Re: 4s winter rims

That looks pretty good. What tires are you going with?

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Holy Crap! I was going to complain about the 3" of snow we got a few days back. Glad I didn't now. You've got yourself a white Christmas alright. How much is supposed to fall today? Foot and a half, at least. It's stopped for now but I hope snow this early isn't a bad sign. Last year I don't th...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

Yeah wait until your eyes are as old as mine!! I paid big bucks for replacement bulbs for the Rav that were higher wattage and a clearer "blue" color after driving the 996 after dark and I realized how much I couldn't see at night in the Rav. I almost hate to say this but...LED headlights ...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I almost hate to say this but...LED headlights put the Xenons to shame and I love the Xenons on the 996. The Honda lights stuff up WAY down the road. Even just the daytime running lights reflect off of roadside signs...in the daytime! I have inadvertently started somewhat of a pissing contest over o...

Re: FRUNKenstein’s ‘75 914 2.0

Sounds like a good job on the 914. +2 on the Mahomes Magic! They had me worried for a while. Son in law from KC, MO assured me that they were fine. He was right. Today I had a few minutes to kill late morning, so I thought I’d try to tackle a few nagging issues. First up, the “Dominic Toretta” shift...

Re: Ok one more computer question...

Seems like all I have looked at are all May 2020 initial release. May must have been a bad month for Macs! I would get a one-year-newer device over a slightly older, slightly faster model. Since Apple's support lifecycle is based on the manufacturing date (i.e. "Early 2020"), I pick the ne...

Re: Ok one more computer question...

This is what I have now but I understand the I7 and 16gb and will go with that. I love the 13" version. Does the ghz on the core mean anything significant? Screen Shot 2020-12-14 at 11.50.35 AM.png Wow! Numerous opportunities. Help me decide. Do I need the 2.4 I7 or would a lesser machine be en...

Googling "rule 34" is safe.

Googling "used hard drive porn", maybe not so much (not finding out on my work computer)...

Re: Ok one more computer question...

Wow! Numerous opportunities. Help me decide. Do I need the 2.4 I7 or would a lesser machine be enough for my meager usage? Why or why not? Lots of 13s and 15s available from their refurb store for good (for Apple) prices: https://www.apple.com/shop/refurbished/mac/13-inch-15-inch-macbook-pro Still h...

Re: Good Week @ 996Outpost.com

I am NOT going to google that... That could be. I have also had to stop using a specific Amazon seller in the past because they were unable to consistently ship me NEW drives instead of used drives. I'm not sure who gets one of those in the mail, shrugs, and thinks "that'll do..." Rule 34?
