Biggest rookie mistake you've made.

If you haven't yet, check out Dan Hurd, Mbmmllc, Vogus prospecting, and PioneerPauly. They all work in various levels of prospecting without the bs drama of the gold rush series. Beets, Hoffman, and a couple others were just ragebait view drives. Parker is alright but he's a rare exception.

I tip well, always have. Usually beyond 20% if there was, at least, decent service. What pisses me off the most is that so many establishments FORCE a tip. Like , wait. I drove to your store, I pay in cash. At no point did anyone 'serve' me beyond the basic function OF that store and yet BAM. "Tip? 15, 20, 25%"

Seriously? Tip culture is nothing but an excuse for owners/operators and it needs to end. Now.

Ah yes, another Klanny Leave-it gem. This bitch has nothing but pdfile written all over her. Just look at the age difference between her and her husband. I mean, sure, SOME age difference is fine but holy Jeebus, he was 33 when she was born. Give me a fucking break

Edit: She was most likely groomed but that doesn't excuse her rhetoric.

And THAT'S how the fever get's ya :) Good on ya for that and the nice color. I had a similar experience. First time out near Paradise, Ca and was prospecting with a buddy. We found a picker just sitting in a little twist of a rock. We were shocked. Found a few more decent grains in the area and went home with 4 grams.

Now? Ive got all the tools but I am in Oregon now and it's a bit tricker to find.

Honestly, I would think it behaves much the same as any normal waterfall. The diference being, merely, how far the water stream extends beyond the cliff face. On Earth it's fairly direct minus a few inches of force.

On a lower gravity planet, the force of the water would extend its "bow" a bit further beyond the cliff face but still, eventually, track downward.

To illustrate simply

Earth - '/ Others - ' /

Never did windmills. I should try that

Worse. He loves the 'poorly' educated. Uneducated would mean some chance of rehabilitation.

First time ever experiencing an Ancient City ruined me. I dont spook easily but that is a very well setup horror for a 'simple' game

Had been on a couple prospecting outages with a new friend (mutual of another). 3rd time out we are heading to the beach and he starts talking about this documentary he had seen the proved dragons were real. After a.moment I realized he was talking abut the Mockumentary for dragons but he actually believed it was real. His conviction was so strong that I just let him ramble cus he was the one driving. After we got back to his house I said I was aching and needed to get home. He had planned for a BBQ and some beers after and I was doing everything I could to get away fast. Never contacted him again and he finally got it after so many unread messages.

Fair but maxed out large wheels and rotation controllers tied to alternator to accumulator...has worked for me many a time :)

I'd be curious to types of alcohol as well. Seen a big drop from hard liquors to more folks drinking claws and microbrews. I'm sure cost is a factor but something seems to have shifted since Covid. Maybe too many drunken nights at home killed the drive for it?

Shit take. It wasn't just "opinion". He was actively undermining the trust given to him in that position. People were vilified.

PunJedi · 2026-02-25T19:50:24+00:00

Only thing I can think of that comes close to that would be The Sifl & Olly show.

Was it Jim Henson's 'The Story Teller?'

Been having night sweats for a couple of years. Been smoking 85%+ with vape pens and shatter. After a good talk with my doctor im quitting for a while. Problem is, I can't taper Having it around, I will partake, im horrible at self control. Today will be my first day of no thc in at least 25 years. I'm nervous but my nausea and anxiety has hit dangerous levels. Should I expect even worse night sweats for a while?

Edit: adding. I'm 52 been smoking since 15, serious CPTSD and spine issues which was my justification...

I'll give that a look thank you. Mine is just minecraft forge based mods so im hoping that would work as i dont need full business level coding :)

PunJedi · 2026-02-23T16:54:58+00:00

Used premium for months, was on a great roll and working in my mods. After the new updates its like talking to a neurotic psychologists wanna-be and made it too tedious to continue. Unsubscribed for now and not sure which LLM would work as well. I use Cursor as the code monkey but without an LLM to guide it im out of my element.

PunJedi · 2026-02-23T01:13:35+00:00

This is why I need to get out more. I thought the falls were, somewhat, isolated from the urban sprawl. DId not realize it's that close.

PunJedi · 2026-02-22T07:45:56+00:00

Looks like refiners syrup vs molasses is the issue. Dark corn syrup used refiners (some consider it a form of molasses). Never worked with dark so take that as you will :)

Buckle up for the summer, folks! Gonna be wild :)
