Assuming this is for recreational use and not SD, it's hard to go wrong with the Ruger MKIV pistols. I have a MKIII 22/45 Lite and a MKIII Hunter. Both are great plinkers and reliable even with...

Thanks! A few weeks ago. We went camping on top of a 10 pointer here in VA that was also near another 10 pointer. 20 points put me over the top. :)

Now to get my buddy up to MG. He's in the...

I would like to but they always hold them a long drive from NoVA and always on a weekend I'm not free. On top of that, at least here in NoVA, it's going to be a rainy weekend.

AC1Z has worked me...

Oh, one thing I just remembered...he hates him some AI. He even jokingly suggested dropping nukes on datacenters (specifically in CA and this part of VA).

The one and only time I was in Vegas, in 2022, it smelled like piss and desperation to me.

I can't remember if it was NM or AZ, but a couple years ago on our trip out west, we stopped at an intersection in a small town and there was a weed store on one corner and a pottery store on the...

Same. I didn't finish it either. Dude is definitely out there.

Yup. Phones themselves don't have much power. I don't know how much power a cell tower has, but the phones would definitely be impacted by a low power signal.

Huh, so that's what happened out there. My gym is nearby (I can see the lot from the 2nd floor windows) and I had to go the long way to get there yesterday. My daughter works at that gym and had to...

I haven't been a member in over a decade. I never saw the value and their online resources were a hot mess at the time (and apparently still are, but older hams struggle with technology so who...

I started out with 1.25, but when that started to feel normal, I bumped up to 1.5. Now that feels normal and being forced to use 1x sounds like the speaker is on methadone to my ears. :D

I...

So, you folks that listen to podcasts...

What speed? 1x, 1.3x, 1.5x, 2x?

1.5x here. I do the same on YT and Netflix.

I said steel core but misspoke. It's the steel jacket that is the problem because it can cause fires at outdoor ranges. Either way, steel cases garner scrutiny from the ROs and their...

I haven't purchased much from them but recently I bought 2 of their 15rnd Glock 48 (and others) mags. Both failed to lock back on empty within a single range trip, a problem that seemed to be...

Can't read while driving, which is where I listen to podcasts.

My list:
Camerosity (analog photography)
The Catch Bit Show (traditional pocket knives)
Classic Camera Revival (analog...

Frroooooooggggg Baseballllllll!!! :D

I loved how the interviewer broke character when Beavis was identified or how both Beavis and Butthead kept cracking up. I hope both instances were...

I think you're going to have to be a Gen X or late Boomer to get that one. :D

My local school system has an Econ class in High School that also covers personal finance. I can't recall if it's an elective or not, but Thing 1 took it. Thing 2 is only a sophomore and I think...

Should be g2g. My buddy uses their cheaper portable version.

Achieved SOTA Mountain Goat last weekend.
142 summits and nearly 1200 contacts in just under 4 years.

Are you saying he's...The Ass Man!?! :D

Chris

On one of my trips to the UK, I was in the office with my teammates and one of them received a package he was excited to open. As I watched him fumble with all sorts of implements trying to break...

Very often just looking and acting like you belong is enough for most folks...to the chagrin of security-minded folks everywhere.

That's also a common social engineering and physical pen testing tactic.
