Any Star Trek fans that have watched the last couple or few years of episodes remember how many times someone in the episodes ask the computer a question and received a somewhat logical answer. I recently, within the last week or two, started using an AI app on my phone and iPad. I find it very...

I know I should be asking this question in November…🙂 One issue I have with the ladder chains on my R4 tires is that a good portion of the chain falls down between the tire lugs and serves little purpose. I remember my neighbor ran his chains very loose on his R1 tires. Loose enough, that they...

Hi Guys, I’d very much like to buy cheap wheel spacers off of eBay like I did for my BX 2200, but I don’t think that’s easily done, if even possible. This is for my B2910. I remember there were two American made products available. One I think bolted directly on, and the other one if I...

The weight of foam filled tires comes up frequently. Here’s a chart showing a number of different tire sizes and what they weigh when they are foam filled. For the BX 26– 12– 12 weight is 120 pounds each for the rear tires…

I guess this is an off-the-wall question, but I sometimes have off-the-wall thoughts… Could I set things up somehow so that my grave could be on my land, and the land somehow be considered protected as a cemetery-type situation. I don’t care, if this would be possible, how it might affect the...

Thanks to Hagrid in another thread...I wonder why a grapple is not a gripple? Gripple seems more descriptive and intuitively correct... Gripper maybe even more so... For example, a similar device for an excavator is called a thumb. Seems like gripple would be appropriate in either case...

,,,Of what we read on the news and internet: From the Japanese NHK website: Misleading or false information surrounding Monday's earthquake in Ishikawa Prefecture, central Japan, has gone viral on social media. Some posts claim the quake was artificially generated. Who out there can generate...

Do you have any funny stories you cannot share because you fear someone who knows you might discover them? Here's mine: (________________________________________________________________) I actually do have one....but I guess I am shooting for the Guinness world record for the first documented...

I was born in my Grandmother's bedroom. Was just after WW2, apparently no beds available for normal deliveries... How about you? Anything interesting in your life? Mine is only possibly interesting because times have changed somewhat...maybe not interesting at all really...interesting to me...

Just curious...I know I have some...probably the main one right now is... ...calling a vendor to ask a question, and after fighting my way through an automated system that has no intelligence, I finally end up with a person that speaks English as a third language... ...and I can't understand them!

I just thought about how much I like OTT. Just a nice place with almost everyone being honest and polite AND positive. AND HELPFUL. I am sure I could say more positive things...but expressing myself in ways others could understand was never of much interest to me. Anyway...nice interacting...

You know for the longest time, I never stopped by the Off Topic forum at all. But now I have to admit, the Daily Chuckle thread is the first place I stop at when visiting OTT. Just an admission of guilt I suppose...it is a fun place though... (y) Service, Repair and Maintenance takes second...

I happened to look at the deed description for a piece of property I have that is one of three that are contiguous, and on one deed now. But they have separate lot and block numbers for tax purposes, since they were originally bought as individual properties adjoining our original piece. I for...

I know this is totally off the wall probably, but it is something I have often wondered about over the years...once in a while...not that often. I remember that if countries were the first to set foot on land somewhere, and planted a flag, they could claim that land as their own. I think that...

Found this video to be enjoyable. A New Zealand project from the past but still what it was then...

I have never been whenever you call the people that are interested in organic food and that kind of thing. But I took an interest in organic vegetation killer, and I’ve done my best to make an investment to supply a lot of it to the edge of my back porch deck. I’m happy to report after a...

I just noticed that, for the purpose of calculating the required minimum distribution taken from my IRA, that the IRS expects me to live to be 100! That’s what I always expected too! Man do I hope their projections are accurate! Or even better, that they underestimate!!! :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:

We used one test during the whole Covid period. And over the last three years we probably received at least 56 tests. Actually probably more. At no cost to us but somebody is paying. Over the last six or eight weeks we received 24 more tests. We have not asked for these tests. Medicare pays for...

My BX2200 has never been perfect from day one when I purchased it new. It always wanted to drift a bit when mowing in a straight line. Noticeable over a 100 foot stretch for sure. From when new. Now after 20 years it has gotten progressively worse. I think occasionally I have to turn the...

Sorry, just joking. :LOL: Moment of weakness here. Turned into a pretty nice day though! Peace! (That sounds so anchiet though doesn’t it?) I WOKE up this morning but never could figure out what WOKE means…except in the morning! Poor me I guess…LOL edit: Now if I could just figure out...
