    Cinci seems like the have a lot of guns. When I browse armslist, when I see something cool....its in the nasty natti. *eyeroll*

    They also carry wilson combat ARs at 22 three.  Pretty nice place.  Handgun selection wasn't impressive.  Different than the other stores.  They had a lot of baretta cz and glocks.  They had Several used kentucky state police issued glocks for sale too.  A little over priced in my opinion.  

  2. The store here in Cincinnati that's has any is target world.  They said the case is like $650 though.  A box of 50 is $30. so about 65 cents a round yuck.  But if you desperately need some they have tons.  But no 223 or 556

  3. what really kills me with this is they need me to make them a paper pattern of that shape so they can cut it.  but I have to make a wide enough black marker line around the edge so the "scanner" can see it so it's in their software for the CNC cutter.   so hold up, you mean to tell me I have to make you a patter for something you can literally punch the numbers into the software and make a arch with it.  don't tell me this isn't possible, I've used cad software.  you don't scan shit into it from a picture you take of it.  I literally do not understand what they are doing with this pattern now.  they're making me waste several hours making those if they are using a cnc cutter. I have to go to the house and make it from the old one then add an inch to the size (1/2" all the way around).  it takes me a lot of time.  why the fuck are they scanning it when they have CAD software?  oh that's right, the don't know how to fucking use it....

  4. ok bare with me i'm often terrible at telling a story.   so some background,  I'm a glazier.  I work with glass.  we have a local company that we buy glass from.  we send over orders, they make the glass.  this company has been around for decades.  so, I got a call from the girl who works there and who's job it is to go over these orders.    she tells me that (see attached picture) that my measurements dont make sense to her.  I need to give her more information.   ok now if you look at that picture.  the curved grids are 5/8 wide.  they have to match a lower window so their placement and spacing is important.   I said what more do you need?  she needs to know the measurement to the center of the grids.  I said it's right there on the paperwork.  you have all the info you need.  she got snippy and said no, it's not. that's the measurement from the inside edge to inside edge.  and I said you know how wide the grid is do the math.  she insists I redraw it so she can make it the the correct size.   

    this just set me over the top thinking about why I have to deal with someone that clearly doesn't know a god damn thing about building things.   am I wrong here?  I literally had to explain to her that if you add 5/8 to 11 1/4 thats 11 7/8 to the center of those.  because half of 5/8 is 5/16. you're going half way through 2 of them so at 11 7/8 will be their centers. all the info you need is right in front of you and it's impossible to make it wrong based on my drawing.   she said no, you need to draw it the other way so she can understand it.  I wanted to call her a window licking, face mask wearing dipshit liberal. now at this point i've wasted 15 mins on the phone and have to resubmit a drawing and wait for it to come back up in her pile.  I'm sure she'll call me again with another dipshit question.

    I worked at a machine shop before.  that is more info than what I got on engineering drawings. and if I needed to ask the engineers a question about something like that they would say I don't have any business doing that job.  

    is this our country now?  am I wrong for being this upset? why can't this company train these people better or hire people with skills.  I think we are fucking doomed as a nation folks unless we take a different approach with education.

  5.   it's never going to go away. the sooner you all get it and quit fearing it the better off everything will be.  it's going to eventually kill everyone it was going to kill anyway.  can't stop the inevitable.

    You know...thats a good question... And I don't like to think I simply lack empathy but I'm not sure anything would change my mind... Like I said, im not exactly against face masks even if the idea of it bothers my core a little bit... A good friend of mine almost lost his life to pancreatitus complications. He's been in the hospital for like a year during all of this. Finally gets out and his wife is leaving him, he can't walk anymore, he weighs 115lb... Dudes life went to shit over something that was such a fluke. I just feel like whatever is meant to be will be. I would be crushed if one of my loved ones got Corona and died from it, I'm not trying to minimalizw that. Just saying people die and I don't think all this nonsense were doing is worth it. My wife is in an at risk group and I worry about her every time she does snywhere (she's at her school campus right now) but as much as I worry for her safety I still can't bring myself to support mandated face masks... I'm a well educated person and I understand my viewpoint may lack logic to some, but it's how I feel and even if no one here will admit it, I'm not the only one 

    what a fucking cunt.  hope she dies a painful slow death

  7. I always find working the fastener tighter helps with getting the penetrating oil into the threads.  work it loose and tight a few times and it comes right off.  sometimes it will help to wire brush the crud off the exposed threads.

    My buddy's wife just told me that the rules for weekly filing for unemployment have changed as of today. She recieved a note from the state of Ohio that she must now do at least two job searches per week and keep a log for the next three years in case she is audited. How 'bout them apples? Is this true?

    they did that crap back in 2009/2010 too. except you had to do 6.  you're filing your weekly claims on their website back then.  and it asked for the name address and phone number for the company.  no big deal. I'd call places and ask if they're hiring. if no I put that down as an application.

    Are those cameras just for inside use? I see it says dust- and water resistant, but not water proof?

    indoor and outdoor.   they're weatherproof rating is IP67.   6 means dust tight   7 means immersion up to 1M of water. cables have a water resistant coupler.     http://www.dsmt.com/resources/ip-rating-chart/

    their housing is metal.   for the record they were selling for $159.99

  10. for some reason I had to take mine apart and plug the HD back in.  the serial cable wasn't connected all the way on the motherboard.  but now it's working.  qc issue.  I'm just glad I don't have to take it back because I just got done installing the damn cameras all day.
