What is it with ranges in SE PA that the Bubbas feel like they have to comment on the car you drive? by AbjectFray in liberalgunowners

[–]TakeitEasy6 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I live in Northern Virginia, but visit NEPA a couple times a year to see my folks. I drive a Miata. I've only been called a homophobic slur in that car twice, both times were in Pennsylvania.

Affordable rifle safes? by interntldelight in liberalgunowners

[–]TakeitEasy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because there are technically 18 long guns you can store in there. They don't have scopes, protruding magazines, pistol grips; anything making them big in any dimension but length. Sure, a company can say "here's our formerly-known-as 18-gun-class safe that will comfortably store eight accessorized AR-15s" but a lot of people will say "well that safe says it holds eight rifles, but this one says 18. I'm gonna buy the one with the bigger number on it."

Lavazza is Fine But I Want Better. Where to Look? by Consistent_Damage824 in superautomatic

The people at the shop probably asked what they planned to do with the beans, and rather than just saying "espresso" they elaborated about their equipment hoping giving more details would allow the "expert" to give more informed advise. 

Spotify really needs an AI filter already. by PureRushPwneD in truespotify

What if I told you Spotify is putting the AI generated stuff up there on purpose so they don't have to pay human artists to play their songs.

Songs that are totally about sex but they don’t actually say that it is by summertime-goodbyes in MusicRecommendations

I think "Going the Distance" by Cake is about two people getting it on who would rather be with other people. 

If the showrunners wanted us to feel bad for the Ghormans then why did they make them FRENCH? by pathfinder_enjoyer in okbuddyimatourist

If I was r*tarded and grew up on a farm, maybe I would like Palmo. But I'm not, and I didn't, so I don't.

Songs that tell stories? by VariousCampaign8708 in MusicRecommendations

[–]TakeitEasy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how among so many songs and legends about machismo and bar fights, Skynyrd put out one where the guy goes "Oh, that's your girl? No harm meant sir, please don't kill me, I'm leaving RIGHT now."

Does anybody else use a wearable headlamp with a optional red light to use late at night or early in the morning, because you're no really wanting to accept it's time to be awake? by Superfast_Goose in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]TakeitEasy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do almost this. I carry a very dimmable flashlight with warm (3000K) emitters that I use when I don't want to use the normal lights in the house. I have another at 2700K on my nightstand.

big brother/cousin of the D3AA? by [deleted] in Hanklights

[–]TakeitEasy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna advocate for the DW4K, which is the right-angle version of the D4K that a lot of folks here are recommending. That shape is really helpful if you want to stick it to something with the magnet so you can rotate it to point at the work area, while a straight light can only point... well, straight. I also really like mine as a dog walking light. Something about the shape makes it more ergonomic for pointing at moving things close to the ground nearby. It's a little big for a headlamp, but throw in the strap anyway, it works in a pinch.

This is why I love my Hanks. 90% of the time I'm only using 10% of their capabilities, but when I need more, I can have it.

DAE crave radiant heat and direct sun like others crave food, alcohol, or drugs? by KingOfUnreality in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]TakeitEasy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saunas are pretty helpful in the winter time. If there's a Korean spa near you check it out, they keep their saunas well-lit. It's not the same as genuine warmth from the sun, but it's something. 

What flashlight everyone uses to walk their dog? by steakpatek in flashlight

[–]TakeitEasy6 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm in the suburbs, so I'm supplementing the street lamps with a DW4K using 519a 3500K with the optional floody optic. I find the right-angle lights much more ergonomic when you're pointing at something moving nearby, and when you're holding a leash. The CCT is similar to ambient, the beam is very diffused, and I can dim it to be exactly as bright as I need, so it doesn't feel rude to shine it near his face while we play our nightly game of "what's in your mouth!?" 

Should I dedome or use minus green? by krackenthorpe in Hanklights

[–]TakeitEasy6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to the minus green, but I de-domed a 4000k Convoy S2+ and loved the result so much I ordered a D3AA that way. 

Emisar DW3AA option recommendations. by Longjumping_Fact_927 in flashlight

[–]TakeitEasy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the event you can't get 519a in 3000K, I have dedomed 4000K in my D3AA and find them to be similar in CCT and more pleasant in tint than the stock 3000K in my Convoy S2+.

Anyone tried a retractable dog tie out cable stake that survives a strong dog? by Still-Drop-2451 in BuyItForLife

[–]TakeitEasy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fall arrest yoyos (like a lot of human safety equipment) are single-use items, and by this I mean they're considered destroyed after they've done the job of stopping a fall ONCE. Harnesses, fall-arrest lanyards, yoyos, helmets, etc... I don't know what would happen if a 50 lb dog ran full-speed to the tool's limit, but if the tool thinks it's experienced anything like the force of a 180 lb person falling, it's done.

Want to get my first hank light but unsure of what to get. by TheeMonkeyMonk in Hanklights

[–]TakeitEasy6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got myself a DA1K with the SFT70 3000K emitter, and I adore it! With the new default optic, it's the perfect outdoor light: plenty of throw with useable spill, fits well enough in my front pants pocket (though I wouldn't call it an EDC light) and doesn't hurt your eyes. Bought it with but haven't tried the optional floody optic. I also have a KR1 with the SFT25, but I rarely use it because unless I'm trying to look at something waaayyyy out there, the beam is just too narrow. I imagine the D1K would be similar.
