Just glancing at the weather map of the US today. The heat wave moved on. Really below average at least in the south. Places still hot for this time of year, but at least not 115. Except in places that normally have that high of heat daily.

How long after release will someone have something to make it look like 7 or 10? Few days/weeks at most.

Cheap homemade desk. I buy solid core doors with no hole. Pretty cheap then I paint them for desk I use for drawing. Cut one down and make two into a 90. One for the computer and other for drawings. Just make legs out of 2x4's.

The herby curby made it.

Played it all night. Man for a $400 guitar I like it a LOT. The fret ends are even really good. I've never even picked up a squire. This one is cheaper than the classic vibe by a little. Weighed it, 6 pounds 10 ounces which the weight was the biggest factor, kind left out Les Pauls...

You're no fun, that leaves out hookers and blow.

It's an old joke but I've known a number of people that have turned their hobby into a business. In short order they've lost a lot of money and hate their hobby.

Squire contempary on the right is new. Not bad. It was cheap and super super light. Weighing in at just over 6 pounds. Plus has a belly cut on the back which helps me. 12" radius on the fretboard is different from what I normally play. It came almost right in tune. I have some black locking...

Yeah the south is having a LOT of thunderstorms pop up. Normally when it gets warm it does that but this is all the way across TX deep into the south. Saw Baton Rouge had hit 48" of rain already for 1/2 a year and normal is 80" or so for the year. Crazy, no hurricane rain either so far. The...

Find a local club and go to a star party or whatever they want to call it. View through all sizes and styles of telescopes and get an idea of what you can see and if it's what you are after price wise. Most of them will have a dozen or more telescopes set up from really cheap ones they drag out...

Humidity gets high enough here for extended periods it actually makes it somewhat cooler since it gets harder and harder to heat all that up. Normal summer temps 95 and humidity of 40-60% depending on the time of day. It's been 98% the last week almost all day and 99-100% at night which makes it...

High in Portland in the last few days 115F. High in El Paso over the weekend, 76F. Think about that. Super hot in Oregon, Washington and California. Below average on the gulf coast here now for end of June. high of 85 here today.

My truck is still chugging along with limited amount of new stuff. 2007.5 Z71 with 75,000 miles on it now. Used only on ranch roads and such. Not offroaded but the ranch roads get slick as greased pig shit when it rains. Seen several people not "stuck" just could't move from spinning the tires...

Ford is going to start removing the start/stop deal on trucks now because of the chip shortage. Apparently they can't get the chips that do that, good.

Just over an acre. They do a lot with 1 acre, looked larger.

So you shouldn't go and hit ont he counselor? Nah probaby not the phscyo bablle would never end even in bed.

When did humble bundle become mostly books?

Had sensor replaced at the dealer here in my truck. Talking to the service manager he said they were mega backed up as usual due to waiting on parts. Said they were buying stuff aftermarket when they could find it like an O'Reilly alternator and fixing someones car so they could drive it off the...

Preview looked like it was aimed at more tablet/touch shit. Pass.

I'm 50.416 years old. I don't have that many fingers to hold up....

My dad is 200% about him at all times, every time. When my sister was born my parents really had nothing living in a tiny garage apartment. The day she was born he went out and bought a new corvair spider when they nothing. The day I was born 8 years later he quit his job and went to work for...

Not politics I "think". Before

This thread makes me feel more normal exponentially day by day.

Well owned by Pearl Abyss from South Korea has a certain amount to do with it. The dumbest shit is they go one way full blast and then the other sometime later to correct their own fuck ups. They introduced the rorq and capital mining drones and people mined the shit out of never ending anoms...

I don't have any Omega accounts now but was reading the forum. CCP is really pushing micro transactions, you get a popup if you die that you can buy a ship replacement package of so much plex and such. Also logged in numbers have fallen off a cliff, couple people had charts showing last time it...

Dad was in the same house as I was all day. Didn't speak one word to each other. About normal. Was in business in some ways together for 25 years and exchanged nothing more "Check this" or "it's okay". for most of that time.

Had watched a few new guitars on reverb. Got offers of less on 3 of them over the week. Paid for them only to get a message later they didn't have the guitar. All refunded, just found it odd they all managed to sell that one guitar in store. All 3 at high volume sellers.

Some places in the US it's illegal to cultivate/plant bamboo, ranks right up there with Kudzu. Once you start with it, you will never ever get rid of it or even keep it under control without a LOT of work.

That Amazon would definitly be a killjooy for snu snu.

If passed $6 trillion bill would buy $3 trillion of infrastructure with inflation, maybe. Just saying.

Only thing looking green is the Euro to the dollar, imagine that.

Mine that thing to death :)

Steel, aluminum, lumber and oil are up. Takes a while for these things to work down to the consumer enough to notice. Good thing the plan is to spend a ton on infrastructure, they don't use any of that.

Had my whole house water softener installed professionally when I had a new well/pump installed. Area known for red dirt coming from the iron in the ground. Very hard without a softener.

Changing shit for the sake of changing shit. Justify your job I guess.

In my day it was just called bullshit.

Not surprised. Mall where I grew up just got leveled and some are thinking Amazon wharehouse maybe. Times change. Seems like it would have had a lot of challanges before the pandemic.

When someone that works at a publicly held company says "Oh and and this isn't public knowledge yet". Umm ok thanks, I think.

Gotta figure out what the capital gains are going to be on a house and land sale. The house had been put in my name maybe 15 years ago. I did not live there, my grandmother paid the property taxes which were almost nothing. So in total I have sank 0$. Just poking around it looks complicated. The...

Parents got a new roof because of hail in MS. They had already decided to reroof the house because it was nearing the end of it's life span. One of those things that some people hold out for apparently. They didn't even remember the hail storm. Neighbors got their shingles replaced, another few...
