  • Yes this is how I have mine setup to do just like OP is wanting.

  • This reminds me to go leave a review on their refresh of the app. I just got off a plane and Plex wouldn't load once I lost service for me or my wife to watch our downloaded media.

  • Caught in for, you mean?

    Almost there 😆

  • I used to use it to sync my watch history between Plex and Emby but stopped years ago when I dropped Emby. I can't imagine what they're offering that people would want to pay for though.

  • My favorite store moved away from the repair business and focuses more on extended warranties. We offer a bumper-to-bumper plan (including skidplates!) tailored just for you if you'd like to know more.

  • Honestly with such a reliable car I don't think you need much and the skid plate was just a fluke. Oil and coolant are probably not needed unless either are leaking. I drive a similarly reliable vehicle, a Camry that just crossed 210k miles, and just carry jumper cables, gloves, a flashlight, and a tow rope that I had laying around. Anything big is going to be too much to repair on the side of the road, so a flat tire or dead battery is about all I'm concerned with.

    In your tool list, I didn't see you mention a ratchet/breaker bar and socket for the lug nuts. The ones that come with the vehicle are usually lacking, so you may consider adding those.

  • Harbor Freight has come quite a long way and has multiple tiers of product quality now, including stuff that can be compared to SnapOn, Matco, etc (the Icon line). Some of it is really good without requiring you to pay insanely inflated tool truck pricing and the rest of the market outside of tool truck brands is also built in China now so it's fairly slim pickings if you don't want to pay outrageous prices. If you use your tools for a living, there's a good argument to use mainstream brands like SnapOn for their convenience, but for hobbyists and the like HF will suit you well. For power tools I mostly use DeWalt mainly because they're better quality and because of the battery lock-in, but I do have a few Bauer power tools and they work great and cost half as much along with batteries being half the cost. DeWalt wants you to pay $100 for four 18650 batteries which is insane. For stuff like griding disks, cutoff wheels, or other consumables, I do tend to go with name brand since they're all universal and the cost difference isn't that much.

    I do agree to be careful with stuff like jackstands, but I always double them up keep the jack under the car, put a tire under the car, and avoid being completely underneath them when possible. I actually bought a set of ramps just to avoid having to use them when I don't need the wheels off.

  • The DVD drive should have a SATA connector already.

    OP you can do this, I 3D printed a couple adapters to fit 3.5" drives into my old server case's 5.25" slots while migrating everything to a new server. My only real concern with the whole thing is that there's no rubber isolators on them which could cause issues longterm.

  • This is blasphemy. Harbor Freight is a saint compared to Temu.

  • And Goldmember! Same actor who dubbed Shrek in english.

  • They've been scaling back sales to the US due to the tariffs and changes to the exceptions not requiring import duties on things under $800

  • Geez, tough crowd. Or perhaps they need an accompanying laugh-track to know it's a joke.

  • No it isn't and they have openly talked about doing this practice back in the early days of reddit to make the site appear more active than it really was. Nothing has changed.

  • I just read that article about screwworms and how some lady who took a nap on the beach while on vacation had these eggs laid in her ear. You might be on to something.

  • I use it and it works great except their eddie client is kinda garbage (at least on Windows) so I switched to using Wiresock on Windows and then later gluetun after setting up a Linux machine.

  • I was with you with this thought experiment until the teleportation part and knowing that you weren't drugged. In this situation, you couldn't possibly know that at the time and that really changes things from a bizarre but realistic scenario to one involving aliens or some such.

  • I think the key difference is approaching them to try and "pick them up" versus approaching for a conversation. The former can be creepy and inappropriate while the latter is less so (depending on your demeanor and the situation).

  • As a taller person, I could see myself rocking a little too far and toppling over with my feet trapped in behind the lower bar. It's an interesting design though this version looks really rickety and like it's made out of cheap plywood.

  • Screw traffic cameras. Most of that money goes to private companies and it's all too tempting for cities to game them to increase revenue. I say we just park a bunch of empty cop cars around if you want people to slow down. Nothing works better and there's no cost involved outside of the initial purchase of the vehicles. It's cheaper and more effective.
