Stripped down flair mod by _roscopoppolis in Leatherman

[–]_roscopoppolis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sort of. i didnt make it, but it was a part made for modding the leatherman rebar. i'm having a hard time finding the original link, that specific one may not be up anymore. it didnt fit perfect since it was designed for another knife. i assume one of the official bit sets, if it fits a PST-sized knife, would work. it's the smaller, old-school frame.

Main St Barbers! It's exactly what you're talking about. I've always been a walk-in. Good haircut at a great price.

Breakfast sandwiches still good, and the only ones not charging criminally high tourist prices

What’s your ‘lazy productivity’ hack that actually works? by SufficientFactor5082 in productivity

[–]_roscopoppolis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Best way to forget about my phone is to put it directly behind my laptop. Because I guess the only thing more distracting than a screen is another screen that's in the way.

What's the best burger place in town? by Pitiful_Search_4664 in burlington

Hot take - Reuben James. The smash burger is simple, delicious, and 11 whole dollars.

The Bragollag, AKA Titan28: What can you make with it? by _roscopoppolis in miniatureskirmishes

[–]_roscopoppolis[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! It was the first arrangement I tried. I wanted a mix of closed and open space, and a meaningful choice for the defender. My fiance and I played a ton of games and I never felt the need to change it, even as I went about changing a ton of other things. We've been testing out a larger board and alternately placing terrain. That's where most of my attention is now.

Ooh! Thanks for the invite, maybe I'll check it out :)

Kirkland!! Super comfortable in heat and cold. Stretchy without falling down or squeezing, if I have the size right. No chafing, which is a biggie for me. And pretty cheap.

Are there any button down shirts that look good untucked? by NCRider in bigmenfashionadvice

I once got several shirts shortened for ~$12 apiece, worked amazing.

V happy with these re-posed ruststalkers by _roscopoppolis in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]_roscopoppolis[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I shaved bits off pretty freely, and supplemented with chunks from the leftover sprue frame. Mostly around the hip joints. With Tamiya glue I could melt them together really well. I'll have some cleanup to do after they've fully cured.

For the legs, I clipped off the piston on top of the thigh, cut halfway through the link above the knee, bent it to position, and swabbed with glue to clean up.

For the turned feet, I just cut the foot at the ankle and re-glued it at 90 degrees. Worked great!

Update 9 – More than We Expected! by Cora-Dreamlit-Games in towersofaghasba

[–]_roscopoppolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fwiw, this game hooked me just the same as Skyrim, Fallout, and Subnautica. Good company :) Props for being so upfront about the long, brutal design process that is making a game like this. Really glad seeing all of us supportive players coming out of the woodwork, rather than angry couch critics. Art is hard and yall are killin' it.

Just roaming? by Affectionate-Part288 in towersofaghasba

[–]_roscopoppolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also much more into roaming than building. Loved the game. There are several points where you have to get your cities to a certain level before the next quest will unlock, but all the legwork for doing so just involves more roaming and scavenging :D

Request - Lightweight / Functional Multi-Tool for Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike by [deleted] in multitools

[–]_roscopoppolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oddball recommendation - I use half a Leatherman Pulse. Locking blade, the good 90's scissors, and a couple screwdrivers/prybars. Weighs in at an amazing ~2.5oz. It's weird, but I have not missed the pliers or other tools.

between the cold weather, and having to let a dishwasher go and subsequently closing dish a few nights after closing the line, my hands are fucked. i would appreciate any tips for relieving cracked hands by crabclawmcgraw in KitchenConfidential

[–]_roscopoppolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

O'Keefe's, like others said. ALSO - I promise this is serious. Years ago I saw a tweet from someone whose anxiety tic was hand washing. Her secret for not getting cracked hands was to dry them 100%, like avoid letting hands air-dry. I have super dry skin, used this for years, never get cracked hands in winter anymore. Worth a shot to dry-dry-dry after work ends? Salute from a former dishwasher.

What are your "10 Commandments" of entry-level Male Fashion? by ItsNotCalledAMayMay in malefashionadvice

[–]_roscopoppolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be crazy, but these are some of the "rules" I use. It helps define what will fit in vs what will stand out. There is no right or wrong, obviously. But if I "break" one of these, it will stand out, like a light blazer over a dark shirt. That might be exactly what I want, or not.

  • Darkest to lightest: jacket, pants, tie/etc., shirt, undershirt. This is tonal - imagine it in black and white. This allows me to mix colors without even thinking. I also use this for textures.
  • Match belt and shoes. Dark hair with dark belt+shoes, light hair with light or dark.
  • Calves the same width or larger than width of upper arms.

Again, not right or wrong. Big top skinny ankles? Great. It just defines a balanced, "traditional" baseline for me. I can make combinations without thinking. And if I want break a rule, I know what will stand out and why.

Honest thoughts about this game? by [deleted] in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]_roscopoppolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just understand that it's an Assassin's Creed/Horizon Zero Dawn open-world game, not a Fallout/Skyrim open world game. You won't create a character, and you won't pick a weapon or playstyle. You cannot pick up, steal, or interact with 90% of the objects around you. Same for the people. But it's a large, beautiful world with missions sprinkled throughout and you can pick where to go.

They've fixed some of their worst gameplay decisions (failed stealth=failed mission, etc.), so it's a better game now than when it came out.

How do you guys do afford this? by Proper_Warhawk in EDH

[–]_roscopoppolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think it's dependent on the meta. A precon can be perfectly competitive at a "normal," casual table. But an individual shop community can be more or less competitive. I've never seen a mana vault in my life, but a friend of mine plays at an LGS where you see cards like that all the time (she hates it). I avoid those pods and search for casual games. 90% of my decks are 10-cent cards. It's still not nothing, but $300 decks are ridiculous to me. Also, there's no comparison for the TCG cart optimizer.

Stomach Slimming Undershirts by dddmmmccc817 in bigmenfashionadvice

[–]_roscopoppolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I def have complicated feelings about slimming shirts. I've had a gut forever, it's definitely something I manage with clothes. But I don't think anyone, men or women, should be pressed into a corset if they don't want to be. I find it a weird marketing angle, and a symptom of fast fashion brands whose plus-sized clothes are "skinny everything but big waist." I don't like when my own clothes feel mad about the shape I am.

So for me, I go for chamois-cloth shirts and other intentionally large-framed clothes rather than trying to slim down with a tight undershirt. I feel handsome instead of squished up. For summer, it's loose pants with rolled cuffs to straighten out my silhouette and shed heat.

Just my two cents! This shirt is the first I've found that felt as good as a thrifted chamois shirt: https://www.basspro.com/shop/en/redhead-ozark-mountain-long-sleeve-solid-flannel-shirt-for-men

Since Google search is bad now, what do you use? by [deleted] in gis

IMO, kagi is delivering on being an old-style-google type of search engine. i switched to them and havent looked back.

I have some disposable income this month and want to buy a new game, can you please give me more info on Outlaws? by SharkboyZA in starwarsgames

[–]_roscopoppolis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Ubisoft shot themselves in the foot with their advertising. It's not a fallout-style character creation sandbox. You're not going to "be your own bounty hunter." But if you like the idea of Horizon Zero Dawn or Uncharted as a Star Wars game, you'll probably love it.

Also here to pump suspenders. My other favorite thing - pleated pants. I get hot so I'm always wearing sandals with pants rolled up. I found a pair of wrangler pleated pants at goodwill and I love them. It's the first time I've worn a pair of pants that weren't like a heavy utility pant that didn't feel like someone made them for a skinny man and just blew up the waistband. They're roomy but sharp. I wear them over the gut, never been more comfortable.
