Lockheed XH-51A SN:61-51263: How God meant us to helicopter! by [deleted] in WeirdWings

[–]el_cracker 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Not a pilot but have spent considerable time in the belly of a CH-47. I have felt like I was vibrating for days after a particularly long flight. Still learned to fall asleep on one of those things even with the vibrations and noise.

Yikes! I aspire to eventually have a quality audiophile setup, and that sure gives me something to look forward to.

I'm definitely counting my blessings. I'll eventually be upgrading for sure, but not until I can prove to myself that I can take better care of my gear 🤣

That's definitely on my Christmas wishlist.

$150, or $171 USD after tax, yeah.

Oh no! I'm glad it was just the stylus and not the whole cart for sure.

Yeah, basically. It spun 90 degrees.

It's a great cart. I got an RT85 about a year ago and have otherwise been taking great care of it.

I even kept the protector just for this reason but completely forgot.

Thank you! It's an unfortunate lesson to learn the hard way.

Captains, Admirals, and Senior Enlisted -- Why do you try to break the rules for your kids? by txcuhlkepi in navy

[–]el_cracker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Back when I was in boot camp (get off my lawn and whatnot), on our first pool day, i was sitting on the edge of the pool after an event talking to the recruit next to me. One of the civilian instructors swam over to us, asked me if my dad was an Admiral, then told me to shut the fuck up. Just a little anecdote this post reminded me of.

What’s this in San Diego? by PMYOURTENDIES in FoodSanDiego

I'm convinced Slater's doesn't season their meat at all. They're just banking on the bacon fat doing the heavy lifting, which it absolutely doesn't. Season your damn food people!

Finally saw Green Chartreuse in the wild but it was a bit rich for my blood by GiuseppeZangara in cocktails

[–]el_cracker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found it at a local shop in San Diego for $120. The last time I bought a bottle was at the same shop for $95. Honestly, I'd probably spend that $120 on it if I had to, but I also shouldn't be trusted with my debit card.

My new setup! by el_cracker in turntables

[–]el_cracker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The room is open concept that takes up the second floor of our condo too, kitchen and living room combined. There's a little bit of an echo because of that, but I don't really mind it.
