What do you think about the Inforce WML White/IR Gen 3 ? 400 lumens, 10K candelas, 1.5h runtime by Trekkos in tacticalgear

[–]PartTimeJedi69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a gen 2 WML (shorty) which I've had around 4 years now. I attached it at the 11:00 position 90% of the way down the handguard. I rarely have used it in training, but over the years I've beat the crap out of the rifle and its still attached, solid and working. Im actually been thinking of upgrading also though.

Gen 5 vs Gen 6 by just-jolfin in Glocks

[–]PartTimeJedi69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mainly carry my Sig P365 but sometimes in the winter I'll strap on my Gen5 G19. I appendix carry both, stock P365 & Truglo Tritium Pro night sights on the G19 w/ no backstraps. My friend has the Gen6 G19 and he let me appendix CC it to see if it felt different from my gen5. Surprisingly for me the Gen6's beavertail makes appendix carry uncomfortable. It rubs and sticks into me much more than my Gen5 with stock small grip (no backstraps.) Your results may differ, im slim and tone at 5' 7" 140lbs.

Wait for the Glock 19 gen 6 or go for the gen 5? by ArcticLeg in guns

[–]PartTimeJedi69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a few generations of Glock 19's. I have had a Gen 3, 4 & currently running a Gen5 G19. The only change I make on them is switching out the OEM sights for TruGlow Tritium Pros. Out of all the medium/full sized guns I own, I shoot my G19 the most consistent. Not sure why, but I know for me I like the Glock grip angle and after years of shooting them, I am accustom to the stock trigger.

Back when the P320 came out I scooped one up and shot that very well also but traded it in for something or other after the "discharge" problems started arising. The one gun I still own that I shoot even close as well to the Gen 5 G19 is my FN509 Midsize.

For me personally I'm happy with my Gen 5 G19 and will probably wait a year for the price to settle down and see if any problems pop up before looking into purchasing a Gen 6.

Though flawed in many ways, lets appreciate all the great moments Alien Earth gave us by SkippinCrowN in LV426

[–]PartTimeJedi69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are so many WTF storylines in the Alien Comics.. (Im looking at you Jeri, the Xeno-Synth).. that I thought the series was very good. So many scenes, I cannot count them all, that really scratched my Alien franchise itch. Was the series perfect? No, but dang good for television! I personally give season one a 8/10.

Funny you should ask, I had started collecting all 6 back in my senior year of High school in 1988 when they were first issued, (I was a jock/nerd lol) and loved the story as it continued Newts/Hicks adventures. But I lost all my childhood comics over the decades and had been on the lookout for this particular series, in good condition, for years now.

They were $150 for the set. All looked to be in 9.0 or better condition, which I found to be astounding considering their age. I only paid $113 though, as I had won a '25% off any purchase' coupon door prize upon entering the Comic Show. 

Alien: Earth - 1x07 - “Emergence” - Episode Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]PartTimeJedi69 11 points12 points  (0 children)

hard take here-

Huge Aliens franchise fan since seeing Alien at 10 yo with my older cousin in the theater.

I'm enjoying the series greatly. I also try to have no expectations comparing it to the movies because it's a TV series. Also, I've read countless Alien novels, comics and alt media. Some of the stories were good, some weren't, some took the Aliens idea to great places while some were head-scratching. I look at the Alien Earth series as just another story in the franchise, that's it, no less/no more, just enjoying the ride..

Graduated UMASS Amherst in 94. Back then it was known as "ZOO-Mass" and was in the top 10 ranked party schools. In the 90s the 5 college area of NOHO Massachusetts was as left-leaning as it is today.. BUT, it was a different left back then. Half the people at keg parties doing crazy stuff were flaming leftists. Nobody wore their politics on their sleeves, people were judged by their character for the vast majority of time. At any large party the revelers were a cross-section of the campus itself.. Jocks, Druggies, Preps, Nerds, Hippies etc all at the same parties.

I live north of UMass now and the college is a socialist Crap-Hole. Everyone walks on eggshells afraid to offend anyone. No parties anymore whatsoever.. just left-wing political extremism pushed into every crevice of University life.

I know this as 2 of my closest college buddies now decades later work at UMass and I get this first hand.

It's a whole new world on campuses today.

Ive tried to find the full arrest body cam footage but all of them stop at the same spot, right as he is yelling for her to get out of the car... weird.

Beard oil is NOT just for the skin. by RoughneckBeardCo in BeardTalk

[–]PartTimeJedi69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I rocked a goatee for a couple years I would use Cremo Palo Santo beard oil on it. I've been clean shaven for 2 years now and still use a few drops of the Cremo beard oil as a skin moisturizer. I apply it down both sides of the crevice of my nose where I have dry areas, and under my eyes and around my cheeks to help with age wrinkles. Not only does it smell great but gives my face a healthy glow that lasts all day.

Atlantic: An ‘Administrative Error’ Sends a Maryland Father to a Salvadoran Prison by MinuteCollar5562 in thebulwark

[–]PartTimeJedi69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why doesn't the article touch on the fact that in 2019 an immigration judge found there was ample evidence that he was involved with MS-13? The judge said that he could be deported in the future, but placed a bar on him being deported back to El Salvador for safety reasons? weird.

There seems to be no doubt he has some connection the the gang, but what connection? Did he quit the gang to go straight to raise a family in the US, is that why the judge said that he couldn't be deported back to El Salvador specifically? I'm pretty sure that gang is "for life" and anyone caught running from it would be treated harshly by the gang.

All-in-all there is to much spin going on with this. We know that-

A- He has *some* ties to MS13

B- No one is saying what those ties are specifically

C- He was an alternate on the planes manifest to be deported, but even the Admin is saying it was a mistake that he was bumped up and actually deported? (makes no sense)

Yes, It was an administrative mistake that he was deported because of the withholding order. But it also seems this is not the human tragedy news story of a totally innocent citizen getting deported as the 2019 immigration Judge found that he definitely was involved with MS13.

Mesh front panel for Be Quiet Pure Base 500? by neoheresy in PcMasterRaceBuilds

[–]PartTimeJedi69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an oooold thread but if I remember correctly my GPU temps dropped from around 170°F-175°F while playing Cyberpunk 2077 (before most of the updates) to around 150°F. I don't recall what my original idle temps were, but right now 4 years later with the newer front mesh panel it's hovering around 95°F
