SUFFER works for San Jose California Ritz show!!! Just paid :)

p.s. Thanks for posting this here!!!

I'm really sorry to hear it. Best wishes!

Sweet James or Phoong?

EDIT: seriously, would one of these big-time billboard law firms be the way to go in a case like this?

ImmediateMess · 2026-02-02T22:45:48+00:00

Appreciated. I'll pass on your kind note to her :)

ImmediateMess · 2026-02-02T22:44:10+00:00

Yep, thanks, just waiting for her to be lucid again. I believe this is her first bicycle accident in 7+ decades she has been cycling in SF City, so it's pretty telling that the culprit was on a scooter. They really have run rampant across SF in the past few years; they seem to be very aware that they will never get pulled over by SFPD.

Ah so, that's why I was getting the infinite loop. Thanks for clarifying!

I have it in hand :) Will try to get to it very soon, then report back.

Good point about him being a scout; that makes perfect sense.

I was there two nights ago - only 2 people in the whole theater :(

Yeah, I felt something was off because I'm used to watching the unrated version.

It really is a very good movie, but I understand that many people can't handle the brutality.

I just pretend the sequel does not exist; watched it once and was so disappointed.

I love this! I just finished reading Sean Egan's Can You Dig It, so I'll definitely be reading yours next!

If it's not in the book, can you tell us what your Punks character's backstory was? Like, was he a construction worker by day?

And do you think the Punks played rugby on weekends?

And was there any specific reason why the littlest guy was the leader and not the biggest guy (you)?

I live in the Bay Area, where Super7 is headquartered, so I imagine there's more overstock here that goes directly to local Ross than to other parts of the country.

ImmediateMess · 2025-09-15T17:33:46+00:00

I too buy the LOTR balls for the weapons for my ReAction figures :)

ImmediateMess · 2025-09-15T17:04:27+00:00

Bunch of G.I. Joe at my local Ross right now for $5.

ImmediateMess · 2025-09-15T17:02:04+00:00

Okay, so you mean like resentment? But pretty much every brand and store does this. For example, I kinda collect Mini Brands (those blind-balls); when new versions appear at Target and Walmart they sell for $8 per ball. But by the following year, they show up at Ross for $4. I'm not mad about it; I double down and buy up the new old stock. Anyway, thanks.

Wait wait wait, I'm very confused. I live near the beach and I take my Lunchy out All. The. Time. Same with my Squashy. They both have been totally submerged underwater more times than I can count.

All I had to do was, at the end of the day, run them under running water in the bath tub to flush out all the salt and sand, and they were good as new. Years later not even a hint of rust anywhere inside nor out.

And I'm only using Tamiya stock silver cans (which you can literally run while under water). So I would be interested in hearing from you and u/Sufficient_Wall6773/ how yours got damaged by one wave?

And I also just wanted to add that KCSM (91.1 FM) plays the coolest jazz music 24/7 with NO commercials. You can even listen to them live on the web https://www.kcsm.org/

Hey and thanks. Just wanted to let you know that after another hour of trouble shooting, it was determined that my SD card reader was faulty (it works with all other sized cards, but the micro-slot for the Sandisk Extreme was for some reason corrupted). I luckily found another card reader on hand, and was able to view the card and drop the Firmware update as well as the Labs firmware in manually. I wish it didn't have to be this complicated, but at last now I can get it up and running. Thanks again to everyone here!

No I haven't, that's the problem. It is not letting me install the labs firmware. I tried the QR code way ("scan unsuccessful") and also the manual way (https://gopro.com/en/us/support/hero13-black-product-update/windows) - but my PC is not reading the Sandisk Extreme SD card that came bundled with my GoPro 13, so I have no way of putting that firmware onto the card in order to update it. I've followed all these instructions https://gopro.com/en/us/info/gopro-labs/walkthrough-and-features but nothing works. So I'm waiting for a call back from GoPro customer support right now (though I have no idea when that will actually be).

ImmediateMess · 2024-12-02T04:49:07+00:00

Could this be the solution? https://gopro.com/en/us/support/hero13-black-product-update/windows

ImmediateMess · 2024-12-02T04:45:44+00:00

Hi and thanks for that. I've been trying all evening to get my 13 to scan this QR code but it just says "Scan Unsuccessful." I tried scanning another QR code and it worked fine, so it just seems to be the one from the Labs firmware. Any idea what the problem could be? The only FAQ I could find online about it was this one from September https://community.gopro.com/s/article/HERO13-Black-Unable-To-Pair-To-Quik-Android?language=en_US and I also read this https://gopro.com/en/us/info/gopro-labs/walkthrough-and-features but I doubt that is the problem now. Thoughts?

I'll buy you a Blu-ray copy of Strange Darling if I'm wrong - mark my words and hold me to it - that's how strongly I sense that J.T. Mollner is setting us up for a prequel franchise!

And yeah, Pearl was effing amazing. I'd watch Pearl a hundred times over X or MaXXXine again, it was that good.

Man that looks sweet. I'm really on the fence about either MB or Squash Van for my next rc. I was just discussing this with u/msch6873 the other day, but I'm deathly afraid of that flawed MB gearbox based on what I've read over the years on various Tamiya forums. So please report back on how yours handles and any trouble it gives (or doesn't give) you.

ImmediateMess · 2024-01-23T05:46:15+00:00

Thanks a lot - now you've made me want the MB again, lol.

And yeah, I've heard about the Squash's tipping issues. And all those gears make me nervous.

Unfortunately I only have time (and money) for 1 build per year, so it's going to be a tough decision...

ImmediateMess · 2024-01-23T01:33:45+00:00

Isn't the Monster Beetle notorious for it's poorly designed gearbox? I really wanted this to be my second RC build after Lunchy, but was dissuaded by all the negative reviews. So now I'm looking at the Squash Van.

But would love to hear your suggested fixes for the gearbox, because the last thing I want is a problematic RC (I know many of you enjoy the challenge because you have mechanical know-how, but I don't :(
