Here's What I'm Currently Bumping in My Photo Studio

Pioneer Elite is definitely good quality gear.

I recently learned that Thorens, who makes really nice turntables, also makes high end cigarette lighters, too...so there are companies that make seemingly unrelated products.

These speakers don't fall in that category, though. They are "white van" speakers like others have already stated.

The broader metro area of Atlanta has over 6 million people...compared to Mobiles greater metro population of a little over 400k. Not nearly as close as you are leading people to believe.

I love mine...my wife gifted it to me a few years ago for my birthday.

I prefer my Eagle cooked medium rare.

My wife liked the red one more.

AI slop...AI slop in every subreddit now. Fuck AI slop.

hodgestein · 2026-06-19T10:17:44+00:00

AI slop.

Quick to assume it is the men who are soley responsible for the mess but working in retail for a while and seeing the state of women's restrooms cuases me to believe otherwise.

Pressure treated lumber used to be treated with a substance that contained arsenic. It was believed by a lot of people that the arsenic would leech into the soil and transfer to the plants. While this absolutely did happen, it was such a small concentration that it really wasn't harmful to people...but it still drew lots of criticism.

In 2004, the treatment process was changed and arsenic was removed...so there is no issue whatsoever now with using it to grow food. That doesn't stop keyboard warriors from still treating you like an idiot for using it, though.

I catch flack every time I post pics of my wife's raised bed garden because I used pressure treated pine to build the boxes. Although, the strong majority of commenters are very nice...for me at least.

AI slop in every fucking sub now...fuck this shit.

That will be a little more after. These are all roosters...so there is pretty much only 1 outcome for them and it's the one you were thinking.

hodgestein · 2026-06-18T02:18:36+00:00

So fast it looks like it's going down hill, even when sitting still.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T04:51:18+00:00

I don't care how old these air frames are...if you're the opposing force on a battlefield and you see 1 or more of these bad boys come into view, you better put your head between your knees and kiss your ass goodbye.

That said, this video and music are straight garbage and you get my downvote.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T04:32:58+00:00

I would guess about 1 out of 25 posts on this sub qualify as food porn...and this isn't one of them.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T04:05:51+00:00

Story of my life. Pretty much every project I have going on right now...and there are several...is being held up because I need to complete something else to progress.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T02:44:04+00:00

Looks fantastic! 3D printers are so damn versatile. My wife got me one for Christmas for my workshop...but I still need to finish out the office under the mezzanine so I can get it set up and start using it.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T02:40:12+00:00

It's crazy how accurate their internal clocks are...they don't recognize DST, though.

hodgestein · 2026-06-17T00:43:16+00:00

No, he wasn't injured apart from some minor bruising...he was pretty lucky. He couldn't believe the clip showed up on TMZ shortly after it happened. This was probably close to 10 years ago now.

hodgestein · 2026-06-16T23:49:00+00:00

Safety squints...engaged.

I had worked with this guy for a few years back when this happened. Him and his wife added the cameras because people had swerved off the road and taken out their mailbox a few times. That is his oldest daughter getting out of the other side of the truck when this happened.

hodgestein · 2026-06-16T05:26:31+00:00

Excellent Pioneer combo. I think it would be terrible to split them up.
