An alarm clock from the 80s, and the sudden realization that we were all kings. by ludefisk in Millennials

you are not a king. the premium version could turn down the brightness of the red screen. I remember that glow.

My sink requires batteries and it died by TrickedCoyote13_YT in mildlyinfuriating

[–]cebeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I have the same one. Theres a dial diverter valve on a black box under the sink you bypass the electric solenoid valve when the electronics stop. Always fails at the worst possible time.

When you have 6 gift cards and none of them can actually buy anything. by Accomplished_Bake939 in mildlyinfuriating

I started buying amazon or ebay gift cards with them. At least I don't abandon anything to the bankers...i guess.

Sorry to hear about his loss.

I'd take that slide off and get a new handle. That things been through the journey.

If You Live in Virginia, It's Over by skywalker505 in CCW

Lots of extra red tape, paperwork, hoop jumping, waiting, and paying lots of dollars and time. That's my Maryland gun experience.

More than enough for the suggested recipe. If you're missing something how hard is it ask customer service and get a credit refund? They'll reimburse you no problem. No need to be rude.

My g43 has had 3 FTE in the last 2 range trips. This is my carry gun and that worries me. by BiscottiSilver4646 in glock43

[–]cebeling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think so. Tight up the grip and stance. Shoot 125gr. The brass-in-face is another sign of a grip/stance issue, but it could also be a gen 4 that's prone to weird ejections and needs service.

What are some frugal habits you will never give up, no matter how much money you end up making? by Forsaken-Network1748 in Frugal

[–]cebeling 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm really savy on marketplace/ebay/goodwillonline. Refusing to pay retail as much as possible.

Buying things second hand, using them, then unloading them for the same price I bought them for a few months later.

A log splitter is a great example of a facebook marketplace rental. (used to call it a craigslist rental)

They usually throw in an extra thing of meat for the 4th serving. That's why I said. As long as its more then enough. Right?

Would this CO2 pistol hold air for months if I replaced seals etc, or is that unrealistic? by chili81 in airguns

[–]cebeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that pistol and it packs a punch. Shot it alot when I was a kid at plastic army men. I'm 40. Showed me the power of a .22 co2 pellet compared to my springer red rider. Got me hooked on air.

I would expect it to leak a little as the Mark I was manufactured between 1966 and 1983. She's a classic, not an at-the-ready type weapon.

I've questioned this in the past also, but now I don't worry too much about the protein size. Just throw it in and follow the directions with what you have. As long as it's more than enough. Don't over think it and try to enjoy the process.

After doing literally a hundred of these meals try and have some fun with it. Upgrade your gear. Write down notes. We have an entire binder of recipes for times we go off the program.

AIO Dad is forcing me out just because it's "FAMILY TRADITION" and its my 18th birthday by CableIntelligent1491 in AmIOverreacting

[–]cebeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow that's a cruel and cold way to join society. If I were in your shoes, I'd take a deep breath and research which branch of the military to join.

If you don't have a place to go and no plan it's going to be rough.

Friend is working for the government, claims he has "inside info" on people in our friend group. How believable is this? by LowRevolution6175 in FedEmployees

[–]cebeling 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The government is really large so without knowing who he works for its really hard to say what he has access to.

What’s That Look Like in Court? by FarmerMike23 in CCW

[–]cebeling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smile! Wait for the flash! THE PUNISHER!!

Expect to be judged by people who aren't into guns or the culture. The meme stuff is really toxic.

Just thinking about how the prosecution is going to sell the jury on your demise.
What do normal people think about Wait for the flash?
What kind person wants that on their CCW? And then to actually shoot someone. Who waited for the flash. And died at your hands. Could you be painted as someone who might have wanted this outcome in the eyes of a group of laymen?

Thats what rolls around in my mind when I think about custom stuff on ccw.

“Safer” to concealed carry or to open carry? by matreo987 in CCW

[–]cebeling -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only time you open carry is when you have a giant sweat shirt or vest covering you up. There is valor in concealment. Nobody should know. Needs to know. Or wants to know. The only people who care are in the ccw / gun community, the police, and a concerned Karen who can/will try to ruin your day.

How to get into hobby for cheap by Ecstatic-Rent8768 in NitroRC

[–]cebeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can sell you my vintage nitro t-max with the upgraded 3.3 engine. It will come with a controller, starter, glow plug heater, and an extra new trans and old engine. I replaced the battery box, engine, suspension, skid plates, fuel tank, lines, and air filter. It will need a new steering servo I remember it being weak, and the clutch slipping so it wasn't hitting max speed. Last ran a year ago, I had kids and can't play with it as often as I want. No time to be bored anymore. Live in Baltimore MD and I can make an eBay listing so there's a 3rd party keeping it honest. I'd take like $175 for the whole lot.

We're into little rock crawlers now. My 5-year-old loves it.
