    Wind Energy in Iowa...Your Thoughts

    How many natural resources are burned (coal, diesel fuel, etc) to make this renewable resource? 335 tons of steel, 4.7 tons of copper, 1,200 tons of concrete to make 1 wind turbine from the numbers I've seen. I'm skeptical about everything though and am far from an expert on the subject. What...

    Men's basketball expectations vs. fan longevity, a conversation

    Some of my earliest memories are of Hornacek launching bombs against Michigan in the tourney in late 80's. Started scalping in front of Hilton with H.S. buddies (RIP Chief) at the end of Johnny's run. Remember sitting in the stands for Freds debut in a preseason game, got tired of all the...

    Prize list (huge), schedule of events, beer tapping info for Saturday's kickoff party

    Beer gets released to much hype, crazy circumstances cause it to disappear suddenly. Exactly like the Chizik era. Perfectly named beer.

    Happy Lefty Day

    Fellow lefty here. There's a bbq team in Omaha called Smokin Lefty's, all lefty's. Personally if you cut off my right hand the only things I wouldn't be able to do are let Jill have her way and throw a frisbee. I did start shooting long rifle's right handed a few years back when I realized I...

    Stolen Q400 Horizon Air Plane

    I have a tinge of sympathy for a guy that hates his monotonous life and doesn't hurt anybody on the way out.

    Madrid Police Chief

    There's been a reputation in the area with that specific group of brothers for 20+ years. I'm sure you're aware and probably get tired of explaining that your not related to them. lol

    Smoked Ribs

    Only thing I'd try different is drop the bbq sauce on the wrap and save for the last unwrapped part of cook. Try this in your next wrap: 3-4 passes of parkay squeeze butter (higher burn point than other liquid butters), little bit of apple juice, about 1/4 cup sugar in the Raw (turbinado...

    Smoked Ribs

    If you're cooking anything close to what's being said in thread, you should get descent ribs. Silly question, but nobody has asked. Are you pulling membrane off the back? That could be explanation for why they seem tough if the meat is cooked properly. I don't know anybody that temps ribs...

    OT - Cutting Cable

    I like your thinking, but I think the minute the content hits your IP, your in possession of it. The content also hits makes a presence in the RAM of your computer. Technically speaking you're in possession of it then. This argument is used when accessing company/private data from a personal...

    RIP CF Mobile

    I use a Rasberry Pi 3. keeps up with my 100mb internet. There is a learning curve with whitelisting. A faster device like the odroid may be able to keep up with faster services.

    RIP CF Mobile

    I'll browse the site this evening from home and look at my DNS logs to see what's blocked. If there are some juicy url's, ill post them for you.

    RIP CF Mobile

    I'll keep running ublock origin on my browsers and PiHole dns at home until CF becomes a pay for ad free. The patreon thing is cool, but i'm still at risk of viruses from the ads on CF if I contribute. I love the site and all, but it's not worth getting ransomware over.

    Worst Iowa Town / City to drive through?

    I couldnt disagree with this more. Carroll is a cluster screw to get through. They attempted to improve things by taking out 2 stop lights for a test study. It worked beautifully and traffic flowed through town loke a dream for a month. Then a city councilwoman took the cause of 3 people that...

    In Memoriam: Ames Business/Restaurants

    Can't believe there haven't been more mentions of Hunky Dory's. Some of the best bands of the 90's rolled through there. Ponchero's on Welch was my 1st, I was drunk from watching ISU/KU bball and absolutely amazed that I could buy a burrito that big. If i remember correctly, I made way too big...
