Reason why is because Acura, in their infinite wisdom decided to integrate the stock radio into EVERYTHING, to include climate controls and the top display. I'm happy to discard the stock nav screen as it's outdated, but the radio is needed to keep a lot of functionality with regards to climate controls, specifically with temperature and dual zone stuff, which can only be seen from the top display, which won't work without the factory radio. Also, it's a Bose 10 speaker system, so no aftermarket DSP system isn't gonna do it justice.

For some reason the stock stereo also receives free XM radio, so there's also that...

LOL, yeah that improves the taste. I'm the same way with stuffed cabbage. I can stomach a little, but totally after what's inside lol.

Dang Ohio, you were spot on with the cumin and lime. Cilantro on the grocery list ..under basil. Thought for sure I had that already.

Just the cumin and lime helped the rice quite a bit.

Yea, I kind of missed that on purpose.

Didn't want all the teasing to damage you in some way.

Is that the new house or are you still looking ?

I hope the new PC that I'm putting together renders videos quicker. I forgot why I got sick of using a GoPro for video.

Got another piece of the puzzle today. I got the PCIe card to run an NVME SSD on it. I'll run programs and the OS off of that. I have a Hitachi 4TB drive that I'll put in it too, then I also stuck a WD Black 1TB drive in there already. Put that in there to run "current project files". I have 32GB of RAM that should be here Monday according to USPS. I'll see how it runs, then probably acquire more.

I'll probably put it downstairs and build a pedestal for it on my network wall. I'll access it via RDP or something.

Wonder if my BP is low due to going cold turkey off caffeine....(pop and coffee). Been a little over a month now. Does that sound crazy or plausible? I'll have to bring that up Monday with the cardiologist.

Drinking water, lemon water, some sugar free flavored water, almond milk and orange juice with breakfast for the last month. I can do without, but man that craving is still there.

I remember one time i was at a dinner with some friends, when the one guy at that table asked, "If you had to give up either alcohol or coffee..." and everyone, in unison, cut him off and said "Alcohol!".

You've got some major willpower.
