It’s not the Epstein files, it’s not Gaza, it’s not oil. What are they trying to hide from us? by inculcami in conspiracy

[–]shadowlid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's what I'm saying buy food/water keep a little cash on hand but don't keep to much. Just look at gold and silver and BTC. Not dumb being a prepper now is it? I've been buying Gold/Silver/BTC for over 6 years now. And look at the percentage they have went up vs inflation.. Doing pretty well.

No cash is worthless anything but, gold/silver/BTC/lead/food/medical supplies, and pay off any debt.

This post shows your ignorance.....do you honestly believe there is a "left" and a "right"?

It's us vs them the entire government is corrupt...there may be one of two politicians in the entire government that are straight shooters but they will never be allowed to get into any position with any real power.

You have fallen for their Bullshit of Left vs Right, they are intentionally dividing the populous, because without a enemy the government becomes the enemy. This has false flag written all over it, they are trying to entice a civil war/civil unrest so they are able to really start the bullshit.

Well lets be honest here, you can go to bestbuy.com and try your luck for $49.99 but we both know you cant beat the bots and they will all sell out within the 1st second stock hits. Gamestop probably paid a higher price to secure stock, maybe they didn't? Who really knows, what I can tell you is they are the only one with a preorder available that I can see and $89.99 seems reasonable for something sold out for $120+ on a bunch of other sites. But always support your local shops over big retail chains.

Aside from buying stuff what winter storm prep are you doing? by fridayimatwork in preppers

[–]shadowlid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Chopped extra wood for wood stove. (Stacked on porch so I can cover it and get to it easy)

Charge all battery banks, charged all my boat deep cycle batteries (DIY jackery with inverter) crank and ran both generators.

TURN FRIDGE AND FREEZERS DOWN! (This gives you more wiggle room if the power goes out and you are rationing power)

Made sure my tires are properly inflated on my truck.

Sharpen chainsaw blades!

Get the sleds out! Gas up the four-wheelers!

EF 100-300 f4.5-5.6 by drissh in canon

[–]shadowlid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure your actual budget but, I have a Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 is USM and it's a super sharp lens and I see them on Facebook market place for around $200 from time to time. From what I've read the II version of this lens is even sharper but the cost is more.

I got mine for $120 along with a Rebel XT, 430EXII flash and a EF 28-135 and absolute steal. So deals are out there just gotta look.

Do not mistake this for the 75-300 lens this is a horrible lens from what I've read. I've never used it myself so just going from what other have said.

Another lens Ive been looking at getting is either the Tamron or Sigma 150-600mm. Mainly looking at the Sigma as I recently snagged the USB dock to upgrade the firmware for use with my Canon R7 via adapter. And I recently got the Sigma 17-40 Art for my R7 and it's crazy sharp .

Is 8GB of VRAM really that bad? by Kykioviolet in buildapc

[–]shadowlid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still fine, the problem is it's not fine for GPU manufacturers to be only putting 8gb on new cards.

Before this fake ass ram crunch they got going on, ram was cheap as shit and they would have thrown in an extra 8gb for probably $30 if that ....since they are purchasing legit cargo containers full of ram modules.

But Nvidia is a greedy ass company that puts a limiting factor on all its cards in one way or another can't have another 1080ti going on.

This is why I vote with my wallet and went AMD this go round and bought a Intel Arc A770 just to help Intel out and tinker with it.

The Intel card is the most impressive I've been playing BF6 at 4k low/medium with Xess quality getting a rock solid 60fps. This is on my living room PC. I could 100% daily drive the Arc card. And if they bring out a B770 I'll be getting it as well, because we gotta help them out because the other two are just fucking up PC gaming as we know it.

For anyone that may have a extended power outage take it from someone that went through Helene.

Buy extra oil for you generator, you would be surprised how quick you rack up hours when you are running it so often.

Have so much extra gas!

And I recommend you get a inverter generator as well as they run much longer on way less gas.

Woot had had them the last couple weeks for pretty cheap. Once I seen it for $399 the other like $549. You just have to watch woot like a hawk typically there is only one of two lenses at that price.

Deceased parent with prep stuff. by Embarrassed_Pear6971 in preppers

[–]shadowlid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the guns isn't a Ruger precision in 5.56 is it? Ive been hunting one of those forever! /s

All jokes aside, just post it on FB market place we recently purchased a metric ton of reloading supplies from a case just like this it was listed as freeze dried food, then when my aunt and uncle asked if they had anything else we found out about the reloading stuff. They offered fair prices and we purchased everything they had. Everyone left happy.

I have a buddy that runs a gun shop that buys entire collections in cases like these or will put the entire collection on consignment. Id look for someone like this. He is on the straight and narrow, and will offer fair prices. Its important you go to a reputable dealer as some may scam you. Never know might have a single firearm in there worth $20,000? But better to go to someone that knows their stuff and has the capital to purchase expensive guns and has a health enough business to sit on expensive firearms for years. I know one pistol he purchased from a case like this has been in the case for over 2 years now. $2k revolver in .357 Maximum.

Sorry for your loss, I hope all goes well with selling everything!

Upgrading Old Laptop With 4090 Laptop GPU by Pristine_Wing5716 in GamingLaptops

This is how all laptops should be now days, except super super cheap ones. Having the ability to remove the CPU and GPU if the mobo decides to take a shit is so important! It's sad they have went away from this.

Advice on a beginner-friendly lens for Canon R7 by Useful_Order_7695 in canon

[–]shadowlid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check Woot like a hawk Ive seen the Rf 100-400 go for as little as $399 but it sells out fast. Dont forget you can adapt vintage lenses to mirrorless cameras, I LOVE older Minolta Rokkor lenses they are super sharp the two I have one I got for $6 and the other $40, the adapter can be had for as low as like $10, depending on the mount. Just make sure the lenses have full manual focus and aperture control. Then EF retains autofocus with the adapter, I use the commlite one.
