They could avoid a roster expansion and just get rid of the mandatory inactives. Teams dress 53 players every week rather than the 46 currently allowed.

The ones in my car tend to fail at big numbers, I think my first set lasted until 150k. I just replaced both of them because it’s faster to do both at the same time than wait for the other one to fail.

When doing wheel bearings, slide hammers are your friend. Much easier way to pull a bearing off a spindle, and far more satisfying. Honestly they are my favorite tool because there are precious other times while working on a car where you just get to go ham on something and that’s exactly what you were supposed to…

You guys know that it’s just one dude that drives an entire Aircraft Carrier right? It only takes one person to pilot a ship of virtually any size. Helm control is always controlled at a single station. You need the crew to do all the other things plus fix crap that breaks down, but piloting the vessel is a one man…

There is nothing explicitly stated in any of the movies that the navicomputer *must* complete it’s calculations prior to engaging hyperspace. In fact we know for sure you can jump to hyperspace before the computer finishes its calculations as that exact thing was done in Rouge One as they were fleeing Jedha. If you…

Well If you want to go down the turbo hole, the S55 is, in stock form, already throwing down close to 500hp. Even though it’s only rated at 425, it regularly dynos near 425 at the wheels, the M4 GTS dynos near 480 at the wheels. That puts a normal M3/4 at ~480-500hp and the GTS at ~540-560hp. No mods needed, just…

The Speed Six engine was good for up to 440hp in 2006, I’d think they could get that in the ballpark of 500hp with a bit of work.

On a hardcore track-day car I get it. The weight of the A/C isn’t going to cause the Jeep any time when it’s offroading at 2mph.

I mean can you blame him? Wearing pants would just get comfortable after being aroused for 8 hours a day.

*legs. It’s all about the weight reduction.

Technically the first hybrid was the Lohner-Porsche Elektromobil in 1900. It used a battery bank plus a range extender gas engine connected to a generator. 

See, that sounds more like it’s an issue with the implementation of the assist features rather than the features themselves. I had a loaner X1 for a month earlier this year, and it had all those features, except blindspot.

True, but Comcast has already EOS’d all D2.0 or lower modems, so that shouldn’t be an issue.

Arris SVG2482AC, Arris TG862R, or Netgear C7100V if you want to keep it as a gateway, Netgear CM500V or Arris TM822R if you are down with getting a router(or own one already).

They do bump speeds up on a regular basis, sometimes with a bill increase, sometimes not. I started out 10 years ago with them at 6mbps and having never changed my plan am now at 200mbps. The price did go up by something like $20, but I’m ok with $20 for a 3300% speed increase. IIRC they are moving all 75 tiers to…

D3.1 should function better on worse lines than D3.0. And the long-term goal of the cable industry is to move everything to D3.1 because they can fit 64 D3.1 channels into the space of 1 D3.0 channel. That will let them go IP based everything, which is the real end-goal right now. I have no idea when it would…

An 8 channel will only hit 340mbps in a lab sitting 3' from the headend. In the real world, each channel is worth ~30mbps. The 42mbps per channel that the manufactures claim is impossible to achieve in anything outside of a lab setting.

The SB6121 is a 4 channel downstream modem. That limits it to around 100mbps once you take overhead and real-world channel speeds into account. If you are on 75 down right now they are probably going to bump you to 105 which would be pushing the limits of your modem.

Just because a modem supports Docsis 3.0 does not mean it’s good to go for any speeds. 4 channel modems aren’t good past 100mbps and 8 channels max at 200mbps. The vast majority of modems sold in the last few years were 4x or 8x modems, and are going to start showing up EOL soon.

Yeah, if you are on a 200 down plan with a 4x down modem, you are, at best, getting ~120mbps. It’ll cost you $150-200 but I’d highly recommend jumping to a Docsis 3.1 modem. It’s overkill right now, but it will be ahead of the curve for probably at least 5 years. Also, I just checked on amazon, you can get a 4-year…
