[With it being spooky season, I thought I'd recommend one of my favorite horror movies] The Descent (2005) [Horror, Mystery Thriller]
  • Man…i remember, and will never forget, going to see this in the theaters. Was not ready for what this brought!

    I saw it again later on dvd with the alternate ending…i think the alt ending makes it all even worse…obviously that’s the point, if you’ve seen it, but still….😩

    This movie totally messed me up for anything involving caves. Imagine my anxiety reading about that Nuttypuck Cave deal (i forget the actual name, but IYKYK…)

  • How many pieces of toilet paper do you use to wipe after peeing?
  • They exist. I think primarily a Japan thing (no surprise…). I havent seen one in person, but seen them for sale or some weird bidet article about all the options you can get. Hot/cold water, his/her’s, blow dry, lights, music, multiple user pre-sets, etc. usually it’s sold as the entire toilet, not an “add-on” option.

  • My eyes and attention are for me to waste, they are not for ads.
  • Yup, i havent been able to mute in a long time. Tried all the buttons, multiple buttons at once, etc. The worst ones are the ones blasting whatever that stupid “fuel pump show” is that talks about what’s going on in the pop world with “famous” people ive never even heard of, or stupid “life hacks” that arent…

  • My eyes and attention are for me to waste, they are not for ads.
  • Shouldnt suprise you but…US. (Possibly other countries) Years ago they started adding video screens to display certain things, so as natural progression goes….there’s a screen so there will be ads. Loud-as-shit video ads that play as soon as you start pumping. And when no one is at the pumps they cycle silent ad slideshows.

  • hooooly shit! has anyone else played journey?
  • Nope. White are real people, too. You respawn white back at the beginning (i think you have the option to, so you could stay red as well) if you managed to find all the glyphs. Ive been the White Traveler lots of times.

  • The Superiority of American Logistics (Artist: Patso Catso)
  • Not really, considering they (food courts) are on almost every military installation across the globe…in a massive shopping mall, as an actual indoor restaurant that families, civilians with base access, and such eat at daily. You know, like families and people who actually live here? Nothing “behind the lines” like this picture is depicting. There are other, actual trucks, that exist that much more fit…exactly what this picture is showing.

  • Funky little concept for a Tiny Tram!
  • There’s also one about this size in Hawai’i, on Oahu. The main shopping mall there is two separate buildings and you can use this little automated tram to go back and forth between the two, for free. If i remember right, the buildings were in a way that you couldnt really walk from one to the other, so either get in your car for like a 2min drive, or take this tram.

  • Paella de marisco
  • Why does no one peel their shrimp before putting them in dishes to cook? They are so much easier to peel raw and then you arent trying to scoop a shrimp out, messily peel it while covered in sauce or whatever, then you put it back in and then try to eat…Like, the legs are still on here…so you’re likely gonna have random shrimp legs in some bites… Even if the shrimp you got are pre-cooked, just peeling them during prep makes enjoying the final product waaaay better.

  • A new-ish, well-maintained vehicle with new tires, fresh oil change etc, if it's left dormant & undriven untouched in a residential driveway for 1 year, will it be driveable after 1 yr?
  • Ha, as i was typing that i considered the possibility your car might be a diesel, but decided otherwise….go figure! But ya, as the others have said, there is also diesel stabilizers, but diesel does have a longer life span. Putting a stabilizer in wont hurt anything, so personally, id put it in anyways just to be safe….

  • A new-ish, well-maintained vehicle with new tires, fresh oil change etc, if it's left dormant & undriven untouched in a residential driveway for 1 year, will it be driveable after 1 yr?
  • Yeah, for the most part. The other commenter is right about that battery, tho. Disconnecting the battery will help, but depending on the type and age of the battery (and temperatures in the storage area) the battery might still not last. Trickle charger might be ideal here, even just a little solar panel for it.

    Gas in the tank is another thing. There might be conflicting opinions on how best to handle this, but- I would run the tank as empty as practical, then fill it up completely (so you have all fresh gas) and add a stabilizer. Most stabilizers will keep the gas good for 1-2 years. Best to make sure its an Ethanol stabilizer (like Sta-Bil 360), unless you put pure gas in. Then make sure to drive it a little so the stabilized gas gets into the whole fuel system.

    Otherwise, give it a good wash and then a cover for it if you can if it’ll be outside in the elements. Depending on the storage environment, things could still start growing on it, inside and out.

  • This is a major Life Pro Tip
  • Same here, lived in a few different states and usually never got out of the first “tier” pricing bracket (where this billing method was used), so my water bills were pretty much to the penny the same every month.

  • This is a major Life Pro Tip
  • Im gonna be the AkShUalLy guy here and say this isnt always the case…. There are shower controls that turn on immediately to full pressure and then adjust for temp as you keep turning, no way to actually control the water pressure without just having fully cold water. These have been around forever…

    I installed a newer Delta one in my house a few years ago (2021 or so). They now have a feature where the water temperature is always whatever you set it- no fluctuations of scalding water when someone flushes a toilet or random freezes if someone turns on hot water elsewhere in the house. Or even 2 showers/baths fighting for hot water at the same time. So it’s like an auto-adjusting thing that happens inside that requires max input pressure to work right. Of course, i always want max water pressure, so this was a win-win for me!

    To note- this wasnt a crazy expensive, high-end model…it was basically what most of the single knob/lever shower controls are now.

  • Rear tie rods for Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero?
  • Glad i could help!

    I didnt even consider angle mounted control arms! Sorry about some semi-wrong info then….!

    Your Imgr link isnt working for the picture, but i have seen the style you’re referring to…i just didnt think about them while typing out my reply! So that all makes sense then.

    Let me/us know what you get figured out! Always fun to learn new stuff!

  • Rear tie rods for Mitsubishi Pajero/Montero?
  • Toe out is the front of the tire being too far out…i think you mean Camber, where the top/bottom is too far out/in. Unless you have rear wheel steering, there’s no way a lift or drop would change the toe of rear wheels. Tie rods are used on the steering system, coming from the rack and pinion. Again, unless you have rear wheel steering, these dont exist on the rear wheels.

    You’re looking for control arms.

    Likely with a lift installed you got really positive camber (bottom is too far in). You either need longer lower arms or shorter tops, this varies depending on vehicles. However…these parts should have come with your lift kit? Unless it wasnt a kit and you assembled the kit yourself with various other parts. A complete kit would have had the parts to correct any geometry changes associated with the lift. Also, it looks like your setup uses 3 control arms on each side…2 lateral (top & bottom) and one coming in from the rear, so you might have a few parts that need extending to do this job correctly.

    If you have this issue on the rear, how was it solved for the front? You said front tie rods were adjustable enough, but since you arent using the correct part terms it’s hard to know exactly what you’re referring to.

    You’ll have to find someone that makes aftermarket control arms for your specific vehicle, there wont be any factory sized parts to help with a non-stock situation. Or get ahold of whoever made your lift kit (if it was a kit) and see what they recommend.

    Best to go to a source (forum, community, etc) specific to your vehicle to see what kits, parts, vendors and sources people are using for lifts.

    My experience with lifting not-so-common vehicles always made finding parts/kits like this difficult. Sometimes i even had to make the part myself. Usually, if anyone makes the part it’s not a huge supplier, just a few guys in a shop somewhere. Or someone with more resources found an OEM part from a completely different vehicle that worked.

  • [OC] Universal Studios Florida at night
  • There’s obviously some fancy science term for that, but we had something “less smart” we used to call it as kids. There was some “old ways” thing we were taught that depending on how many stars were caught in that halo was how many days until the next rain…. Maybe someone else will shed some better info, but your comment reminded me of that!

  • A 50 Cal Revolver - RSh-12 (2000)
  • A true “hand cannon”, to make a Destiny reference. I never knew low-bore handguns could/would be a thing and always thought that was sci-fi magic in video game guns that didnt have to make sense. Destiny had a lot of low-bore hand guns…guess the devs werent that crazy!
