  1. The others bring up a good point.  If you’re just looking to listen to “your music” and you have a smartphone and car with Bluetooth/CarPlay then going with a music streaming app on the phone may be better.  You pick exactly the songs/artists/genres you want.    
     

    If, instead, you want a wide range of music, talk, sports, etc or primarily listen where you don’t have cell service.   Then XM may be better.  


  2. I’ve had it since 2001.  Either paid for or included when I’ve purchased a new vehicle.    It was really nice to always have the same channels, of which there are a ton, anywhere you’re driving.  Some of that benefit maybe has waned due to phone integration and streaming apps but it’s still pretty convenient.  Also getting all the NFL and NHL games is sweet if we are on the road during the season.

    Logged on today does anyone know what's going on? Ironic considering your topic! lol

    And no info or recording on the phone line neither.

    Attention: At this time the range is under mandatory shutdown at the range until further notice. We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Looking at their Facebook page and appears it’s been shutdown since the 13th for construction or something.

    i'm not sure this was ever missed. as far as i've lived in this stupid state bb guns have been considered firearms. if you bought a nice gammo or daisy pellet gun from gander mountain back in the day you've been a felon for many years now. congrats for just realizing it...

    just do a basic search of this forum and you'll see results talking about nj classifying pellet and bb guns as firearms as far back as 2009...

    That’s true, but even with that idiotic rule one could possess a BB gun if you had a FPID.  Now, since the BB gun does not have a serial number printed by a “firearms manufacturer” possession of one is a felony.

     Your PC's power supply is 750W.  

    I believe that 750w is worst case. Cranking the CPU, GPU, Disk, and Network plus margin.   Nominally I doubt it’s using anywhere near that.   
    That reinforces that the UPS’ listed would work and he’d get more uptime from them than listed. 


  6. I don’t know of anything recent that will burn CD’s to a device.  It used to be that you could burn them to your computer and then download them to devices.  I haven’t messed with that in a decade. 
     

    Streaming wise I’ve used Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube music to stream to my phone.  They are all very easy to use once you have an account.  YouTube music was included in YouTube premium.  I think Amazon/Prime has a music service as well.  


  7. “Back in my day it was…” Blah blah blah. 
    Yes, interest rates were higher 40 years ago.  But the cost of the house has skyrocketed too.  Paying 16% on a $250k SFH in 1985 is better than 6% on $650k for the same house today.

  8. Had a tornado warning in Burlco.  Went from “hey, it’s getting dark” to “Oh shit…” in like ten minutes.   Had a 70-100lb “branch” land in the road in front of my house.   While trying to clear a little of it two cars barreled through it at 40.  Me thinks they may be hitting a mechanic tomorrow.  Plastic debris everywhere.

    NJ gun laws: We know strict concealed carry works. This is why | Opinion (yahoo.com)

    "There is just no argument when it comes to banning the concealed carry of firearms: it works."

    Except for the fact that criminals don't follow laws, idiot. :facepalm:

    There are so many fallacies in that “opinion”.

    Recently, Acting Attorney General Matthew Platkin discussed New Jersey’s decrease in gun violence and pointed to our state’s strict gun laws as one of the main reasons for this decline. 

    Except CCW laws only got relaxed in 2022 and really that impact wasn’t see until late in the year.   Has no bearing on the decrease in “gun violence”.
