There's always the off chance that someone has actually used one in real life. As you say, I'm aware of rtings but also enjoy soliciting feedback from people here. Well, certain people ;)

The Gigabyte M34WQ that seems to be the hotness also seems to be out of stock everywhere. Was considering the LG 34GN850-B as a replacement but it is $800. This is office use only with zero gaming and I'd prefer to try out an ultrawide, can always fall back to 2x 27" if I need. Any other...

It is possible @GuardianX was going after something that always irritated me with the Amazon purchase of Twitch. There were/are a ton of opportunities to tie in plenty of the existing Amazon ecosystem to Twitch that seemed like are not exploited. More visibility to directly purchase games that...

Lol thanks for playing your idol. We’ll just vote you out next week and now it will be because you’re black.

I think it was the RLM review of Episode 3 and 4, but they made a comment about "where are all the Klingons?" I don't and haven't watched Picard but do remember the strange Klingons at the start of Discovery (after lasting 3 episodes and giving up on that one). So are there no Klingons in Picard?

That sounds very nice, don't go out of your way. I'm starting work on a writing desk design that I've pretty much settled on, from a 1990 issue of Fine Woodworking. Drafting it out to see if there are any dimensions I want to change or drawer arrangement. Found a couple of errors in their...

I remember you posting last year but was in the middle of selling my house and moving to an apartment before getting my house and shop. May do it this year. Nice to have references. Just recently bought about 5 books of Shaker history, shop drawings, and collections.

Okay, yeah, that was all my napkin / excel math... well that was the napkin part, the excel part was getting more specific with actual Federal, State, FICA, Health, 401k contributions, HSA contributions, vacation, blah blah. It comes out to within a couple $/hr but wanted to get a little more...

Didn’t we have a CPA / Tax thread somewhere? Doing napkin and Excel math myself to try and equate my current salary + benefits to an hourly rate for self employment. I feel like I’m close but just wondered if anyone had more direct experience that would talk through PMs or anything. Got a couple...

I'm having a lot of fun with this. No idea wtf itemization is about b/c it seems all over the place so I just go +gooder healing and whatever other stuff improves my main heals. Swapped over to Priest pretty much immediately from Druid and haven't really changed in these 36 levels or so. Seems...

I like the show for the strange pacing and quirky stuff that we don't see a lot of these days, for good or bad. It at times reminds me of a Cohen Brothers piece and other elements sprinkled around. Unfortunately it just isn't great as a whole package. It isn't offensively bad and is perfectly...

Throwing out a question for the group: Looking for something to make for our wedding at the end of July. Not really a Bride's gift but something we'd use after the ceremony but we could also use at the ceremony. My head is kind of automatically going toward some type of table for the guest book...

Gotta give props to Woodcraft for continued good customer experience. Was having some issue online where it wouldn't take a 10% off code so gave them a call. The nice lady ended up taking off more than 10% or each item (to round down to the nearest dollar) as well as taking off the shipping...

Unless a board partner like EVGA allows step up some kind of access. Mine is from January this year so if it rolls around I'd give it a shot. I guess it is only 90 days? never looked at this stuff but logging in to EVGA site that is what it says. Meh.

Also, I did the $0.00 free shipping and it is already shipped with a delivery date of Friday.

There is also a Free Offers tab that you can add to cart for free stuff at a specific $ threshold. I got 5 HDMI cables bc I didn’t need a mouse or keyboard.

Damn that Max 15 is sexy. I'd use it purely as a work machine and traveling with it kind of scares me, but price wise it is great. Screw it, went ahead and ordered. Now I just need to find a new work monitor... well and hopefully get this job offer so I can write this off.

As much as he accurately depicts the shitshow that is the recent, current, and future landscape of MMOs, watching the video somewhat makes me want to play. Well, it makes me feel like I do. When in reality I'd last about 2 days and realize there's just too much going on and it best remains a memory.

Also I’ve found (and after watching a YouTube video years ago) that sanding end grain to a higher grit (maybe 2x’ish) also helps your finishing. End grain will suck up more of your finish and the higher grit will prevent such a large discrepancy in look between your faces of the project. Also...

I am now considering this as well. Got a call from a really good friend yesterday that is looking for someone to help consult on a $200M project and needs a wireless engineer. We talked it over for a few hours and it was something that was my goal previously. At the time, after leaving my first...

I found summons on her a liability anyways with the life steal. And dodging was easier without have her aggro split and changing target at the last second.

Got the hinges and latch on. Of course I'm not 100% happy, but it is my first attempt. The styles and types were overwhelming and there was no way for me to know before just doing them. The hinges were a pita b/c I didn't bother with a jig. Ended up just using double sided tape and laying the...

You still have 1-2mm of slop but at least it is consistent now :p Should finish off my Murphy Bar tonight. Waiting on last coat to dry. Will post pics. I'm mostly happy but like everything could point out the 1,000 problems and for about 950 of them I at least can see how/why it exists and how...

We got the ABC story book for bed time story and an LTT mousepad. Screwdriver looks cool, will probably order it tonight.

I missed when SubPress started the Dresden series so will probably never buy in or start. There just aren’t many other series that interest me as much as what Erickson has done and Sanderson’s stuff. Although I am also starting to collect Vicker’s Guides. Already have two on pre-order 😬

I did too until the Crimson Rot one. But eventually adjusted and they were fine on foot also. Initially though it was WTF is this gigantic AoE insta death BS.

We watched this the night before? Something, maybe the day it came out without realizing it. It wasn't the worst thing in the world and I liked it better than Don't Look Up. Parts of it seemed almost too satirical to have been done by Apatow. Some of the cameos were strange also. It was okay...

I use the R3 and have recently considered stepping up to the K4. But the R3 works just fine really. https://www.kregtool.com/shop/pocket-hole-joinery/pocket-hole-jigs/kreg-jig-r3/R3.html https://www.kregtool.com/support/faqs-product-info/discontinued-products/kreg-pocket-hole-jig-k4/K4.html

One coat of TotalBoat Wood Sealer. Pretty happy with how it went on and what it has currently done to the oak. We'll see after coat 2 and 3. It isn't perfect but I'm happy with the amount of time I spent fixing little things. There really wasn't too much. I think this is going to be the front...

Sometimes it sucks when stuff like this comes up, but this has happened more than a few times over the years and makes me feel that SubPress is actually doing QC and holding their printers to standards.

Oh that is cool for sure. I have all the 1/3 arc second DEM data for work. Didn’t occur to me to do CNC stuff like that. No new hobbies! No! Bad Intrinsic!

I have no idea but that's really cool. :)

I know that Woodsmith has a video series using CNC from Inventables, but I don't know what model they use. If it is X-Carve or something else. Watched them in passing but not paid too much attention since CNC isn't in my immediate future.

Murphy Bar is coming along nicely. Work has been busy so haven't had much time to do anything than break down the stock and get a dry fit on the case. Hopefully this weekend I can get the door finished, then glue up. Still torn on how I want to finish it. It is going outside on a friend's deck...

From a level of frustration standpoint these are my favorite fights though. Generally aren't huge terrain issues, a giant hitbox that you're struggling to work around, camera issues, etc. Just you and a humanoid enemy in an arena. Kind of a real get gud fight. So I can beat my head against this...

I'm at the Melania fight so that video was on point. Can get her to phase 2 pretty reliably but keep getting tripped up there and run out of steam. Decided to take a bit and test out this Parry stuff. Man I have no idea how he does that. I've successfully parried about 3 attacks, never back to...

Code issues? That dev knew good and well just what he was doing.

Yeah, oddly enough. I use it to hold weapons and armor so that I'll know which ones are dupes and which I only have 1 of. No real reason for it, just a habit from older Souls games.
