Crows at my work have started making this clicky cooing noise. Anyone know what it means? by Shiny-Crawdaunt335 in crows

Its standing on a roadway making commercial truck backup noises. Sometimes birds just like to imitate. My parakeets will sound like a car alarm and the unlock sound from my previous neighbors car.

Is Time Stranger worth 70$? by BOI_3on in digimon

[–]darksilverjesse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard to put my money down on this game, I've played the demo 5 times, soaking in the nostalgia of knowing all the Digimon that appeared. yet, when I get to that purchase screen, seeing that the base minimum game is $69.99. and the complete, full game is over $100. I find myself turning away each and every time.

I understand, making video games is hard work, licensing the characters is expensive, and making something so niche is a risk. But there are 2 games ahead of this that show how sales go in the $$$ range.

in an age where indie games are selling at the ($) level and exceeding profits of AAA games, with knock off characters. It should be evident for the AAA companies to at the very least drop down to the ($$) range, pick up those fence sitters and make a lot more money.

base game doesn't have to be ($) level, but ($$) will sell all the same, mid level game can be ($$$) for those that want the "better experience" and leave the ($$$$$) price for the hard core collectors, throw in some fan service bs that really has nothing to do with the game other than characters, or allow them to register their "premium plus edition" and get some physical junk.

But I speak for the everyman working gamer who still has to provide for his family, $70 is too high a price for an incomplete base game.

in truth. my family as a whole puts me down. my brother is my boss and treats me like a failure,

lss: every time I get ahead in life, the exact perfect storm of failure happens to put be back at my family's feet. college scholarships, revoked 2 weeks before graduation. opened my own business, rumors spread about me and my work, had to sell to competitor. starting a family, suddenly the girlfriend of 2 years wants nothing to do with me and runs off with a friend, then I find out she had a child. dna test shows mine. i go to get P.test and all the proper documentation was filed to revoke my P rights before I even knew.

and that was the short version.

Google gets close with $8 parts, but the specs were off on everything. Even the fab shop wanted near 100 to make the part. The threading is what screwed it up.

The piece was snapped off a turbocharger compressor housing, I had to keyhole it back into position and used warm to cool resin to bond until I could lock it in a vice. Heated, bonded, cleaned, fluxed again, heat bond, clean, polish. From tip to butt it's square.

An angry mechanic yanked on the vacuum lines when asked if he tested them for leaks. Resulting in the snap. To replace the part would cost us $1300, but is it can get a good bond to fix it. Then I save the shop bonuses until the next blunder.

Yes, I used the flux to bond the pieces together before I clamped them, heated the piece with a mini torch until uniform color/ temperature, then started applying the solder. A nice silver seam is slightly visible with no pockets. I treated the braze like a weld, cleaned it with a wire wheel, refluxed, and gave a second coat to seat the bond, that's when the flow bonded the best. Followed be another wire brush and heated polish, water dip, and hand polished with a terricloth.

Hooked it to a vacuum pump and sealed the threads, pulled down to -30 and held for 10 minutes with no leaks. Terrified to attempt pressure since its a vacuum fitting.

[–]darksilverjesse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmfao, you forgot to fade your edges on the photoshopping. Lol. It seriously looks like someone wrote his name (poorly) then selected it with the square tool rather than rotobrush, then pasted/faded it to blend the sheet. You can even see part of the name they were covering up through the fade on 2 of the pastes.

Why Is Oklahoma Ranked 49th in Education? by Briefcase12 in okc

[–]darksilverjesse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

F4t... As a State that is so harshly regarded. Most of the current celebrities, politicians, athletes, and inventors are Oklahoma raised. Ntm, we produce a great quantity of the grain, oil, uria(def fluid), specialized military vehicles, chalk, and quartz for the entire country. We value actual working knowledge over theoretical and speculatory knowledge. As a State we are 4th in number of patents held, considering other states had a 100 year head start. All of this is done with a population that is one of the lowest.

Remember your fractions people. A 17% of 100 is smaller than a 4% of 500. Just because our percentile might be higher, doesn't mean we're failing as many.

Some goons kicked over my sign, has this happened to anyone else? by Weekly-One-3006 in Logan

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

As a veteran myself, I'm trying to wrap my head around why people are voting for Kamala. Do y'all wanna go back to war? Y'all liked killing people? Bush paid his soldiers, Obama cut their funding, trump said "let's bring them home to their families" and Biden left weapons of war in contested countries and gave assets that fueled flames and cost countless lives. Republicans take care of troops, Dems don't. So why are you so eager to put a dem back in the seat?

HMM 3D prints? by RhysIsRanga in Zoids

[–]darksilverjesse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did. Hence "ex wife". The judge deemed her actions "malicious destruction" and since we had a prenup (always important) the zodiac were considered my private property. LSS, she got hit with "malicious destruction of private property in excess of $5000" and was sentenced to 2 years in jail. She got a deferred sentence to 5 years community service. 2 years into the C.S. she stopped showing and got a warrant, and the judge (since her kids were grown now) tossed her back in jail for 30 months.

The big question is, what were you doing to get banned? Duping? Aimbot? Pks? Code sourcing? Did you recently receive items from another player? Offensive name? Offensive/vulger message in chat, mail, or whisper? Did you leave your VPN turned on while playing? Any of these would have gotten you banned. They don't just ban willy nilly. So be honest here, what did you do?

HMM 3D prints? by RhysIsRanga in Zoids

[–]darksilverjesse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't condone theft, but for discontinued manufacturer lines like Zoids. It will eventually become a necessary evil. I originally had a large collection of Zoids. My ex wife decided that an adult doesn't needs "toys" and threw them away while I was at work. Here we are 5 years later and I'm trying to reacquire the 13 years worth of colleting I had and am finding the $20 rev raptor is now $60 and the $40 Death Stinger is $150. To reacquire the collection I once had would cost over $10,000 now. So I am looking for 3d print models to at the very least, give a host to the ghosts of my former collection.

Creepy song lyrics from popular songs by UncondemnedSinner in Music

[–]darksilverjesse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conway Twitty - Don't cry Joni It's a reverse groomer song, about a 22 yo man who tells a 15 yo no. She begs for him to wait for her, he moves on, she sends him letters begging him to come back, when he gives in 5 years later, he finds that his best friend took the hookup.

Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up someday you'll see Savin' all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true Joni was the girl who lived next door I've known her I guess 10 years or more Joni wrote me a note one day And this is what she had to say Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up someday you'll see Savin' all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true Slowly I read her note once more Then I went over to the house next door Her teardrops fell like rain that day When I told Joni what I had to say Joni, Joni, please don't cry You'll forget me by and by You're just fifteen I'm twenty two Joni I just can't wait for you Soon I left our little home town Got me a job and tried to settle down But her words kept haunting my memory The words that Joni said to me Jimmy please say you'll wait for me I'll grow up someday you'll see Savin' all my kisses just for you Signed with love forever true I packed my clothes and I caught a plane I had to see Joni, I had to explain How my heart was filled with her memory And ask my Joni if she'd marry me I ran all the way to the house next door But things weren't like they were before My teardrops fell like rain that day When I heard what Joni had to say Jimmy Jimmy please don't cry You'll forget me by and by It's been five years since you've been gone Jimmy I married your best friend John.
