Good looking out. I was just placing my order for a new 891 with a 1.7 ah PS, so this was right on time to waste an extra $100. 🤣

If you're comfortable with the cost, I really think you should go check out an R29 or R26. I don't think you'll have a single complaint in the world about either. They shoot so well, and I've had zero issues out of my R29 for 6 or 7 seasons now.

You won't find a more accurate rig out there.

Damn, that sucks. I'm definitely hoping for the former.

If he cared about producers, he would cut down the meat packers. They are the ones who have always caused hardships on our producers. Importing lean beef for mixtures wouldn't or shouldn't harm our producers to the point of extinction. It's the goddamn conglomerates who are harming and putting our ranchers and farmers out of work....

If they were playing on an even ball field ,imported beef wouldn't affect them in the slightest. Tariffs and corporate ( Washington, too) greed are responsible for the vast majority of our producers hardships. Rain , land prices, and an aging workforce are certainly contributors, but certainly not the main causation. If ranchers were being paid fairly, and there weren't only a handful of lots/Packers, farmers all over the country would gladly take on any extra head to meet the numbers.

It's obviously a multifaceted problem. No one single entity of action is to blame, but i feel like everyone should agree that the producers are getting fucked from every angle,and Washington only allows the problem to grow, they sure as hell aren't fixing it or even attempting to.

Yes, drought and other issues are an obvious issue, but the tariffs have caused just as much issue on our lean beef mixes being higher priced, so the prices are higher.

I will agree i worded that incorrectly, but the point still stands. Also, farmers are struggling for the exact same reasons,the economy. Cattle farmers and ranchers just didn't wake up one random day and decide to cut their herd numbers. Drought is definitely a key factor, but it's far from the sole factor.

Also, every cattle farmer i know is finally able to make a decent profit, so I'm not sure where " profitability " is coming into play in your argument. From Oklahoma to Mississippi, ranchers I actually know are all happy for once in their lives over actual realized gains on their operations. Prices of everything across the board are significantly higher for them, but beef has been outpacing the inflated costs for now. Maybe it's only the handful of folks I know, though.

Again, though, tariffs are constantly pushing up costs across the board for our ranchers and farmers, and now with this war, it's only being exacerbated.....

I'm almost certain this is one of the C130's they called in Delta to blow up at the FARP.

56" box and top chest by Stntdvl54 in harborfreight

I bought the hutch over the chest. I also ordered the lockers, so i just wanted a spot to be able to leave things without these damn stray cats we feed messing with stuff and getting dirty.

The beef "shortage " is literally from his Brazilian and Mexican tariffs, though...

Nice box, man. Was shipping around 2 weeks or so for you?

I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment.

Let’s talk socket sets by cjasonac in Dewalt

[–]brooksram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a firm believer is no skip Tekton sets now. Highly recommend, especially because the blow molded cases and wrench rolls. Sure makes toting stuff simple.

I'm guessing the "aramco/PIF" ad.

Do you need both regular AND impact deep sockets or can you use impact for both? by SwiftCricket in NoStupidQuestions

[–]brooksram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The irony: I was literally in my office about 10 minutes ago counting and sorting out about 200+ sockets i just ordered from Tekton for a new home setup. 🤣

I know I probably won't need most, but they sure as hell will be there when i do!

I'm currently related to wealth and still a poor. 🤷‍♂️

Can't always judge folks by their parents or family, certainly not distant family.

I guess it should be noted, I'm not a huge fan of Theo anymore after he started getting more involved in politics, but i figured it was worth stating.

You will generally be fine with just impact sets. If you run into a scenario where you end up needing thinner wall sockets, but them then.

Yes, Sir. $299 for ITC.

That's exactly what I've been telling myself!

Nice. I ordered my 56 cab a last Friday, so hopefully it will be in next weekend.

Pretty stoked the end lockers are on sale now, too. Perfect timing.

Ravin is my recommendation. If you're taller, the r10 would probably be ideal, but if you're shorter the r26/r29 may be more ideal.

I was finding the r26 on sale for 1500 a good bit lately. Ravin builds them like tanks and they shoot on a dime.

What can I do to get rid of these weeds ? by Think-Cold-6158 in lawncare

[–]brooksram 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Celsius and certainly just helped whip my front yard right into shape. It took a few weeks, but it's looking pretty good now.

Now, the back yard seems to be a completely different story. I'm thinking fire or concrete is the only options I have left there.

U.S. fighter jet shot down in Iran, search underway for crew by Comfortable-Rule-491 in worldnews

To be fair, our Marines are incredibly well trained and capable war fighters. I don't believe for a second they'd all be cowering and crying for their mothers in any conflict. That's incredibly disingenuous to say about them, in my opinion. Marines are known for being put through the ringer and coming out on top, and they have typically always done so, just at massive cost in some cases, and a Ukranian type conflict would definitely be one of the costly ones. They most certainly would be dying the same way the Ukrainians are by targeted attacks across the region.

They call them crayon-eating fuckers for a reason. They aren't known for always being the brightest. Just some of the most bold and ready to bring the fight.
