    Dune (2020)

    Here's to hoping its well done. Trailers create buzz, but we all know they can be a smoke screen for a garbage movie.

    Found a map image I forgot I had. Anything in the green zone and east will be pleasant if you don't want an arid environment. It really does encompass a considerable amount of land. If you're considering cities or counties, here is my opinion (other's will vary): We currently live north of...

    Speaking of Primaris Marines; I think these "action figures" are cool and I would like one, but something just seems a little too anime in their proportions. But, I'm liking the increased exposure this hobby/universe is getting lately...

    Shit. That's a REALLY long answer. After work I can try to chime in. Short info for now: Dallas and Houston area (not in city limits) is green and still affordable. Austin is not affordable until you're 30-45 minutes out. San Antonio isn't green by default, but prices are good. In general...

    If you're an American, you won't enjoy Austin. Choose something less socialist if you're coming to Texas.

    Pretty sure you need ventilation and filters on the top side specifically for that as well (unless things have evolved in the last 25 years from when we had it).

    Found this video mind blowing. I think it's so cool what is possible and seeing what else is to come is exciting. Gets really good around 7 minute mark. Ps. His construction and painting gave me anxiety. Don't expect wonders there. Its the VR modeling that is impressive.

    Fuuuuuck that unless said agreement returns 100% of your deposit (if there is one) if it doesn't happen by a certain date (also get it notarized and keep your copy handy). But, even then, fuck that because you can find someone else.

    You put yourself into this continual spiral of self-perpetuated victimization, ignorance, and racism and think its OK to murder innocent children? These disgusting pieces of shit need to be eradicated from the face of the earth, for the benefit of all mankind.

    That's fair. Being immersed in the environment is very different. My only exposure is America's interpretation of French. When we went to Italy last year the food was way better than any Italian restaurant in the states.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    It's actually a deliberate set of rules in the banking channels to have different processing times depending on whether or not it's going into a bank or out. Essentially, if it benefits the bank, it's processed with the hour. If it's money leaving the bank they intentionally delay for a few days...

    Trim and nothing else, ever? Then you won't need anything particularly heavy duty. Do you have any other pneumatic tools or would this be a first? I'd personally rather not have a random assortment of pneumatic, or even just one piece.

    Z3. The Z8 also existed, but it was a very expensive V8 halo car for BMW and not many were made. Can't believe you would just leave cars stuck in the mud, lol. After the first time I would have figured he would say that's enough.

    Correct for the vast majority of rentals. Except when it's a sports car that someone can rent for a day but not usually afford to own. It will be driven hard. I rented one in Atlanta a year and a half ago (Camaro SS) and its rear tires were bald to the cords and leaking and the engine...

    You're thinking about bankruptcy over a $15k-$20k car? That's like someone having a hang nail and deciding to just cut off their hand. You go BK and you can forget about credit and decent loans on future cars for 7 years.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Despite what all the JDM weebs think, the 370z does not have the GT-R engine. It's not going to handle boost the same way and it's not going to be as robust. It's a deep, dark rabbit hole of money if you are trying to make that car uber fast. You may as well start with a better platform...

    How many times will you have to replace the ruined wood (and deal with the hassle of replacing it) before it would have been better to go with synthetic? Will the wood last 3 years each time? 4 years?

    For kids, you're definitely better off not going too high. There's an important safety factor to consider. I would call it the interior wall of a dormer as well (like that picture) but some Google searches of indoor climbing walls should yield great examples of complex angles without too much...

    Had a neighbor who built one into their fireplace, which rose up 2.5 stories through the main room (hearths on two sides). It was probably 7 feet wide and 20-21 feet high. The hand-holds were built in, not movable. The house was taller than usual, not a typical floor plan.
