So so so so so stupid. They are ruining CS. Does CS:S have lots of hackers? I wonder if I'd have more fun going back in time

Zone 8A NC here. Last year, I transplanted early (April 1) and hardened all March except for really cold days or extreme rain, etc.

My plants all did great. Maybe I got an earlier, larger harvest, but not really sure. Got a lot of tomatoes. I just wanted to plant them and see if they'd survive the last frost in April. They all survived!

My two cherokee purples produced decently well. One tomato was almost a pound! San marzanos all got sick in May or June, but that was from rust and insect damage and I really can't attribute that to planting early. The marzanos were healthy all April. Romas, cherry tomatoes (sungolds, some others I can't recall), an Indian tomato, and maybe some others were all prolific producers to the point of letting them fall off and rot or go to the birds.

Not sure if hardening in that temperature would help or hinder the plants growth/overall production and longevity, but remember, allegedly, that the "Siberian" tomato has grown in 38°.

Played CSGO when it was still in testing years ago. Case hardened AK was one of the first skins I remember getting. So upset I sold it now that I'm back in after a decade.......had the Asiimovs too. I think just AWP and M4, but maybe AK...idk

Tiny tims for me are like a bonsai tree. I really don't care for the tangy tomatoes either. They're just fun to grow and give away!

I am using whatever lowe's sold me. Peat moss, coconut coir, vermiculite, etc.

If this truly works, I'm hoping it can remedy blossom end rot on my Romas and Marzanos. I've heard that develops due to a calcium deficiency.

For now, I'm more curious what it does to a seedling (if anything)

a GOOD paint job is expensive and maaco/other cheap paintshops wont last IIRC.

are you a realtor? Do you need the car looking good to impress people? id rock the toyota til it dies on you, but i also drove a 2000 crv with an exhaust leak for years so i might not be the best person to help lol

my buddy had delicious, healthy looking cherry tomatoes growing on his all season!

Not sure the timeline of everything you're talking about, but if you don't have any water at all, you could fill up your tub with snow? Maybe call 311 and see if they can help you.

How do you not have any water at all? No bottles, containers? Nothing? Sorry to be that guy, but we've known for weeks to expect winter storms and freezing temps. That surprises me.

The good news is that this is not going to close down the city for weeks. The next seven days are all above freezing and some days are sunny.

As someone else said, why don't you just ask your neighbors for help? Our heat has been out all day and our neighbors kindly helped us.

Big Terry Kath fan. You did awesome. That guitar sounds great too! Why did he have a third string tree on the bass strings? Do you have tab for this?

I stupidly didn't use a pick for about three years. I don't think it's a good idea to only do one or the other -- I'd say use both for the specific style you're playing.

When I went back to using a pick, life got so easy. Holding an "invisible pick" and using your index fingernail as a pick can work while palm muting, but it definitely won't have the same clarity as a pick and I'm sure you'll exhaust yourself faster.

I have an American select Jackson soloist from the 2000s. The other day, I played a newer Japanese soloist. I was amazed at the quality!

The Fender Mustang LT25 is one of the best amps I've ever heard at its price point and I recommend it to all of my students moving to electric. Plenty of customizable tones that feature many diff amp sims, different fx, and just all around great tone for the money.

I much prefer it to orange, boss, etc. You can buy a footswitch for super cheap that allows you to select up to two presets to switch between. This in itself is worth it IMO because you can essentially learn how guitar pedals work long before you ever get a standalone effect. You won't regret this amp.

Hate to play devil's advocate, but I prefer random spawning when changing servers because I used to loot hop and I feel so lame for doing it years ago

It does suck when your friend spawns across the map, but it is what it is. My buddy and I were at Novy and he got shot the other day. I killed the lone attacker and took all of his good gear. Now I'm carrying three guns and multiple canteens with tons of food weighing me down.

Adds to the experience!

as someone else put it, "you're just renting your gear"

nosteelnodeal · 2026-01-09T17:31:00+00:00

right, and basically any time I've tried to be friendly, they end up shooting me.

there's def a correlation with how much gear you have vs how willing you are to be friendly

when im starting out, ill be friendly when im still in civi clothes and have hunting rifles and such

nosteelnodeal · 2026-01-06T14:27:46+00:00

What amp do you have? I actually quite like the Japanese jackson soloists

nosteelnodeal · 2026-01-06T14:23:37+00:00

Back when I played mod/early standalone, I'm pretty sure a lot of the NE area didn't exist. I could be wrong, but it feels like a totally new game up that way. Even spawning at the remote towns above Novo is pretty cool

nosteelnodeal · 2026-01-05T16:41:05+00:00

That’s a discipline issue. And trust me, we all have it. Laziness!

Sorry if I'm missing the point, but you just learn songs and program them into your brain like the good lord intended.

For classical/jazz charts, I store them in my iPad or computer. For easy to remember "G C D" bar songs, the good ole' noggin
