Not really a car thread topic, but it is for me because I primarily use my air compressor for airing up my tires, but I just made probably my favorite tool purchase ever.  I got a California Air Tools, 4.6 gallon, aluminum tank, ultra quiet air compressor.  That thing is ridiculously quiet when...

Luckily for you, literally 0 flights per day out of DFW take off on time. I hate American Airlines and DFW, if you couldn't tell.

If you were invited to 2 parties, just tell each host that you are going to the other party then go to neither.

I have a Solidoodle 2 that has an 8" cubed build envelope.  It's pretty old, though, so the technology has advanced quite a bit in the 6ish years I've owned it.  If I used it more, I would probably be looking to get a new one.  My only contribution to this discussion is that I would not use any...

Wine/bourbon barrel stave candle holder?

I've watched several videos on that $100k challenge.  A pilot and YouTuber named Wolvie6020 has completed the challenge 3 different times, and the flat-earther challenger changed the rules each time the challenge was completed.  First Wolvie proved the route using digital charts on the iPad he...

I was in Las Vegas while Louisville was having an ice storm.  Good timing. The first 2 days I was in Vegas, it was mid-50's with 25 mph+ winds.  The last several days were upper-60's with calm winds...that was nice.

Whether or not a computer will boot from a USB drive or external device is related directly to the BIOS on the motherboard.  If you don't see the option in the BIOS screen, it won't do it...at least without a firmware update.

How is that even possible?  What, specifically, are you allergic to?  Pork, salt, or maple syrup?

That you're a "baker"?

If the trainer puts on weight, do they starve the baby giraffe?

That's one good thing about Kentucky.  There is a state law that insurance companies have to pay 100% of a windshield repair/replacement, and they cannot count it against the customer (i.e., raise rates, drop the customer, etc.).  It's considered a safety/visibility issue to drive around with a...

We just hired a metallurgist at my office.  It is probably too niche to be anything other than a specialty in an ME program, but they are particularly useful individuals when it comes to investigating failures.

I volunteer to bring out my high speed camera and film it for you if you volunteer to get doored into a bus again.

I read the Wikipedia article and I'm no closer to comprehending what its trying to say than I would be if it were written in Swahili.  Not only do I not understand what a tree is in this context, but I have no idea what reverse mathematics or ATR is (after reading their Wiki articles).

There's a wicked steep hill by my house (I only average about 7 mph going up it) that I once hit 40 mph going down.  It was pretty effin' scary.  I haven't reset the max speed on my trip computer since that ride (probably 5 years ago).

I have wrecked twice with clipless pedals (neither were very serious), and my shoes unclipped without me thinking about them both times.  I think the act of wrecking makes your feet turn enough to unclip without you having to consciously do it. Glad you made it through (relatively) unscathed.

Just got my new TV up and running, and holy ****.  Right off the bat, the thing you notice the most is the striking blacks.  After having looked at grayish, washed-out black on TV for so long, this thing is insane.  The first thing that popped up after the initial configuration was the local...

I got a pretty good deal on one from Amazon, so I have the 65" C8 being delivered on Wednesday.  The deal I got was basically MSRP, but it included a mount, a few HDMI cables, and some other junk that I probably won't use.  But when I went to checkout, there was a 15% discount on the whole...

The only place I've seen one in person is at Sam's Club, and it's too bright in there to get a feel for how anything looks.  I may pull the trigger on one.  Been thinking about it for 2 years now.
