Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I find the lottery fun in moderation, but I only spend like $50 on lottery tickets a year so I’m not exactly the target audience anyway.

Im in charge of making sure engineers and mechanics/technicians adhere to my company’s current electrical wiring standards.

Memorizing every little detail is almost impossible so its easiest to just have an eye for what’s wrong and knowing where to look for the correct answer

I didn’t look it up to verify, but I think I read that Michael Gambon didn’t read any HP stuff outside of his lines so he winged everything.

Too bad Streetlight Manifesto faced legal trouble and haven’t released an album in a decade :(

I’m thinking of moving to a no contract plan once my current contract is up.

I used a Nokia Flip phone on Tracfones network for a week to test getting out of that ecosystem and also away from smartphones in general.

All-in-all I was impressed with what you could do with a flipper and a $20 a month plan.

Me and 5 other fatties in middle school (like almost 20 years ago) got kicked out of a CiCi’s pizza for eating too much food in like 30 minutes.

We were like the first people who ate so much that they started losing money lmao

You’d be surprised at how much old technology is still used in parts of our electrical devices and electronics

$80 is definitely a high price. If you buy a GBC from eBay or Craigslists etc on any given day I’d expect to pay around $80.

However, if you’re monitoring market places like Facebook or Reddit, you’ll come across them for like $30-40 by people who just want to get rid of them. It might take a few days of waiting to come across one but it happens regularly you just have to be quick and have multiple payment options ready.

I’ve bought a few GB-GBAs recently and I’ve never paid more than $45 for one. I probably average $30 or $35 because I buy multiples.

 

I’m still researching recurves, recurves accessories, and proper recurve shooting sequences before I buy anything.

I’m currently looking at making arrows for recurves and it appears that a lot of recurve vanes use stick on adhesives vs the cement fletching glue I’m used to seeing on compound arrows.

Many people seem to swear on them but I can’t help but think that stick on fletchings have to come off randomly through out the year.

 

I shot compound for probably 10 years, I know a bit of compound archery because my dad is friends with a professional archer.

I never did recurve though and I’m looking at getting into it because it looks more challenging. I have most of the parts I want spec’d out and I see a lot of people recommend getting a Beiter button.

I looked into it and I didn’t really get a direct answer on what does, based off of appearances it looks like it just pushes the arrow where you want it to keep it centered but I’m not 100% sure.
