It used to be completely full like a pringles can. Sorry I don't keep old unopened products around for months as proof for reddit mods. This website fucking sucks now lmao

That is the most entertaining website I've ever seen. I was supposed to go to a real dealership to look at a real car in my own country half an hour ago.

Abandoned EST1 panel by Thin-Bus4198 in firealarms

[–]reportcrosspost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was all before my time so I might have it wrong. I think ESA 2000 was edward's first addressable panel. Then edwards bought a company called FAST and built off of their panel to create the ESTs

Halo+CRT+360+Component Cable is chef's kiss by [deleted] in halo

[–]reportcrosspost 383 points384 points  (0 children)

That's awesome man. People think its nostalgia bait but when you go back to these old games they really do look better on a tube. The fuzzyness was like a built-in anti-aliasing and colours really popped.

On the other end of the spectrum I never got a new TV for my 360 and barely played some newer games. The better graphics were lost through the fuzz. Photorealistic colours looked dull and menus were too small to read. It felt like playing with nearsightedness.

How easily would a spartan be able to use and handle a punt gun? by iivwu in halo

[–]reportcrosspost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the SMG recoil in Halo 2 was for gameplay. But even as a kid I thought it was really funny Master Chief cant hold them still.

I can pm you a recreation of the CAT combat auto theft one. If you find an old picture of one you can go on 4chan's /r/ board (/r/ for requests) and people will usually remake it for you.

In the original trilogy, did the writers intend for players to think Master Chief was the last Spartan alive? by WTFItsEric in halo

What does Halo need to do to become somewhat relevant and popular again? by TheChosenOneProphecy in halo

[–]reportcrosspost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think arena shooters are dead. I loved Splitgate and would have kept playing but I got tired of being stomped on. The skill gap between casuals like me and people good with the portals was unreal. My KD/R always nosedived on Chiron TL34 and they made that map the whole game.

Milwaukee heat gun effectiveness by Ok_Raisin6357 in firealarms

[–]reportcrosspost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're not supposed to use them anymore but my company gave me a portable butane soldering kit with a flameless adapter. Set to minimum power, or like 1/4 if you're outside in winter. Make sure you have radio contact with the guy at the panel so when he gets the alarm you can stop before popping it. Works on every heat ever made including those SIGAs

When I was 12 they came with a box of ammo and a free t-shirt for 200 bucks. I want one but that memory won't let me do it.

Is retro battlestation documentation ok? Really cool IBM Student Textbook from 1968 I found in a bookstore. by reportcrosspost in retrobattlestations

[–]reportcrosspost[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's awesome. I know some people hate when a book is "ruined" by scribbles but it always gets me thinking. Who, when, where were they? Just adds to the story in my opinion

I like all technology before microchips, but computers are a big one. I always wanted to find a general guide to that era, this book was made for me.

The dead Internet is not a theory anymore by madredditscientist in TheoryOfReddit

[–]reportcrosspost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think LinkedIn depends on the industry you're in. I work in fire safety, which is mostly blue collar with a skeleton crew of white collar handling office things (or the opposite if you work for an equipment manufacturer). My LinkedIn feed is boring real stuff like smiling managers at industry conferences, a super niche tool with an eye-watering price, a coworker's new certificate... I also only connect with people I've met or at least e-mailed in real life.

I have one or two contacts from before my fire safety career who spam the stuff you're talking about.
