Found a nice laser radar gun on the road today. Plastered with "Property of xxx police department" "Property of Ohio State Highway Patrol" etc stickers on it... Powered on and had power, but gave errors when I tried to get an actual speed reading. Probably got damaged when it fell off the patrol car. I took it back to the local PD and said "You guys need to stop leaving your toys on the road." The woman behind the glass said "You found that on the ROAD?" Hehe, someone had a bad day. My daughter asked me why I called it a toy.

some texas redneck posted:Got a quote to remove the tint from the whole car - $85. Just buy a steamer for less than that and do it yourself, then you have a steamer, too. http://www.ebay.com/itm/ULTRA-STEAM-SHARK-II-HARD-SURFACE-STEAM-CLEANER-EP908-EURO-PRO-X-/331608660700?hash=item4d356a9adc That's what I have. It worked on 20-year old tint on the MR2, 4 year old tint on the Juke, 10 year old tint on a truck and 3 year old tint on an Acura. The more you take the tint off, the easier it gets, but it's really no more complex than "hit it with steam, then slowly peel." Keep the steam mostly on the dry side and it comes off clean.

Sigma X posted:I just made an appointment half an hour ago to have all-round tint put on my Fiesta and it's $355 for ceramic tint. I realize that prices change based on the market, but... your budget tint joint where they use dyed plastic film might be $99, but it's more for anything approaching quality film by a quality installer. And quality ceramic film is worth the money. I've got all (!) the windows of my house tinted with a nice ceramic for UV rejection / heat mitigation and not only does it make a huge difference (it kinda messes with your mind, you see light pouring in from a wall of windows, but if you stand in the light, it's not warm, it's just light), it has held up to a lot of dog/kid/etc impact and other nonsense with no problems... not even a scratch yet and it's been ~7 years.

Sigma X posted:Oh, I know. I know. I've used Huper Optik ceramic in several of my other cars and it's always been great; there's just no installers for that brand in the area. Nothing beats it for UV and heat rejection. I wish they could make it clear with the same efficacy, I'd put it on every window. I've got Geoshield Iris 70 and it is almost transparent. The only way you can tell it's tinted at all is when I have the sliding glass door open and you look through 2 panes of tinted glass and you can tell if you look critically. It's not something anyone has noticed that's been in the house... but it does help block heat.

some texas redneck posted:Like I want to be using a steamer when the projected highs for the next week are nearly 110. At least the (decent) shops have air conditioned shops. I don't even have a garage I can pull into. My a/c is ice loving cold and can easily freeze my nipples off, but I think the steamer (and having the doors open) would offset that a bit. Okay, then go throw money at someone who will profit by doing the easy work you're too lazy to do, Mr. Moneybags.

Cricket right now, going on a camping trip in a couple weeks in a remote area, so I'll probably use the second SIM slot for a prepaid sim that works in the area.

Slow is Fast posted:Interested to see how you like it. I've had a broken screen on my galaxy 4 for a year and want to move onto something newer with a better camera. I think I'll just get a galaxy 5 or 6, but I'm open to other options. I don't like it, it's going straight back. I like the form factor. I don't like the build quality, it feels like cheap plastic. I don't like the screen brightness or color rendition -- side-by-side with my Nexus 5 the ZF2 is less bright and much more dull. I don't like the ASUS, speaker and home buttons in reflective chrome. Basically, I went from a Nexus 4 to a Nexus 5 and I'm spoiled on the polished, quality feel of the Google units. I also have a Nexus 7 (2013), and there is absolutely a familial feel to the three. Looks like I'm just going to wait until Google announces the N5 (2015) and hope that it comes in under $400... Rumors are that they are going to announce an LG N5 and another brand's new N6 at the same time. That'd drop the price of the current N6 and that thing is really pretty... meatpimp fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Aug 14, 2015 |

That's not rural, and you were at well more than half throttle. If you get pissed off enough to rage about that, you'd never make it driving in Ohio.
