I get it. FB has automated the ban bot, but it is way too sensitive and as such has a ridiculously high false positive rate.

Sure, posting a semi-topless photo of Salma Hayek to group of fellow single dads while discussing the hottest celeb was poorly thought out. I got 24 hours for that last year.

Maybe saying to someone "Settle down, fatty" during a heated 'discussion' about politics was in bad taste. That earned me 72 hours, which I agreed with. My apologies, I had a weak moment of aggravation.

But now I'm nearing the end of a 7 day ban for posting a line from Ice Ice Baby, in a discussion about Vanilla Ice visiting our area. Someone started a thread meant to recite the whole song, st

I have the larger Masterbuilt electric smoker and I'm reading conflicting advice regarding smoking this big bastard. One thing I've read is to spatchcock it and I will for sure be doing that.

But is 20lbs too large? Most of what I'm reading is to start the bird in the smoker and then finish in the oven, but that doesn't seem right to me.

Thanks in advance for your help!

A friend of mine recently got mixed up in some drug related offenses, being the junky that this person is, and was arrested on 4 charges, one of which was a felony. This person has prior drug related felony prosecutions. Said person took a plea deal from the DA that dropped the felony, but plead no contest to the 3 other misdemeanors in addition to attending 6 months worth of a halfway home based drug offender treatment program, as well as 3 years of drug offender probation after that.

Well, my junky friend made it 5 minutes into their 6 month stay at the halfway house before they jumped the fence and disappeared.

It's probably safe to say that there will be a warrant for their arrest, and

I plan on using a gift of equity to use as a down payment and to pay closing costs on a new mortgage. Is the person that will be gifting me the equity liable to pay taxes on the gift? I know that over 15k has to be reported to the IRS to go against the lifetime maximum of 5.5 million, but I'm seeing mixed answers as to the tax liability question.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I just had an amp and 10" sub installed in my 2000 GMC Sierra. I'm using a Pioneer avh-x391bhs for my head unit.

The sub seems like it has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it hits like it should, then other times it makes little or no sound, only to kick on again randomly at full power, then lose power gradually to nothing again.

The amp is never in protect mode when this occurs.

Could this be an alternator problem? I am new to this so I figured I'd ask the experts.

The setup was installed at a car audio shop.

UPDATE: Was a grounding problem per u/PnwStimm. Found a wrench that wriggled it's way down to the amp power and grounding terminals and was snu

So one of my pieces got nominated for a regional Emmy, in the public service announcement category. Pardon my ignorance, but how big a deal is this? Most of my colleagues are pretty stoked about it, but I guess I'm missing something.
