https://imgur.com/a/RuRYJp I have a ton of stuff sitting in my closet doing nothing. Let's see it get put to good use. And all the ar9 stuff has less than 100 rounds through it. Apparently, I like building more than shooting. All prices include G&S fees and shipping. Pay asking price and get a free "NO NOTES" patch. Pelican Pistol foam $50 I don't have 5 pistols anymore so I don't need the foam or an excuse to buy more pistols. Inforce Wild2 weapon light $100 Put on a 320 X5 Legion and never fired.

2023.06.10 04:01 Gundam_M3ister Stressin' about Backup Offer
Hey!! So my partner and I put a backup offer on a home we really love. We were just shy of the offer deadline, but we're in the #1 spot as backups with a conventional loan and buying as-is, and offering a higher bid as well as appraisal gap.
The current buyers have an FHA loan and requested a $4k credit to repair the roof of the back patio (it's falling down a bit and needs replaced). The seller declined to fix or credit and told the buyer they have until 7pm to accept. We haven't heard from the seller's agent yet, but just hoping to get some input since I can't stop fixating. The sellers have until midnight to accept our backup officially.
I'm wondering if it might work out that the inspection issues will cause the first offer to fall through or not. Considering they're going with an FHA loan, there are clear issues we're aware of that will be raised during the official FHA appraisal as well that our agent pointed out. I'm thinking they noticed the patio most of all during inspection and are trying to get it fixed before the appraisal so their loan goes through? Not sure, but this is nerve-racking. 🤯 Any advice or consolation is appreciated!!

Picking up a 2016 CT200H. What’s the best ROI added item to the vet as a rental? Roof rack or hitch? So far the hitch on our van has been a good add on with a cargo carrier and bike rack.

2023.06.10 03:16 whereupon_the_real Help, please - Nozzle clogging when switching PLA filament
I'm a couple weeks into using my X1-C. 4 out of the 5 times I've switched PLA filaments, I've gotten a clogged nozzle (not extruder). Here's the detail:
Printing with door closed and top on in a 70F room using a PEI coated steel plate. Can print multiple prints with time in between where the printer cools down...no issues...as long as I don't swap filament. (edit: also, I'm not using the AMS...have spool mounted on back)
I use the 'unload filament' button on touchscreen, it cuts the filament and tells me to pull it - comes out fine. I use the 'load filament' button on touchscreen, it heats up, the extruder grabs the filament (can feel it move), then I hear a clicking sound as the new filament hits the blockage.
I end up pulling the screws on the hot end, heating it up, and pushing the filament out with a hex wrench. I've never been able to do a cold pull as described by others.
One person on Facebook suggested that it was due to not having the door open or top off while printing, but it seems like I'd have issues between prints (while not changing filament) if that was true. The only time I have the issue is when I swap filament.
I'm guessing it is classic 'heat creep', where the filament is melting above the heat break. The filament i'm using is recommended to print at 220C, which I've been printing at, with a range of 205C - 235C.
Do you think lowering the print temp a bit will help the issue? I see many folks saying they're printing PLA with no issues without opening the door or taking off the roof, as long as the ambient temp outside the printer is around 70F. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

2023.06.10 02:29 Intheshaw1 (WTS) Fire Hose Steel Target Hangers
Timestamp.
https://imgur.com/a/fCvNLXT Selling fire hose for hanging steel targets, no hardware included but easily found at any hardware store. Fire Hose is THE way to hang steel targets as they can take tons of rounds before breaking, unlike chains. Made from decommissioned fire hose so there may be some dirt/stains from use.
https://imgur.com/a/dGcd1Ze Hose is approx 2.5" wide, holes are approx 1" from each end. Grommets are approx. O.48" ID (easily fits 3/8 mounting hardware, could probably force in 1/2") or without grommets the holes are approx 0.55" and ends burnt to prevent frying.
I personally run a grommet on one side with 1/2" hardware in the hole without a grommet and have used it this way for years. I set up my own poor man's plate rack with 2x4s, saw horse brackets and some hooks to hang targets.
https://imgur.com/a/VqwvyaE 12" hangers - $5 each
18" hangers - $6 each
New Wrap around Version - $7 each
These are 24" in total length and wrap around anything 2x4 size or smaller. Hanging length from the bottom of the 2x4 is approx 14". Grommets on the hanging end only.
https://imgur.com/a/J1hEWKX Hose by the foot - $2/ft (This is dirtier hose than I'd like for making hangers but still fully functional).
Shipping is a flat $5, minimum $20 order, PayPal F&F or Venmo. Let me know if you want grommets on one side, both sides, or none at all.
Mix and match 10 hangers or more for free shipping, 25 hangers or more for free shipping and 10% off.
Please comment here and PM me with your order or if you have any questions.

2023.06.10 00:43 Meizuba General Contractor Here - Could I Install A Ladder Rack?
Hey community! I'm about a month away from getting my 2023 Explorer hybrid!
I'm a GC and often need to transport 8' - 12' items on my roof rack. I'm currently using the stock cross bars on my Escape when I need to (which is often). It's worked without fail for the last 8 years (had some close calls with 50 2x4s stacked on it).
I'm looking for something more suited for the job. Much like those white work vans you've seen on the roads. I'm not looking to turn my explorer into a pickup, I'm just seeking a roof rack solution that I can be confident with.
I'd rather ask y'all than the dealer.

The installs maybe a little different than some, with 2 roofs (1 pitched, 1 flat) on a detached garage about 15 meters away from the house. The house CU and supply is on the 1st floor (old and odd house). Theres an existing cable between the house/garage (16mm2 SWA), but for the EPS functionality, would require the extra SWA run to the house 1st floor, mentioned in the quote. The flat roof panels will be east/west aligned, using K2 Systems D-Dome racks. Usage is right around 12kWh/day (~4300/year).
I'll need to ask about bird protection, the DNO application, and the MCS certificate as well.
Thoughts?

2023.06.09 21:23 No_Relief967 The inevitability of loss or It's been a rough few FML weeks--Fan creative nonfiction
The Inevitability of Loss or Its been a few FML weeks
So first there was
this when I came back for the anniversary, which led to
this. Which was my fault because I totally forgot about it before I went inactive.
Not having had enough, I lost my
Stratios, then my
Astero, and then a
Hecate.
Total ISK lost at this point is roughly 7.8 billion, which does not reflect the untold hours of research on the bpos.
So, unperturbed, I decided to pack my Obelisk full of personal and my private corp's assets which were located in a high security island that has two low sec systems for entrance/exit. Flying through these systems approximately three minutes earlier in my Ares showed no potential signs of aggression. I normally reserve such moves for immediately after down-time as a safeguard to avoid mishap.
Undocked and warping, I made it through the first low security system and jump to the second. I had almost initiated warp to the jump gate and safety when I heard a target lock that was followed by a warp scrambler. My stomach dropped to the floor.
The gory details are
here, and add another 9.56 b to may tab. And for good measure, my capsule and implants at ~500 m.
Total: ~17.86 billion ISK.
Admittedly, Kern is slipping. He can't see the readout on his capsule's interior visual display like he used to but the neural-visual link looks just as good as it did 18 years ago.
"We're supposed to be immortal as capsuleers, but it seems that time catches up with us, nonetheless," thought Kern.
doesn't resent this.
This thought reminded him of something his father would say. "You hear that, Mr. Anderson? That is the sound of inevitability."
Kern had no idea where his father had gleaned this phrase but something about it had stuck in his mind.
Inevitability, he thought.
Kern knew his Obelisk and its content would be lost. He began to eject and destroy as much cargo as possible from the hold, seething at his own stupidity as much as the numerous opportunists now firing on his vessel.
"I guess in 18 years you'll lose sometimes," he thought.
The structural integrity of the Obelisk would fail imminently and the freighter that he had dubbed
Greenewreathe and flown for over ten years would be no more.
Kern felt his cheeks burn hot with embarrassment and anger even as the slightly gelatinous liquid in his capsule was circulated to cool him.
Kern's capsule was flashing a generalized hazard warning
EXTREME DANGER! EXTREME DANGER!
into his visual cortex.
He dismissed the visual warning with a sneer and after it blinked of he thought,
"SET infomorph activation protocol to STANDBY!" His capsule understood the neural link command and responded to his visual cortex, the words flickering across Kern's vision in the bright orange that immediately makes someone think of danger.
INFOMORPH ACTIVATION PROTOCOL INITIATED IN... ...2 ...1 PROTOCOL READY/STANDBY MODE NOW ACTIVE
"INITIATE emergency WARP!" Kern thought.
"DESTINATION system STAR!" "EXECU..." But, it was too late; Kern saw the final shot out of the acute angle of one of his capsule's camera droneS.
Simultaneously, he saw his capsule's primary computer react and send the readout to his visual cortex, nanoseconds before weapon impact.

"I'll see you in three seconds, Kern." It was his capsule's Virtual Consciousness echoing in Kern's auditory cortex, and he could hear the disgust and anger in her "voice".
"She hasn't lost in a long time," he thought.
1
NOW
For an imperceptibly brief moment a ridge on the top of Kern's capsule pulsed with bluish light, stopped, and then grew bright white and then blinked out.
The final shot landed on the pod, and Kern felt a sudden bone chilling shift in temperature. His vision faded and he was consumed in darkness.
Some empty seconds passed and then a white light made Kern open his eyes as he staggered from the clone vat, naked, dripping and wet.
He dry heaved onto the floor once, then twice and spat out some yellow bile that had collected in his mouth.
The bile began a slow descent toward the drain in the middle of this corridor that contained the inactive clones of other capsuleers, preserved in their vats, just as Kern had been a few moments earlier.
He grabbed a towel off the nearby rack and began drying himself.
"FUUUUCCCKKK!" Kern yelled with disgust and spat more bile toward the drain.
"Welcome, sir, to Foves. I am sorry about your recent demise. Is there anything I can do for you? Do you need anything for nausea?"
It was the medical concierge desk checking on Kern over a monitoring speaker.
"I need a couple days in an infomorph reaclimation suite." Kern said.
He paused, stretched his arms, the burst of adrenaline he felt upon activation of this clone was now fading..
He added, "...with two of the most gorgeous Gallente men you can find."
An uncommon but not unheard of request at a Home Station Medical Clone Lab.
"Very good sir. Give me an hour to make the preparations for you. In the mean time I suggest you relax in our capsuleer lounge that is located down the corridor past the door to your left." the attendant said.
"The clothing that you had most recently customized has been printed in the dressing room out the same door. Of course you can re-customize new clothing should you want to wear something different. Is there anything else sir?"
Kern walked toward the door to the dressing room while pulling a robe on..
"Yes, a hitman with a penchant for cruelty and a lust for blood," Kern said. He was now dressed in the provided robe and entered the dressing room.
"I'm sorry sir we do not make arrangements involving vendettas or kill rights," the younger man said. He added, much more quietly, "Although for you, I could put you in touch with an agent who offers location services."
"I'll keep that in mind, Mr. ahhh ?" Kern asked.
"Biracu Senedal, sir. A nurse here with the Federal Administration Bureau Offices. I noticed in your file, sir, that you are Intaki. Did you grow up in The Syndicate? If you don't mind me asking, what was that like? I haven't traveled much and am Intaki myself." he said with obvious excitement in his voice.
Kern raised his right eyebrow and said, "Mr. Senedal would you join me for a drink if you are available after your shift?"
"Oh I'd, I'd love to," Biracu stammered, but quickly recovered. "However I cannot drink here with a client as we're not allowed to fraternize on property."
"So let's fraternize off property Mr. Senedal. And you can cancel the request for the Gallente men. I think I have found something better." Kern said.
Kern could hear the smile on Biracu's face. "Oh, very good sir. My shift ends in two hours and I will send you the location of a lounge I enjoy when I have completed the prepartions for your suite. Until then the capsuleer's lounge is quiet and relaxing... our system doesn't get an excessive amount of traffic. I'll talk to you soon."
Kern took off the robe and dressed in the newly printed clothing that was in the dressing room.
"I bet he's 27,"Kern said.
From a distant speaker Kern heard softly,"I'm 32, sir."
Kern smiled and rolled his eyes to himself.
Time has a way of dilating and compressing in an infomorph reaclimation suite. Especially with good company.
But on the second day Biracu came to Kern's suite with strong look of concern on his handsome face.
"Kern I'm sorry that I read this but normally there's no problem but you haven't activated your new capsule so our office receives your mail, and um anyway... I... Well just read it." he said.
Kern took the digital paper from Biracu's hand. His eyes glanced over the short mail, and turned to daggers. He stiffened and turned around a moment and then took a deep breath and recomposed himself.
"Kern I'm so sorr..." Biracu stopped as Kern quickly raised a hand in an exaggerated way to indicate silence.
"No, I do not require pity... just sarcasm... and time." the last words were barely a whisper. Biracu could hear the venom dripping from them.
Biracu walked around Kern slightly to read his response to the mail. A smile crossed Biracu's lips as he stifled a laugh. "That's all you're going to say?" he asked.
"Brevity is the soul of wit," Kern responded.
"So what's next for you, Kern?"
Kern said nothing for a few moments his eyes seeming to search for something elsewhere.
"You said you had holiday time available? Let's go to the Syndicate and see the Intaki homeworld." Kern said.
Biracu's eyes widened with excitement. and he blurted, " I have four fucking days!"
Kern smiled and said, "That will be about perfect. And then after we get back I think I'll check on this new corp I heard of that is using a new type of consciousness to ..."
Kern failed to finish his sentence as Biracu kissed him passionately.
"Inevitability" Kern thought, as his father's voice faded from his mind.
"I'll show them inevitable." he thought.

2023.06.09 21:19 Local_Sprinkles_8574 Update About My Old Post
So I finished my first year of college with a 3.8 and we moved from the expensive apartment to the mobile home on a half acre that I bought. Katie and Diane had to move schools again but this was good for both of them as Katie kind of destroyed herself socially at her old school since my last post and was ready for a fresh start. Shes never had trouble making friends. She’s very extraverted and sociable. Diane’s new school is one of the best public schools in the area. I’ve always wanted to live in this area because of the schools and the close proximity to the town my family lives in and the town I work in. This move also put me directly in the center of the service area for clients so I am able to manage my caseload much easier and I am able to be home more often.
Katie isn’t doing much better in school but her behavior and attitude at home has much improved. Her therapy program is FINALLY going to start family therapy next week because they think she is finally ready for it.
I ended up taking a two month paid (THANK YOU WASHINGTON STATE!) family leave because her and I were both about to break and it was so helpful. After family leave, I’ve only been working my full time job for the most part. I work one shift every couple months at my other job to keep in good standing because it’s a good job.
My high school sweetheart and I reunited after 20 years and he moved in with us. My kids adore him. He helps around the house and connects with each of my kids in the ways they feel connection. He is also working so finances have been much easier. For the first time ever, I was able to drop $200 on carnival tickets!!!! He brings me coffee in bed every single morning and does so much to ease my stress. Katie sees this about him and I think it’s helping her feel more peace. I’m also happy that she will get to see an example of a healthy, loving relationship before she becomes an adult.
Since we have a yard, I was able to put our pool back up and Katie has been coming home after school with 1-5 teenagers to play in it. It makes my heart happy to see her surrounding by friends and smiling. She has been practicing aerial arts on our 12’ swingset as well.
Katie is at a place in therapy where she is starting to understand that she is in control of her outcome and that has helped her so much at home with accountability. My relationship with her is improving a lot and we are finding ways to connect. We live closer to my brother now too so she has been spending more time with her uncle.
Diane is coming out of her shell at school. She has some issues with anxiety (understandable) and I shared this with her teacher before she started. They arranged a time for us to come meet her classmates before starting and they all welcomed her with open arms. They were all so excited to meet her. Bullying isn’t an issue at this school at all which is a first in my 15 years of being a parent.
Our dog is super happy to have a half acre to run around on. He hasn’t had a single accident since we moved.
I’m still recovering from stress but I’m finding ways to do self care every day. I now have my own dirt to garden in instead of cramming 70 plants plants on an 8x10 balcony. This yard has so many medicinal plants so I’ve been saving and dehydrating them as a hobby. We even have a mature orchard with apples, plums, pears, and cherries!!! My boyfriends car has a roof rack so I am able to use my kayak again. I am finding a lot of joy in fixing up our little double wide. We bought a new washedryer and fridge (with an ice maker!!!) which made me feel good because I have never been able to do that. The previous owner left a bunch of tools and scrap wood/fencing so I found a good deal on a miter saw and have been making things like furniture and garden boxes. Another great thing about the move is that my best friend of 20 years lives a mile down the road!!!! It’s been like a happy reunion having her and my high school sweetheart around again.
To sum it up, we needed less financial stress and more connection with our loved ones. Because of my lack of time, none of us were getting that connection need met. We were so isolated and alone. Now we aren’t. Now things can get better.
