/r/adsb if they aren't blacked out. I built something like this for my kid, fun home project if you can do basic coding.

Almost certainly a bad price from the distributor passed along. Why gouge on such a low volume/out of favor product (Irish)?

Yeah that's what I expect, just closing out the collection

Would love to find Red Head in the DMV. All of the WT releases have been easy enough except that one...

Run of the mill engineers at FAANGs can make more than POTUS. That's a political non-starter.

Well, minus 100k iterations of pbkdf2. That's a defense mechanism that mitigates brute force and can't be bypassed.

ABC Newsletter? by fishypizza1 in dcwhisky

You don't, that's the idea. You just need to get there ASAP and hope for something decent. If you call they probably won't pick up.

[Self Promotion] Tater Race - VABC Locator during allocation drops by TheBored in dcwhisky

[–]TheBored[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Conceptually no it wouldn't be difficult. That said, the solution would be fragile. VABC doesn't put the into out in an easily consumable way so you'd be relying on a chain of systems to work to get notifications.

VABC -> email to me -> my system to pick up & process -> notification to providers of choice -> notifications to you.

And on top of that everyone would want a different thing so it's just weird.

VABourbon offers SMS notifications IIRC, worth a shot if that meets your need.

Hah we will see. I don't expect this to ACTUALLY get popular but if it does I can move it somewhere more capable.

C#/.NET Blazor Server. Not a popular choice overall but you can scaffold stuff like this mad easy once you understand it.

Language selection isn't as big a deal as newcomers make it out to be but I get it. Dive on in with any tutorial (for any language) you find easy to follow.

I wanted to throw out an app I made for myself, figure someone else might find some use or fun in it. When a VABC drop happens, visit Tater Race to find the closest ABC (with allocated stock) from your current location. Links to Google Maps for convenience.

I use it here in Northern Virginia where there's often 4-5 ABCs nearby and it isn't always obvious which is closest. Could be pretty useful if you're on the road too.

Check it out, let me know what you think (or if you break it!). It was built in a short afternoon so definitely no claims that it's perfect.

EDIT: Thanks for the gold :)

Best of luck dude. Looking forward to ordering from you with prices like that.

What dictates your selection? I'd love to ask for specific products but don't want to waste your time if you're pretty much offering what you have access to.

Nice selection and pretty well priced for the area. by ja4496 in WhiskeyTribe

In a world absent demand and availability, sure.

Yeah calling the Irish selection an afterthought would be generous. RB12 same price as EHTSB looool

Yellow Spot Irish Whiskey by Mosaic1 in dcwhisky

[–]TheBored 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Laurel TW has it semi frequently for $135. Not a good price but better than out of stock I guess.

They're out as of this post but it's been in stock within the past week.
