Probably the best meal I’ve had on a United flight

Indian Vegetarian meal in PP (EWR - LHR).

Great flavors, the tandoori paneer had a great rub, packed some solid heat, naan was in the foil, and two small gulab jamun. Bordering on something that is restaurant quality.

Went down a treat with the Bells IPA.

Broncos: Enough with the early injury scares, please. My heart is still recovering from all the close games last year.

Does it feel like there are more of these random injury scares this year than last year's training camp? I don't remember us having so many, but maybe I've blocked them out. Overall, the conditioning team and philosophy seem like they have been amazing since SP took over, but I'm seeing lots of little injuries this past week or so.

Is this type of wall allowed in Chicago?

One of the houses on the street adjacent to ours in Lincoln Park just constructed this new wall and closed gate adjacent to the sidewalk. Is this allowed under Chicago guidelines because I’ve never seen anyone else do something like this before?

Is it just me or do Pringles taste like crap now?

I havent had Pringles for about a decade and picked up a small 'original' pack on a whim. I used to LOVE them but these tasted flat and totally underwhelming - did the formulation change over time or is it my evolving tastebuds?

PSA: check your HVAC filters after the smoke last week

Ours were filthy. Old on right, brand new on left.

Is this post from Audio Advice correct? Can you help educate me?

Newbie here, setting up a Cinema 50 with the built-in Audyssey (and maybe eventually Dirac). I was googling around about what to do and came across this link from Audio Advice with instructions on setting up home theaters.

LINK

They suggest a bunch of adjustments (setting Speaker Size and Crossover, Speaker Levels, Speaker Distance Settings) and THEN running room correction software. I thought the point of the correction software was to do some of this automatically (e.g., levels, speaker distance). If I put that stuff in, won't it get overridden by the calibration?

Damn you, other broncos fans

Saw this on Costco (pic 1) and was super excited to buy it and then start work on convincing my wife it should be in our family room. Then I noticed the Denver one is the only one that is sold out (pic 2). Not cool guys, you didn’t leave one for me.

Anyone used MedVet lately (now private equity owned)?

My pup needs to see a urologist - our vet recommended the specialist at MedVet but I am leery given they are PE owned. Anyone used them lately and have feedback on your experiences with them? Or a good experience with a different urologist?

Thanks

This setup that came with my house any good?

Bought a house that had these built in - are they any good? Can’t find much about them online. Two subs, 7.2.2. The L C R are all sun fire, I think there are sonance round ones in the ceiling. Thank you (from a relative uninformed move watcher).

EDIT: Thanks so much, everyone. The receiver (15yr old Marantz) is not working so I dont know how they sound yet. But I will plan on keeping them if they work!
