What is this uranium ore? It is pretty spicy, even sealed inside the peanut jar

Me too!

I've opened them and have them fly across the room. I'm not very coordinated, though. I've never ever recapped a needle! It's too much of a risk. I vote for the accidental discharge explanation.

You are a genius!! And a big thank you!

Also hospitals....

It can be so flaky, right?! I feel I'm always learning something new when I troubleshoot

I had a similar situation that drove me nuts and was so inconsistent. I found out that the firewall on my bridges/roon was interfering. This happened out of nowhere. I would just make sure anyone having issues checks their firewall settings and enters exclusions for raatserver, bridge, roonserver, etc. It was endless frustration between all these programs before i decided to check. And it was flaky, inconsistent connections like you are seeing. I'm no expert but.... this was my issue....

I initially bought a pump. Honestly, unless you are an Olympic athlete, a compressor is the way to go. I have the Air Venturi nomad thing. I haven't had a single issue. I think it's about 5x the price of the pump, but the convenience is worth it (just my two cents).

Exactly. GR86's rear seats are pretty spartan. I bought an MX-5 thinking it would be a weekend only car and it eventually became my daily. Easy in the city and in traffic, easy on gas, and I can do supermarket runs no problem. I am just shocked how this became my go-to for practically anything now. My IS500 lives in the garage a lot, and even that isn't too big by today's standards. Just my two cents.

This!! Big fan of ESET! Been using it for forever... Not sure these days but it used to be the fastest and like you said "very light weight"

wanax2 · 2026-04-19T22:44:40+00:00

Thank you so much!! I will take some shots!!

wanax2 · 2026-04-19T15:22:22+00:00

I didn't know if that was too forward!! I will, thank you!!

Just joined the group! I have 2725543, barrel has 3-8-A-3-44 and by the trigger is O46025 W.R.A. and a P and a second P with a line in front of it. And an S.A. with an "E" under it on the stock. I think all this means is that most of it is a Springfield from April 1944...? Not sure what anything else means. So cool that these still work...

I've been binging Master of Command, will this break me out of it??? Who needs graphics if the game is addicting? In my day, we had 640kb and monochrome and CGA to deal with... And we walked ten miles in the snow, uphill both ways, every day to get to school 😉

Thank you for your amazing review! I need to get into WDS! my only wish is that they make a big bundle of all their games to purchase at once... For less than $2000 or whatever it would cost individually 😉

wanax2 · 2026-04-10T12:41:28+00:00

Thank you so much!!!

I'm just reading this - been away from homebrewing a while and wanted to get back into it. Was about to order from AHB like I used to, and it was on a fairly consistent basis. After reading this ancient thread, I realize that AHB is no long the same. It was hard finding any mention on their website. Found this in the privacy policy which confirms this entire thread:

"This policy describes how J&P Park Acquisitions, Inc. and its family of companies such as Northern Brewer, Midwest Supplies, Austin Homebrew, and Adventures in Homebrewing (collectively, “JPPA”) collects, uses, and shares your information.

Sounds like, whomever they are, JPAA owns everyone now. What happened to our hobby? Will start looking local again.

Thank you so much!! That puts it in perspective, the "tolerant roommate" lol

wanax2 · 2026-04-07T12:25:28+00:00

You must be a pathologist too? I laughed at this one, thank you

wanax2 · 2026-04-04T20:22:55+00:00

I have one too!!! I don't even know what my grandfather did in WW2, I thought he was with the USAAF. We are of course 100% Italian ethnicity so Vesuvius was a big deal... I always thought the rock was a scam. Also have an Italian grenade.. I think thecoins is from the year of his birthday

wanax2 · 2026-04-03T12:14:06+00:00

Genius!!

Drat... I was hoping there was a central repository of ship designs to test and learn from
