Worst part was after we stripped the carpet and bleached the shit out of it (dog urine). Saw a tiny bug scirry across the floor. Little did I know it wasthe beginning of a war against german cockroaches. It ended with gel bait on every wall, and 10 fog bombs (for my home size it whould have been 5) to nuke the bastards into oblivion. 4 damn months with those fuckers.

And yeah, it was a HDD on its side. No issues really.

A mobile home doesn’t really mean mobile always. In this case, just moved from one area to another. A trailer home. Wasn’t bad either, 16x60, insulation sucked though. I had industrial laminate from an old shoe store, copper pipes, landlord let me keep a 20x20 yard and 400x20 garden, for $100/month (8 yrs ago). Paid $3k to buy it preowned, 2k to move, and about $500 in cleaning and repairs (floor and various things were free sourced mostly), sold it after 6 years for $3k with no cost to move it again.

Hid a pc into a bar of my mobile home this way. All parts were either screwed into plywood or strapped with zip ties. I hated the wasted space. It had a 24x28" space with no door (Fixed with a scroll saw, magnetic close, and some hinges). I added a very small plywood shelf for DVDroms and usb drives, and just attached the board to the inner wall. Used a hole saw on the tabletop for I think 2" (just big enough for a VGA connector, and ran all the cords into the cabinet. Worked well, then I moved into an actual house. Still loved it more than apartment life. Coolest part was no one ever saw the door unless I showed them (which was great cause that cut was waaaaavy)

Yet somehow ISPs are expected to police piracy.

I conveniently was given a Synology ds412 by Amazon many years ago (and being as I had just been fired from the phone job with them due to a “mistake” in hiring me, I figured I’d keep it. Also learned that when you work security, don’t piss off secretaries while doing the job, even as a contractor). I still use it. Not powerful, but it serves up most video alright, and is ok as a download space.

A few times, have to be certain the Devil didn’t take over and force him to carry contraband.

Ummm, nothing. It’s a biological trait upon birth. Christians are so funny when they say it’s a choice. So if you feel it’s a choice, pastor, or Brother, then guess what? You have a biological attraction to men. But no, they’d rather continue the lie that the Bible condemns homosexuality, not pedophilia, as that means they are really in trouble.

When Israel bribed them into saying so.

Ah. Someone found my field of fucks. See that I had none left to give.

If T60 armor were real, battles would definitely be faster. There’s a reason the Battle of Anchorage changed the tide. And that was just the T45 armor. Had a weak point though apparently.

Nah, end of times is when Shenmue series finally finishes

“Gesture that looks disturbingly similar to a Nazi salute.” Ffs, cowards, it was a goddamn Nazi salute. My heart does not go out to Nazis, and I hope the fucker goes bankrupt in all his endeavors.

Yeah, but insurance won’t cover it until like age 50.

Also don’t forget to look at your insulation around your lines outside each year. They need replacing sometimes. If you can feel cold, you need a new one. If you don’t, you’ll see ice forming in the summer, and that is very very bad. Don’t forget to test heat and cold BEFORE you really need it (we just tested ours on a decent warm day)

I go to an HVAC supplier every year and buy this green can of amazing chemicals. Spray the fins, let sit for about 15min, then spray off with a hose. Gleaming, shiny metal.

Wasn’t even a stunt. It was just callous, demented, and sick.

Find books written about farming/saving during ww2. Get a freezer and a canner. Stock up on beans/rice/etc (long shelf life foods). Save bones from meat, boil them for 6 hours, then let fool and strain them. Can/freeze the broth (I put mine in quart freezer bags flattened out in the freezer). One quart added to 1qt water is filled with nutes for soups and such. If you have a fireplace, keep a bag of dryer lint for kindling. Buy heirloom seeds, learn how to save seeds (Whenever I grow green beans I always have 100+ dried pods in autumn as I usually only have enough to harvest 2x with any real quantity. Each dried pod has at least 4 beans). Buy things you need now that tariffs will affect the most (electronics, coffee, etc.) Start learning how to fix things yourself, get basic tools (drill, hammers, driver sets, wrenches, etc). Fix car problems now, before parts go up. If you know ANYONE still alive now from the 30s to 40s, pick their brains on what they did. Also, get books on identifying plants. Sorrel is awesome to add to food for flavor, dandelions are a good source of Vit C… my knowledge is limited, but so far that’s what I’ve tried (do NOT eat roots of dandelion).

US. I looked, only found a link for $40/12m… nothing free unless a TX citizen.

Any examples?
