Re: Two dead surge protectors?

Have also determined that more than 18 LED bulbs in the house are now at ~half brightness or less and likely can't be salvaged. Update: Oddly these are all back to normal a day later. I have no clue what's going on there. My guess is, whatever happened, caused your section of the power grid to be a...

If it does have a fuse it is sealed inside the unit and not replaceable. The basic GFCI type reset isn't helping it.

Two dead surge protectors?

Anyone ever had a surge protector die when the power comes back on after an outage? We had the power go out (entire house) for about 2 minutes this morning. When it came back on, two of my single pole breakers popped in the box. Went and flipped them back. Power came back on to the outlets but in ea...

Re: Old NDL is now defunct

I ran a season with the file offline. WF made the finals - so now I know the whole league was rigged.

Of course we lost to Hollywood, but how is one to overcome a team with a $200M+ payroll?

Yeah, I got you man. I don't think people like her stick around after they feel like they've done all they can somewhere. Was on top of the world after the 2019 GoW game - but people with her personality type need to continue to challenge themselves.

Re: College Football Thread

There's been some very good games since Wednesday.

I enjoyed the Duke game but I'm biased. But, the Kansas-Arkansas game was great and Oregon- UNC was very good.

Oklahoma-FSU was very good Thursday.

And Pitt-UCLA was good yesterday.

I see she is a co-founder of Luda. https://ludaprojects.com/ Yeah, but I have no clue what they are or what they do. I think she could have hung around with Sony (SMS) longer, but I believe the Google offer for the Stadia position was quite lucrative. And, it sounded like it was a minimum number of...

Re: Joe's Retreat

Joseph, the Rangers are never winning a Stanley Cup ever the fuck again. Sorry. Who dis? The Devils have won 13 in a row. Don't ask me how. I am going to lose just under $1,000 on them on two bets (not make the playoffs and under 89.5 points) I saw that. I haven't read whether this makes any sense ...

Re: Qazhby Builds A PC

I think the only question you need to answer for your keyboard/monitor is whether you do wireless or not. I think there is a lot of benefit to wireless just to avoid the extra USB cables and make it easier to manage, but some people don't like to deal with replacing batteries (I just run rechargeabl...

Re: College Football Thread

Every 2 years you get the most recent "A" version phone. It's $15 a month and includes the device protection. Since device protection runs ~$6 a month, you're effectively getting that new phone for $216 every 2 years. I couldn't find a cheaper way to buy a new phone every two years and I'...
