I am aware of conversion kits and the like, I'm more interested in the idea of using mechanisms and designs for something else.

I'm mostly thinking appearance and function, I recognize that rim fire 22lr is absolutely not going to work in a center fire without some sort of conversion.

Welly tin.

They're those cute tins filled with themed bandaids you can get at Walmart. Normally they're brightly colored and targeted to small kids. Not only are they pretty good fabric bandaids but the tin is really reliable as a homemade med pack for camping. Small, light, brightly colored, and stupidly durable. Had mine in my bag for about 5 years now and it hadn't even dented.

 

Like, could you make a smaller version of a 1911 that fires 22lr instead of .45 by just scaling all the parts to the 22lr?

You can get butane and arc lighter inserts for zippo shells. I've had the arc lighter for going on 3 years, I've only had to charge it 5 times, it's gone through the wash twice now and it's still working great.

Bought my best friend the butane one the same time. She's a heavy smoker, not only is it her conversion starter but apparently it's been cheaper than buying bics.

My nvidia is of but still kicking, I'll have to give this a try too.

 

I have some old digital photos that I'd like to bring into modern resolutions, I know ai won't really be the same as doing it by hand but I doubt my grandma will notice. Is there a reliable site or way to use stable diffusion for this?

No idea. To be fair it works it well for him, he worked through covid and was the only one in the building that didn't catch it.

My brother used to put on extra coats just to hug people because the thought of touching humans sickened him.

Now he's a CMA in a nursing home.

That second one sucks because I love Fighting with the Melody, it's just such chaos

You're not alone there, snoop had an album come out the year before and after that both sold as explicit but that album didn't.

That's what the excess hydrogen canisters are for.

I liken it to the feeling of a room you've just reorganized or when the seasonal lighting changes and everything feels familiar but just a little different. These spaces feel like but permanent. It's not uncomfortable, just not common. Spending time in these places helps me think about the way things are arranged.

 

So our neighbors have been a growing problem for a few months now. They seem to be a flop house for six or seven people, most of them look high all day. They go out and Rev a Harley at 3am, they burn plastic been our houses in a fire pit, they have a new dog every two weeks because they keep getting out and getting hit by traffic in the busy street we live on, the current two have bit people. I'm not one to care how someone lives, but these folks make the rest of our slum neighborhood look downright utopian.

I've tried taking to them, they're stupidly hostile. I've put in complaints with the city, noise complaints with the police, they don't do anything about it. Does anyone have advice on dealing with this? I'm tired, at my wits end, and my small town tactics aren't as easy to pull off in a proper city.
