Texas vs Texas State, midweek series thread, March 8th & 9th
That’s fair, my ten year old AppleTV hasn’t been rebooted in over a year, not a single issue with any app… you do you boo.

10 years, never a single issue. Just pay the Apple Tax.

Русский корабль - иди нахуй
Yeah, was just clarifying because the screenshot of the tweet above didn't even show why it was related to the meme.

Click the tweet to go to twitter to see why this is Leeroy Jenkins.

His screenshot is bad, as it is just of the preview. Someone posted the actual twitter link before, and when you clicked on it, a single Indian Air flight was over the middle of the no-fly zone.

Post a pic that makes you say "Holy shit."
It's a 360 cam on a helmet mount. https://gopro.com/en/us/shop/cameras/max/CHDHZ-202-master.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAsNKQBhAPEiwAB-I5zeUSvWTiQx9-gYargQ6d9XlVpQvZrd7tUL9BSXkTAMULbUSZ-oX-5BoC5GwQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds https://store.insta360.com/product/unicorn_helmet_mount

We flew in and out of Honolulu. We did Pearl, as well as all the in town things to do. Had the hotel keep our bags in bag check.

Apple iPhone Thread
No idea, as I don't use those. I've used Gif Keyboard for years, and it IMO has a much larger library (Imgur owns it), and is easier to find weird/hard to find images. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/gif-keyboard/id917932200

A few keys on my keyboard aren't working 50% of the time
https://satechi.net/products/slim-x1-bluetooth-backlit-keyboard?variant=33573650071640 super small and thin, basically a knockoff Apple keyboard. And Bluetooth. Set it right on top of your old keyboard.

They cannot. It’s a complete top case replacement. So if you are covered under the recall or an AppleCare agreement, as said above, it will be pretty painless. Otherwise, you will be paying for a new top case/buying a new machine/having to go external keyboard.

If it’s a MacBook, dont just pop them off, you wont get them back on. Depending on year model, there was an entire design structure of keyboards that were notorious for this. https://www.macrumors.com/guide/butterfly-keyboard-vs-scissor-keyboard/ I think there may have been a recall at some point, for some models. But either way, you are looking at a trip to an Apple store.

Favorite Hot Sauce
I actually found it a HEB again recently. Not on the hot sauce isle, but on the international food isle. Right above the Irn-Bru.

Dumb Question Amnesty Thread
The last two times I’ve been stopped, they didn’t even ask, because they were checking a computer and didn’t give a shit what I could show them. the two times before that, a glance of dates on the screen sufficed. And all the times before then when I had a paper copy, it was immediately handed back after checking. They have never taken POI back to the cruiser. and I had a pretty serious leadfoot-itis problem in my 20’s, with the occasional relapse.

Travel Backpack Recs Wanted
All of you that have not used a travel backpack, they open just like a roller bag. There is no digging around the bottom. There is no being inferior to a carryon, because they open identically to one. They also have very comfortable straps, and a robust waist belt, much like the best backpacking bags. It’s the best of both worlds. Google Osprey Farpoint. I don’t know if it’s the first, and it may no longer be the best, but it’s the standard. @Post Oak just read the reviews, they will not lead you astray. Yes I do use packing cubes with my farpoints, but I have never “loved” them. I do guess they aid in organizing, but I’m not sure they really add more space like folks claim.

Travel Backpack Recs Wanted
I have an osprey farpoint 40 and a 75. bought over a decade ago. they have taken me all over the world. if I were buying today, I’d buy a Peak Design, as I love their EDC bag. but the Farpoints just won’t give me a reason to replace them.

Truck Nuts
Bought one of these years ago when a battery went dead at a trailhead in Big Bend. My jumper cables that I've had since I was 16 don't do much good when you have to wait 4 hours for another vehicle to arrive. I know it's not the issue you need to solve, but this is cheap insurance, and can charge your phone/act as flashlight in a pinch. https://www.amazon.com/NOCO-GB50-UltraSafe-Lithium-Gasoline/dp/B07MVY7K43/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=1HMJK4LSF6XKE&keywords=noco+boost+xl&qid=1643726415&sprefix=noco+boost+xl%2Caps%2C92&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUE1REhPVFFHUDczQk8mZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTA0NjM4ODNUUzJLTFgzVlUwR0smZW5jcnlwdGVkQWRJZD1BMDgzNTkyOThRWVVRTk5HMzVLSyZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2F0ZiZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU=

It's not system wide. But I have never noticed a ton of ads everywhere like you mention.

Kids' names that your spouse rejected
I spent 4 years telling everyone we were going to give my first born a family name my wife did not like. So in the delivery room, when she once again protested the family name, I suggested Nolan, which was the real name I had always wanted. Nolan is 18 months old. long game.

Kauai
We did the day hike, as my wife is not a huge backpacker. I’m super jealous of you. I’m sure you’ve seen the pics before, but that ledge looks fun. We caught some folks mid transit in the pic below. Also, very good call on skipping the swim to Honopu. The morning after we did the short hike, we did a boat tour that had to be cut short, because we had to pull a guy out of the surf attempting that swim. Needless to say, he did not make it. Not exactly the boat trip we signed up for.

The "Post a Picture You Took" thread
Not where I was expecting. Looks like a sign and filling station from my small West Texas town.

If you don't mind me asking, where was this taken? Curious if this sign/station is where I think it is.

Christmas Menus
I did a brisket and pork butt on the smoker, and turkey is on now for wife’s side of the family. Head Monday to my side and am smoking red snapper, beef tenderloin, prime rib and will do a shrimp boil.
