My wife and I would consider another kid if the fed wanted to kick us an extra $25k per year.

A one time fee of $5K is hilarious. You'd maybe be able to cover the hospital bill from having the kid with that sum.

Thanks! I hope the little dude appreciates it. It was a royal PITA to put up 😆

Cheers, and thanks. The baby is still 2 months out, and the cat will not have access to the room once they're here.

Things like this make it really easy for me to not buy anything from Ubisoft.

It's amazing how many times I see this same headline, year after year. It's always a dude, too.

I'm curious about what ESC to run in my beetleweight. It's going to have 4, 22mm brushed motors and a 460oz servo. The plan is to run twin ESCs on a shared receiver, but different channels, obviously. Do I need a BEC for this application if I'm running a single 3S lipo?

What community here could help me answer that? I belong to about a half dozen groups on FB that'd have me pointed in the right direction within 30 minutes.

Forums were perfect for hobbies. Facebook is a lousy alternative. Lemmy isn't even in the running.

I feel like I need Facebook. I used to belong to dozens of forums between RC cars, aquarium stuff, and robotic stuff. All but one has shuttered, and Facebook Groups are my only option to connect with people for my hobbies, especially locals. Even state clubs used to have their own forums.

I dont know. I think there could be an inventory of replicas. You can get a 1911 in multiple calibers already, as you can many revolver frames. There's no reason they couldn't make custom ones.

With all the money spent on films, I'm amazed there isn't regulated "Hollywood" caliber firearms. Something incapable of chambering anything on the market, and only functions with the certified blanks.

Something akin to the way fake currency is controlled.

My childhood friend had a farmhouse that had a back door facing west (I believe that was the direction), and when you opened the door and a specific set of windows, the whole house turned into a wind tunnel. It was pretty cool. I remember his dad saying they'd design the houses that way on purpose.

Louisiana is so lame.

I'll always remember Cruz as that guy who fled his state during a crippling snow storm, and then tried to throw his family under the bus when he got called out in it.
