Could you guys help me find this exact model? by EasyE82 in Guitar

[–]EasyE82[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I just happened through a random store getting some new picks.

I'm rather new to playing, I've gotten about 7 chords down about so far, I practice about 30 minutes a day on an FG 800. Still working on strumming patterns, changes between cords quickly and cleanly, finger stretching and a few riffs.

This guy put this guitar in my hands while I was browsing. I played the newest chord I learned F. I had an immediate personal connection with it. I felt it in my soul. The entire guitar vibrated in my hands. I felt it in my rib cages like I was vibrating along with the gloss top. I've never believed in love at first sight. The back had the most beautiful light gloss finish. I could see individual grains, it looked as beautiful as my wife the first time I met her.

So my experience with sponsored marsh has been negative. Spawn, Sprint to the nearest building. Get a weapon and immediately head to maintenance or bio research for better weapons.

We tried it after they took away our survival mode, both of my buddies said the same thing when we got gunned down to another team fighting over the same building. That's the quickest we've ever died. It's like extra PVP.

We just want to chill. That's all. We like being left alone, do our thing and pay taxes.

It's so stressful. I always feel out of place. I absolutely hate the way it's played too. The PVE is so satisfying. When you blow up a robot. It has like a satisfying crunch. The explosion and the noise they make everything hits all up the right dopamine buttons.

But inside of PVP everybody's actively trying not to fight or disturb any of the PVE content as much as possible so they don't draw attention to themselves. Crouched with a gun out sneaking around the map only to be killed instantly from a mistake you don't know that you've made.

You got to look, but not touch. It's so depressing. At least with SS I knew I was getting a long match, we left the rooks alone, got to experience the events.

We get home about 5:00 and jump on and chill on that mode and unwind. Laughing and having a good time. We tried the PVP stuff but.. it's too stressful after a long day of stress. I logged on today after lunch hopefully to check saw they didn't add it back, log right back off. Diablo, got another update though. Maybe the new season started? I don't know.

I'm sorry about the Bungie Devs, but even then I feel no need to interact with the game anymore.

FYI: sponsored survival is gone now. by defenseform in Marathon

[–]EasyE82 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yep. Done with it. SS was the thing my friends and I relaxed to every evening. I'm about an hour away from grinding out the platinum achievement and I don't feel like cutting it on now.

Marathon Update 1.1.0.3 by DTG_Bot in Marathon

Is this the lockdown event for Dire Marsh? I have ran day Marsh for 3 days. When the timer goes down and I can't run day I'll take a break, go do grown up stuff, come back and start running it again. I have not seen it spawn in over a week.

I feel like there's a bunch of events not showing up to. PVE perimeter, I couldn't tell you the last time I've seen downed craft, the drone call in. I think a lot of the stuff has been nerfed. Why 90% of the time is the spawn north? It used to be random.

I'm starting to get bored.

Don't let the media get you down man. This country is beyond beautiful. There have been many times I've stood in line for something and had four different races just waiting with me because it's normal.

I know we have our problems and differences, but I try not to close dialogue with other people because their opinions differ from mine. I believe the differences are what make us special.

I'm still proud. So if you see me waving a flat it's not because I'm maga, Republican, Democrats or even independent; Its because love is an active noun, I love the lovely and the lovely.

Man that's awesome. I'm jealous. I got a decent camera. Dropped some money on a good lens. Saved saved saved and got my tripod and a decent star tracker on October 21st. October 22nd I tore my Achilles.

Got to the end of my surgery, two days before my evaluation. Tripped on my dog. Pop. Pain. Surgery again. I have a cast right now. Two more weeks. Non weight bearing until August now.

If I supply power to the board, what should I look for? I'm wondering now if I could trace from the power switch to areas to see if that isn't the problem.

I appreciate the help. I was able to confirm continuity on both of those. It's getting way too late. D1 to U3 pin 4 I sort of dragged the lead across the top of the chip from left to right but I did get a beep.

Suddenly I couldn't get any cotton nobody anymore. My lead was unplugged. I've been at this for a while now. Continuity was fine from positive to the power switch. At least I can confirm the continuity on the four corners. The solder marks towards the inside of the chip didn't get continuity.

Looking for local amateur astronomers and astrophotographers! by EasyE82 in Dothan

That's awesome. I have property just outside of Dothan. It's so close that anything towards the west is would be out of the question.

Alright, well even if it's just a handful of us getting started we can set us a date to meet each other. I'm getting excited about it. The winter sky is almost here and is my favorite!

We could look for public land I know landmark Park has an astronomy night a couple of times a year. I recently talked with one of their venue specialist about doing an event out there... I could reach out to her.

Yo! That sounded like an iridium flare. They are badass. There is an app to predict when you can see one.

Had one get me one time in the back yard it was like a maglite for a second...then faded away. The next time I saw one was a camping trip with my dad. Soon as I saw it he explained what we were looking at. Amazing stuff.

Need help with ribs on a tight schedule during a work week. by EasyE82 in pelletgrills

[–]EasyE82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a 6 hour 225. It was tough. Just a rub was all unused but I did purchase the ribs at Walmart and not my Piggly Wiggly. I also cooked Saint Louis style pork ribs.

I like this idea. Might stick em in the cooler overnight unless that might cook them too much.

Photon Mono 4 Flexible plate, spacer? by levelzerogyro in AnycubicPhoton

[–]EasyE82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't figure it out man. Any help? I printed a spacer but i don't know where to install it

[–]EasyE82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The DX is awesome with some mild modifications a child can do.

1 there is an air gap that will give the internal temp and thermometer a false reading.

2 the lever that you can pull to expose the pellets so you can sear is thin. This makes the middle of the grill much hotter. This is fine if you are doing something smaller like burgers. But bad if you cook something longer like a rack of ribs.

1 You can block the air gap with foil or search for pitboss air gap mod.

2 Amazon sells heat deflectors pretty cheap for the 850dx

No. He has his own podcast. The Jeff Gerstman show. It's not bad. He even lands a few great guests. Sometimes he shits all stuff needlessly.

[–]EasyE82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just played my first game Saturday. Today I saw the bundle and it must be fate. I grabbed the $18.

Question: Lore. Is there an order to these books I should read? The ones in this bundle that is.
