    XFINITY Mobile vs Verizon

    The time has come for me to ditch AT&T. I originally had Verizon but had to switch about 10 years ago because I had no service at work or home at the time. Now I spend a lot of times in the mountains. I lose service around 5k feet elevation. My friends with Verizon still have LTE at close to...

    Image Host?

    So I found a work-around to the size limit that usually prevents uploading modern cell phone pics. I just take a screen shot on my phone and post that. But sometimes I want to post the full image. What's a good image hosting site that is free and easy to use that doesn't require creating an...

    Gloomhaven

    I just heard about this. It's sounds like someone figured out how to make Skyrim into a totally analog board game. Has anyone played? I want to try it but it's a big up front cost for a game my family might not even enjoy. I like the long timeline aspect though. Keep your character and advance...

    Donate Car?

    I'm stuck with a stupid problem. My '01 Accord was wrecked and totaled by the other insurance. I kept it because my brother in law wanted it, but its a god damned pain in the ass to get a frickin salvage title. After having the lights and brakes inspected (and putting on new front rotors and...

    DIY Car AC Recharge

    Do those cans you get at the parts store work? I recently bought a '97 Honda and the AC could only be rated at "coolish." Not gonna cut it as summer gets going.

    Bmw z3/4?

    Well, my Accord got smashed and it's time to look for a new commuter. I've always wanted a roadster type car. The closest I've gotten was a del Sol, which I still regret selling. I considered a Miata, but I'd like a bit more power since it'll be about all freeway travel, not so much railing...

    Discouraging drivers from exchanging information?

    I was involved in a car accident last week. PD showed up nice and fast and were overall very professional and helpful. Except when I tried to get the other drivers' information. The officer was pretty adamant about it not being necessary for us to exchange info, that it'll all be in his report...

    Hell yeah, new Ducati garage!

    There's a new Ducati shop in Modesto. It makes me happy to think I won't have to truck my bike to the Bay Area for service, now. I think I'll ride down there on Monday and see if they'll be able to do the valves and everything on my poor neglected M900. Anyone know anything else about this...

    Kombucha Homebrewing?

    Well, at $4+ per bottle, my kombucha habit is killing me. So I got a slime starter from a coworker and my first batch is 10 days old and looking pretty good. Has about 1/4" new slime layer on top, no funky smells. I made a gallon to start. But I just stuck to the basics and used black tea. I...

    SF Giants 2018

    Good opening game! Lots of hits off Kerahaw and Blach and the defense played great. Nice to see Strickland not suck, too. I hope the offseason additions pay off. They're at least built like a good team. But, they've been, so time will tell.

    Kratom?

    :gsxrgrlI keep hearing more and more about this stuff. Anyone have any firsthand knowledge about it? Sounds like a promising step toward freedom from opioids addiction, which makes the FDA and DEA targeting it perfectly logical. I've also heard it helps with focus, and relaxation. :dunno

    Watching your kids doing rough sports

    How do you handle it? Our 12 year old is in his second year of wrestling and I thought we have been pretty good about not helicoptering, but today was different. At the state qualifier tournament he went up against a kid who was way bigger (not sure how since ours was 96.8 to qualify for the 97...

    Post your pumpkin carvings!

    Didn't see one for this year. If there is one please merge. Here's my first. I cheated and used an internet template.

    Class Time: Mini Cooper

    Looking to maybe replace my commuter. So far it looks like a used Mini would be good. Good MPG, sporty handling, easy to park. They're cheaper than I thought. What are some of the traps to look out for? Is there a particularly shitty year or trim or option I should avoid? I don't really care...

    What the hell happened? How did so many fires start at the same time? Hope our NorthBay BARFers are safe. Please check in here. http://www.sfgate.com/news/amp/2-big-wildfires-prompt-evacuations-in-Napa-County-12262945.php

    Bird Hunting

    Any BARFers into bird hunting? I'm pretty excited for this year since Gomer is all finished with his formal training. I have a soft lead on some private land (need to confirm formal permission) for dove, and will likely sample the various NorCal clubs for pheasant. I've also got a few spots with...

    American Gods Season 1

    Anyone else watch this? I never heard of it but I loved McShane in Deadwood so I watched the pilot. Pretty cool, kind of reminds me of Preacher. Anyone familiar with the story, without providing spoilers, do you think it'll be good?
