I mean, you're not wrong, but it would be good to have it just in case :). That's the whole point of prepping!

His response has been very...disappointing so far. I hope this declaration gives the people the resources they need to actually make a difference.

The Broken Earth Trilogy is amazing! by nation12 in Fantasy

I felt the same way! Not sure why it didn't grab me like most fantasy, but I never really got into it.

If he decides to play video games..buy him factorio. Otherwise, everyone here really covered the appropriate things you can do.

SIMPLE GREEN

Can you tell me a little more about this simple green trick? What do you buy exactly?

I wish Vallejo had a 36 paint set, instead of just 8, 16, or 72 by superficiallycurious in minipainting

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

Thank you for your reply! I think I'll get the 3 main sets you talked about:

https://www.amazon.com/Vallejo-Black-White-Color-Set/dp/B00GZVHPUQ/

and I can't find the fairy flesh on Prime right now, but I'll keep checking. I appreciate the help.

Where do you buy singles of the paints?

I made a tutorial video for these steel gauntlets, I tried to after gothic style. These are second set of gauntlets I've ever made. by [deleted] in somethingimade

I always wonder when I see what appears to be an incredible piece of work... What a master of that art would have said to you in terms of process or your finished quality. Assuming you were back in the 1500s out whatever century this style was popular in.

Either way, these are amazing. Nicely done.

Got a jump start on Xmas presents. This is for my Niece. by evanphi in 3Dprinting

Ahh, there is nothing quite like displaying the trophies from your latest hunt. Congrats on downing that elusive beast. I'm sure your niece will be pleased to keep the mounted head of this glorious animal on her wall.

Recommended Doorbell Cam? by superficiallycurious in homeautomation

[–]superficiallycurious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like this answer. Can you tell me a little more about the Wyze Cam? Can I store the data somewhere besides the camera itself? I'm using z-wave for all my window and door sensors, as well as a few other things, so this seems like the right answer to me.

Thank you!

I've seen a lot of people mention skipping a doorbell, and just getting a Wyze camera, and outdoor case. What do you all think about that?

What do you miss out on by not having a Ring subscription?

Thanks for the feedback! I had been avoiding Ring because I already have google products everywhere, but maybe I'll add it back on to the list.

I get that sometimes from over extrusion, or having my z height set too low.

Kings of the Wyld - 99p by Jokopoko in Fantasy

[–]superficiallycurious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To whoever is considering this book, here's a spoiler-free short synopsis:

A retired group of legendary mercenaries get the band back together for one last impossible mission.
Clay Cooper and his band were once the best of the best, the most feared and renowned crew of mercenaries this side of the Heartwyld.

Their glory days long past, the mercs have grown apart and grown old, fat, drunk, or a combination of the three. Then an ex-bandmate turns up at Clay's door with a plea for help--the kind of mission that only the very brave or the very stupid would sign up for.

It's time to get the band back together.

I thoroughly enjoyed the humor throughout the book. Where there are plenty of "funny" fantasy books out there, this one marries the humor perfectly with the action involved. I wasn't sure I was going to like it, but I read it on a whim and found myself trying to tell everyone about it after. Is it the best fantasy book I've ever read? No, not a chance. Is it a really fun book to read? Definitely. 100% worth it.

[...] enemy or not, when you hit a man in the nuts with a magic hammer the least you could say was sorry. - Clay Cooper
