Consistency and quality. That’s where fitgirl and yiffy get it. If you show up and repave a road every time someone mentions a pothole, eventually you’ll get a reputation for it.

I’m planning on 3d printing and then probably using automotive vinyl to as a nice aesthetic. I’ve been big on auto vinyl lately lol

Get scissor cut black plastic sheet, something that’s ridgid, and silicone fishtank adhesive.

Cut the plastic to match the shape of the glass sections that face your window. Clean the glass with alcohol, then apply a thin layer of silicone to the plastic piece and press it to the glass. Use a finger to wipe any excess and ooze into a tight seam.

So long as it doesn’t hit sweltering hot, freezing cold, or rainy for the next 24hrs it takes to cure, that plastic isn’t comming off without a putty knife and effort (it will come off fine without harming it, but not on its own)

If you want to increase the chance that no one will do anything about it, do the same to every lamp on your block. Nothing hides vandalism like uniformity.

Ah man, I really wish there was an easy way to modify them with capacitive touch. Those dual layers were a pain back in the day and a bigger one now.

Having never had a ds before I got it to hack, I’m not a fan of the way the hinges woble so I’m designing my own shell and mechanics to adapt it.

Oh my dude, if you have access to a ds, you gotta hack that bad boy ASAP! Gba ROMs can be reliably forwarded as native games and pksm is like a combination save editor and pokebank right on the device! The hardest part is just finding a working ds these days.

He looks really sad to be facing the consequences of his actions.

Hey, I just finished a full run on the GBA port of Crystal! I was using a hacked N2dsxl and honestly it was an all around blast.

I get what you mean about gen2. I was the target demographic for gen1 when it came out, but I wouldn’t find my favorite Pokemon until I went back as an adult. Ghost type all the way.

One of the engraved signs I plan to hang in my kitchen reads, “Judge not what isn’t on thy lips.”

The idea that personal taste in food can be wrong should stand next to homophobia in the pantheon of disgusting ideals.

5 years ago, I’d be out every night systematically removing flock cameras. I have the skills, the tools, and the experience avoiding getting caught. Instead I told myself these things weren’t going to happen and these skills will ever bring me joy. So I cleaned up, got married, finally went to college. I have a career I’m dedicated to and it isn’t even dubiously legal.

I see why we aren’t out burning things in the streets now. I can’t drive 5 over without worrying that a traffic stop will land my wife in alligator Auschwitz for being the wrong color. I can finally afford to buy food for my kid and it’s subject to the whim of people who want my kind dead. I don’t care about everyone else enough to risk what little I actually have.

That’s some damn fine work. Someday I’d like to do the same to make my perfect kitchen knife.

I pack my spouse’s lunch every morning. One of our prepped meals, a small dish of almonds, 2 cookies, 2 peanut mini butter cups, a nalgene of lemon water, and a spork.

As for lunch bag, she has a collection of different dino or space themed bags that we cycle through depending on her mood.

I’ve done the measures on mine and I’m confident that I have the space needed.

For the vents I’ve actually switched to 45° baffet vents instead of holes, they’ll be more on theme for the build and allow a lot more air with less cutting.

Vibration is a great point that I didn’t consider, I have some cork sheets that I can cut to match the fan frame and that should do wonders. I may even add some acoustic foam to the other side just to quite down the metals.

Will do!

Shit, that would be really cool. I’ll have to somewhat I need to do a Watercooling setup.

I used to build industrial scale agricultural sprayers for a living and we had this setup for hot swapping sprayer assemblies, it’d be so cool to build that into the drawer so that pulling the drawer out disconnects the water circulation for easy cleaning.

I’m not all that tall, so there’s plenty of space for me.

Spouse is disabled we don’t fit under each other’s comfortably but that’s a different matter entirely.

Fuck me this has been in my head all week and the work for the video is just so much fun.

I nearly lost it at cowboy Curtis as Morpheus because I literally just made that joke on Saturday.

You know, I like these. I didn’t a first but they grew on me

My spouse and I both have mid century 5 drawer tanker desks. I’m sitting at it to type this.

Attached to my monitor stand is the modified remains of an 80’s gravity lamp. The base broke but the springs are good and it makes a great spotlight.

Our server and tv are built into the remains of an early 80’s Zenith console TV. The screen was dead so we cut out space behind the decorative front pannel for a 32in flat screen and cut down the tower to work as scaffolding for the computer parts. Tossed a sound bar in and now it booms like a theater. You don’t even notice the 2in of screen that’s losts on the ends.

Our stove is a Montgomery Ward from the late 70s. It’s an absolute marvel to use. The clock is broken so I’m planning to dismantle that area to put controls for a vent fan I want to install in the attached shelf.

Our fridge is modern but the second I find myself a '64 GE Americana I’m gutting it to modetnize that masterpiece. Unless I find the tools for metal fab first…

My Samsung microwave is from the mid 70’s. It doesn’t have a turn table but it heats food better than any modern box and has a fraction of the radio leak that my Walmart one had.

I like the way this feels in my mouth. Like, it feels like a real word and it feels like a word that is satisfying to say.
