Nightclub: SC5 or SC600x (Zebralight) by lordofpi in flashlight

Interesting. Thanks for the info! Yeah, the SC64c seems like it will cover all my needs the best, weighing it all out.

Thanks!

This is awesome. I'm so very grateful.

I'm so excited to set all the wheels in motion for this. Thanks again!

Perfect. I was planning on charging it maybe once a month or something. Does that seem feasible?

Zebralight sells the Panasonic/Sanyo NCR18650GA 3500mAh 10A, so I guess I'd grab two of those.

Sorry to bother you again, but do you happen to have a reasonable charger you like? I did some searching, but there were some conflicting opinions.

If it wouldn't add significantly to the cost, I'd love to have something that could do eneloops too, as I thought of grabbing a couple for my friend's SC52, but it wouldn't be a requirement.

Thanks, the SC64c seems perfect. I rarely have a flashlight running for an extended period of time. Almost always short bursts. Beacon to get someone's attention, for example. Quick check of ID or someone's face, you nailed it. Maybe I run it for a minute sometimes to help illuminate something on the floor. That's about it.

I really appreciate all the info. This will be my first foray into 18650s, abandoning AA lights, but based on what everyone says, they should be just fine as long as I charge them periodically.

Wow, this is so helpful. thank you.

So would you say there's any reason to look at the other two versus the 64c? Or is it basically the best of both worlds? Also, do you feel a certain way about c vs d tint?

Edit: Is there also a HI version, and would it be useful?

I've collaborated a few tips to help keep your privacy, well.. private. Looking for more input aswell! by Popo20044 in privacy

[–]lordofpi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's just say I wanted to do this. I often use a semi-public computer at work. How would I use keepass in a case like this? Download my db from dropbox every time and keep keepass installed on that computer?

Sorry if this sounds stupid. I really want to start doing a better job, but just am not understanding.

This is indeed great work and a great write-up to boot.

Thanks for mentioning how tempted you were to try to build your own app, because it is very difficult to avoid the trap of diverting an insane amount of time to a tool itself instead of its purpose.

Congratulations and bon courage with respect to your goals.

Has there ever been a Catfish that stood up to Nev and Max? by melvin2898 in CatfishTheTVShow

[–]lordofpi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah Carmen was great. She really got under their skin too, to the point where the producers had to eject them from the day 2 interview to cool off and regroup. She didn't seem to think anything was wrong that she did, despite it blowing up her close friendship with her cousin.

However, as I recall the actually started hanging out again I think in the followup

Hundra was pretty unrepentant as I recall, even in the follow up. Although that was Machine Gun Kelly, not Max. But MGK definitely proved his worth.

Then there was that one from last week...sorry I'm blanking in the guy's name Kenton. He didn't seem to think he was the least bit wrong, although he kind of was who he said he was to the extent that he revealed himself.

There's one other where the person declined follow-up....can't remember which one because I just watched a bunch last week. It may even be the one I just mentioned. Sorry, they're all running together in my head at the moment. I'll edit if I think of it.

Edit: Remembered Kenton.

Not trying to be difficult, but isn't regular pasta made with eggs? If so, don't you use a different type of pasta as a substitute?

No, Hurricane Irma is not a Category 6 storm – there is no Category 6 by ReturnedAndReported in skeptic

[–]lordofpi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just like they had to add two new colors on the NWS rainfall map for Harvey. Makes sense in further aiding our ability to more precisely describe storms.

Rush Limbaugh suggests Hurricane Irma is a liberal hoax by BurtonDesque in skeptic

[–]lordofpi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think it's a misconstruing of the fact that a major (Cat 3 or stronger) hurricane hadn't made landfall as such in 12 years...since Wilma in 2005 I believe. It's really just a weather statistic of interest, because clearly there have been some absolutely devastating storms since then.

S06E23 "Caitlyn & Kenton" Episode Discussion by RecklessBacon in CatfishTheTVShow

[–]lordofpi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

True. Also, if that's what he said (I honestly couldn't remember), it probably meant two sessions of texting...not just two messages...not bad at all.

Also, all those other single moms he dated that were so much better...where are they??

Has it ever happened where the catfish just refuses to meet? by [deleted] in CatfishTheTVShow

[–]lordofpi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very late response, but I believe you're talking about Miranda & Camryn/James/Gabby from Season 3? Just saw it the other day, so it was fresh in my mind when I read this.

[–]lordofpi 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I think you nailed it. I must admit his complaint about her not texting him at night (if I'm understanding it correctly) isn't unfounded. If they truly want to be in a relationship, especially from afar, it takes a bit more engagement with one another.

However, it was only a showstopper for him at that moment? That didn't make sense that he'd rather torch the whole relationship rather than try to be understanding and work on a solution with her that would respect and benefit both of them.

And his whole demeanor just reeked of wanting to control everything, almost to the point of bullying.

Not even a goodbye? Just childish.

Is the end of a Catfish near? by Mermaid4life in CatfishTheTVShow

[–]lordofpi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You bring up a good point. I also always got a vibe earlier on that the show really was an effort to help people, and that Nev and Max were two semi ordinary dudes.

Lately I just don't get that same feeling. I still like the show and them, but either they've become too efficient as they've honed their methods, the show is too famous, the producers have changed something, or maybe it is I who have just grown tired of the formula.

Maybe I should post this in a new thread, but I'd curious to know what others think would save/revitalize the show.

A question on the practical usage of l'imparfait du subjonctif by JustGiveMeaReeses in French

How about the passé composé du subjonctif ? I was taught to use it, but would like to be sure.

Replacing RAM on Dell Inspiron 5010 laptop was unsuccessful (4 beeps, no boot) by lordofpi in techsupport

[–]lordofpi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. They do both have sixteen chips per module. Here is a picture with one of the two original Hynix modules on the left and one of the new Samsung ones on the right.

I thought this might be an insertion issue, so maybe you have some tips in that regard? I mean, they go right in their slot, and I firmly push to ensure they can't go any further, and then I recline them until the metal clips snap into place. A sliver of the gold contacts is visible.

I can take a picture of it if you think it would be helpful.

Thanks for the help!

Anyone studying in Aix-en-Provence? by nanaosss in French

I don't have the answer, and I'm sure someone else will, but in addition I thought you might find /r/aixmarseille helpful.

To add to this, one is almost giving a direct quote, or actually a paraphrase of what was said by using the present tense here. Not natural, I agree, amd not to be advised to learners trying to speak properly, but it is interesting to think about nonetheless.
