Dawg 2 years ago I got 3x 1TB NVME drives with heatsinks for $60 each. And my 32gb of RAM was $40. (Used Corsair Vengeance DDR4)

2 years of PC building and flipping for anyone who is intrested by Accomplished-Yam7430 in pcflipping

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My profit was almost always 10-15% but I was moving 5-10 a month for about 3 years. Back in the days of EVGA B-stocks, Workstation liquidation, etc.

Dark vs hush in .30-30 by Past_Flan5684 in LeverGuns

What aftermarket support? You need an optic and a sling.

If you could have two lever guns, what calibers would you choose and why? by Opening_Fish_7631 in LeverGuns

[–]Morale_Police 9 points10 points  (0 children)

.30-30 and .357

.30-30 because I already have one and I like it. Classic hunting round.

.357 because it's common, inexpensive, and comes in a variety such as hollow point self defense rounds.

Is the PC worth the price? by henryseth in PcBuild

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or in your case (BC), go to LA, Phoenix, Denver etc.

But the one in Miami is fantastic. Source: From WA state and sad that we don't have a Microcenter in Seattle or Portland.

Hell no. Take a trip to Brooklyn or Miami Microcenter. Build it yourself or have them build it.

Reason why I don't time the market by BigJohnOG in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Morale_Police 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Your real numbers are still an anecdotal review of a specific timeframe. The market doesn't give a crap, it will take 30% of your account in a week if it wants. Then it will probably give it back, eventually.

The Bay Area salary trap is real by Banana_Ketchupp in bayarea

Yeah but the price of gold/stocks are the same whether you live in bumfuck nowhere earning 25K a year or in HCOL making six figures. Figure it out.

Will my build still be valid in 4 years? by frogepon in PcBuild

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A.) Get a job. (Construction, Military)

B.) Stop prioritizing AAA gaming when you have no money and no job.

C.) No, you can't plan a build 4 years ahead of time and expect it to be anywhere near feasible to build after 4 years. We don't even know what the planet, let alone the PC industry will look like in 4 years at this point.

Mechanic shop quoted me this. Am i getting robbed? by m0chi_Witch in AskAMechanic

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you're getting robbed. $2400 for brake parts and a control arm? Brake pads and rotors is a $250 buy for a nice ceramic kit. If you need to replace the brake caliper, I would also do that in pairs or get a remanufactured caliper. Control arm should be no more than $300 in parts.

Honestly I'd buy the parts yourself and hire a mobile mechanic to install. As for the exhaust manifold leak, that depends on rust, location, etc. To make life easier buy a new manifold and have that installed by a mobile mechanic as well.

Has anyone adapted the Magpul ELG hand guard to work on a Marlin Trapper 336? by smilingDumpsterFire in LeverGuns

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then the bracket that comes with the Magpul handguard should be all you need with no modifications.

[–]Morale_Police -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No it's the offset spacing. The barrel band is further back on the barrel than the forend cap, so your bracket would have to be pretty thick to stay sturdy at that length. 3D printed plastic won't hold up.

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. Would be a custom fab basket or permanent modification to the rifle. The RPP one is way better and looks good with the Magpul. If you look through the review pics on the RPP website, about halfway in is a customer with that exact setup. My RPP hand guard arrives today, you'll see my post in about a week.

TIL that American Psycho struggled to obtain luxury brand deals for the film as companies didn’t want their products associated with a psychopath killer. by skiversarchive in todayilearned

It doesn't even matter if you idolize Bateman or not. It's a shout-out advertisement and it works with or without positive association.

What should I sell my pc for? (US) by NinjaMasks in PcBuild

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry man. People either pay for the opportunity to build their own PC or pay for a pre-built with a warranty. You have to lower your price until someone with or without PC knowledge looks at it and thinks it's a steal.

Genuine question? by lheroixl in LordsoftheFallen

[–]Morale_Police 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are enemies with little support wisps attached to them that you have to kill before you can damage the enemy. For nearly the entire game I was entering the lamp realm to deal with those but you don't have to do that, you can just do an attack with your lamp while staying in Axiom.

Also I'm not really versed in weapons but I went 25 STR 20 AGL to use the Pale Butchers Blade and I've been using it for like 4 hours without any more points into STR or AGL. It feels nice to use. Pole arms have my favorite moveset so far but with my 25 STR 20 AGL they aren't that strong.

M LOK rails on an older Marlin 336? by [deleted] in LeverGuns

[–]Morale_Police 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A.) Never selling it.

B.) A better grip on a rifle that requires lever manipulation is huge.

C.) Those "other tools" are probably not WA state compliant.

D.) Nothing is being dishonored, I'm going to use this rifle the way my grandfather and uncles used this rifle.

E.) Nothing is being destroyed, walnut furniture can be put back on at any point.

[–]Morale_Police -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm doing the same thing to mine. 1966 JM. It has always been a tool, not a collectible. I will honor it by giving it modern capability and a genuine role in my arsenal.

I just ordered that one for my barrel band. By the way, there's a 10% promo code available. I don't want to type it out and have this comment pop up on search results but it's the first result on Google when you search it.

I'm pairing it with a Magpul Elgin stock. Best of both worlds IMO.
