Hopefully the house finally closes on the 24th then I'll need some place to stick that equity. Either another property or ride it all on ETH! $100k of Doge! Could probably get a decent room comp'd in Tunica or Bossier playing enough Blackjack too....

Drought also.

About once or twice a year we get emails about some contractor doing an OPGW install that died. One of them a couple of years ago had the "bucket" they were hanging from the helicopter in drop b/c it wasn't supported by a cable rated high enough to withstand rubbing against another piece...

The Utility I work at is split based on the individual opco. It really made it difficult starting out b/c I didn't know if a technician was union or not b/c I work with everyone across the whole service territory. Actually almost had grievances filed against me twice for doing "union" work b/c I...

Any impressions yet? Menards had the Delta T3 Fence upgrade for a great price and was supposed to be delivered within a week. Was going to just grab that and upgrade my existing fence. But now they've updated the order to show shipping August 18th. Now I'm back to thinking about canceling that...

I don't know, seems like an easy fix for the sequels. "My name may be Cole, but I have always been.... Scorpion." or whatever. Just drop the Cole character and move forward with fan service. Doesn't save this movie but it has made enough to get a sequel.

Received another full offer but it is an FHA. Faster closing with May 24th, out by 27th. Not sure what all the risks are that involve the FHA offer so am looking in to that. I’ll probably get screwed again.

My biggest complaint would be no overhang for clamping, not that you can’t clamp to that 2x4 😝

I agree with everyone in that it seems more like they were looking for an excuse. I’ll take responsibility for the insurance thing if it contributed to their uneasiness but honestly feel it was my realtor’s job to also shake that tree. She knows I’m a first time seller and sold me this house as...

Yeah so.... Got an offer of basically full price after 5 days. Accepted same day with one counter that had to do with some closing costs, conveying the refrigerator, and one other small thing. Then started the waiting process. On Sunday my realtor texted me a question about an insurance claim...

Revisited Nex Machina from them today after forgetting it was in my Steam library. It was fun for one or two runs through and certainly had a lot of shiny colors and explosions, but really suffered at being just a linear twin stick style shooter. Absolutely no replayability or incentive for me...

Which options did you end up going with? The PCS175 I have built out is just the 36" T-Glide with one of the mobile bases. Still clocks in at $3k.

They’ll mail you a stack of

A couple months ago I went through that whole series, the flash games up through the Steam ones. Overall they were enjoyable. Only a couple were slightly annoying if I remember. Appreciate they tried to tell a story through them.

Guys name sounded familiar and I was like wtf is bringing this back up a decade later?

Needs to stop flirting and go ahead so my buy order goes off.

Yeah, once I had the first one it locked in the same number for the rest as long as I responded during the pre-order. It is all relative and I don’t use them as readers, just display. I also have their version of a few Sanderson books. Missed the run of the Dresden Files or would have probably...

I did, the numbered were that price and the lettered were like $500 a piece. Keep in mind though I’ve been getting them since they did the Gardens of the Moon release so like 2007? So over 14 years one book every year and a half or so. All the same number.

Since SubPress just delivered the final version of their set to me a couple of weeks ago, I’ve wanted to start a reread also. Can’t use those as they’re in storage and they’re too nice to be everyday readers. May just Kindle them. What I’d really like to do is some sort of “annotated” reread of...

Couldn’t sleep last night so had my Binance all set up. Put in a limit of 0.17 for 6,500 shares just to see what happens. Executed during my flight. May put in another $1k in a limit of something stupid low and just see.

Hah no joke. But the proceeds from my house sale aren’t going to spend themselves! Set up a Binance.Us account. At least it’ll give me something to learn on the flight to Disney.

This is my concern. People that I know who can barely operate a cell phone are all huddled around their phone on Coinbase or Robinhood, something and sending group texted all night long about their Dogecoin hitting .41 and I’m like... something’s not right here. Meanwhile I have no idea what...

Some of the Neir inspired cosplay/porn was arguably the best part.

Yeah, I kept trying to wrap my head around that comparison. And in the context of the game the intro makes sense.

I watched Uncle Buck not too long ago and thought the same. Reminds me of my crazy Aunt.

I like my De Buyer more as well, but I also use it more since I got a smaller one to do eggs in for breakfast. It does have the rubber in the handle that I'd take out if you're using it in a 400+ degree oven.

I use grapeseed oil on my Matfer and De Buyer carbon steel pans.

Ever since watching Kobe Tai get impaled in Very Bad Things I’ve been leery of things at head height.

Fuck Sawstop. No way is it worth 3x the price. Sorry but you can put a price on safety. I was looking strongly at the F2 as well but reviews seemed a little spotty on quality. But part of me thinks they were just older reviews of the F1 because of old pictures vs recent publish dates. Kind of...

I’ve really liked my Saatva and wanted something a little more firm. Looking back through emails it has been just over two years now with no complaints. Pillow I switched to this kind after trying a few. Was getting some seriously bad neck pain and for a while had tingling and numbness in my...

Seven showings in two days with a lot of positive feedback. No one has mentioned anything about it being priced too high or any real tangible issues with the house. The main complaint feedback is that the layout is unique and just not for them. I mean the only real feedback that matters at all...

Damn. Mine’s a 2016, hope it doesn’t get banged up when I finally sell my house and find a new one. Gee I really hope not!

House is going live tomorrow morning. Now I gotta be ready to leave whenever there's a showing. Hopefully this goes fast and get good offers. I'm exhausted.

I haven't been out to my local premium hardwood store yet to check how 5/4 and 6/4 stuff is selling. Last year I picked up a bunch of hickory and other things that was cheaper than just buying dimensional stuff from HD or Lowe's. Need to make another run out there soon.

PM’d you.

As a reminder, Season 3 of The Last Drive-In on Shudder starts next Friday the 16th!

How do you mean the ASUS variants and Dual GPUs tomorrow? Haven’t been paying attention much to this lately since giving up earlier.

Wow, that CyberPower 10700 / 3070 is still available to me for $1,749. Wish I had some BB rewards bucks or something to throw at it and might seriously consider.

There was a much longer post that came up in this thread but here was one with a quick synopsis: https://blurbusters.com/gsync/gsync101-input-lag-tests-and-settings/5/ May not be the original you were referring to though...
