I think its time I spoke to a doctor about adult diagnosis
I realised today that I cannot actually remember the last time I felt relaxed. I'm so fucking tired.
"All I want for Christmas is you" isnt as bad as...
The memes about it coming starting to pop up in mid october. Its one joke about the song being overplayed, the joke is never original, Ive never seen a creative version of it. If old people have "boomer humor" whats the short term for "Millenials without two brain cells to rub together who will share on any joke that they understand"
The song is well produced overplayed pandering pop garbage. The jokes about it suck more.
Thoughts on the Yamaha RX-V4A
Ive been looking into what I can put together for the price I can get a Samsung q990f system for and this reciever seems to do everything I want and it has the benefit of being cheapish.
Essentially I want to watch 4k blurays on a 4k tv with good surround sound. I love the "one box, minimal wires, no legwork" nature of the Samsung. That has value to me. BUT its not quite as good and if something in the bar goes dead, the whole setup is pretty much garbage. So I'm exploring my options.
Second hand receivers that arent 15 years old are still demanding half of what that receiver costs me new, and it seems to have everything that someone setting up a budget 4k 5.1 home theater could want. So, thoughts?
Soundbar VS cheap 5.1
Ok, I need an honest, no BS assessment on how a Samsung q990d system will compare to a cheap 5.1 (or 7.1 etc) system.
I can get a q990d for $1400aud which includes rear speakers and a sub. Will connest with the samsung tv and its all just ready to go out of the box.
Surround sound setups range from free to $40,000... of course a well thought out setup will be better but I just want to hear the cars overtaking me when I watch Ford Vs Ferarri.
For the "sub 2k" price bracket. As a novice, how much am I leaving on the table really?
Cybertrucks have made Hummer ownership less embarrassing.
You still look a bit of a dick, but so much less bad now.
Can anyone identify these wheels?
17x7.5,, has a made in england stamping but no definitive stampings for pcd, offset or centerbore. Look like RS Cosworth wheels but arent. Has a retaining bolt hole for the flat bolt hole cover (which I'll post in another comment, which matches some 90s ford wheels) owner says they came off a Peugeot but my fellow french car enthusiasts say they definitely arent an OE Peugeot wheel.
Germans of Lemmy, what has been said about Musks "hand gesture" in your country?
Yes, Its a Nazi salute. I just didnt want to load the question.
Austin Powers was made approximately as long ago as Austin spent frozen.
If he was frozen at the very end of the 60s he spent 28 years frozen and was defrosted in 1997... which was 28 years ago this year.
Want to get a hint of what Austin went through being defrosted, go check out how poorly some of those jokes aged.
Whats an unethical or dangerous experiment that you would like to see performed or perform (if it werent for the ethics/danger)
For me "How long could I get away with driving like an ABSOLUTE ASSHOLE all the time before I lost my licence or had an accident." Speed limits, red lights, stop signs... forget them all. Every day I have to drive sensibly and obey the law because without my licence I dont have a job, and every day I see at least one person driving like an absolute moron and I wonder...
IF Hatians were cooking up people's pets in Ohio...
Its probably the most delicious thing that's ever been cooked there.
YT channel cooking terrible vintage recipes.
This guy has only made 4 videos so far but I want more. I just wish he wasn't shooting in TikTok format.
What are the COOLEST looking E-bikes.
Forget practicality and cargo bikes, the utilitarian fat tyre commuter ones too. I want to see what this community thinks the ones that look badass are.
(Excluding concepts please)
Intelligence agencies should start conducting black ops on Ransomware hackers and phone scammers.
They risk our infrastructure and they steal or extort billions. I wouldnt feel bad if I read "Scam phone center destroyed in mystery explosion"
Has anyone here been prescribed TRT? Or had a partner on it?
Got my bloods done and my Testosterone levels are LOW. I'm working out a lot and kind of pissed Ive been doing it on "hardmode" for god knows how long, but before I take the doc up on the script I'm doing my due diligence on the realities. It seems like every article I find is either written by a trt clinic or is a one sided hit piece. So Im after some real world experiences.
