Yeah, but my wife needs to have all of her channels like TLC and HGTV and A&E and I like to have CBC for the Wings games that get blacked out when they're at home. It's also nice to be able to find some channel that has Law & Order on at 1am no matter what day it is.

We have 70/30 up/down fiber for 43usd.

I had the best day ever today, i went on a way to hard bike ride where i blew up on the last hills (https://www.strava.com/activities/294164438) and then i picked the boys up from kindergarten, and since my wife is working late i invited my buddy who i had just rode with to bbq. hot dogs for the kids and pork chops and a small steak for each of us. I also shopped some groceries so i can make a nice late night meal when the wife comes home from work.

oh and in car news, tomorrow the tesla gets put on the 21" summer wheels. cant wait to try insane mode with proper tires

Go to settings > storage, press the menu button (capacitive button next to the physical home button at the bottom of the screen) and you should get a prompt for "USB computer connection" (or similar.) Press and it will give you a menu where you can check either "media device" or "camera device." It's possible to have neither checked, in which case nothing will happen when you connect to a PC.

Pretty sure the gauges and everything don't work. As nuts as the guy that built this thing is he isn't that nuts. He's holding it for me, I'll check it out Wednesday afternoon. I should be able to get it sent down on a work truck or with one of the guys I race with who does a lot of odd pickup/haul jobs. We'll see.

This guy made his work:

I like this one - he just user select bits and interior trims hung on a wood framework:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSwr9WPAa5k

Though his gauges don't work. He appears to have something connect to the AC controls (I'd totally have a blower hooked up just for a little cooling air...)

Here's an idea: this guy used an additional monitor in place of the gauges to show in-game gauges.

USB 3.0 is backwards-compatible with earlier versions. It just won't be as fast.

I think if you touch "About Phone" like 7 times or something it enables developer mode. That gives you more options and menus.

Currently Im at a moral crossroads.

After having a less than productive day at work and failing an ASE test. (motherfucker was nothing like the million practice tests my job has been supplying me with.) Im feeeling pretty low. And decided to go get some food for dinner on the way home.
Only having about 25 bucks on my card till friday plus the ten in my wallet, im being frugal and only grab some chicken thighs to cook. Cost about 6.40 something.
So I go to the self checkout thingies with chicken and scan it, have it register, and throw in the two 5's i had in my wallet. Next thing i know I get my two 5's spat back at me through where you get your change, plus the change i woulda got from my ten, along with a printed receipt that says paid. So im standing around looking obviously confused and dumb trying to see if anyone is around, no one is, I say gently caress it, grab my ten bucks back and my change and the chicken and leave without anyone so much as batting a glance.
I should at this point mention that I shop at this place nearly every day and have always been an honest and loyal customer thus far but i mean, if a teller gives you extra change back you feel bad for them thinking they will be short later on and get in trouble or whatever, but a machine? Im like gently caress it.

Thoughts?

Oh that's excellent. I might have to eventually move parts over to a E30 interior.

They finished up the VW earlier than expected so I have my car back now. New wheel bearings, hubs and speed sensors...no more horrible grinding sound while driving. I knew having poo poo done at the dealership was expensive but holy gently caress they change $110 and hour for a loving VW shop. I paid less than half that and 20% off parts since my brother works for the chain but drat, still an expensive fix. Oh well car should be good for a long time now. Just need to toss on new front rotors when I get back next week.

Now packing so I can wake up at 2:15am tomorrow morning. At least I can pass the hell out on the plane.

Conversely, the other day I had the change dispenser jam on one, and it showed the remaining change as 1 cent.

No coins had come out, it actually owed me 79c. Thankfully the self-check cashier was BSing with me at the time and saw that no change came out, but when the manager came over to open it, she looked at the 1 cent on the screen, and said "no, you only get 1 cent", and looked at me like I was a criminal when I calmly explained that zero coins had actually come out. Self check attendant confirmed that I hadn't received any coins, so the manager opened the machine and got my change.

And when she slammed it back shut, 79 cents came rolling out. Manager looked at the change rolling out, rolled her eyes, and walked off.
