It's insane to think how there are 3000 users when thers like maybe a 100 of us on a good day lol.

I'd give you a pat on the back. Thank you for your continuing contributions!

Yes good idea max night time speed limits 80km/h

Yea because cars back in the 30 drove at 120kph on the regular at night. Have you heard of driving gaster than what your head lights allow you to see and stop in time?

Lol I said the exact same thing?

[–] Mpatch@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Nah, the best would probably be to line it with fire brick.

Interesting. After 18 years, my fork still slams just the same. Nice. Looks like a win to me.

Nah, you're just being a gate keeping prick.

Like I always say, Shut up and ride.

Wow, not often you meet a prick in the mtb community. Are you also one of those who think the bike makes the rider? And now, are salty because you found out the truth? Or are you too scared to actually ride your bike because one dent and your high tech carbon fiber frame is scrap?

Won't lie that's a far stretch to say that a bike with hydraulic disk front and rear, Marzocchi Bomber DJ 3, and a geometry that most hard tail mtb mimic these days, I find it hard to agree. The only thing that I am missing out on is having access to a 12x1 group set. But an 8x1 is more than enough for the stuff I do.

Sorry wat? Guess I didn't get that memo, I'll go trash my 2008 giant stp and buy a new bike. Thanks

 

Fits 2 sticks of butter, cream, coffee, and chocolate chips in the center console. More updates later.

 

Amazon did me dirty with luna and rug pulled GOG from the library. I've been playing KCD2 for the past while I don't do much gaming. Life doesn't give me time so I only get a few hours a week. But still it was my one of few mental escapes. Regardless, I looked into other cloud gaming options and said fuck it and fuck them. I'm going to buy a pc. It's been years since I've kept up with what the hell is what . The most up-to-date I am is that I'm gona pay, pay enough to have to hide from the wife.

This seems like over kill for playing most games I'd do on ultra but I don't know. Plus it be nice to not lust over new titles that I may not be able to run like I did with my previous machine. (Laptop, i7 4700mq gt 740M) which i still use on the regular.

Almost all of my play will be done on a 60" plasma tv. Maybe at some point I'd play on a fancy 4k monitor but that's far away. Because I like sitting in my bed at night and playing with a controller.

 

It's been there for months now. It happend shortly after I painted the walls. I'm jot going to fix it because why. Kids will slam the door again anyways. Rather a hole in the wall than having to replace hinges or a door.

 

Need some help with overcoming the initial hurdles of a learnjng curve. I'm in a fake it till I make it type situation right now. We acquired most of the equipment that a machine/fab shop would have and most of them, there is plenty of information online to learn from. Except for the horizontal boring mill, and I am struggling. The tooling all needs to be made up for it. Nothing I can purchase direct. The spindle is a MT6. My supplier can only get me reducers to MT5. And setting up parts is quite time consuming.

Any advice or know how on being able to turn a profit on this machine would be appreciated.

The machine is a TOS W100 in mostly good working order. Apart from the boring head dropping 0.020" if I cut in reverse travel after forward travel cutting.

Thanks
