    The past 16 weeks or so we’ve watched all the Rocky movies and last night finished everything with Creed 3. The whole Rocky saga is really great to watch so close together. There’s a sense of his character growing and going through changes. Individually there are ups and downs, but they’re...

    I just strongly disagree with how bad it was. Which is fine, I’ll read this one too for support of Wight. But man, I really really thought the 1st was trash 😃

    Everything. It read like bad fan fiction or something a teenager would write. It was really astonishing it was the same author it was so bad.

    Cord-Cutting, Or How to Stream your Way to Success

    We tested using Starlink for communications at remote substations that we couldn’t reach with fiber, microwave, or FirstNet. Results were positive as I understand, left prior to the conclusion. We’d like to test it on LMR sites next year and see how it would work. Need to talk to coworker about...

    That is a pretty good deal. I like my Bessy ones, my Jorgensen ones are total crap compared. Constantly lock up. When I got that email early this morning I actually went ahead and bought a set of the small panel clamps to try them out. Am thinking about a couple of smaller project’s and they...

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    Speaking of Halls of Torment; I’m having a good time with Death Must Die but it feels like I’m missing some progression path. Gains between runs are minimal, equipment doesn’t progress much. To be fair I haven’t cleared it yet but have gotten to end a couple of times. Runs get more efficient as...

    Roguelite Enemy Hell/Bullet Heaven/Survivor catch-all

    1. They’re usually cheap 2. Quick runs / matches so not a lot of time investment to make incremental progress 3. Wide variety of art styles, systems, concepts within the genre 4. Due to low financial and time investment it encourages experimenting with builds 5. Low skill cap to insane min/max...

    Furiosa (2024)

    Obviously there will be a cameo where Furiosa saves Mad Max inadvertently / accidentally on purpose / unknowingly where neither character actually meet but we are left feeling safe in the fact that the Hero lives on due to the actions of her. Boom. A Mad Max Saga. On a serious note, I was...

    Speaking of old people… Neighbors are a real nice older couple. We always chat about yard stuff, kids, all the white people stuff. They’re both retired but he still flies his plane and does side job stuff with his company. Veteran. Invited me over to help take apart this very nice, old, $2k...

    I liked moving to Fusion 360 just to prove that I could learn something new. But probably should have just stuck with Sketch Up.

    Home Improvement

    Yeah I’m totally on board with replacing it, we’re 5-7 years still in this house. It was just with the new furnace and we just did the home generator, and additional $10k right now was a little much. Maybe I can shop that part around next year. I guess that isn’t something that the home...

    Furnace Update… We’re going to replace the existing 1995 unit with a Trane S8V2 and larger than the existing 60k BTU to 80k. So along with the dual stage and variable motor maybe we’ll see some improvement with heating upstairs. They also suggested to replace the ductwork because it is all...

    That looks real nice! I still have all the hardware for the Paul Sellers Router Plane kit. Haven’t found the time to make it yet though. I’d feel bad picking this up and not using the hardware I have sitting here.

    I know Rockler has options you can custom configure, such as below. Different shapes, sizes, etc. Being Rockler it, of course, isn’t cheap. I just picked a random link, not that you’re looking for a mitre station. https://www.rockler.com/rockler-rock-steady-miter-saw-stand-kit

    You wouldn't, that's why you take off 90% with that and then do the finish on the sled and don't worry about the surfacing bit getting bogged down. I mean, you can do it all with this... people do it and it is the same as a manual hand plane, just more aggressive. But I've tried to use it for...

    You could consider a belt sander or electric hand planar? I'm notoriously bad with both tools and ruin things more than fix them, but have seen YouTube videos of people proficient knocking down a lot of rough stuff and finishing off with the surfacing bit. Hell, I hate my electric planar so...

    The Broken Empire Trilogy. Best series of all time

    Unfortunately I also have a habit of picking up books, usually signed and limited runs of series that I really really like. It started with Malazan and now extends to Sanderson and a couple of others. This series I really did like and intended to have a matched numbered set, but somehow missed...

    Depending on their numbers and speed they can get it replaced, I’m thinking this is what I’ll do. If the kiddo wasn’t involved, it wasn’t already 30 degrees, and I wasn’t having shoulder surgery next week, we’d have time for me to tinker with it. But because of all that plus the existing age it...

    No idea why we keep trying to make Ashford a thing. Auburn isn’t playing well but neither is Alabama. Some questionable calls by the refs. Going down to the last possession. Typical Iron Bowl.

    I'm selling my slipcase Prince of Thorns if anyone here is interested. It was $200 new, never read or really taken out of slipcase except for photo. If anyone is interested give me a shout. Never did pick up the other two books and I'm not interested in an unmatched set to be honest. I liked...

    I can't promise anything with regards to Blue Gender. It was just the first thing that popped in my head. I haven't even seen it since it aired and I was drunk in college. But I did finish the series and my opinion didn't change. Overall I thought it was excellent.

    There’s a FSBO about half a mile from us, across the street from the elementary school where our son goes, and the only public school with 100 miles worth sending a kid to. It just recently dropped to $150k and has been sitting on the market for a while. Really wondering what is going on with it...
