    Random (non-Jeep) Shit You’re Working On....

    I am not sure how the adjustable color temperature feature works, but I suspect that it works by tricking the eye. I think that any given device is only capable of producing certain colors. Adjusting the intensity of some of those colors might be more pleasing, but we are still being ripped off...

    Random (non-Jeep) Shit You’re Working On....

    We grew up with incandescent bulbs with 3k color temperature (the light produced by a tungsten filament at a temperature of 3k Kelvins) and full spectrum. Now they are pushing LED bulbs on us with 5k (or more) color temperature and non-contiguous color spectrum which only includes very limited...

    Power Tools

    I agree with cozdude. What does the "18v to 20v adapter" look like/do? It sounds like something clunky, if it is installed as a shim while using the tool. Does it make the 20v tool run at 18v with a bit less power? Much of the cost of the tools is the batteries and you will need enough of...

    Spotted Jeep JK for sale

    I take a good long walk on most days. I ran across this Jeep for sale in Dallas. I am not sure what it's story is, but i believe I saw it for sale a year ago when I last took that route. At first I thought that maybe it was a POS but on closer look, I see all name-brand stuff, with even an...

    They appear to be severely emaciated!

    Someone just tried to assassinate Trump

    I agree that some people are more "fortunate" than others in that they have a financial and/or social head start. A child has no control of the family they are born into, or physical/mental abilities. Assuming a reasonably capable body and mind, there is little preventing personal success...

    This time he has decided not to modify it, and leave it completely stock. Just like other times. 😄

    Pet Peeves - What Pisses You Off?

    It is good that it is still subject to the will of the people, but if it succeeds, then Newsom is very likely to be our next President.

    Rabbit Holes 🐇

    I just did some simple math, and assuming ability to use a tower at a distance of 15 miles (30 total), and 172mph, the maximum talk time would be about 627 seconds. This is a long call. Note that the maximum range to a cell tower is 25 miles (50 miles total) given ideal circumstances. This is...

    Rabbit Holes 🐇

    A mile is 5280 feet. When I am hiking at over 3500 feet from the valley floor (and multiple/many miles away from the closest cell tower) I am sometimes still able to use my cell phone to communicate with my wife. Speed is another factor entirely given that it would not take long at all (a few...

    Rabbit Holes 🐇

    In 2001? At the time, no one seemed to question that brief calls were possible, and in fact they were sometimes made. The technology is totally different now. Vastly more sophisticated. We are taking about the level of difference between a walkie-talkie and a directed energy beam.

    He will miss it, just like Pippi.

    Rabbit Holes 🐇

    Are you sure? 2001 cell phones (and supportive telecom systems) were very simple and would not know if a call was placed from 33,000 feet up, or 33,000 feet horizontally across the earth. If the radio works, then you are golden.

    Rabbit Holes 🐇

    Most people I worked with had cell phones in 2001, but I didn't. It was already difficult to find a pay phone which still worked. Then again I worked for a telecommunications company in an area near "telecom corridor" (where the movie "Office Space" was filmed). In 1988 (or 1989), one of my...
