I know their tools pretty well and own a few, but I had no idea they were way out here!

Had no idea vevor was making brewing equipment! I really need to get back to it. My 15 gallon spike solo setup is languishing in the garage.

Don’t forget the mandatory quarterly drug testing at the shittiest understaffed LabCorp “branch” at least 45 minutes from both work and home.

Totally hazarding a guess here (cunninghams law?), but the 3rd panel of four is typically the end of the story/action with the 4th being the resolution of or reflection on the drama.

Can confirm.

The first one is him making fun of a reporter with a genetic condition.

Looks like £85 for the cheapest 2 coin set delivered internationally. £29.95 + £12.50 international shipping per coin (and it’s a set of 2).

It’s neat and all, but I’m gonna have to pass at that price.

OP made it to the mid 1600s in philosophy.

In general, no, you’re not crazy for considering active speakers. In fact, most desktop PC orientated speakers are active.

I think your specific selection is a bit suspect for nearfield audio and definitely for full spectrum listening (the 80hz bottom end of the frequency range will leave you looking for bass if you care at all).

To extrapolate on your metaphor, this is more like buying a farm tractor as a commuter vehicle. Sure it has wheels, an engine, and a steering wheel, but it isn’t exactly intended for on road use.

I went with active studio monitors for my desktop PC (Adam Audio T5V and a matching subwoofer) after fighting with interference from various other electronics and the mini amp I was using.

These are amazing speakers, but also quite large. They have standby mode and both xlr and rca inputs. They are wild overkill for what I do with them, but it made me happy.

I would consider their desktop system if I were to do it again to save some space. https://www.adam-audio.com/en/desktop/d3v/

There are dozens of other even cheaper options with great reviews that similarly fit your needs.

What else would a good actor do?

Sidenote: I think Face Off is a perfect embodiment of this sentiment. An objectively terrible movie with a monumentally dumb premise, and his acting is what takes it from unwatchable to downright fun.

Performative rage because he can barely swing that hammer. Chokes up to within a foot of the head. He clearly had some assistance do the damage shown at the end.

I do love it when these douche bags show just how poorly they meet the physical manifestation of their outrage.

One of my favorite 50:50s is branca menta and mezcal.

AKA:

I’ve not tried a combo with regular fernet, but I might have to give it a go.

Flex tape or other wet seal tape for hose repair.

Channel lock and a small mixed set of worm drive clamps.

Other things I don’t see mentioned: JB weld, RTV (silicone sealant), thread chasers, tire spoons, dialectric grease, all depends on the services you want to offer!

Time for a game of soggy biscuit!

Nope. But mine says “welcome foolish mortals.”

I made jungle birds with a rum blend instead of black strap last night (⅓ plantation oftd, ⅔ Appleton signature).

Guess I’m making them again tonight with some rye!

Me looking at the 529 I seeded for my kid born last year like

I was a little suspicious of watermelon and mint, but gin and cocchi americano?

Now I’m eyeballing this watermelon my friend bought for his kid and thinking half of it needs to disappear in the freezer. My bottle of Americano needs to be finished anyway. There’s really no way around it.

Love the variations too! I make a low abv brunch cocktail with roughly 2 americano, 1 grapefruit, and splashes of gin aperol and campari, finished with tonic or soda.

In case anyone is interested in the video and doesn’t want to give X any clicks:

Definitely. Anytime you’re fermenting in an open vessel, the CO2 builds up and pushes air out. If you stick your face below the lip of the vessel, and breathe in, the tingles get ya.
