Gave my talk at the college this morning in the IT (Industrial Technology) department which is manufacturing and associated support of the petro chemical and shipping industry locally. Kind of suprised at the number of females that were there. In the Q&A session one of them asked me what tips I...

A lot of the builds you find on the official forums will have a write up of how to level that build. Switch from X skill/gems at Y level and so forth as you go. Normally labeled new player or "cheap" to appeal to those who don't want to spend 40ex on a build to start like some of them listed. I...

Sounds like they threw money at stuff they didn't fully understand and were not happy with the underperforming response. I guess they think boatloads of random cash should perform well.

Streaming in general. Curious how much of it comes from sour grapes or something real. Blames it on their agency, you would think they would have some idea of what they are paying for before hand. Everspace dev reportedly says they paid thousands for a pro streamer who 'played like a f**king...

Red universal language for no good.

I don't know about before, but now the game of acts 1-10 is just a small portion of the game that starts with mapping. A lot of people aren't really looking to progress thru it as much as just get thru it as a requirement.

Ham radio band propogation is shit now for an unusually long period. They come and go in cycles but this one sucks. 40m 20m 17m

Hired to be technical advisor on full metal jacket, not an actor originally.

Leave it to me to break the lab. Went back to do the lab I started last night. 3rd phase open up on Izaro which at this point is nothing. Soon as I hit the key the phase despawns, traps, Izaro everything. No key loot, turned loot on/off show all to be sure. Nothing. Still let me into the...

Mid lab DC, blah.

Guess I picked a good league to run a barrage build (well single target anyway). Changes in skills post they want to reduce the amount of damage barrage gets from extra arrows.

He was a big ham radio nut. Would have liked to have gotten W6OBB my log book, no luck. Best of Art Bell Listen to The Very Best Of Art Bell (U7Radio.org) on TuneIn

Because he was out west his shows or the repeats of them were on at like 2am in a lot of places.

He used to hang out on 80m on ham radio pretty often. I heard him a few times but never made a contact with him. I don't think he was crazy, he some people that were borderline crazy on at times. The area 51 caller was one of those.

Pre internet days at night he was big. Never made fun of anyone just talk to them. If you were working at night or traveling at night it was worth tuning into. East of the rockies you're on the air.

70mph winds here this morning. But it didn't kock down a pair of limbs that got broken off in the ice storm over the winter. Bad luck.

Damn, cut to the bone. Who knows might be tasty. Every other week I read about some insect food saving the world from starvation. Never know about spiders. Saw something about roaches last week.

Here ya go. Tarantula on a burger? Tarantula on a burger.

Looks like Eve Online copied a bunch from PoE. They're introducing PVE instances with effects for each instance much like maps mods.

Think they would at least change the name.

Only so many ideas to go around in games I guess. Eve online announced today at fan fest they are having an abyss expansion with items to randomly modify properties to ship modules like vaal orbs.

Kind of the opposite. Cried about Russia for so long now it's to the point a lot of people don't listen to anything they say.

Not house plants, but everything is out now. We have a bunch of wild strawberries here and picked up a bucket of them yesterday. They're pretty good, not as good as raised domestic ones and not as big by a bunch. But still pretty good. Also the blackberries are getting close and my muscadines...

Had blood work and a sonogram/ultrasound (whatever they call it) of my abdomen last year. They contacted me and told me they would pay to have it retested elsewhere since they had an audit. Doesn't sound good. I realise they don't keep blood work around, but apparently the hospital doesn't keep...

They give it away to political groups running for president, right Obama?

Meuller had his guys interview FB workers about Russia. I feel safer now....

He should be well practiced by now. Same shit, new year. Why Zuckerberg’s 14-Year Apology Tour Hasn’t Fixed Facebook

Zuckerberg should get a raise then. Most effective ad money ever spent EVER.

Guessing most own facebook shares, even if they don't know it.

Sounds like they heard about how the beast league was received, maybe.

Well lights from a city are another deal entirely, the biggest complaint I hear locally is people literally can't turn off the niehgbors outside light or their own security light.

You should be right int he middle of a lot of telescope users. From looking online in the last 20 years whole lot seem to be centered around AZ.

Star gazing is like a lot of other things. You can spend $50 or spend $25k. Worst part is some people see astrophotography done with a $25k setup and think they can get a really cheap scope/mount/camera and produce the same results. When you get into astrophotography much the price can go up...

Good thing you finished up when you did. After you logged the server went down.

8" Newt. Just to give you some ideas/comparisons of stuff.

I like looking at what they call the faint and fuzzies. You can get some reallyl incredible views with relatively small telescopes on the brighter stuff. The faint and fuzzier the larger the scope works better. You let your eyes settle into the dark and have a relatively dark area you can some...

You use a reflector of size, say 8" or larger and you can see really start to see the deep sky stuff. Here's some examples of what you can actually see as opposed to images over multiple days and multiple hours of explosure. Sketching - Cloudy Nights What peopel actually see on specific...

I look thru a telescope quite often. Just posted in here about grinding a new mirrior at the moment. Have two now. A refractor i don't use much and a 10" reflector for deep space viewing which is pretty nice and the part I enjoy. Not big on planetary stuff. If you live someplace you don't have...

Thanks, grabbed it.

HELP! My arms are about to fall off. Been grinding on a 16" telescope mirror the last few days. Had the mirror blank for a long time and decided to work on grinding it. I have about 8 hours into grinding so far. I'd go out and smoke a cigar but pretty sure my arms won't work to lift the cigar lol.
