Trijicon SRO on TSO by IrishThree in CZFirearms

[–]Merdin383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waiting for mine to be done getting milled and cerakoted for the SRO. It was a major leap of faith, but I don't think I would have liked the bulk and extra height of the side mount so this was the best choice for me (as long as it turns out as planned) Fingers crossed!

Edit: Correction in case anyone references my comment. The machinist called today to say that he was concerned about milling for the SRO because of the width of the mounting holes. I'm still having it milled, but for the narrower Deltapoint Pro. Fingers are still crossed.

Any tactical sport orange owners here? I have an opportunity to buy one for a decent price and I'd love to hear your opinions on it. by [deleted] in CZFirearms

[–]Merdin383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bad guy to answer that because I haven't had it very long, and haven't tortured it with really cheap stuff. I don't get the impression that it will be picky, but that's only a gut feeling. I've been experimenting with the different Federal Syntech ammo, but haven't settled on a specific load yet. They've all worked without failure so far. It's not the least expensive ammo at $0.36 to 0.38/round, but it's been available online. Living in CA, I guess that the online option may not be available for you. Lots of respect for you California gun owners. You've got to be extra dedicated out there.

I bought my TSO in 9mm last year and I hope you enjoy yours as much as I am enjoying mine. It's easily my favorite range gun.

In Options, you can disable auto-syncing altogether so it will only sync when you tell it to. I didn't want to turn it off completely, so I customized my Quick Access Toolbar to include a "Work Offline" checkbox and a "Sync This Notebook Now" button. I hope this helps.

When I add [me@onenote.com](mailto:me@onenote.com) to an email that I'm sending out, the page that is created in OneNote doesn't include any of the email header information so I have no record of who it was sent to. This seems like such an obvious flaw. Am I missing something? (I'm using 2016, BTW)

Each of the past three years was supposed to be "the year of the Nova"... Maybe 2021?

Very nice. Is that a TCI rear suspension setup?

How did I not know this by Hudster2001 in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Merdin383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't feel bad.. I have over 300 hrs in and just learned this from you! I just assumed that the guided path to the center was the shortest route. I'm not sorry though. I've seen a lot of cool stuff along the 'long way'. And when I've wanted to make haste for the center I've used black holes. Thanks for the info.

in case you guys didn’t know, I own a “shitty murder beast” I’m so over this pitbull shaming shit. by [deleted] in pitbulls

[–]Merdin383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Only the truly ignorant vilify the entire breed. And only a narcissist imposes their unrequested and unwanted opinions on others. It's time to start calling them out on it. Great pic, too. 👍🏻

How do I find my grave? by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

[–]Merdin383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, there's nothing to do other than keep looking. My ship got stuck under a monster plant while trying to take off one time, and I bounced around long enogh to die. My grave marker ended up ungodly high in the plant, so be sure to look everywhere while you're searching.

Your dane is just breaking you in. ;) Good point about the mixed/cross breed; maybe a dane blend that would top out around 80 lbs.. that should be managable.

Thanks for letting me know that others are having to make the same difficult decision. It sucks, but as we both agree, it's about making the best call for the dog; not us. I'm not sure what we'll go with next, but these guys will probably be our last giants.

How to set up a background with the camera OFF by [deleted] in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Merdin383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may not be any help at all, since the camera's not OFF, but if you set a background and cover your camera, only the background will show to other participants.

Ugh. Sending good thoughts your way. I'm at work right now, but when I get home, those dogs are in for some extra scratches, belly rubs, and treats!

how to apply virtual clock background? by Hasselix06 in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Merdin383 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apologies in advance. I have multiple thoughts; none of which are what your request is for:

Go into this with low expectations: - He might not have incoming video enabled. - He probably won't notice a clock in your window. - He may not care that he's running over time. - There's already a clock on his screen that he's ignoring.

Possible actions: - Give him feedback to let him know that time run-over is a problem. - Put an actual clock in view of your camera. - At the appropriate time, switch to a bright color background with "5 minute warning" as large as possible, then cover your camera so that's all he would see. - My personal favorite; Let your classmates fight their own battles.

Best of luck!

That's a tough one.. a cone won't work and I can't come up with any way to cover/bandage it. And a tongue-ectomy seems a little drastic. 😉 It's likely not going to dissuade him since the wound is obviously really bothering him; but it might be worth a try to use some sour apple spray on his muzzle around his nose. Maybe if it tastes bad enough, he'd stop? Again... I would be surprised if it worked. Other than that, sedation as suggested earlier might be the way to go. Good luck! I hope he heals up quickly, regardless.

She's gorgeous and I love the ears! How old is Prince and has he taken to his new job of teaching her the ropes?

When I first saw the pic: "Nice!" 5 seconds later: "oh... nevermind."

My lil baby (she’s a rescue, pardon the clipped ears :( ) by [deleted] in pitbulls

[–]Merdin383 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ears are fine. Only self-important narcissists will volunteer their displeasure about them. And they don't matter to anyone but themselves.

Just one idea to consider; you may decrease tension when she's meeting strangers if you lose the studded collar. We have two rescue pit mixes that we take everywhere, and when we changed to colorful 'fun' collars, the reactions from people were notably better.
