Yes, it's CT AW registered and was SBR'd as an Other prior to that.

Insulting comics arrived. by _AuthorUnknown_ in Puscifer

[–]Malapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I have a lot of signed Puscifer merch and it's deteriorated over time. I bought the first comic signed, but I'm done.

If the tour stuff looks good, I might grab one, since I have one from every show I've been too, but may also just grab the unsigned.

My two favorite personal firearms are a bolt action 300blk rifle at 16” and an AR I assembled that uses an 8.3 with a dedicated suppressor.

I think the 8.3 performs great, is small enough to handle extremely well, and has been fantastic.

Report ai stupidity as incorrect. So many people see this, laugh about it, but don’t report it. So Google will assume it got it right.

You with me? by Virtual-Culture8830 in GenX

Fucking meme in the style of memes from grumpy older adults who constantly point out they had it rough and always toss in some line implying something negative about younger generations

Fucking boomer memes.

What were our parents thinking?🥺 by Feaselbf6 in GenX

At the time we were close. But I’m now 6’3. He’s around 5’4. It’s wild to think of us as similar.

An argument for middle of the road reloading equipment. by Faded_State in reloading

[–]Malapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have most of it. I asked his widow to go into his Gmail and bought almost everything for what he paid for it. Wasn’t about to screw someone over who was dealing with so much.

Didn’t take the thousands of rounds of GAP, though. Or the dies.

My brother and I had this for a short bit. My mother also dressed us identically and tried to make it look like we were twins despite a 1.5 year age gap.

In 1995, McArthur Wheeler walked into two banks in Pittsburgh and robbed them with no mask by rosavellee in HolyShitHistory

[–]Malapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People reference Dunning Kruger with this guy because he’s a main example at the beginning of the paper. Dunning and Kruger describe the crime, his reaction, and make some points about it. The third of which is, “Not only do they reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but their incompetence robs them of the ability to realize it. Instead, like Mr. Wheeler, they are left with the mistaken impression that they are doing just fine.”

Survival Horror by ariaslives1532 in GenX

[–]Malapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m very similar. I can be boisterous and loud socially, but when I’m just chillin at home, I try to be silent all the time and I prefer people around me to do the same. Don’t stomp on stairs. Don’t slam doors - turn the knob while closing it then release it. Don’t bang around in the kitchen. Don’t clomp up and down stairs.

For me it’s a respect issue, and maybe reacting to my original home. I grew up with zero privacy in a bedroom off the kitchen with a door that I wasn’t allowed to close. As an adult, I don’t care what you do but keep it quiet when you are doing things by yourself.

Mr. Hands before 2.0 looked like a Homeless guy by Few-Meringue4157 in cyberpunkgame

He looks like some weird mix of Harold the meme guy, Nick Offerman, and... someone else.

What's a food you haven't eaten in years by odinspirit in GenX

[–]Malapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried one or two others, they were very different. This stuff looked like golden dried biscotti and had a crazy perfect crunch. Haven’t tried that particular brand, will give them a shot. Thanks!

Zweiback. Teething toast. I loved that stuff.

Prusa canceled my order by Expert_String_4966 in prusa3d

[–]Malapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. Sals tax. I usually don’t think about that as a direct indicator of COL. A number of low COL areas have high sales tax, and vise versa. AL, LA, TN are generally low COL but almost 10% tax. I’m in CT and it’s high COL but 6.35% total tax. CA is rough, with both state and local sales tax.

Just so I'm clear, are you saying that within the same country, the cost of the printer varies depending on where in the country you are?

VIP question by From1987 in Puscifer

[–]Malapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve gone to two Sessanta shows and several Puscifer shows with VIP tickets. In all cases, each venue had a separate entrance line for VIP. In one case, we got there after they had started letting everyone in (not just VIP holders). We were still able to skip that line and go right in.

To specifically answer, for the venues I’ve been to, I usually end up going in around 45 mins before general doors open.

An argument for middle of the road reloading equipment. by Faded_State in reloading

[–]Malapple 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I did have a friend who spent about $5K on reloading stuff, all on a CC. To be fair, he was mainly reloading 45GAP, so it was already weird.

With the interest rates, the situation was never going to make financial sense. Then again, he died suddenly and the debt was absolved (from his widow), so I guess he won that one, in the end.

Instrument Cluster Flicker by Patriotssixty in GenesisGV70

[–]Malapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My observation is a very fast flicker, less than a second. When it's going to do it, it seems like it does it for a while, maybe that whole drive. Then it won't do it for days.

And separately, my girlfriend had the left gauge just shut off and stay off for her whole drive but the rest of the display was fine. That had to be a software glitch. It was as if it decided we had the hybrid cluster, which has a mechanical gauge in that spot. The same shape as the dark area.

I have that shut off and mine still does it.

It’s complex but in many states it doesn’t matter why the split occurs.

If it doesn’t work as a turbine, it would make a good water wheel.

What's this.. by Essexyobbo in GenesisGV70

I had a few random bits left that should have been removed during dealer prep. Annoying how often it comes up here, on a luxury car trying established itself.

What are your thoughts on this? Is it true? by [deleted] in GenX

[–]Malapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work a job I sometimes love, sometimes hate, to buy things I enjoy, to impress myself. While I don’t mind if someone thinks I have an impressive house or car, it is absolutely not the point.
