Its a damned shame nobody's even heard of them. Even though the lead singer was a certifiable dickhead, he had a set of pipes, and add Jake E Lee and it was straight fire if you like blues rock. I miss music like this....

re: IPTV hardware

I use a Formuler Pro Max with tivimate, and I have an ONN box also with tivimate. If one isnt going to use mytv on the Fourmuler, get the ONN. Yes the Formuler is faster and slicker, but for me the difference is slight. Formuler also promised easy recording with an external drive, and that doesn...

[quote]You inherited money because he died 9 years into retirement. Your whole premise is off. What would’ve happened if he lived to 80? [/quote] My Mom lived until she was 84. I suspect had he lived as long as she did, the results would have been the same. They didnt do much when he was alive, ...
I watched my Dad retire at 60 with 125k in the bank, and by the time he and my Mom passed 20 years later my sister and I got 100 of it. House paid for, one car paid for, he chewed tobacco , drank his Miller, and fished every day until he died at 69. A simple life doesn't take much money. He had his ...

re: Linux advice

Posted by stogie5150 on 1/20/24 at 12:56 pm
I recently changed my desktop from Win 11 to Mint. I generally like it, but there are things that absolutely infuriate me, but with enough searching I have worked around them. Command line is one of them. I am old enough to have used DOS to load windows. Linux reminds me of this a LOT. We moved on...
I was a family caregiver for nigh on 20 years. Dad, Mom, then Uncle. Three time Hospice experience. As others have said, keep the pain med and the Ativan going. Let your loved one know its okay to let go. One of my Mom's biggest fears was leaving her only son by himself. Don't worry about it Mom, Bi...
My parents moved here in 1957. I am glad they aren't here to see what it has become. A solid, family-centered, community-oriented, blue collar town has been overrun with rednecks from the north and crackheads from the south. And us old hands are in the middle. Get off my lawn. :pimp:...
Just be aware shite can go pear shaped. Just did all four corners of my 2013 F-150 and three of the four calipers stuck when I pushed the pistons in and it caused the new pads to drag. (not retract the new pads away from the rotor,when you let off the brake pedal) So a 400.00 job ( parts only, new p...

Another vote for Gravely ZTHD. Got mine in 2018, after breaking and fixing box store mowers most of my 52 years, its a pleasure to have a machine that just...works. I have an acre as well and I can do it in 30 minutes if I dont care about my back. I do, so it takes me 45. :lol: Paid 5200.00 in 2...
I used a snorkel kit from these guys for my Hobo Freight Gennie Back in 2017 for emergency Natural Gas use. Its been flawless. It still allows propane, NG, or gasoline with no changes. I have used it at least once a year since then and had zero issues with it. They have kits for a lot of models. ...
Don't buy Zozi. Their cameras are mated to the system you buy and once they stop making the cameras, when one craps out, and it will, you cant buy another to replace it. I have an 8 camera Zozi IP system, and it works pretty well, but a camera has died and Zozi confirms, no replacement cameras are a...
