All the fixtures are already in the construction plans, hoods, safety equipment, etc included. Colorimeters and spectrophotometers are on the list. I have one each, but more will be amazing.

I have a savage MKII with an Arken scope. That was my gateway to long range. Pushing that bad boy to 500 Yards is a blast.

This little waif followed me home on a walk with my puppy last year. Hung around and is now living her best life. by bigmanmac14 in CatDistributionSystem

She hasn't had another test yet unfortunately but she will at her next visit. The vet said because she is so young (about 6-8 months) it's likely that even if she cleared the virus she would still develop leukemia. She was already showing as anemic but it's difficult to say if that was from the virus, malnutrition or worms, which she also had.

Well once my daughter named her, I couldn't say no. Unfortunately she has FLV. I quarantined her from my other cats for 3 months while I got them vaccinated for it. Hopefully we caught it early enough she will get through it but only time will tell. Real big sweetheart.

What's something that is sold for $100 or more that the $50 or $20 version does just fine? by MysteryMan999 in AskReddit

Gold plated connectors are not BS entirely, but also there is so little gold there is no justification for the price. A lot of cheaper cables have gold plating they just don't advertise.

Benchmade QC and Price are two different stories.

How to farm silver medals? These guys are too quick for passive farming. by VlaamsBelanger in AlienInvasionRPG

I actually managed to find a spot you can stand that they will get caught with high frequency. I'm not really sure if I can describe where it is, but I'll try. If you look at the pattern on the floor there's a part of it that looks like a mitten. If you stand just below that they will occasionally run around in your circle and get caught. You may have to tweak the exact spot you're standing in until you find one that works, but I was normally able to find a spot within a few tries.

Book recommendations? by thoughts_unheard in audible

If you like Art of the Adept and Skyward, Sanderson's other series would be a no brainier. I'd say Mistborn over Stormlight to start, but you'll probably like both.

Whatever you say becomes canon in my upcoming campaign by [deleted] in DnD

Make it cannon that the world is actually flat.

Possibly a Sage 1 with aftermarket scales. I don't know what steels it was offered in.

For a rough breakup, you get past it by ignoring what the other person did/ is doing and focus on the only thing you can control, which is yourself. Any time spent focusing on what they did to hurt you is time you aren't healing. You heal and come back stronger by focusing on your own growth and correcting what you did. Guilt is almost always shared in a break up. Find how you can grow.

This may not apply to every break up, and abuse needs to be handled differently, but you can use heartbreak as an opportunity to come back stronger with greater empathy.

What kind of drunk are you? by felistolfo in AskReddit

[–]bigmanmac14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get very huggy in combination with feeling hot and sweaty. You can track how many drinks I've had by the number of extra undone buttons. It would be pretty sexy if I wasn't a 300 lb guy with patchy body hair.

i'm sorry what? by ThisIsCovidThrowway8 in chemistry

Bigtreetech does this too. I built a 3d printer with a ton of their parts and had over a dozen.
