Ah come on guys, falling asleep is second nature, at least at my age anyway. I don't fall asleep at the wheel though, more often I have to toot my horn when someone in front of me is clueless to a traffic light turning green! :rolleyes:

OMG, you really DO do all the cooking in the house don't you! :oops:

Make sure wife doesn't accidentally put those cookies in the oven, because that would cause a serious meltdown! :ROFLMAO:

Discord gives me that same cringe feeling Twitch does. I never use them, but I've seen the kind of ridiculous stuff they allow.

It occurs to me, there ought to be battle events where part of your score is achieved by how well everything looks, which would make all that hard work and expense painting your models pay off. Even better if it were sponsored by some of the brands of models, paint, etc that are commonly bought...

Nice work on the models Beardy! Last time you showed some models it was some soldiers that looked to be painted well. As far as I know you never answered my question if you'd painted them yourself. I should have known better than to ask. You always say you paint them, but I DO recall at one...

This might help Beardy, check it out. The guy had the same problem but found it was a fuse blown, not the backlight. He even explains where he found it and that it's in a white box. https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/1ct5izq/p1_gen_4_backlight_not_working_after_repasting/

Here's one of the more clever Presidents Day Sale ads I've seen by an online shop I buy bike stuff from sometimes. :love:

Got in too late to edit my post about buying a better spin bike. I ended up cancelling that order same day, as I was seeing some red flags in reviews and they acted like they weren't sure it was canceled. They charge a cancelation fee if you don't cancel same day as the order, so I wanted to...

It's official, our Seahawks have won the Super Bowl! We had a small watch party in our apt building last night, viewing it on a Samsung 85" TV in our community room. We were up 9 to 0 at the half, and the Hawks continued to hold the Pats scoreless for 3 quarters! The Pats D is pretty good too...

If that's the case, I doubt you'd have any trouble upgrading or replacing anything that can be in a laptop like the Aero X16. As you can see in the video I posted above, the RAM and SSDs are very easy to access. Also, PC parts in general have only gotten more plug n play over the years, largely...

Honestly, any of these places that have lowest prices can have issues, even Geek Squad service sometimes. I mostly just compare them on worse case scenarios, like if you have to return something for a refund, and Walmart can be hard to work with on stuff like that. I replaced a HDD in a...

In that case, if you're willing to spend $1200, I'd say the Lenovo is the better laptop, if you're OK with a 15" vs 16" screen. Seems Walmart has the best price. Just make sure you test it out thoroughly within the return/refund period if you buy from Walmart. Most consumer electronics bought at...

You need to be more forthcoming with answers OP. Again, what games will you be playing mostly, and are you OK with 1080p gaming, or do you want to bump up to 1440p? From what I've read so far, the Lenovo uses a bit better cooling, but both have CPUs that are known for running cool. The Lenovo's...

Most avid gamers playing current games are either on or are transitioning from 16 GB RAM to 32 GB, so that is spot on. You'd get a more detailed assessment by listing the thing's full spec though. If you are referring to this model...
