Been a follower of Larry’s for a few years now. The thing I like about his videos is that he’s super thorough (as you mention) but he also doesn’t hock his own products unless they’re needed. For instance, you can use a bucket of soapy water to lube your clay and don’t need to shell out a ton of money on clay lubing…

Do you even SATA, bro?!

Same. Although some of these options are already part of the Sense interface, like the battery indicator.

I beat Mike Tyson when I was 8 and this was definitely pre-internet era when it wasn’t as easy as loading up YouTube and seeing how somebody else did it. Instead you had to subscribe to magazines like Nintendo Power or GamePro and most of the time those only gave you tidbits of info. There was even this one VHS series…

Have to say that I waffled back and forth on the roll-your-own/prebuilt NAS for a long time. Settled on a Synology DS1815+ after one of my coworkers recommended it. Wasn't cheap but I love the thing. It runs all of my media including transcoding, my dev environment for building websites, backs up my PCs, etc. The CPU…

I feel like a lot of the comments on this are missing the point: the guy did something custom and unique that he finds cool and suits his lifestyle. I wouldn’t do this for a number of reasons, but I enjoyed reading about the process and can still respect the effort put into planning all of this. I’d much rather buy an…

In the state of Illinois, you can pay more on your ticket and have it not sent to your insurance. It’s called “Court Supervision” (or at least it used to be, I haven’t received a ticket there in over 15 years now) and let’s say the moving violation is $75, then it’s something like $125 and you can’t get another ticket…

Nope, sorry I haven’t found anything else out. I would say it’s safe to assume that Cast to UPnP/DLNA is a completely dead project. I left it installed on an old cell phone of mine and there’s still no updates almost a year later. I haven’t bothered to try anything else out as I’ve done extensive work on my local…

I play a lot of online FPS games these days because they’re quick and easy to pick up and fit into my life better than RPG’s that I miss spending 90+ hours with. I’m pretty good at them, but the one common theme of frustration for me is lag compensation. I raged. I then raged harder. I’ve broken controllers over it.…

Been following Eric the Car Guy’s channel for some time now. He gives great info!

LOL except that nobody wants to buy MKII books nowadays

I used to go into my local arcade and play all day long on a couple of bucks with Mortal Kombat II. I was pretty damn good. This was before the interwebs was actually a thing in the rural Midwest and I’d subscribed to every gaming magazine I could find for those juicy MK tidbits. From those, I’d cultivate all the…

I'm a Buc's fan and I approve this message.

Knowing what I know now, yeah. This router was a failure. All hype and no substance.

The Belkin 12 Outlet Pivot Plug Surge Protector with 8 Foot Cord is showing $39.95. I even added to cart and went through to the final step of checkout to see if the discount gets applied later. Didn't help.

All the driver has to do is call Mors Mutual Insurance, pay about $10k and the car will be replaced in full. Hell, he could do it all over the phone. Then he just needs to call his mechanic to deliver the car again and off he goes...

The only reason I used the Companion App was to unlock Altair's outfit. I soon found out that it was an extremely arduous task, but I forged on because... reasons. Now, all that time I wasted is for naught while my last team of Assassins is literally on the precipice of completing that final mission right now. …
