That exhaust sound, though...
Turn everything except save-game file to read-only.
Can't reset controls if can't change them.
wow ferrari and john deere owned by the same ppl i guess
I thought JD was US?
"you only sort of own the vehicle"
it is but they have pretty restrictive ownership garbage ppl have to deal with too
Oh...that way.
Yea.
Vendor lock-in + control.
'It's not your car! It's the manufacturer's car!'
Soon, we're going to be 'licensing' cars for use.
'This Nissan Leaf is being licensed to user X for 50 years.'
Android, not Apple...though wouldn't be surprised if that happened.
Google's 'Glance' application.
Or rather, company.
No app download needed. Just enable Glance on your Android phone or buy a Glance-enabled phone.```
the fck is screenshot folder
ios 16 some are claiming has the ability to allow ads
What it says...taken using in-game buttons.
like, on ur phone?
For me, in Heat, it's 'Print Screen'...
Might be the same for you, not sure. Check PC Gaming Wiki.
Well...Apple's been high on security and safety, but end of the day...capitalism wins, for some BS reason.
The security of apple has nothing to do with capitalism.
found it
jeezus
XD
its an M3 E46 tho
idk why the never add back the gtr to nfs games
BMW M3 GTR driven by Hans-Joachim Stuck. 1 lap on NΓΌrburgring Nordschleife.
sorry not sorry
XD
audio is all that matters XD
on the nurburburgergerring?
and the YT is IRL m3 gtr XD
ohhh real person on nubergring
and car
you get that M3 in heat also
same badass audio?
but not gtr i guess? idk i sold it immediately
its one of the ones you cant really modify and i hate those spoilers so much
at least i wont
you can also buy it again at the dealership if u really want it, once its unlocked
I mean their focus on security over being open to monetization.
ffing a that dude is blasting through the nurburg ring
That's not the true GTR, though...just the normal M3 with a body-kit.
yeah i know
Although in Heat, you can swap the engine to the real GTR and...well...
oh wait what nvm
i mean i literally posted it below it XD
Sorry, my bad. π
XD
But, in Heat...you can turn a normal M3 into a GTR.
i like engine swapst, slap a v8 in a civic and see what happens
Quite literally...except for wheels.
if audio not same
Not all engines are available for every car.
it aint gtr
I think it is...they did get the real GTR in game.
also think gtr engine was quite unique tho
You get it after beating the story.
yeah i know, i cant put a V12 in a civic :π
And unlocked at the dealer too...
In-game too...some engines only on some cars.
but thats as far as my limited car knowledge go
It was...although the M3 E92's engine is built off the GTR's engine.
yeah thats what im sayin, im aware lol, supercars u can slap a v12 in sometimes, lil cars maybe up to a V8
So...
if you havent checked the YT video yet
Nothing like making a high-power I4, though...
god, the new burger ring is such a long track
I saw it before...
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
i think i did a 50 lap endurance race on it in GT2 and wanted to die
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Hans Stuck's GTR videos are the only ones, apparently...and all from cockpit.
The transmission whine is...loud.
Why? And what game?
Gran Turismo 2 (GT2)
because you got sweet rewards for winning endurance races
it is, sadly no speedometer
whats his lap time, we can get average velocity
The thing is...the audio is probably from the real GTR, but the transmission whine is tied to the engine rather than transmission...TBH, other cars get their own transmission whines, but...seriously, they just mashed it in the engine audio file rather than make it dynamic...
So it's a pain.
Then that's not death, right? π
12 min ish 30
oooh whyd i want to die? because it wasnt fun at all lol
Well...endurance, after all.
video is literaly 12 min 58 long
but end has like 20 sec of trailing pit talk
not sure if they cut a part out tbh
I mean...I got 11 minutes something on the Nurburgring in a stock Mini Cooper on a key-board in NFS Shift 2 Unleashed...
I haz no idea how a proper race car does 12 minutes.
so like a mile a minute
Well...that's a 2004-2005 video...
also
maybe two laps?
tourist cars on field
average 120 mph?
I thought those were different classes of racers?
no desc says 1 lap
probably closer
GTR tops out at 210 KM/H...
oh, then yeah, average 60 mph kinda low
With stock transmission.
probably during toursiten fharen
that all cars mixed
but idk
Ah...yea, makes sense. I think he was stuck behind a couple of racers at times?
Not sure.
i didnt watch too closely
I thought all of them were racers rather than civilian traffic.
But yea, the GTR isn't really that fast.
This is a classic video and it can be found everywhere on the net. It's an absolute must-see, if you love the Nordschleife or want to learn the track. Watch Hans-Joachim Stuck carve through traffic in his BMW M3 GTR on his way to a record-setting lap, and hear his insightful turn-by-turn commentary.
This video is a mashup of two other video...
there
with commentary
It barely accelerated in 5-6 gear...and the straights are a pain.
I put the transmission ratios of the GTR in the real MW...car is a pain to drive.
hmm yeah i guess 120 average wouldnt make too much sense if tops out at 130
First gear is way too long, other 5 gears are excessively short.
So it's...going to be slow.
i figured it would be all modded up though
ah
345 HP...365 Nm of torque...not much.
so basically 2 mins of arm up
Around 270 or so lb.-ft.
he does it in 8 mins then
also, average speed of 120mph is F1 speeds so
as i educate myself it seems 60mph average closer to reality for that car
Yea...wait...
look at the 2nd video
I have, actually...
I went through that while modifying Most Wanted game files.
Both of the GTR videos.
the commentary is nice tho

So yea, GTR would only be slightly slower.
It's a race-car, so it can literally go full-throttle.
Till...you end up losing rear grip and slam into the wall... π
500Hp
That McLaren video was a pain to do on a KB...AI is tough, so...
was stuck behind a few cars too
i want the car but i also dont
444 HP and 354 lb.-ft. of torque...
with the fuel prices XD
yall gunna make me go home and play NFS instead of GTA
Heat doesn't have the same engine...has to be the street GTR's engine.
I knew it.
Pretty sure race engines don't even exist at this point, except for one or 2.
get few mods XD

Eh...no place to drive it, TBH.
Cayman's nice.

Loved the Cayman ever since MW...
Make Baron's Cayman.
Flames, rivets, everything.

Putting a 730 HP 6.5L V12 in an M3 E92...crazy enough?
evo
nope
Still not sure what car that engine is from...I think the Huayra...
sounds totally reasonable to me
Original Video used for the audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=noKT7z76rqA&t=2s
thx yt
Now that's a whine.
I want some smooth engines, though...with no whine...or only very slight.
are the electric cars in NFS any fun? i could buy a polestar but also feel like i wont enjoy it because no vroom vroom
instant accel
why not
and no "battery"
yeah i know about that but idk, i like the vroom vroom
anybody here play Risk of Rain 2?
recently someone im aware of hydroplaned and crashed their tesla, and i was thinking that "hmm maybe instant torque application to drivetrain is more dangerous in low friction conditions"
Vrum vrum

is that one of those storybook games?
no, It's a really fun, indie, third person shooter
this server is rather large
someone will probably help me
My camp
Uh...there's no electric cars, though?
Damn...never thought there'd be a song like that.
fr?
it's rather cluttered up now and there's new people so
Any one here heard of/played/ currently plays Risk of Rain 2
Laters, man. Take care. π
All in-game cars have engines...so...don't worry.
Not me.
you don't really have to ping me to say no
it kinda gives the vibe of a "yes" but then I see it isn't
yeah but its just gunna go REEEEEEEE like an elextric car
y tho
rude dont ping ppl on IRC
come breathe with me
uauahaha
π·
gonna hit the deckls
neighbors im sorry
wghy is there no vynel emjoji
oops
no vinykl emoji
You know, pings are automated, right? Have to manually turn them off per message...
That's more than annoying.
Since Discord developers are either a bunch of lazy idiots...or just idiots.
That's the thing...there are no electric cars in-game.
Hybrids, yes. Full electrics, no...
Polestar One and the Koenigsegg Regera are the only hybrids, I think.
And...engine swaps exist.
The only full electric car to date was in NFS Most Wanted 2012...the Tesla Roadster.
Who knows?
i t is

risk of rain 2?
no risk of rain here, like freaking 30 celsius at midnight
the game
I was playing fallout 76 and me and some randoms were doing the daily op we almost finished it but my game crashes at the end
Isnβt that game bad?
BK, I sympathize
Im sitting in a chair utterly soaked by a hose after watering the last 2 hours outisde
So you made it past another year. Thats a achievement these days lol
i did, thanks π
scorching
i mean
104f now
last couple of nights, like, just terrible
we're reaching 45C in some areas of the - Portugal
OOOOH!
Yeah, that sums up what it was like here last year for 2 weeks
Hi 47c
stayed there for days
gods
Yeah that was NOT normal
It gets 40c here all the time, thats the hot part of summer for a few weeks. Off and on
118 f is just unheard of
that's "give me my exosuit extreme heat s-class module" weather
yeah, it's getting pretty crazy
Unfortunately with the thermal momentum totally fed up around the world due to the oceans absorbing so much heat, this may be normal for the next 300 years.
wild fires are really starting to hit everywhere around here.
Although here is the odd bit with thermal momentum.
Rain doesnt disappear. if it doesnt just cease, it can be erratic and not be useful
or all the thermal momentum can cause cold spots and wet spots while everyone else cooks
thats what hit us this year
We had this weird thermal vortex, slammed snow 2 months later then usual into us
tons of rain
Ill take it lol
we're under the influence of an anti-cyclone right now
super low humidity, strong winds
high temperatures
wild fires breeding grounds
Sorta scary when you considert the long term impact itll have on food production. We have been eating through world stockpiles for 2 years now
Another bad year and the famines start
Mind you on a historic scale, this happens quite often.
Its just uglier in a modern world with multi billions
ANYWHO! I must goooo!
π
Stay as cool as you can:D
Ok i'm getting pretty desparate here so I'll ask. We moved and hooked up new equipment. The living room has a big samsung tv. Our first smart tv with a rechargeable battery remote from comcast. And for 3 weeks it won't let us eatch tv because it is constantly searching for Como-TT. And turns the tv screen into random dots and patterns. It turns itself on and runs como-tt in the middle of the night as well and wakes us up. So we have had to unplug it. A tech failed to figure it out. But he gave us 3 days off it.
Sentient tv?
so there's no STB?
My entire neighborhood is being built and half the homes are still just a cement basement or framing. And the tech told me it could be connecting to bluetooth in a 100 yard radius
What's STB?
set top box
i mean, the service comes straight to the tv, or does the tv connect via some way to a router?
I can't even navigate the settings anymore because it forces this screen 24/7
Oh we have a hub in the basement it goes through.
The bluray player is in the basement also
The tech replaced all that once. And turned off bluetooth connection. Neither has worked
Pretty much waiting for judgement day terminator style
The hub is control 4. So is our smart house and ring is hooked up to it
So you can turn on the tv via panel on the wall also
However the control 4 people told me they have no idea how to connect my phone to it because I'm android and they only work with apple. So that is a separate issue later on. It just affects me live streaming radio broadcasts on youtube through the house. Nothing else
We have something named av in the basement
those two devices seem to be 1) a noise filter and 2) an extender, using a lan cable (which i assume would connect to the equipment in the basement)
Yes
Sorry this kind of tech stuff is over my head terminology wise.
The media center in the basment is locked. So i can't open the glass to get a picture.
i should say that a) i'm slightly drunk and b) i'm not familiar at all with this ISP (i'm from Portugal), but i am very familiar with ISP/IPTV/Internet Access/VoIP services in general
Portuguese
Ah makes more sense
π
My friends in brazil speak it also
anyway, sorry for the questions - i was trying to understand how the whole thing was setup
This whole neighborhood was an assembly mine with toll brothers. And they work with connect 4
and give you a user interface
The tv fully boots up. And the second it does it scans for como-tt on the top bar. Than switches to this pothead polkadot shit
It will boot itself up in the middle of the night without us using the remote also and do this
if i search "commo-tt" on google, it gives me stuff about "how to post on twitter"
lmao
google-fu sucks rn
Idk wtf como-tt is even
But my sister and her friend were lauging their asses off at me at the lakehouse this weekend
We've had so many issues with this house in the first 3 weeks
--kzzt--
I had a day it was frozen when i tried to turn on music on the panel and blasted Q Dance radio. The edm channel from germany
And it was loud for the neighbors attached
does the word "xfinity" mean anything to you?
Until I figured out where the power button was to force reset
Yes we pay for xfinity. It's our cable
Monthly with comcast
So connect 4 is the smart home tech company. Comcast is the cable. Verizon is the cell phone provider lmao
So the tech thought this may be someone forcing their bluetooth to invade our house
Like a worker building a home nextdoor who doesn't english might not realize he is sending music to our tv
the connect 4 tech?
Yea
The connect 4 tech got it to work for me for 3 days than it's back to this
He tried blocking and disabling Bluetooth
It bypasses
Or it's not bluetooth.
No idea how to identify what the hell como-tt even is
unless the software isn't actually killing power to the BT chip, i guess it could still be transmitting/receiving somehow
all i get is xfinity
Ah ok
"xfinity x1"?
If i can get the tv to load properly it would let me switch channels like normal. The remote is xfinity
found a manual for this, not quite sure what it is yet
Let me unplug it. I'll send you a pic once it loads
We have an xfinity remote control. The tv is a samsung smart tv. Possibly oled idk
mhm
Xfinity cable box is in the basement with the media center.
So the connect 4 wall touch screen for the house let's me turn on the tv if I don't want to pick up the remote.
yeah, this como-tt thing looks to be some proprietary thing, i can't get any good hits on it
Yep i plugged it back in after unplugging it. And it turned itself on
It's like being high on magic mushrooms
I can hear the local news in the background.
No visual
so internet is working
so wait
Says play music on your mobile device.
the tech thinks this "Como TT" is someone's device?
Maybe
Yea
Can't confirm
But it's a possibility it could be any bluetooth in 100 yard radius
but a sw reset to defaults should take care of that; besides, the sw is clearly lacking if it doesn't have a way to control which BT mac addresses are allowed?
No idea.
but a sw reset to defaults should take care of that;
The connect 4 tech got it to work for me for 3 days
The problem is this this thing takes over the tv 24/7 so i can't fuss with settings
No idea how he got it to stop for 3 days
And somehow it started again
Probably have to.
This has been 3 weeks if not 4 of no tv since we moved in
I mean on thie tv
We have an old tv upstairs before smart tv's existed I can use.
don't know if you done this already or not, but maybe walking around the neighborhood with a BT scanner, see if you can track down it's location while someone keeps forcing the TV to attempt to connect to it?
Is there a phone app? I could try that.
possibly
Would be better to do it tomorrow wheb the workers are all here.
i could help look for one
My sister said people fuck with her on flights these days and force their music onto her bluetooth headphones.
So it could be intentional sabotage. Or it could be accidental
seems to have good reviews
I'll try it
this would basically leave it all up to your provider
I hear process of elimination with a bluetooth device can be a pain in the bum
and we all know how providers like to defend their customers
Yea
I've had so many battles over faulty comcast boxes
And constant verizon issues with a galaxy note phone
I'm fed up with tech corporate giants
i really wish you guys had as good as service as we do over here.
(fiber to the home connections are common here)
we're a small country so that helps ofc
smaller investment had to be made
anyway
i guess yeah, when everybody's around, it would be a good time to scan
Yea we get screwed in the US.
It's picking up 8 bluetooth devices tonight. 7 plus the samsung tv is number 8
Gives a watch logo on the rest
Nothing says como-tt
so weird
Jesus, I live in a sketchy apartment complex with a smart TV and don't even have that problem
like
i don't even get why
it's getting stuck on something, when it should just probe for a few secs, unable to connect, move on, give control to user asap
I know this ridiculous. And it's a very expensive over 55 neigborhood
i'm really guessing software fault
Could be faulty software in the tv. Good point
yeah
I think it finally stopped for a while. I don't see it pop up
And I fussed with that app
I told my phone to forget the headset it was paired with. And my mother's car for music
Her bmw has been fucking up my phone royally
When i try and sync to drive her car
Let me unplug the tv and see what happens.
And if it works tonight. I wonder if the construction workers tomorrow will do it again
Nvm it just started again fuck
π¦
so you're watching tv, and out of the blue, bam, it goes "connecting to como tt"
No. It does it the second you turn on the tv
oh
You get your tv picture. About to change channel and it forces como-tt
And if you go to bed it will turn on and go to como-tt by itself
ok yeah, i understood the whole thing the first time, sorry was just confirming
i'm coming down
I can make you coffee with my nespresso.
but yeah this is crazy
Go to your TV settings and kick anyone connected to it. I think you can password lock TVs too?
I can't go to settings. This thing dominates the tv and won't let me select anything.
right
That's...not supposed to be a thing
It's on this pothead screen 24/7
mmm smart technology
The screen never changes
if you disconnect the tv from the hubthing, does it let you go to settings then?
Or remove the tv from your allowed connections on the wifi
I'm listening to the channel I'm on like normal. But i get this visual shit
or it doesn't even boot like that?
That's not Bluetooth, that's a damn virus or bug π
No. It jumps back on immediatly
I got dancing polkadots
and you can't get to the hub thing because its locked
Did Russia hack me? They got my email in 2016
Max Headroom is back
Well i have the key but the tech never showed me how to unlock it
wb!
This all sounds like your TV is either bugged or hacked, cuz even my cheap af Roku TV doesn't do any of the shit you're saying
hmm. eheh - well, i guess i shouldn't give you any crazy ideas.
Yea I wonder now honestly. It's been 3 weeks
Lol you can turn the key in the lock. But there is a funny mechanism to go with it.
The connect 4 tech replaced the box already and is positive it's not that.
Honestly I'm leaning toward bug, because there is no way that a TV doesn't give you access to its controls. Home button on your TV's remote is supposed to remove you from any app you currently have running and take you to the home screen
Any chance you can get a video on your phone?
It's like my tv has the will to rave
Sure
if it's a bug with the software, either on the tv or on the box, then it will be in all of those models that shipepd with that sw version
Is it like attract mode or something?
Also you need a samsung remote for this funky screen
Not the xfinity remote
And my xfinity remote doesn't have a home button
How y'all have a smart TV that's dumber than my low-end one, why tf doesn't the remote have a home button π
So i got a crazy update
what happened?
I unplugged it this time. Normally i lose all sound. I did not lose the sound this time.
What
soundwaves
the plot thickens
Your TV is a giant tablet then, tf do you mean it works when it's unplugged π
Y'all secretly time traveled and brought back the biggest tablet you could find π
Than it turns itself back to tv And goes back to como-tt
And sometimes I get a red dot and it says could not connect to como-tt. And othertimes it does connect
The video won't let me post. Probably too big
Every time it loads up the dots change
I'm not high I swear
Did a ghost move into my tv?
Like I said sentient tv
It turned on all by itself again
@shadow tartan 9 second video
Well this is new. I haven't seen this before.
Than it goes right back to the visuals
It's gonna be a garbage tv pretty soon.
Could be something as simple as a signal coming in stronger than your own transmitter or as devious as a connection through your local network
Dad felt like this is a connect 4 problem since they setup the whole house after it was built. And the touch screen on the house wall syncs to the tv
He hasn't called comcast about it.
Dad sounds correct. A smart house....sounds like a horrible idea.
Like the first day connect 4 showed us the tv controls from the house wall
The touchscreen is by our front entrance
I refuse to buy smart tech myself. No blue tooth...it's too easy to pair with hackable systems
I understand
People hijack my sisters headphones when she flies for work via bluetooth
I remember when everyone got so worried about people getting their kids chipped by RFID tags with transponder tags...but they don't seem to care that very same technology is stuck in all of their cards and can be read by any douche bag with a cheap scanner for their details enough to spoof their ID
Now some people are worried about tracking chips in their covid vaccines from Bill Gates instead lmao
Even today colleges still promote LinkedIn, another sharing service as some haven for job seekers, all the while ignoring the hundreds even thousands of fake employers on it that use it to phish for personal info
Amyways, I'll ask dad to call connect 4 tomorrow and send the tech back out
Yea I was pressured to do linked in by my sales manager at work once
He was grooming me to be more professional
The number and variety of types of hacks in the information age is absolutely incredible
We got people who literally spoof car keys now and steal hundred thousand dollar cars with $12 technology
Keyless entry using the very same RFID tech
They don't even have to spoof the car owners keys. They can spoof a manufacturers key
Yea
Those are skeleton keys
This tv is over my head tonight. I'll let dad call the tech tomorrow for service.
Because the smarter technology gets, the dumber humans get and the dumber humans get, the dumber their choices get...and you get a feed-back loop.
Imagine needing to know how to smelt your own metal to make a stove in this day and age.
Imagine not having removable batteries and needing your phone to run out just to make it reboot and work.
Smort.
My Nokia bar phone never hung.
I'm guessing that you're using an iphone
Hell, even the galaxy phones are getting shit now
iPhones came with Android? News.
Yea. I should let the batteries die before i charge the remote to full maybe and see if that resets anything
I do that on eso and ffxiv already
Both Iphone and Samsung phones now push updates that drain your battery more, forcing higher CPU use
Yea
Next time...get a real TV...not a 'smart' one.
Dad bought it. He's the controlfreak with money spending. Wasn't me
I mean...don't update?
You can get a normal TV and connect via some third party pluggable networking stick if you really want it to be "smart"
My total condolences.
I mean, realistically your smart TV is probably logging all of your viewing habits to sell to advertisers
Actually...I like all my devices to be non-internet.
Every single one.
My parents got into a fight already over sending this back lol. Mom wants to replace it. Dad refuses
He wants this specific tv and wants it to work
Tell your dad his TV is spying on him for the NSA.
What features does he want to work or is it a money problem?
I thought cable was for advertising?
Or leaflets?
Or bill-boards?
Where money is a concern, as a male, if I spent a lot....getting rid of expensive thingamajig would be difficult for me, too
Not spending helps.
It took me months to build up the nerve to sell my VR system
Cable tv with xfinity. For his sports and my mother's shows. We have a disney plus and netflix account on our tv also
Plus the on demand movies and stuff
I thought Disney and Netflix and others can be watched on PC and smart-phones?
Sounds like the TV came with a whole subscription service
Right, I forget the classical American sub-urban life stereo-type.
Couch life.
Everything on the couch.
Can't get up.
We were using the old tv for boba fett before we moved. In Hd
Not a fair criticism. They are a family
Some families actually sit and watch tv together
We had them running on the old tv before we moved
You can do that on a PC too?
Just hook up a projector/large screen!
Well we usually all sit and watch tv in 3 different rooms lmao it's rare to sitdown together
The tv is a pc
Shame.
We have like 27 HD TV's split between 4 houses in 3 states
Nice going. Ya ruined the justification for keeping the tv
So why did he buy that huge TV?
And this is the first smart tv
TV never had any justification (except for a few rare things).
Cuz now he wants his sports in the living room
After we moved
They decided when we moved to get literally new everything. From beds and furniture to tv's
Confused. Were sports only available in the kitchen before?
What a waste...
damn imagine having it like that
So I get his old tv upstairs now for my xbox one and ps3
I know right? It caused more problems than it's worth
Let me guess...Dad's idea?
Their money. Their choice.
I mean they summer in Maine on the lake. And winter on a golf course in Arizona. They're currently building a home in AZ
when people have too much money its wasted lmao
And this home is in MA
That's the mentality that does cause quite a few problems.
Choice...is a problem.
Many, if not most, times.
The first smart tv. And it's gone bonkers
I thought smart tech evolved from 10 years ago
It was almost the same here...till I recommended no.
That's called 'devolution'...
Lol
Our friend had the origonal smart home up the road from us years ago. It was constantly breaking
This always applies. Always.
Well when you move into a neighborhood like this you don't get a choice. The whole neighborhood is factory built like an assembly line.
Every home is the exact same. Same connect 4
That's because you're the product...and human society is the factory.
Thank the Industrial Revolution for that.
And companies make a killing off housing development.
Too smart to stay in one piece.
It's like humans...only less evolved.
this world is just so fucked
Humans think they're smart...and they keep breaking themselves.
more like the people in the world
They made this world.
(replying to myself)
Self-victimized.
We had like 15 things on the checklist for them to warranty fix after we moved in. From the wrong french doors installed in the office when dad paid extra. And big holes in my bathroom wall from how they installed my door
Still, no. Humans have the propensity to modify their environments...
If they go...they are taking the world with them.
So yea...world's fucked.
Wait...what are 'French' doors?
Do they greet you in French when you're near?
If I had the inclination and the money, I'd split my land in two and have a second house built on my property and use it for social services as a low income lot ensuring the costs for rent never exceeded the maintenance and running of the property - Then I'd start a NGO and register it so I wouldn't have to pay taxes on my property anymore.
Never played Minecraft, so still confused.
Also lowe's fucked up iur blinds. They were 3 weeks wait. Than the guy attempted to install and determined the windows were measured wrong last October
I couldn't get into minecraft
I didn't find the story in minecraft very compelling
Well...that's luxurious.
Neither could I.
I'm all for pixels, but only due to low quality...not as default mode.
I might try it again one day. It has a cult following
Not as smooth as it should be, eh?
The survive or die thing early on sort of freaked me out as a teen when I thought it was a building simulator
Congratulations...you got a broken window!
Lol
You know...this reminds me of I, Robot.
Oh they had to replace brand new windows they installed also.
One didn't line up with the window next to it.
I mean the trim or whatever it's called where it separates the two panes so you can open
The cabinets needed some doors replaced. They were installed slanty
The list goes on
They rush to build make their money and move on to a new neighborhood
Broken assembly line.
It actually pays more to have it broken to start with. More money for repairs.
Dad bought the tv himself tho. I believe at BJ's
Funny, ain't it? Men usually make all the decisions and most of them are wrong.
Like I said...tell him his TV's spying for the NSA.
Lol
So my nespresso machine has bluetooth even. And I haven't tried connecting it to my phone yet
One more thing to break
Oh no! It's back!

There is an app you can use for your phone to control your coffee machine
I thought that's what my hands were for?
You want super cursed come play on my tv
It needs you to hit the lever and button in morse code like fashion to input commands already
That's, uh...moronic.
I really hate 'smart' shit.
Think our fancy samsung tv wins most cursed of the year
Screen-saver?
Why do the windows at the side of the TV look differently-sized?
Or is that part of the 'design'?
Yes
Toll brothers cookie cutter design
Every house in this neighborhood has those windows
I thought at first it might be because of the angle...left is slightly closer...
Oh...not that way...
I took the pic at an angle
I mean the window to the left of the TV looks bigger than the window to the right.
Even then...they both look different.
Same shape and similar size, but...somehow, looking different.
Also lowe's said the blinds are too long for the tiny windows so they will warp over time
I'm so confused....Moistcritikal is talking today about prolapsed anuses brought to us by Howie Mandel
That's if some burglar doesn't get in through one of those first.
Right window definitely looks a bit shorter...
Lmao i bet it is.
Dad can measure when he gets home and deal with it.
But it's far too late to fix.
I wonder...when our buildings finally go up for re-development...maybe in the next 30-50 years...will we get the same crap?
So the first windows had the top of the bottom pain not lining up in a line. They were different heights on the wood. It was more obvious outside as they painting the trim black outside white inside.
There's a weirdo in your window...RUN!
This house has been a comedy
Night time reflections are so unflattering lol
Are you reflecting on reflections?
Those are called legs.
Wait...those are pants, right?
Please no.
I don't want to see a nude guy in a reflection.
It's not a nude guy
Also reflecting on what the actual F como-tt is
He's not selling a mirror on EBAY
e-Commerce is over-rated.
Shorts lol. And my neighbor said they don't use their blinds and he walks around in the nude at night. And than he died a few weeks later.
"Died"...interesting way of putting that.
He fell down the stairs with dimentia i believe.
That's...a weird horror story.
Like we found out two weeks after moving in from the builder.
Once upon a time my neighbor doesn't have blinds and walks around naked oh and he died....Dude. Think ya missed the lead there.
Wait a minute...how do you fall off due to dementia?
Well maybe a stroke also. Idk
Or maybe a ghost.
I wouldn't begin to ask the wife. I feel so sad for her. She refuses to sleep in the house since he died outside their bedroom door.
You yadda yadda yadda'd the good part.
Was horrible
Thank you Grimm
Speaking of Grimm. They have a HUGE library of stories.
So...she doesn't live there?
So does the Reaper.
More stories than the Grimms.
I doubt it.
Well...at that age...normal to die.
In this state over 55 community means retired and over 70 or 80 for a lot of people.
The brothers Grimm wouldn't have the stories the Grim Reaper would have...
It's not as bad as FL
After all...the latter applies to everyone.
Given the grim reaper does not exist and the brothers grimm actually did, I disagree
Death doesn't exist? That's news.
Death is not a being.
Interesting...65 here...age of retirement, that is.
Different perspectives...and one never knows.
Well...no one can retire.
You can only tire once.
lol
Then you're already tired.
"I NEED NEW TIRES!"
And can't retire.
No, those are 'tyres'.
And you need 4 of them for a car.
Big ones.
Monster-truck big.
Then you can drive using those tyres over all the tired-old drones in their cars.
Being an over 55 community everyone has iphones. So all the connect 4 tech is apple. I moved in with an android phone and they told me they have no clue how to connect my phone to the house.
So dad wants me to get an iphone
Broken eyes...re-make the world rather than fix eyes...
Great logic.
iPhones are over-rated.
Eh my whole family went apple. I went samsung
Pete Davidson is weird

I got a JBL speaker with my ticket to tomorrowland. So that is the only bluetooth I use right now.
Noice!
What 'tomorrowland'?
And I use it when I stream radio off youtube. Like Armin Van Buuren every Thursday
Music festival in Belgium
You wanna talk tech? Go to an EDM festival

I, uh...live in a country that's literally the place of one genre of trance, but...never been able to go to any music festival.
Not that I would...I hate crowds.
Not a wire-less person...except for Wi-Fi, but that's different.

Which country?
India. And Goa Trance.
Oh nice
I have not listened to much of it outside of Bollywood
I listen to Hardstyle, trance, progressive and psy-trance like vini vici
I think some Goa ends up on my yoga programs tho
I totally hate Bollywood, so apart from all old (and some rare new) songs with actual meaning, most of it is shit.
I mean India is kinda famous for Yoga and Astrology
I know what you mean. All the modern pop culture from that to BTS
It's modern...that's usually what makes it shit.
Being popular is just icing on the cake.
Well...were born here.
I should be in the fry channel. I love indian food. I cook it at home even.
Damn, really?
Know what's weird? We have to go to the basement to inset a blu-ray disk if we want a movie. Or a dvd
I'm probably the only white boy in my state who has spent covid researching and understanding Indian, Sichuan, Japanese and Thai culinary techniques
you don't know
He's too busy mumbling malarkey to know.
Lol
What...the hell...is that even?
And why that design of having to go down there to play a disc?
You looking to be a cook?
The media center in the basement. With xfinity cable box, connect 4 and the dvd player
Ask toll brothers
They designed the house like this
They need some education in interior designing.
Real education.
The onus is not upon me to prove a negative.
As a hobby and for entertaining. But it helps me travel from home currently and connect to the world.
Not a career path
For a negative to exist, there must be acknowledgement of thee existence of a positive.
I was saying you won't know until you die
Toll brothers shouldn't touch tech. Stick to construction and get the windows right
If you say the Grim Reaper doesn't exist...you do believe in the Reaper, else you would ask 'What's the Reaper?' rather than flat-out refuse his existence.
Don't fear the reaper
Judging by those mis-constructed windows...they really shouldn't be in the business at all.
Better off doing what their name says...collecting toll.
I still can't believe 2 small and one large window is actually a design decision.
I think they develop homes across the US. More of a get rich quick scheme
It's complicated. But they couldn't find another home in the area they liked. And the move is partially because of a lack of privacy with the old house. And having neighbors that stalk you to gossip for other neighbors
And they'd make up lies about all the neighbors for attention.
I guess retirement is boring
You know...it's not like all the 'smart' shit is better than the 'lack of privacy/nosy neighbours'...
Instead of neighbours gossiping, now you've got multi-billion USD corporations doing it.
Instead of neighbours spying, you've got technology for that.
At least with neighbours, you know it's just a limited area of leakage.
World's simple...we humans are busy complicating it and becoming a cosmic joke.
Fun.
Oh, well...at least you can entertain yourself with all the problems.
how did y'all start talking about the Grim Reaper anyway?
He mentioned the brothers Grimm...and I dragged the Reaper.
Grimm vs. Grim.
Well I sort of started that π
I'm still wondering...did you actually wear pants, or nothing?
I hope I don't anger people but that brothers grim movie (I don't know the name) was pretty good
Shorts. To my knees
Lmao
There was a movie?
It was decent. Kinda long too. But yes. The one with Matt Damon right?
I swear, their colour and your skin's are so similar!
They're pink.
Iight
I could dm you the nudes. But nope lol
I'm totally straight, so...yea, better not.
Anyways. The tv is off for the night
I'm making it dad's problem tomorrow to call a repair tech
Worked?
I think
I don't remember...
