Post a *PIC* of your latest purchase

I have a sleep eight and I would rank it as one my best purchases ever. My wife's jaw hit the floor when I told her how much it cost when I first bought it but now she'll tell people all the time how worth it is. If you can afford it it's really hard to put a price on a great night sleep, especially for this aging crowd.

 

Tempur-Pedic actually owns Stearns & Foster and they use the Tempur-Pedic foam

 

Price dropped $500 today and Tempurpedic is giving me the runaround about honoring the new price. Hasn't even shipped yet.

 

Have friends with similar experience with Sleep 8 - need to just pull the trigger

 

Try CBD if you can’t afford a new mattress

 

We have a Saatva mattress and I sleep like a baby

 

Doesn’t really fix the back/neck issues shitty mattresses will cause

 

that's what THC is for

 

I want one of these for my next mattress - https://www.hastens.com/us/beds?_gl...id=0AAAAAC-YE-mY3-yV-j7TI5yx5ql7qhFH4#vividus

 

Is there a consensus for best performance polo in terms of wrinkle freeness and collar that doesn't turn into soft bacon?

 

Greyson. I just bought one from my club and Its lovely with a super stiff collar.

 

Holderness and Bourne or some of the new Johnnie O

 

I've never worn this brand. How do they hold up against wrinkles? I feel that's the one knock on these performance polos vs traditional cotton. Cant iron the wrinkles out of them.

 

H&B has taken over my closet. The tailored fit plus collar with sewn in stays are perfect, and I have some that are several years old at this point that are holding up great

 

I bought like 6 Coastal Cotton performance polos this summer. Been loving them

Need a new pair of slides for the pool/beach. Any comfortable ones TMB recommends?

I just got these and love them. I’ve had tons of different slides but these are my favorite. The ridges on the inner sole not only feel good but they actually help you “grip” when your foot is wet so you don’t slip out.

How do they run? Size up or down? I'm an 11.5 in Nike.

 

Go true to size. I went with a 12 and they’re perfect. Not a bad price point at $50 either.

 

Do Lululemon ABC pants run true to size? Guessing I'll need to size up.

 

For me they always have

 

I fucked up and didn’t realize they didn’t come in half sizes. What did you go with? If anything it’s Nike so you can always just exchange them.

 

12, if I remember correctly they run small.

 

I wear a 12 and the 12 fit me fine. I would rather go up a half size than down like you did based on how your foot fits into the contours of the sole.

 

I’ve always imagined these are the shoes this guy has on

 

I have to admit, calling your company "coastal cotton" and then choosing to sell very few products made from 100% cotton is a good bit

 

everyone's being a cunt about it but they are cheaper than many of the other similar brands and the shirts look and feel great.

 

Speaking of collared shirts, I have noticed a significant decline in the quality of plastic button on most new button downs RE cracking or disintegrating when dry cleaned.

 

I'm sure they're fine man, it's just a funny name given their offerings

 

And I think something needs to be done about it at the highest levels of government.

 

That dude wears crocs

 

Hey dudes for sure

 

Charles Tyrwhitt has been the primary offender, at least for me. Along with Faherty. Maybe it’s my dry cleaner though.

But I have a 20-year-old Polo that’s been dry cleaned a million times and the buttons are still there, so IDK

 

Brooks Brothers dress shirts last me maybe 3-5 years and start to degenerate. I'm not sure if that is better than the average life span of a mid to upper mid tier dress shirt.

 

Just got these. Have the grey one and love wearing it over a polo. Got them with a discount

 

Anyone know about IR repeaters and the like? I have a ceiling mounted projector that I always have to angle the remote up to like a dope. I'd like to fix it but am a little lost. Two things I've seen mentioned:

• My projector has a 3.5mm IR out. Could I just get an emitter and dangle it underneath the unit to have a more direct line of sight?
• I also saw this (https://a.co/d/eW6XtxV), which has a receiver and an emitter. I'm having a hard time understanding if it would repeat the correct IR device, since nothing is connected to the projector.

 

in theory if it has an IR out port you can connect a blaster and point in the right direction and it should work but I’ve had problems before. Not to say it won’t work but you might need to try a few different approaches until you get something that does work. Mostly what I have experience with is using an IR receiver which then passes signal to blasters for receivers and such that are in an AV closet.

that USB solution looks like it might work. basically it doesn’t matter what the receiver gets, signal wise, as the IR codes are specific to each device so it just blasts that IR code and only your intended device should respond since no other device speaks that language

 

are you just turning the projector on/off or do you need to control the volume and other stuff?

A trigger input thingy would solve the on/off part but if you need to other stuff like adjusting the volume and what not then that's more complicated. Not sure if your projector has one.

Like for instance, I have a trigger input on both my receiver and amplifier that turns both on at the same time.

 

Carl Brutananadilewski - thanks, I'll try that cheap usb fella and see what happens. I wish harmony hadn't stopped making remotes... I'd just get an elite and call it a day. Seems like the sofabaton is the closest thing but it gets pretty rough reviews

southlick just off/on but unfortunately my avr doesn't have a powered trigger.

 

I'm bored so I started watching this.


They had this in there https://emotiva.com/products/et-3-t...yzLsZp1Cct2YU_BFI56BGUl1a5WHZqvHTC5pbCTC8QWCB

This dude used it on his entertainment center where his receiver had no trigger out.

Might help.

 

That's pretty neat and way cheaper than I would have guessed. My projector already has that cable run to where my avr is

 

Hey dudes weren’t out when that episode came out

 

They were invented because that’s the shoes that someone like that would wear.
