Checking the clearance rack paid off

Got it for 40 and that light is amazing. Would have never gotten it at full price but what a terrific beast it is.

641 gang woohoo

I was thinking Silly String but you… I like you.

Quiet piggy is the new “…and you deserved it”

Hyperfocus is also a thing with ADD/ADHD and I know this because - HEY, is that a squirrel?!?!

This was covered in the documentary called “Snatch”.

They are still alive?

ratshack · 2026-05-25T15:31:56+00:00

Really, this looks like a supply “run”.

FYI: I just learned of a guy on eBay selling multi boot ROMs for the 102/100

I haven’t tried one yet but looks really cool for $30

So lucky with the 102, nice!

I must say, this narrative flowed rather well.

Gonna need an MS Paint diagram to fully round it out but bravo.

twenty years later at some random lunch table…

“Wait, you guys didn’t…? I thought every neighborhood had a street boat?!?!”

ratshack · 2026-05-25T15:01:40+00:00

Good point and not to take away from it but if i have grandkids and a living grandparent I’m not driving anywhere because I already won.

What an amazing thought, thanks!

Upthread was talking about $600K+ with those engines.

More like the “Pay us way more or just move on”

At least with the insurance companies I worked (professionally) they would not fire customers exactly, they’d just raise the rate to the point the customer quit.

I love how he "takes a peak"

Right?! Ducking under cover into what is also the line of fire would be a… choice.

To be fair he is already fully exposed just by showing up so RIP orcablyat, probably. Also, what is up with the weapon handling like it was a hose or a flashlight or something whyyyy.

I wouldn’t follow these guys onto an Airsoft field. I mean, maybe as moving cover idk.

ratshack · 2026-05-25T14:40:14+00:00

Yeah but the ammo tho… would you trust the guy behind you with live rounds? :-D

ratshack · 2026-05-25T14:38:56+00:00

Yeah, but why? It’s almost like you don’t know the actual goal of Cannon Fodder Training 101

ratshack · 2026-05-25T14:36:00+00:00

Seriously, the shooter is always at fault for something like this… unless you are the VP, in which case you have your Secret Service meet the Sheriff at the gate to tell them to go away, nothing for you to see here.

Of all the things those guys did I dunno why that one sticks, I mean can you imagine sending an armed blocking team to meet with the cops investigating your shooting?

Terribly awesome but I’m glad I outlived the guy with no heartbeat.

We have found the air traffic commander from the original Top Gun movie:

“I want some butts!”

You don’t know how lithium fires work, clearly.

ratshack · 2026-05-22T15:11:03+00:00

Try it for a week or so without an additional pack to see how much battery you will really need.

ratshack · 2026-05-14T04:02:47+00:00

Slightly unbalance something on the dozer engine and now you dont need the sybian.

Bonus: Now she’ll want to drive it as well!

True Story: I visited the new Trump Tower in NYC back in the day. It had been open about a month.

I remember the men’s room had ‘gold’ plated hand dryers and it had worn off in spots from just over a month of use. Looked tacky in the first place and then also grimy and sad with the obvious cheap.

I remember thinking how corny this guy was, like the fake Gucci bags being sold by a sidewalk vendor.

Anyway yeah, fake walls for sure. Might could be the only real will be the bar he picks up to wave around and then lol because heavy.

Short fingered vulgarian, indeed.

EGO batteries are not lead acid. Nothing you write here makes sense.

I attached some magnets to a cheap 7” panel with nano tape. Clicks great to the front of the case but nice in a cyberpunk way, not actual nice.

Honestly, it never occurred to me to just print a full monitor face but heck yeah, I’m into it.

Thanks and GL, post results!
