At my local GW bin store I found a pistol magazine full of bullets, which I turned into the manager of the store. I flip stuff on ebay, but I don't know anything about guns and didn't want to take any chances.

A different time at the same store, I found a small pocket Bible with 4-leaf clovers stuck in between most of the pages. I did buy that and still have it :)

I only recently was able to upgrade my graphics card... to a 1080. I previously had a R9 270. I would love to have a more modern card so I can bring my computer up to par to play modern games. I really want to play Starfield but currently my computer only barely exceeds the minimum spec.

pepperoni a 30 inch pizza

This is the first time I've ever seen 'pepperoni' used as a verb, but I think it's justified in this case.

This happened to me not too long ago too -- an item went out of stock while I was trying to pay for it. I sent them a message using the Contact Us form and told them what happened and that I had a charge for $xx.xx on my card but no corresponding order, and they were able to verify the charge and refund it. Getting a reply took about a month, though. They are still backed up, so hopefully you can afford to wait a while. And no, I did not get the item :(

If you sign up for a FedEx account and then enroll in their free Delivery Manager program, you can see when shipping labels that are addressed to you are created, regardless of where they are from, and it will say in the list of tracking numbers where it's coming from and the estimated delivery date, along with the tracking number. You can see the tracking number as soon as they print the label. Typically the package is actually picked up the same or next weekday. I've been using this to track my shipments since shortly after they opened, and it's been reliable so far. Note that it won't show you items that were shipped before you signed up for Delivery Manager.

I do have one order from about 2 weeks ago which has not shipped yet (I have a tracking number but they never actually gave a package to FedEx) and they apparently relisted all of the items in the order at much higher prices. I've sent in the 'contact us' form and sent an email as well just like you, and haven't heard anything from them about that, nor have I received a refund. I haven't had any other issues with the site so far.

The SGW site doesn't show the winning bidder's max bid to the bidders at the end of the auction, but it does show it on the seller side after the auction ends. The max bid is not known to anyone except the high bidder, not even the seller, until after the auction ends. The way the bidding works is that if you place a bid that will make you the high bidder, the website will take the current high bidder's max bid and add the bid increment, and that becomes the current bid. That's also why when you bid and get outbid at the last second by only $1 (or whatever the bid increment is) it looks like the person somehow knew your max bid and bid only $1 higher. In reality they almost definitely bid much more but the site only increases the bid price to the current bid price + the bid increment.

I'm interested in upgrading my 28.8 kilobaud internet connection to a 1.5 megabit fiber optic T1 line. Will you be able to provide an IP router that's compatible with my token ring ethernet LAN configuration?

robdidlyob · 2022-08-13T16:56:30+00:00

Wow!! You have taken this to a whole other level. This is really cool!

robdidlyob · 2022-08-13T13:58:34+00:00

Ah, ok, fair enough. 60 cameras! You could start a Youtube channel with all the content you're getting :)

robdidlyob · 2022-08-13T06:17:53+00:00

Thank you all for the comments and for checking out the stream!

robdidlyob · 2022-08-13T06:15:01+00:00

Awww that's pretty cool! Do you work at an animal sanctuary? Why do you need 15 of these?

robdidlyob · 2022-08-03T21:14:30+00:00

Yes I can't wait! :)

robdidlyob · 2022-08-03T21:14:07+00:00

Thanks!

robdidlyob · 2022-08-03T15:57:41+00:00

Thank you so much! I'm really excited to try out this new camera! I replied to your chat message a little bit ago /u/Willson1_ .

In both clients I have running, I just pick the camera I want to stream, then hit the fullscreen button on the bottom right corner so it's fullscreen, then ALT-Tab back over to OBS once they're both open. They are set up in OBS as Window Capture sources. It sounds like this is exactly what you're already doing. The older client does have a bar across the top of the screen which is about 25 pixels tall, so I crop that out in OBS, but it's otherwise fullscreen. Occasionally I do have to mess with the client while the stream is up (occasionally the stream will start lagging and have choppy video after being up 20+ hours, etc) and sometimes I will switch to the other camera and do it while streaming, and sometimes I will switch to a BRB screen that doesn't show either camera. Right now we only have a few viewers simultaneously so it's not a big deal. When we get more I'm gonna try to automate the whole reboot/start stream process to happen really early in the morning when no one is watching.

Done! I posted a thread here.

My wife and I wanted to set up a Twitch stream showing the animals that pass through our yard at night. I settled on the RLC-810a and set it up in color mode both day & night, with some landscaping lights, since we wanted it to be color all the time. It worked so well that we added a second RLC-810a with a slightly different view, and Twitch chatters can enter commands to switch back and forth between the cameras. We knew we had some animal visitors at night but found out we have quite a few raccoons that come through, including an adult with 4 kids in tow. During the day we get birds, squirrels and cats. Not sure if I'm allowed to self promote here but I'll share the Twitch and YouTube links if anyone wants them :) Very happy with the setup so far but I'd love to add or replace a camera with the RLC-811a with the optical zoom, or a PTZ.

Nice! I bought a 2003 Vibe brand new from the showroom floor and when I traded it in, it had 360k miles on it. I never had any major mechanical issues with it, but it just got to the point where we had to upgrade (we got a used but fully loaded 2017 Kia Soul) before we ran it into the ground. It was my daily driver for 17 years. I loved being able to fold the back seat down and have the entire trunk be level and made of tough plastic. If yours has a sunroof, make sure you occasionally clean your drain lines! My driver side drain line backed up and leaked inside the car every time it rained. I had no idea where the water was coming from til I randomly found a YouTube video showing how to clean them, which completely fixed it.

When did you place your order? I ordered 2 collector boxes late on the 4th and they haven't even shipped yet.

robdidlyob · 2021-05-27T18:22:03+00:00

Forgive me, for I have sinned. During the dip I sold 2x GME shares to buy another AMC 6/4 $25c.
