Yes, the language is extremely broad and there is stuff that explicitly mentions converting motor vehicles into competition vehicles; however, the appropriate response isn't unfurling your Gadsden flag and whining about tyranny on Facebook or other social media. The appropriate response is calling up your representative and asking for clarification, you know, engaging with your government.

The CRT weighed in at 200 POUNDS and needed a stand made of solid Oak just to hold it up, I have tweaked my back more than once trying to move it (with help). The new TV is a Vizio E60-C3 I got on sale at Walmart for $698, it's a lot of TV for the price, I paid over $800 for the CRT back in '05 or so.

Recccommmend me a good Android smartphone that I can use without a contract (Cricket, Metro) and won't poo poo the bed after a year. Features are nice but reliability is more important to me. Been looking at reviews and it seems like there's nothing available that doesn't have a good amount of bad reviews.

Can you use a nexus phone on either of those carriers? Through personal experience and watching my friends go through various android phones, get a nexus or don't bother. With all of the vulnerabilities found in android these days, at least you'll get a chance at getting them patched in a reasonable amount of time too.

Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 are still available new. 5 is still a viable, nice phone. I have a 6 and I think it kicks rear end. You can pick one up for about $250, with a 2560x1440 screen and plenty of processing power. I have nothing bad to say about it and it's in many ways better than the current version (wireless charging itself outweighs the benefits of the new one).

With all of the vulnerabilities found in android these days, at least you'll get a chance at getting them patched in a reasonable amount of time too. Metro won't activate a Nexus phone without jumping through a lot of hoops; for some reason, half of their CSRs told me my phone was stolen when I tried to move to Metro. They have to manually add the IMEI to their system, and finding someone who will deviate from the script can be a pain. leica posted:Recccommmend me a good Android smartphone that I can use without a contract (Cricket, Metro) and won't poo poo the bed after a year.

Moto X (2014 version is affordable and a lot of phone - brand new it's only $300 for the 16GB version), Nexus series. I'd recommend Cricket over Metro simply because Metro's CSRs don't know a phone from a gloryhole.

NitroSpazzz posted:In the ongoing but not super serious truck search I've come across a couple Jeep Comanche's and I've always wanted one. I know we have a few Jeep Comanche owners that frequent this thread so anything I should be on the lookout for with these other than the obvious rust? I'd be looking for one with the 4.0L I6 most likely because owning a Jeep without that is pointless and the long wheel base would be kind of nice to have but isn't a major requirement. I'd consider the I4 engine as well I guess. Also I can't find the bed height for a stock Comanche anywhere, I'm guessing it's going to be around 36" being 4x4 but I'm curious. The 4 in my '95 Cherokee was tolerable at 130 HP. The one in the Comanche is 110 or so, IIRC. You get another 50-50 HP out of the 6, and not a lot of change in fuel mileage. That said, both the 4 and 6 are tractor motors and live forever. Mine was a 5-speed manual - I doubt that the 4-banger is much fun with an automatic. I'd be OK with the auto behind a 4.0, though.

$194 in back tolls paid, plus put $40 on my toll tag.  That's after they knocked the tolls down from about $320 (tolltag rate vs pay by mail rate). That loving stings, but at least it's paid. Now I have to go through the statements and figure out which tolls were for work so I can write them off. ilkhan posted:Moto G (or E, for a REAL budget phone) plus t-mo pre-paid or att pre-paid. Cricket = AT&T Prepaid with lower rates (and an 8Mbit speed cap) - they're fully owned by AT&T. Metro is also fully owned by T-Mobile, but T-Mobile prepaid is much, much easier to deal with (at the expense of slightly higher rates). Metro's data is also deprioritized over T-Mobile branded customers - doesn't mean much if you're in an area with lots of bandwidth, but if you're in a congested area your speeds go to barely usable in a hurry. Metro also ties the SIM to the phone, so you can't just swap your SIM to another phone without calling them (and convincing them that no, your phone is not stolen simply because the IMEI isn't in their database). randomidiot fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Feb 9, 2016 |

I feel like no matter how good I get at anything in my life, it won't even come close to how this dude runs a wood lathe. It's long, so you'll have to poke around, but drat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0iEd0kD0S4

Is it worth the PITA? How about if it was previously a US car? My understanding is that if it was a car originally sold in the US, then imported to canada, you can bring it back to the US without much issue. Just fill out paperwork at the border and pay any taxes. If it was originally sold in Canada, it is possible to import it but you need to provide a lot of paperwork proving that the car meets all of the US standards. Even if the car is identical to the US model, I believe that you still need paperwork, including some that needs to come from the cars manufacturer, in order to bring it into the US. A buddy of mine was looking at importing a URs6 from Canada, but ended up skipping it since it would have been such a pain in the rear end.

I have only looked into driving it across the border myself, since I live in Seattle and only look at cars in the Vancouver BC area. In theory you could ship the car, but I believe you would have to have all of the correct paper work pre-filled out and in order to give to the truck driver. Then if they find any issues, chances are your new car is going to be left at the border crossing. I would suggest flying to where the car is and driving it home, partially to make sure the car makes it over the border, but mostly cause that is always a fun adventure.

This thread had reddit chat earlier, I think. The worst part right now is the loving Sanders echo chamber. I didn't care about him before, but now I loving hate him and his fanbase. I'm sure the venn diagram of Sanders fanbois and Elon Musk knob-gobblers overlaps almost completely. I guess since the death of Steve Jobs these loving people need some celebrity idolize. Also, hearing about Sanders: I feel like I've heard less grandiose promises 8 and 4 years ago that, like these, have gone unfulfilled.

Of course one could use a PoE injector per UAP, either close to the hub or close to the UAPs or a mix. Am I correct in understanding that the Unifi AC LITEs run weird nonstandard 24V PoE? How long can the cable runs be? What PoE switch should I get? I'm not looking to support a whole bunch of APs, three at the most, I'd say.
