      What is Crunchyroll?

      Netflix of the subtitled Japanese TV world. It started with Anime, but they are bringing more dramas on board. Makes it much better to watch TV shows actually WITH my wife.

      The slingbox is in Japan so you can stream Japanese TV back to the states?

      Yes. We have a HD receiver with built in DVR setup and my in-laws house. We just catch over the air channels.

      A friend sent me this article about Netflix "tricks"... one of which is to fool the service into thinking you are located in a different country... I know what I'll be testing this weekend...

      Going to a Lady Antebellum concert tonight... not a big fan of country but the tickets and party that go along with it are free and my wife loves it.

      My condolences... Nash-pop gives me hives. I hope that's a heck of a pregame party.

      Anxiously awaiting 2pm, so I can go home! I ordered 35lbs of fresh, green chiles from Hatch, New Mexico... they will arrive today, so I and my chef neighbor will be roasting, peeling, and seeding all those pods. Drinking will also be involved, as well as grilling some kind of dinner.

      (spelling side note - Opera shows "chiles" as a misspelling...)

      We have 6x UBNT cameras (indoors) and their NVR, as well as a Tough Switch for PoE. All have worked flawlessly, highly recommended.

      Eating breakfast burritos with habaΓ±ero sauce.

      Interesting choice. What is in a breakfast burrito?
      A side from the delicious sounding sauce...

      Eggs and veggie sausage and cheese.

      Soysage is the devil.

      You should eat coffee. Drinking coffee is so ordinary.

      Taiwan: Boy Trips and Tears Hole in $1.5 Million Paolo Porpora Painting

      Video footage shows the 12-year-old boy holding a drink and falling into the 350-year-old β€œFlowers” painting, leaving a hole the size of a fist, exhibition organizers said.

      Exactly why children shouldn't be allowed near fine art... no respect for history and culture.

      Is this considered HaaS (hookers as a service) or PaaS (prostitutes as a service)?

      Seriously, how socially backward do you have to be for something like this to motivate you? Those girls have no interest in you or what you do, why does them feigning interest make you work harder???

      My person opinion on privacy is starting to shift with all the hacks and data dumps recently. I think those at the top have way more to lose that those of us at the bottom. I'm willing to give up some minor embarrassments in return for some people going to jail who deserve it.

      Exactly. No reason to even be embarrassed unless you're actually cheating (or trying to cheat) on your SO.

      It's like how I used to be with movies in the Walmart bargain bin. I'd buy anything no matter how awful it was.

      Gold is often found in those movie bargain bins, especially if you love the 'D' cinema as I do...

    • RE: What Do IT Pros Drive?

      98 Explorer, 220k miles (gets 40 rods to the hogshead, and that's the way I likes it!).

      Really need something more efficient now that my commute is 45 min+ each way, but I'm keeping the truck so I can get a boat.

      Dear Best Buy, you've outdone yourself.

      πŸ† 🎊 πŸ† 🎊 πŸ† 🎊 πŸ† 🎊 πŸ† 🎊 πŸ† 🎊

      After more research and looking the exact model up by code in other suppliers, it turns out that the laptop Best Buy sold me is imaginary. It's made up. The model I ordered actually IS 24GB of RAM, both on Amazon and Asus.com, and they don't sell a 256GB PCIe SSD, 4720HQ, 980M laptop w/ 32GB of RAM, they're all 24.

      So Best Buy is just listing the lapto they are selling w/ 8GB more RAM than it actually has anywhere on Earth in the real world. I've been duped by the ineptitude of their web developers yet again.

      Fool me once...

      😩

      The worst part is the 2 accessible slots are taken, so in the inaccessible slots there's just one empty, so I can't even upgrade to 32 myself.

      F, ML my friends. F. M. L. πŸ™Š

      Crazy AJ sells the 32GB model.... but shipping from Panama can be steep.

      There's a 32GB model w/ a 512GB PCIe SSD, but it's $3000. It's not the one I'm talking about.

      (there's not an actual Crazy AJ...)

      Parts of California's Central Valley are sinking faster than ever before.

      that will cause a problem.

      See also: Florida. When you pump out all the groundwater, there is nothing left to hold up the surface. That's how you get sinkholes.

      It is a toss up between them marketing formula as better than breast milk in underdeveloped countries....

      That was 40 years ago!!

      Fair, but the fight to change clean water from a need to a right, claiming "Bottled water is the most environmentally responsible consumer product in the world.", and the pumping out and shipping off of public water supplies is still happening today. So I would argue not much has changed. I'm just saying it is worse than under educated employees selling me a consumer electronics.

      But that has nothing to do with the customers' experience, which was the point of the OP. You're talking about a company that is evil, not one that is poorly run. Lots of companies are evil (at least they were when I stopped paying attention over a decade ago..)

      1000% agreed. I refrained from burning it down, so they should thank me. Lecherous villains, the lot of them. A pox on HH Gregg.
