  • They definitely are proud of their product. It was a huge change for me. I'd been a back pocket bifold or trifold guy my entire life, and I just got to the point I hated it. Had to remove it from my pocket if I was driving or riding my motorcycle or sitting for any extended period of time. It collected crap I had no need to collect, etc.

    Bought my Ridge, my wife laughed and said"that elastic will never last". I'm still on my first elastic!

    I bought them for two of my three sons who also love theirs.

    All that said, I've looked a couple of times at ones like you shared, and think they would work great also.

  • This doesn't really affect my household. My wife, my daughter, and I all have lifetime PlexPasses.

    That said, this level of enshitification has me wishing there were options (yes I know about Emby and Jellyfin and I've investigated both more than once) but they have me ensnared by PlexAmp and Sonos integration. I've been around since before anyone had even seen the letters MP3 strung together, and I have never had a music player as capable as PlexAmp.

  • I know I suck, I know it beyond any shadow of a doubt. I have know. It for over fifty years. Sometimes my brain is mostly silent on that subject, other times it is not.

    I have a friend who heard me make the above statement. She took umbrage that I would say such a thing, and sent me this clip...

    I'm not a fan of the show, but to me, that one clip was life-changing.

    I have a Van Gogh action figure on my desk as a constant reminder.

    A fascinating bit of baseball history

    I'm trying to learn to be a fan of baseball. This sort of history helps shape that burgeoning fandom.

    For as long as I can remember, and that's quite a long time, I have thought I should be a baseball fan, but I have never ever been a baseball fan. Soccer? I've been #RCTID since 1976. Football? I've been a Seahawks fan since I learned to understand football. Basketball? I can vividly remember celebr...

    Trying to find a song based on a very tiny fragment of memory

    There's a song, I think I only heard one time likely on KGON in Portland, OR and likely in the late 70s. This song has haunted me over the years but I have never been able to locate it again.

    The one thing I really remember is that there is a spoken-word portion where the vocalist talks about the Boogie Woogie, but pronounces it more like Boozhi Woozhi.

    I'm laying in bed quarantined with Covid and once again its memory and my inability to determine what song it was is haunting me.

    Favorites Broken on Series X

    My favorites broke. They were working great but now they don't work at all. I can't favorite anything there icon sits in the middle of the plus sign and I can't move it to any open slot. Things I had already favorites continue to work, but I can't add new things or swap things out.

    I've tried dropping my entire inventory and then picking things back up but that is not resolving there issue. It's not game-breaking but it is frustrating.

    XCOM 2 on Series X

    How does XCOM 2 play on the Series X? Is it worth getting even though I already own it on PC?

    Love the game and would love to be able to play sitting on my couch!
