    No personal experience, but lots of folks here have had what sound like good experiences:
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-starlink-super-mega-bs-thread.709571/
    Had a coworker who was WFH via starlink, reported good quality internet except for a couple hiccups on slack video calls (but not ms teams calls, for whatever reason).

    Never did this before.
    But your post made me check and I realized I'm not wearing pants.
    Currently wearing a set of architectural plans as a makeshift skirt.
    Thanks for opening my eyes.

    Idk why, but working from home formed a habit of forgetting to zip my pants. Fly is always wide open, I just accept it / enjoy the ventilation now.

    Getting emissions done on the Tundra
    Since it has a camper on it, no dyno run on the rollers this time. Curious how it turns out with no load on the engine.

    weight, my van is treated the same way.
    And they now consider the truck to be all wheel drive, they're afraid the front wheels will engage and shoot it out of the bay.
    Funny, because when I first bought the truck, they put it on the rollers. It must have happened at least once for the change to take place.

    Of course the County is no longer doing walk ins for new tags. Gotta do it online now. Wtf are we paying these people for?

    Last year tags were delayed for a long while. I got my call sign as a personalized to avoid paying for the replacement cost when my front tag got stolen. Ended up being the same I think. But it took months for it to arrive and I was worried because the paper one was well past before I got the metal one.

    For fishing a sit-on-top (SOT) is probably best. Sit-In (SINK) is better in cooler weather and if you're more interested in getting where you want to be rather than slowly trolling along. You'll be less wet in a SINK and more in SOT; you'll be more exposed in a SOT and less in a SINK but a SINK gets HOT in the sun unless you have a really wide canopy.

    Oddly, Walmart has a very nice SOT fisher for around $400; less if you order online and opt for the non-fishing equipped version (which I think still has a rod holder). You can customize any kayak with all sorts of accessories as you choose, and they're very often far better than anything you get with a kayak if you buy it as a fishing kayak. The Walmart one, color aside, looks exceptionally like my old Perception, which was much more expensive. IMO if you can find a used one, do that. They all get scratched up and beat on, so there's no sense in wasting money for 10 minutes of pretty.
