity" to zero out their bottom lines. To go completely off-topic, Social Security is a Ponzi scheme that relies on an ever-increasing number of people paying in, and that's not happening...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    He's a liberal, but a "classic" liberal. The "progressives" have co-opted the left wing and brought them so far to the left that they are positively ridiculous these days. Due to this shifting of the goalposts, he's actually closer to conservatives now than he is to the Democrat party. I LOL...

    Ummm.... Seems that those prices are reversed. Sure, they went up a bit during the Easter time period due to demand, but they are a lot plentiful and much cheaper now than they were last year.

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    That's not 100% true. They have been seeking it for that long, and Israel has done their part to prevent it from happening, from infecting their computers with a virus, to blowing their facilities to hell. Of course, it didn't help that that idiot Obama decided that they needed to enrich...

    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    "Normal" Americans are apparently idiots, then, and need to become more informed on world events. What if the US was surrounded by hostile countries whose naked ambition was to create a nuclear weapon and use it to wipe us off the face of the earth? Perspective is everything, and Israel should...

    From what I've heard, none of these apple devices can be activated because they will be listed as "stolen".

    Would a Properly Wired House for Security Cameras Increase its Value?

    Looks like a few places sell it (not sure about the gel, though), but the cost is over $8/ft. Holy cripes!!!

    …and the increase in prices at that time could likely be to increased demand for everyone buying eggs for Easter…

    Get a dashcam. Period!

    I'm not sure how it works where you are, but in many states I've lived in, I paid "under- and un-insured driver coverage" that was designed to cover this exact case (or in the case that someone has the bare minimum coverage and doesn't cover all the damage), and it's not considered a chargeable...

    New vehicles are crap and private equity groups are the reason

    And let's not forget, VW was NOT the only one who was playing to the test (but the only one who got ass-raped in the headlines)... Pretty much every manufacturer was doing it.

    What is everyone's stance on RealID?

    It's certainly not a cash-grab, as it didn't cost me any more to get my license with the Real ID, but it is rather stupid that I already had to provide the same exact forms of ID in order to get my CDL, and then I had to do it again to get the star on my license. Government incompetence at its...

    Who here uses a Mac (all Apple devices in general), and why? Seriously...

    I use an iPhone and iPad. I trust Apple far more than those spying cocksuckers at G**gle.
