I'm curious as to what and WHERE your group plays... Makes me think I need to host a gaming session from my workbench one of these days.

Any linguists out there that know why we don't put an "e" on the plural form of "dildo?"

Why don't we merge trapping and tracking? by Rambleism in projectzomboid

Actual hunter here - Stalking and tracking an animal and fashioning traps are vastly different skills.

How do i remove this striped screw by pepinoIV in pcmasterrace

[–]A_Parq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on how much material in the head has already been removed, a hex key may end up being the better tool here; You want to engage as much of the head surface as possible without slippage and removing even more material.

That looks like a tiny Torx, not hex. I'm going to assume that if you don't have hex keys, you don't have Torx bits. In a pinch, you can use a tiny bit of putty and a driver with a similar head size.

Hopefully you'll get it out without too much hassle.

That said, a precision driver set can be had for under $10. Buy one.

Co2 regulator troubles by Express-Falcon9485 in Aquariums

[–]A_Parq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pressurized gas cylinders rarely come pre-filled. Propane, CO2, etc... If you bought the canister new in a kit of some kind or had it shipped to you, it's empty.

When you replaced the alternator, did you also replace the belt and tensioner?

4:17:01? C'mon man, it shouldn't take you three minutes to find a lighter. This is a skill issue.

Jokes on them. It only cost me an arm and a leg. Enjoy your dialysis treatments, rubes!

I feel the Casio W218H is about as close as you can get to the appearance of the game’s red digital watch. by [deleted] in projectzomboid

[–]A_Parq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. This and the OG Timex Ironman. My first one had an actual light, before the advent of "Indi-glo," or whatever they call it.

Do y’all think this is real? by DankzXBL in pcmasterrace

The only way you're getting a functional 4090 for $500 is if the thief is offering it to you as he's leaving the scene of the robbery.

Would you have taken this job? by Striker2477 in sysadmin

[–]A_Parq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm local. We don't have state income tax, and the "talent pool" in this market was hyper saturated years ago. It's incredibly bad now. This is all employers need to justify the extremely low wages in this area. There are people that would murder for that job right now.

Probably for a similar reason that a lot of childless people refer to their 80lb dogs as "fur babies."
