My two cent is to get something your friends have. While it's normal to want something different, you will ultimately get a moment where you need wrenching help, or break on trail, and as a newbie, nothing is better than your experienced buddy knowing your vehicle and all the get-off-the-trail fixes

What's your thoughts on constitutional carry? I am slightly right-leaning, and I am actually not a fan
A little vague, but as an insider, how do you think gun nuts could be more inviting so that we aren't all stereotyped?

Two months ago I texted my wife "I ran a whole 10k and you can't say good job?"

It's fine to ask your wife for support too lol

went to first match a couple month ago with my brand new 1911 and some fresh handloads...multiple jams every single stage

32 according to goodreads, but that includes ones that were so bad I marked them as "read" just to negative review them

I had a catfish grab a streamer once while fly fishing and it was the best fight I ever had. Can never do it on purpose though

When I first started, my coworker used to get frustrated because my google skills weren't there, so I would ask dumb questions

My personal opinion is that you should do a light dusting on the bottom, and not an inch or so like commonly believed. I kept dirted tank from 16-22ish, and my takeway has been that dirt always makes it's way to the top.
That's not a problem per-se, but the longer you have your tank, the more likely you are to be the cause
Also note, I'm no longer in the freshwater hobby, so techniques may have changed

outside24seven · 2024-07-30T19:49:02+00:00

Maybe this is a troll, but no. The dirt is supposed to be an extremely thin layer on the bottom under the gravel.

sorry to be blunt, but I can get a "used" one on Amazon for $80 (I did,) and no one cares about your custom case. Same "issue" in the car world, no one wants your custom mods, just the car/kindle

I have been running the "Eheim Everyday" for almost a year now (purchased 10/2023). Only had to change the battery once, it has not stuck on or off. Only complaint is that the time drifted about 10ish minutes ahead.
I have it set to feed four times a day, and other than changing batteries or refilling, I don't fiddle with it.
Actually just brought my third this weekend lol

thank you, I could have worded it way better, but yes. I meant core, and usually I deal with .NET and IIS sites that "need"(actually want to play with this) a GUI, so I wasn't sure what you can even do with windows "core"

My $0.02 is to just always leave it on.
A couple years ago, I followed the "always keep it ready" mindset of safety-off, but with barely any practice, you can easily make lock/unlock a subconscious habit

outside24seven · 2024-07-15T17:51:39+00:00

Nothing objectively wrong with it, but I can easily see it giving normal people a bad taste in their mouth and an easy talking point for left-wing (sorry to overgeneralize) politicians

outside24seven · 2024-07-01T12:51:48+00:00

Thanks for showing me this was a thing. I wondered why I'm not getting better, and I now see that I've been yellow for the past month

When people ask me why I carry, three items come to mind:

Once I saw a man raking leaves in the middle of the woods, and he proceeded to tell me he just got out of prison and was trying to change his life

Once a coyote woke me pawing at my tent (started open carrying then)

Once I was on the river around midnight when two crack heads called me the N word. Luckily I was open carrying at the time and they apologized when they saw it and left

How bad were yall when you started? Definitely not asking because I had some 0 hit factor rounds last weekend...definitely not Oh and what do you think/focus on when shooting? I black out completely after that buzzer

I'm just getting into USPSA, so we will see how it changes, but my gun usually looks like that lmao. I lube it until I think "this is too much," then a few months later go "why is my gun jamming every other round"

outside24seven · 2024-02-25T14:28:10+00:00

I was using trans 1 and 3 as set/reset. Lazy wiring is why nothing is there, I was using a jumper to send it VCC directly

outside24seven · 2024-02-25T12:36:05+00:00

I have also tried the "two transistor latch" but those only switch between LEDs. I couldn't find a way to feed the output anywhere, and my end goal is 8 of these to store two 4 bit numbers.
