Re: Dutch ovens, is there something special about La Creuset that justifies the price? I look at those versus the cheaper yet functional enamelware I already own and wonder if people are just paying for a brand name.

I own a used one and it's great. The made-in-china ones are supposedly poorer quality and less smoothly enameled and so on. I have no idea how much that actually matters. A le creuset will last forever, so check eBay. Owning one will spoil you.

Apparently you can have private sewer line going under the city street. The city is only on the hook for the city line.

I do have a YouTube video of the sewer scope that I linked to in my quote requests. I'd hoped that the plumbers would look at it to give me a quote instead of just telling me to pay for another scope to show them the same poo poo.


I don't give a single poo poo about this stuff. Reddit would hate me lol

This happened to me more or less. USAA homeowner insurance covered the resulting disaster - we basically told our contractor, "this is your loving fault, so you can get paid by insurance to fix it and do it this way, or we find someone else and figure it out ourselves."

Between a very naive initial home inspection before buying, and a very naive choice of contractor for renovations (this was a foreclosure), I have crossed a million things off my bucket list under the heading "starter home".

gently caress, I wasn't even actively working during the year it got dealt with, and I thought I was going to lose my mind at several points.

My schedule the past couple semesters has pretty much dictated that I'm running face-first into the evening rush when I can't get there til between 5 and 7, so it's two hours of pure clusterfuck. As much as I usually avoid living the meathead stereotype, if it's some gaggle of skinny retards slapfighting around a bench when they aren't busy on their phones then I'm going to go spook them off of it.

You just started doing working sets of squats? Cool, I'll ask to work in if you don't mind shifting a couple plates. Benching and actually doing some work? I don't care if you're just pushing 135, ditto the working in if you don't mind. Usually I'll end up giving out the kind of form/programming/etc coaching you have to pay $50+ an hour for when I'm between sets. But so help me God I'm not even remotely above sitting on a bench five feet away and cranking the resting bitch face if you're just going to gently caress around and waste everyone's time.

You sound like a real joy to be around

That hurts me in ways I'm emotionally ill-equipped to process.

I'm not even going to pretend to apologize for being irritated by a gaggle of idiots sitting on some of the most limited and popular equipment, fingering each others' asses and snapchatting 27 different versions of the same picture with that retarded dog filter, and taking 15 minutes between "sets" where every rep is a quarter squat or some strange bench-curl-row hybrid.


Less "YEAH BRAH YOU TOTALLY GOTTA LIFT WITH YOUR SPINE BRAH", more "Have you ever tried setting your back in an arch before benching? It'll actually help your chest and delts work harder, plus it's easier on your shoulders." I'm not going to bust my rear end trying to help someone if they're completely uninterested, but most actual serious lifters aren't (or shouldn't be) afraid to at least take the time and consider advice or information if it's presented in a non-douchey way.

I think you're missing the bigger picture here

Guys I went full Apple this weekend. Upgraded to an iPhone 7 Plus and got them Apple AirPods.


I hate to admit this: I'm seriously happy with the AirPods. They seamlessly transition from my phone to laptop and sound pretty good. Also the battery life is dope.

Airpods are great. I have them too.

Do AirPods have noticeable latency? I couldn't stand the Bluetooth headphones I tried since the sound would lag behind games and videos by up to a full second.

No, but they weirdly cut out for split seconds at a time when I'm crossing the street. They look a little silly. They're otherwise drat near perfect.

I just can't justify spending that much on some ear buds.

What makes them worth $159 that I shouldn't just spent a few more dollars for some wireless over ear headphones?

The iPhone is my only Apple product if that makes any difference.

Nothing objectively. If you want to pay more for the Apple "it just works" quality, they're great. But if it's purely about functionality in terms of bang for buck, there are definitely better buys. That said, the side benefits are quite nice.

I am currently watching guys from our sister company, who we fought alongside in Wardak, tear each other apart Lord Of The Flies-style on facebook in response to someone sharing a "Islam is a peaceful religion" protest pic. It's really bad. It's on facebook, but still. These dudes were losing limbs next to each other 8 years ago and now they're cutting off all contact and calling each other traitors.

I'm graduating soon and looking for a job. But hey, isn't everyone? Well, you guys may remember that thread I did a while back where I did readings of forum posts and poo poo. I've had a bit more vocal training since then, and apparently people notice. Whenever I play Overwatch (which is, to say, way too often), I'll inevitably get someone who asks me if I'm a certain Youtuber, or say that I have a "pretty" voice.

I figured that the time for talking is over, and I'm gonna put my voice to good use. Next week I'm gonna go to an actual VO studio and record a demo reel. Then I'm gonna shop it around with the hope of getting some gigs in the city. While I'm not sure if I've got the chops for actual acting parts, I could probably get some commercials or industrial narration jobs, which would be perfectly fine.

Anyhow, wish me luck :shobon:

I'm going to take your lunch money next time I see you

Also just record your Overwatch plays and use that as your demo reel

Finally getting this wifi mess figured out. Some questions on placement



I put it on the side couch table on the left




Seemed to be the best spot for reception. But, how much does wood affect the signal? There's a small storage area underneath the staircase which would be a perfect to just wall mount it and conceal everything. It's a central location to where the main devices will be used. The other side of the wall is the bathroom. It doesn't have to go through more than a couple walls at most

I'm mainly concerned for the mental health of whoever you let decorate
