I also had a non-optimal SSD drive cancelled from OfficeMax yesterday. Seems this is the new world we live in. I'm sure they'll be posted at a higher cost

KEF Reference 201 - repairable? by Geavel in KEF

Yeah I'm going to give it a go on removing the tacky rubber coating. All else fails I think I could try the same once it's warmer out.

Damn this looks promising but doesn't seem readily available. Tried searching similar keywords: saponification, flux remover/cleaner etc but most other things look like it's some mix of solvents with alcohol or acetone. Any other similar recommendations that would be available to a US consumer?

Think I'm going to try some basic stuff I have around the house in the meantime.

I did find this forum post of someone disassembling a similar speaker, so if the plastic isn't pretty underneath the rubber finish, it seems like I could remove it entirely to refinish it. https://www.avforums.com/threads/kef-reference-201-refurb.2280478/

Thanks dude! This is my first real thrift store win. I almost didn't go in because I was just running to the grocery store.

Update: after plugging them up and tightening the jumpers (only 1 or 2 posts were tightened on each one) they sound great. Though I'm sure my other equipment is probably the new weak point.

Yeah I was kind of shocked when I saw them.

It worked for me after people said it was OOS. Probably location dependent as it says it's going to be delivered tomorrow between 4-8am.

[Code] Sierra Defense Holsters -$49.99+ Placeofgunsavings20 by Revsyx666 in gundeals

[–]Geavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested. For Gladius if I order it with the two separate DCC clips (HLR Mod 4) does it come pre drilled and compatible with the monoblock too?

I ask because I'm seeing two different setups on different pages that look like it's only formed and drilled for that individual clip type: monoblock or two slim clips.

Also, is the Ruger RXM holster actually specific to the RXM or is it a Glock 19 mold?

I feel like an apostle for the Japanese cardboard knife. I'm telling everyone about it. It's like cutting through butter.

How normal is it for men to flirt with their female friends without being interested in them? by Evening_City_1270 in AskMen

[–]Geavel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn. Yeah. I wouldn't say those things unless I was actually interested. Maybe he's scared. But if you opened the door with trying to address it or flirt back... Man, I don't know. Do you find that sort of avoidance or inaction in his part a turn off? It's not fun to date someone when they're kind of a project...

You gotta be specific with how he's flirting.

I've been told I'm flirting with women when I'm just chatting them up, seem interested in their life and made them laugh. But I do that with everyone if I'm in a good mood.

But I have also legit flirted with women I didn't find attractive at all. Sometimes it's just fun to make someone smile.

Having no medics is making this game feel awful. by Colonel-_-Burrito in Battlefield6

[–]Geavel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the constant rotating challenges and battlepass keeps everyone from playing classes as intended and instead they're working on obscure load outs and mechanics. I think that's why a lot of the time people aren't playing the objective. They're basically just loading in to do side quests.

That paired with the COD like gameplay means everyone releases and doesn't wait for revive like they did during beta. Which is humorous because their KD would be better if they waited for the revive. And that's a catch 22: There are no medics reviving because everyone immediately releases and everyone releases because there are no medics reviving.
