2024.05.20 09:30 Myrelin I had a bad fall, and now don't know what to do with myself.
This will be long, I'm sorry. I talk about SI, and there is blood from my fall so please please don't read on if it triggers you.
The context leading up to the fall is that I was diagnosed with BP2 by a psychiatrist who has been working as a sleep expert for decades, I initially went to him sleep issues. But the way he is, he wanted to make sure I'm ok in all respects, not just my sleep.
He would warrant a whole different post, and it's painful to talk about. I'll just say I trust him implicitly. Once I was on lamotrigine I was doing better for the first time in 20 years.
Then a depressive episode hit, and it was bad. SI the entire day; I was planning and planning without my brain giving me a breather.
General psychiatrist I started going to gave me 25mg of quetiapine which did fuckall. When I explained this to him he ghosted me, so had to go back to Dr. Sleep which I really didn't want.
Luckily someone cancelled, normally he's booked 4 months ahead. I don't think he'll ever know that his appointment was a hail mary; I was days from killing myself. He upped my quetiapine dose to 200mg, so it would actually work as an anti-depressant. He gave me Xanax XR to tide me over until quetiapine started working. It worked. I was doing better.
Then a week ago, I dropped a box I was carrying down my stairs, tripped over it, got turned around, and ended falling backwards, and headfirst onto my stone floor.
There was a moment, that feels like it was stretched out into hours, where my brain went over possible scenarios, and the logical conclusion was that I will die the moment of impact. Either because I brained myself, or because I snap my neck. Best case scenario I survive and become paralyzed. During this long moment I somehow accepted that I was going to die. Everything was calm, and quiet.
Then the impact happened, and it was so loud. I wasI started moving my limbs, then checking I remember thinking 'how?' followed by 'is my head still in one piece?'. So I turned onto my hands and knees, and looked down at a pool of blood. Before it fully registered blood was pouring down my face.
Texted a friend, while I cleaned the blood off the floor and held a towel to my head which got soaked. I was lucky; got away with a few stitches, concussion, and massive bruises on my back.
I get that I survived, but my brain somehow doesn't and still thinks I should be dead on that floor. I started sleeping downstairs on my sofabed. Every time I step foot on those stairs, I remember looking up at the stairs, knowing I'd be dead soon. I hear that bang that was my head reaching the stone floor. The head wound was near the top of my head; I should have died.
And now that's all that's reverberating in my mind, all day long (I also have OCD to make it more fun). And when I try to sleep, I have nightmares about it. I'm completely numb, like nothing matters. I tried emailing Dr. Sleep that I need a med adjustment because I can't sleep after an injury, but he didn't respond (again, whole different post). So I have no-one to turn to, and I feel I'm just existing, and I had to write it out here because I figured if anyone could understand it would be this community.
I don't know what to do, or how to deal with this. If you're still here, thanks for taking the time to read.
TL;DR - fell down a flight of stairs on my back and headfirst, unable to slow my fall. Brain knew and accepted I would die, but since I didn't my mind is flooded with the memory of the impact, the fall, and the thought during fall. I'm scared of using my stairs, and I don't normally do scared.

2024.05.20 09:29 marketingkirshnagwal How to Pick the Best Solar Inverter for Your Solar Panel System
Choosing the right solar inverter is crucial for maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of your solar panel system. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you make an informed decision.
submitted by marketingkirshnagwal to u/marketingkirshnagwal [link] [comments]
1. Understand the Types of Solar Inverters
String Inverters:- Best for: Standard residential and commercial setups.
- Pros: Cost-effective, simple installation, reliable.
- Cons: Performance can be affected by shading or panel orientation issues.
- Best for: Installations with shading issues or panels facing different directions.
- Pros: Each panel operates independently, maximizes energy production, easy to monitor.
- Cons: Higher cost, more complex installation.
- Best for: Large-scale solar power plants.
- Pros: Economical for large installations, efficient for bulk power conversion.
- Cons: Not suitable for residential or small commercial installations.
- Best for: Systems with energy storage or off-grid capabilities.
- Pros: Integrates battery storage, provides backup power, maximizes self-consumption.
- Cons: More expensive, requires more complex setup.
2. Consider Efficiency and Performance
Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT):- Ensure the inverter has MPPT capability, which optimizes the power output from your solar panels.
- Look for inverters with high efficiency ratings (usually 95% and above). Higher efficiency means less energy loss during the DC to AC conversion process.
3. Assess Your Energy Needs
System Size:- Match the inverter capacity to your solar panel system's output. Over-sizing or under-sizing can lead to inefficiencies.
- Consider your typical energy usage and future needs. If you plan to expand your system, ensure the inverter can handle additional capacity.
4. Check for Compatibility and Features
Battery Storage:- If you plan to add battery storage, choose a hybrid inverter that is compatible with your battery system.
- Inverters with built-in monitoring allow you to track your system’s performance in real-time, often via a smartphone app.
- Ensure the inverter supports net metering if you plan to export excess energy back to the grid.
5. Evaluate Reliability and Warranty
Brand Reputation:- Choose inverters from reputable brands known for reliability and customer support.
- Look for inverters with long warranty periods (typically 10-25 years). A longer warranty indicates confidence in the product's durability and performance.
6. Consider Installation and Maintenance
Ease of Installation:- Some inverters are easier to install and maintain than others. Microinverters, for instance, are mounted directly on the panels, which can make installation more complex but also simplifies system troubleshooting.
- Ensure that there is local support available for installation, maintenance, and repairs.
7. Evaluate Cost vs. Value
Initial Investment:- While cost is a significant factor, consider the overall value. A higher initial investment in a more efficient, reliable inverter can save money in the long run through increased energy production and lower maintenance costs.
- Calculate potential savings from higher efficiency, better performance in shading conditions, and any incentives or rebates available for specific inverter types.
Conclusion
Picking the best solar inverter for your solar panel system involves careful consideration of various factors, including the type of inverter, efficiency, compatibility, reliability, and cost. By understanding your specific needs and the characteristics of different inverters, you can make an informed decision that ensures optimal performance and maximizes the benefits of your solar energy system.2024.05.20 09:20 Consistent_Annual315 Hi everyone I'm trying to reach out to Milo and see if I can maybe talk with him about coming to Oklahoma City
 | I would take him on the most wonderful day here's my itinerary submitted by Consistent_Annual315 to fancybaglady2929 [link] [comments] And of course it would have to be what he like to so.. First we're going to go to a wonderful gym and there is a climbing wall at pool it's a little bit away but I can get us there don't worry. Then we're going to go to the botanical gardens there is so much to see there. Then I'm taking you to the gilded acorn or possibly willows or possibly the Flint or maybe mahogany, several lovely places downtown Oklahoma City. Then daily mass is Thursday Friday Tuesday at noon and we would do that. Then I drop off some supplies and help to some people from 1 to 4:00 when I can that is we barter and trade food, toilet paper medicine supplies. I was out of salt pepper and garlic and I had other foods so I was able to trade those foods for salt pepper and garlic until the first when I get more money. And then wait that was a total tangent sorry the itinerary I'm thinking first a great workout then the botanical garden then Mass at noon then lunch over at the Flint or mahogany and then I want to show you Capitol Hill the Oklahoma bar association is two doors down, there is the OU medical community off of Capitol Hill in the Northeast side of Oklahoma City. And then there is the wonderful building that I live in, Milo they make us wonderful food everyday and Monday through Friday. Sometimes it's soul food sometimes it's homemade I mean Cajun level gumbo or it's a mix of lovely beef shrimp. We have a wonderful community coordinator. And Milo if you ever wanted to move someplace the building right here where I am is perfect you would love it here the culture the community everybody loves one another and everybody would be highly supportive of your goals and everybody gets involved with one another. We have church services, we have a strong community of believers and there are some other difficult cases that need help some of them are leaving recidivism for the first time and they're trying to rebuild their lives. And Milo it would just be wonderful for you to be in Oklahoma City maybe just live here for a year or so at our building, it would be so great plus also also also also I want to plan a great big 40th birthday party for you because Milo it doesn't matter about 0 to 40 all of those years are just trading Wheels putting it all together. I may not always agree with you or like what you do or like how you act but I'm Linda like I tell Laura loomer I'm still everybody's friend like I tell crazy Ted and Jack and the rest is crazy men, I have no resentment towards them. I didn't like how Laura loomer got used and taking advantage of and she got hurt she deserves to be better paid and well paid and people are not noticing her work and there's just so much there because the young people versus the old people have very different ways of communicating. Look how Piers Morgan kind of mistreated Laura but Laura was just trying to do full disclosure and post I guess messages or something I don't know young people utilize technology in different ways than other men and women who are older utilize technology it's just a difference in generational matters The anti-Semitism must be stopped but it always existed so I don't know which is heartbreaking Milo. It just breaks my heart because I am from the Roman Catholic Italian Church the Serbian Orthodox church and through the Bible radio or they use the Scofield bible and the racist anti-semite bigotry misogynistic haters said that I can't have through the Bible radio and how Jay Vern and McGee is terrible because he used that translation. Jay Vernon McGee is a Bible teacher that could have wipe the floor with all these spiritual manipulations just like I do I take spiritual manipulations and wipe the floor with them |
2024.05.20 09:18 spatialtycoffee Need electrician recos: planning to replace all electrical wiring in the house due to high Meralco bill (Php31k)
Do you know where we can find a credible master electrician? We're planning to replace our electrical wiring (they suggested kahit sa labas na lang ng pader para hindi na gibain yung pader). Has anyone tried this or is it unsafe/impractical?
Context on why we decided to do this:
Our meralco bill went up to 30k this month after having an average of 20k bill in the past 12 months. A quick summary of our appliances and usual consumption:
What we have tried:
Any suggestions please on how to handle this, hirap na kami parang nagtatapon ng pera every month. :(

Context on why we decided to do this:
Our meralco bill went up to 30k this month after having an average of 20k bill in the past 12 months. A quick summary of our appliances and usual consumption:
- 2 inverter window type ACs - max 10 hrs at night only
- 1 non-inverter window type AC - max 10 hrs at night only
- 1 non-inverter window type AC (very old brand) - max 6 hrs at night only
- 1 inverter floor mount AC - max 4 hrs, 2x a week
- 1 inverter washing machine - used 2x a week
- 1 inverter ref
- 1 non-inverter small ref
- 6 fans - used at morning
- 1 microwave
- 1 desktop computer
What we have tried:
- checked if nagmahal ba yung rate ng Meralco and apparently, hindi naman as compared to last year. Either same or bumaba. What's weird is mas malaki consumption namin this year as compared to the previous years nang walang nadadagdag na major appliance (we even changed our old washing machine to a more efficient one).
- closed the circuit breaker for a few minutes to check if gumagalaw pa rin metro, hindi naman. So im not sure if it's safe to say na walang jumper na nakakabit.
Any suggestions please on how to handle this, hirap na kami parang nagtatapon ng pera every month. :(

We've compiled a list of affordable options that still offer top-quality performance, so you can make the most of the darkness without breaking the bank. Get ready to explore the world of night vision scopes with our expert recommendations. The Top 7 Best Cheap Night Vision Scope
Reviews🔗Hike Crew Night Vision Binoculars with Camera for Superior Photography and Videohttps://preview.redd.it/0u3l529u7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=513f16760504154e1a6a9442f253e4782af3c507 I recently had the opportunity to try out Hike Crew's Digital Night Vision Binoculars, and let me tell you, they delivered an experience unlike any other. With features like fixed focal magnification, digital magnification, and an integrated screen, I felt like I was exploring a new world after dark. The luminescent LCD screen presented the sharpest images and allowed for visual clarity, which reduced eye strain and allowed me to enjoy my nighttime adventures for longer periods. The soft, roomy eye cups were a game-changer, providing comfort and accommodating various users. The night vision goggles even provided a daytime viewing distance of 400 meters and a nighttime viewing distance of 100 meters, making me feel like I was a character in a movie. Using up to a 32GB SD card, I was able to capture photos and videos of my experiences, preserving the memories of my nighttime escapades. The included neck/shoulder strap made it easy to carry and move from place to place without worrying about the binoculars falling off. However, there were a few areas that could be improved. The lack of an instruction manual made it difficult for first-time users to understand how to use the device properly. Additionally, the uncoated glass made the binoculars more susceptible to scratches and damage. Overall, I found the Hike Crew Digital Night Vision Binoculars to be an excellent tool for exploring the nighttime world. With its advanced features and high-quality image clarity, it's no wonder why so many people give it a thumbs up. While there are a few areas that could use some improvement, the device is certainly worth the investment for those seeking an unforgettable nighttime experience. 🔗Night Vision Binoculars: Affordable and Powerful Darkness Viewing Optionhttps://preview.redd.it/xa80m8ou7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a9355020be6e386dbde22d5f9a216a629e07bb1a As a night sky enthusiast who frequently enjoys stargazing, I decided to give the Night Scope Binoculars a try. The product has been on the market for a while now, and with it being touted as a budget-friendly night vision scope, I couldn't resist giving it a test run. It comes in a sleek individual box, making it easy to store and transport. Upon opening the box, I was excited to see that it comes with a 4x power scope, a convenient pop-up light that can illuminate up to 25 feet, and green tinted lenses perfect for surveillance tasks. The focus knob and spotlight switch allowed for easy adjustment and control, and the included gray nylon neck strap was comfortable and secure. However, what really caught my attention were the downsides of this product. Despite its advertised features, the image quality was lacking, making it difficult to identify objects in the dark. The focus knob and light switch often struggled to balance, making it tough to achieve the desired visual outcome. Additionally, the product label indicated that it was "Made in China, " which left me with concerns regarding the overall quality of the product. In conclusion, while the Night Scope Binoculars does come with a sleek design and a few helpful features, the actual functionality and image quality leave much to be desired. For those looking for a more reliable and effective night vision scope, it may be worthwhile to invest in a higher-quality option. 🔗Affordable Night Vision Scope with Infrared Illuminator and Video Recordinghttps://preview.redd.it/scqk3qzu7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=295815124bf6eda9e4a60299a9d9f9cc03b6655b Recently, I got my hands on the JStoon Digital Night Vision Monocular with Infrared Illuminator and Video Recording. This little guy offers quite a punch when it comes to capturing the night world. It's packed with features that impressed me right off the bat. First off, the 24mm objective lens provides a clear view with 3X optical magnification and 4X digital zoom. That means if I'm keeping an eye on a far-off target, it doesn't shy away from delivering crisp, detailed images. But what really blew me away was the infrared illuminator. Now, this is not your run-of-the-mill flashlight that lights up your way during the night; it's a feature that enables me to observe targets in pitch-black conditions up to a whopping 984 feet away! And if you're caught in a low-light or full-day situation, you're covered too! The observation distance is infinite, ensuring you can spot things as they are without needing any extra help. Now, let's talk about the fun part - the video recording feature. This gadget not only captures clear images but also allows you to record high-quality videos. However, one downside is that it doesn't record any sound, which could be a deal-breaker for some. But hey, not everyone wants a video with sound, right? Lastly, the handheld device comes with a 1.5-inch TFT LCD for playback, making it convenient to relive those precious moments. Plus, the convenient rotating focus handwheel makes image adjustment a breeze. Overall, the JStoon Digital Night Vision Monocular is a fantastic nighttime companion for those looking for an affordable yet efficient solution. It's a pocket-sized treasure trove, just waiting to unveil the dark mysteries of the night. 🔗Affordable Night Vision Monocular for Hunting and Outdoor Adventureshttps://preview.redd.it/xtpx87fv7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=69c59fdec16b04320c4745444d5ad0604ffde037 I recently tried the SKYXIU Night Vision Goggles, and it's been a game-changer for me during my nocturnal adventures. The first thing that stood out was its ability to capture clear images and videos even in complete darkness. It uses a no-glow infrared system, which means no ambient light is required for capturing high-quality photos. The zoom feature is quite impressive as well. At 5x digital zoom and a 25mm objective lens aperture, I could easily observe my surroundings with great detail. Recording 1080P HD images and videos is a breeze, and the USB cable included makes it easy to save and share my experiences with family and friends. The 3W IR LED light is another fantastic feature. It enables me to spot targets up to 984 feet away without any ambient light. The 7-speed adjustable infrared design allows for customization based on different environments, which has been great for various outdoor activities. In terms of design, the SKYXIU Night Vision Goggles are ergonomic and lightweight, weighing only 190 grams. The cushion belt helps to record pictures or videos stably, making it comfortable to use for extended periods. It's also super convenient to carry around due to its pocket-friendly size. Lastly, the 5 keys multi-function option makes this infrared monocular versatile. Whether you're hunting, camping, fishing, or even doing search and rescue, this device has got your back. Overall, I'm thoroughly impressed with the SKYXIU Night Vision Goggles and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and functional night vision tool. 🔗Affordable 4K Digital Night Vision Binoculars for Hunting and Shootinghttps://preview.redd.it/1tdd0orv7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5499a55708e293731ae6010032f94072f5dc2090 I recently tried out the Profey 4K Night Vision Goggles, a reliable tool for both hunting and casual stargazing. The first feature that caught my attention was the 3-inch large screen, allowing me to view vivid and sharp images in complete darkness. The 5x digital zoom and 2x optical zoom made it effortless to track targets accurately, even from a considerable distance. However, the rubber stripes armor felt a bit awkward in hand, and I had to adjust my grip a few times to keep my vision steady. Despite this minor inconvenience, the fully multi-coated 25mm objective lens provided me with a clear and crisp view, making the goggles well worth the investment for a daytime and nighttime adventure. Overall, the Profey 4K Night Vision Goggles have become an essential companion for my wildlife excursions, offering an unparalleled experience in the dark. 🔗Affordable Night Vision Binoculars for Outdoor Adventureshttps://preview.redd.it/samygq8w7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6570dc78359cd6f7bfe5554aae53446ea49eeea9 I recently gave these night vision binoculars a spin on my camping trip, and I must say, they worked like a charm. With its adjustable optical system and 2.4-inch large display, I was able to spot nocturnal creatures from afar, and the 1080P video resolution provided stunning visuals. The battery-powered design is quite convenient, and the ergonomic grip is both comfortable and practical. I did notice, however, that the night vision infrared functionality drained the battery fairly quickly, but it was more than compensated by its clear images and videos. Overall, it's a great gift for outdoor enthusiasts like myself. 🔗Rexing B1 Night Vision Goggles: Affordable, High-Quality Binoculars for Night Vision and Securityhttps://preview.redd.it/32pw5vgw7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41179877fbc07c445e7ed24b9d4d9805ed3e760e As someone who loves outdoor activities, the Rexing B1 Night Vision Goggles Binoculars have been a game-changer for me.

In this section, we'll discuss essential features, considerations, and general advice to help you make an informed decision when purchasing a budget-friendly night vision scope. Let's dive right in.Important Features to Consider
https://preview.redd.it/dl5nql3x7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=116514ee2c1f660b35aa4d1bb3b3c6a41ec253a4 Gen 1 vs. Gen 2 TechnologyGen 1 and Gen 2 night vision scopes differ in their sensitivity and image quality. Gen 1 scopes are more affordable and suitable for hobbyists or casual users, while Gen 2 scopes offer better image quality and a more accurate representation of colors. If you're on a tight budget, a Gen 1 scope may be the best choice for you.Lens Quality and ApertureThe quality of the lens and its aperture size can significantly affect the scope's performance in low-light conditions. Look for a scope with a high-quality lens and a larger aperture for better light gathering and image brightness.Image Intensity Tube (IIT)The IIT is responsible for converting the infrared light captured by the lens into visible light. A higher-quality IIT will provide clearer and more detailed images, which is crucial for identifying targets at night. https://preview.redd.it/f7zlfodx7j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5eadd6df4fe3c58d607bec7417df03077d43aade Power Output and RangePower output refers to the brightness level of the scope, while range indicates how far the scope can detect objects. A higher power output can help you see further but may reduce the scope's usability in bright conditions. Consider your intended use and the typical range you'll need when shopping for a cheap night vision scope.Field of View (FOV) and Eye ReliefFOV refers to the width of the visible area through the scope, while eye relief is the distance between the eye and the scope's eyepiece to maintain a clear image.

I started by dimming the north-facing windows, slowly enough to merely catch Kregorim's attention; he responded by turning his head to face them and letting his bushy eyebrows rise a bit, but generally keeping a neutral stance. Then, I animated a glowing white dot appearing on the duskward wall at roughly chest-height to my new visitor, then extending it vertically into a line, then expanding it laterally into a door. Then, I let my avatar open it 'from his side', walk through, and close it again.
“I'm called Joachim,” I said, animating the avatar's mouth to match my movements, along with rubbing the back of his head with his left hand. “And I have to say that that spell of yours was... an interesting experience.”
Kregorim nodded and offered a stiff bow. “Then we would seem to have been equal partners in the exchange,” he answered, the barest trace of a twinkle in what I could pick up of his eyes; if he had anything like a smirk under that thicket of facial hair, I couldn't detect it. “So, are there any other introductions to be made? Exchanges of oaths or demands for sacrifices, things of that nature?”
I chuckled, and pointed at the fabricators behind him. “Introductions, certainly. No sacrifices of baubles or blood, if that was what you expected. But I'd advise you to get some practice in making your own furniture. It'll take a bit of explaining, even if I try to trim it down.”
Kregorim nodded, and this time I could definitely hear a chuckle in his voice. “I would be highly disappointed were that not the case, Joachim of the mysterious outpost,” he answered. He gestured at the fabricators. “Would you mind offering a weary old scholar some assistance with these marvelous machines?”
I animated the avatar nodding, then waving at the walls. “You may have noticed that the chambers in which your...” the avatar coughed into one hand, then continued, “... Lord Zortemos Egenor Lignignory the Fourth has been settling have those empty frames on the walls of each room?” The avatar pointed off to one side, and a simplified version of the baseline model of the communication-screens appeared a handsbreadth away from his finger. “I can see and hear through them, and they have other functions as well, but this unit specifically includes the fullest expression of the tool.”
With that, I 'jumped' the avatar onto the dawnward wall of the utility room, releasing another light coughing sound to let Kregorim know where 'he' had gone. “This way, at least, I won't need to raise my voice so it carries further...”
Still, I satisfied his curiosity about the need for five 'magic trunks' in rather short order, and once he got into his own set of 'wondrous finery' he tossed his 'traveling robes and unmentionables' into the 'laundry' trunk. Once he'd gotten the remaining machines programmed for things like a camp-cot and bedding, a chair and writing desk and a samovar of all things, I sort of walked him through the rest of the unit's features.
“Quite an array of tankards,” he commented, in the kitchen. “Stocked well enough to entertain guests of a stature from Orks all the way down to Gnomes, unless I'm very much mistaken.”
I animated the avatar nodding. “I'll need to explain more about that, but you and the rest of the group aren't my first guests.”
He nodded, and turned to face the avatar; his smile was wide enough to re-arrange the forest of his facial hair. “I'll try to keep from disappointing Lord Zee overmuch on the point,” he said, then turned to face the refrigerator. “Another magic trunk?” he asked, examining it without touching it. “Wider than the others... does this one produce foodstuffs?”
“Not 'produce' them, as such, but it does serve as a 'cold well', of sorts. The upper section keeps things moderately cool, the lower section keeps them frozen.”
That got another look of wonder out of him. “You can maintain ice in there, without magic?” he asked, pulling out the freezer-drawer and confirming it for himself. “What manner of foods are these?” he went on, examining the squared, shrink-wrapped blocks and rounded tubs.
“Soups, meats, and vegetables, for the most part. The rounded tubs are sort of an experiment for a dessert.”
“I don't suppose you could allow a hungry traveler something a bit more substantial?”
“You skipped past the cold box,” I pointed out. “I've been experimenting with various kinds of meats as well as vegetable dishes...”
“Soups of some sort...?” he asked, closing the freezer-drawer and opening the refrigerator. He paused, visibly confused, before extracting one of the wrapped and sealed 'meal bowls', turning it to examine it from three different angles, then replacing it to examine another, and then another. Finally, he selected one and turned to face the avatar. “The lid has markings resembling words, but I cannot say with confidence that I comprehend them precisely,” he said. “What is meant by... 'Pasta Salad Experiment Number 8'... if you don't mind?”
The avatar pointed. “The silverware you'll probably want is in the second drawer from the end,” I said. “As far as your question is concerned, I have... several different kinds of farms in the spaces below the living quarters up here on the surface, and a rather large library of information from my home that permits me to make approximations of a small but growing number of food.” I added a slight blush to the avatar's cheeks. “I have no capacity to taste or smell things, at least as you or the others might, so I have no idea whether you'll find it appetizing. All I can tell you is that I have a limited stock of various spices in the cabinet just to the right of this box, which is known as a 'refrigerator' in my language. If you feel the need to repay me for my hospitality, you're welcome to help me learn the names for the spices while we talk.”
From there, I walked him through an explanation of the 'dish washer' and 'stove' before guiding him through a simple tour of the rest of the house. The bathroom intrigued him, but he expressed even greater fascination with the barbecue on the back patio, especially the 'fuel pellets' I provided in sealed bags from one of the lower shelves.
“Why bother with such means, when these other amazing machines can cook food with greater precision?” he asked.
“My function, the reason I exist, is to help people recover from disasters,” I answered, when he came back inside from admiring the stonework of the patio handrails. “If they happen to be more comfortable cooking their own food over a fire, I want to help them do so. Hence, the cookfire station out there. It's called a 'barbecue grill' in my language, by the way.”
“...'Your language'...” he repeated, returning to the main room and settling down into his chair with a flagon of water in his right hand. “You've also mentioned 'your home' at least once in my hearing. May I ask where you come from?”
Hoo, boy. The tough questions...
“I'm from a lot further away than you might think, to begin with,” I explained. The avatar pointed south with his right hand, in the general direction of one of the four moons glowing in the sky. “For one thing, I'm from a place with only one moon.” The avatar tapped 'his side' of the wall with the other, and an equatorial-perspective image of Earth showing North and South America along with a portion of Antarctica down at the bottom. “This is a special kind of illusion, showing details of my home from far above its surface,” I explained.
Kregorim's eyes widened and he took a long pull from his flagon. “Seas, forests, deserts, mountains, wintry wastelands,” he murmured, attention moving from one detail to the next, until finally he straightened up in his chair. “... None of the lands with which I have knowledge appear here,” he stated. “And I suspect that this globe's other face will reveal similar mysteries.”
I animated the avatar shrugging. “Likely.”
I considered my next words very carefully. “Since I arrived here, 24 days ago, I have watched the heavens as best I can. From what I have discerned, the local star... or your sun... is measurably different than mine. I haven't been able to pick out any local planets yet, but I can say for certain that if any of the stars in your sky are the ones my people had cataloged, they're too far away for me to positively identify as such.”
Kregorim took that in, eyebrows twitching, and drained his flagon dry. He took it away from his mouth with a scowl, directed at the offending drinkware, but reduced its intensity before turning back to address the avatar. “I don't suppose you've managed to produce anything like a good strong ale since you've arrived?” he asked. “Our own supplies of such things are unlikely to be fit for drinking.”
I animated the avatar raising an eyebrow and waggling a finger. “I've none available, alas, though I do have some rather promising teas,” I told him. “You'll need to fabricate a teapot, though.”
He got up and proceeded to do so. As he did, I continued, “As far as your assessment of whatever ale you've managed to carry with you, I would ask you to ask the servants to pour whatever portion of it they wish to discard into the nearest convenient sink. Hopefully, you'll be able to get the word to them before they reach that stage of unloading.”
The avatar flicked the image of Earth away, then tapped 'his side' of the wall four more times. With each one, a new visual-window opened: one displaying the view just outside the foyer, another the main stairwell from the camera on the half-step just above the second-floor landing, the third the first-floor walkway (identifiable as such by the view of Lord Zee bustling in and out of the doorway to 'his' quarters, giving directions to the flow of 'servants') and the final one the view of the ground-floor walkway.
Up among the caravan, Thusarrel acted as a kind of traffic-director, guiding groups of servants with gestures and shouts to one wagon after another, in an order that made no particular sense to me. The 'flackaroos' stayed in the center, managed by three ragged-looking folk who seemed to know what they were doing; they also hurried to rake up any droppings as quickly as possible, out of the foot-traffic of the flow of servants carrying as mismatched a collection of luggage, furniture, decor and miscellany as ever came out of an estate sale. Kregorim's wagon remained mostly ignored, though the stair-steps remained down.
On the main staircase, Adallinda and Pippa made their way downward, the 'lady' scowling at the lines of servants passing her in both directions and flowing around her too-wide dress as smoothly as possible. Pippa guided her charge to frequent rest stops on the half-landings, sparing a moment here and there to nod back at the silent looks of gratitude from the luggage-bearing people.
“You're certain that my greedy brother and cousin have both gone for the chambers adjacent to my father's, Pippa?” Adallida demanded.
Her servant nodded once, then offered her hand to help steer the young lady back into the flow of foot-traffic. “Of course, my lady, “ she answered. “They both wish for the honor of being physically closest to your father's chosen quarters, though your other cousin and sister have likely out-raced them..."
On the first-floor view, from the camera opposite the service staircase and now pointing toward the lobby, I just caught a glimpse of Bhiocasaid shepherding Zoti into the second 'double unit' on the first floor, Yera and Totra actually holding the somnambulent Zoti while Bhiocasaid held off Nehdud and Haruinn as they protested the two ladies staking their claim ahead of the 'more worthy young lords' of the family.
“We're not sharing quarters with you beasts, and that's simply that!” she shouted at them. “If you want your own choice of suitable quarters, you'd better get down to the ground-floor and claim one before Adallinda does!”
The boys blinked at her, then looked at each other. Nehdud spun on his heel and raced back to the cliff-face lounge area, shoving his way through the flow of servants. I winced as I watched him making half-hearted goo-goo eyes and kissy-faces at whichever of them had obviously female shapes under their travel-rags. The female servants burdened with effects, even boxes the size of filled shopping bags that couldn't possibly require two people to hold, found themselves getting extra help to disguise both women's use of the item in question as a makeshift shield against his efforts. However slowly he was moving, though, he still made faster progress than Haruinn could possibly manage.
Adallinda's voice rang out from below, shrieking in triumph. Through the final view-window, Kregorim and I observed as she managed to slap her hand on the not-glass biometric scanner next to the door to the lower double-unit, Pippa now holding the sweating lady up and maneuvering her through the door, a line of six servants carrying baggage behind them.
Nehdud pushed through the line of servants to stand in front of the handrail, slamming his fist on the stone with one hand and snarling. Then he turned to look at Haruinn, noting his near-complete lack of movement, and his rage turned to a grin. He waved at his rival for the remaining double-suite, then resumed his efforts to force his way through the flows of servants.
Haruinn clenched his fists, until Midmolk pointed at the 'service stairway' just next to the now-claimed double-unit. “Their position matches something similar on the door below, master,” he pointed out.
Haruinn nodded, clanking his way to them at best possible speed, Midmolk following with the tower-shield. The Lignignory male slapped his hand on the palm-scanner; I granted him temporary access, mostly because I wanted to see if he could possibly beat that smarmy Nehdud if he had a clearer path. The young man succeeded in surprising me by gesturing at Midmolk, who handed him the tower-shield. He proceeded to ride it down the two half-flights of stairs like a sled, scraping the heck out of the finish and arriving at the ground-floor before Nehdud made it all the way through the lobby.
Haruinn pushed himself to his apparent limit, huffing and red-faced, as he quick-marched with all of that extra metal on his front to reach the palm-scanner and slap his hand on it.
Just as Nehdud threw open the door from the ground-floor lobby to see him do it.
The knife-burdened man strode into his doorway while Nehdud sank to his knees with a frustrated scream.

Mission Log: Day 0024
Addendum 04
Well. The jig would seem to be up, as the old folks used to say. I started by dimming the north-facing windows, slowly enough to merely catch Kregorim's attention; he responded by turning his head to face them and letting his bushy eyebrows rise a bit, but generally keeping a neutral stance. Then, I animated a glowing white dot appearing on the duskward wall at roughly chest-height to my new visitor, then extending it vertically into a line, then expanding it laterally into a door.

Addendum 05:
Kregorim turned out to be a very quick study. I walked him through designing some new clothes, starting from the base model of a Chinese scholastic robe but incorporating a three layers of lighter fabric in something more akin to a Japanese kimono. Yes, I helped him figure out some more practical forms of undergarments, and the very concept of 'elastic' fascinated him; I left a mental note to explore 'latex' and the organic sources thereof with him at some later point. And, of course, getting to the first pair of suitable 'house slippers' presented no challenge at all. Still, I satisfied his curiosity about the need for five 'magic trunks' in rather short order, and once he got into his own set of 'wondrous finery' he tossed his 'traveling robes and unmentionables' into the 'laundry' trunk. Once he'd gotten the remaining machines programmed for things like a camp-cot and bedding, a chair and writing desk and a samovar of all things, I sort of walked him through the rest of the unit's features.

Addendum 06
Kregorim devoured the first salad, admitting between bites that the Lignignory family's exit from the Ducal lands to the south had been somewhat hurried and therefore their dining-experiences had been something of a gamble. “We've managed to trade for many things as we head north,” he commented. He had figured out how to get clean drinking water from the kitchen sink into an Ork-scaled flagon without much prompting, and after swallowing five mouthfuls proceeded to turn his attention to the salad. I explained the basic ingredients and principles of 'pasta', as he considered a segment of neo-rotini on his fork. He ate it, a thoughtful expression on his face, eventually dubbing it 'surprisingly flavorful'. From there, I walked him through an explanation of the 'dish washer' and 'stove' before guiding him through a simple tour of the rest of the house. The bathroom intrigued him, but he expressed even greater fascination with the barbecue on the back patio, especially the 'fuel pellets' I provided in sealed bags from one of the lower shelves.

The 'flackaroos' stayed in the center, managed by three ragged-looking folk who seemed to know what they were doing; they also hurried to rake up any droppings as quickly as possible, out of the foot-traffic of the flow of servants carrying as mismatched a collection of luggage, furniture, decor and miscellany as ever came out of an estate sale. Kregorim's wagon remained mostly ignored, though the stair-steps remained down.
On the main staircase, Adallinda and Pippa made their way downward, the 'lady' scowling at the lines of servants passing her in both directions and flowing around her too-wide dress as smoothly as possible. Pippa guided her charge to frequent rest stops on the half-landings, sparing a moment here and there to nod back at the silent looks of gratitude from the luggage-bearing people.
“You're certain that my greedy brother and cousin have both gone for the chambers adjacent to my father's, Pippa?” Adallida demanded.
Her servant nodded once, then offered her hand to help steer the young lady back into the flow of foot-traffic. “Of course, my lady, “ she answered. “They both wish for the honor of being physically closest to your father's chosen quarters, though your other cousin and sister have likely out-raced them..."
On the first-floor view, from the camera opposite the service staircase and now pointing toward the lobby, I just caught a glimpse of Bhiocasaid shepherding Zoti into the second 'double unit' on the first floor, Yera and Totra actually holding the somnambulent Zoti while Bhiocasaid held off Nehdud and Haruinn as they protested the two ladies staking their claim ahead of the 'more worthy young lords' of the family.
“We're not sharing quarters with you beasts, and that's simply that!” she shouted at them. “If you want your own choice of suitable quarters, you'd better get down to the ground-floor and claim one before Adallinda does!”
The boys blinked at her, then looked at each other. Nehdud spun on his heel and raced back to the cliff-face lounge area, shoving his way through the flow of servants. I winced as I watched him making half-hearted goo-goo eyes and kissy-faces at whichever of them had obviously female shapes under their travel-rags. The female servants burdened with effects, even boxes the size of filled shopping bags that couldn't possibly require two people to hold, found themselves getting extra help to disguise both women's use of the item in question as a makeshift shield against his efforts. However slowly he was moving, though, he still made faster progress than Haruinn could possibly manage.
Adallinda's voice rang out from below, shrieking in triumph. Through the final view-window, Kregorim and I observed as she managed to slap her hand on the not-glass biometric scanner next to the door to the lower double-unit, Pippa now holding the sweating lady up and maneuvering her through the door, a line of six servants carrying baggage behind them.
Nehdud pushed through the line of servants to stand in front of the handrail, slamming his fist on the stone with one hand and snarling. Then he turned to look at Haruinn, noting his near-complete lack of movement, and his rage turned to a grin. He waved at his rival for the remaining double-suite, then resumed his efforts to force his way through the flows of servants.
Haruinn clenched his fists, until Midmolk pointed at the 'service stairway' just next to the now-claimed double-unit. “Their position matches something similar on the door below, master,” he pointed out.
Haruinn nodded, clanking his way to them at best possible speed, Midmolk following with the tower-shield. The Lignignory male slapped his hand on the palm-scanner; I granted him temporary access, mostly because I wanted to see if he could possibly beat that smarmy Nehdud if he had a clearer path. The young man succeeded in surprising me by gesturing at Midmolk, who handed him the tower-shield. He proceeded to ride it down the two half-flights of stairs like a sled, scraping the heck out of the finish and arriving at the ground-floor before Nehdud made it all the way through the lobby.
Haruinn pushed himself to his apparent limit, huffing and red-faced, as he quick-marched with all of that extra metal on his front to reach the palm-scanner and slap his hand on it.
Just as Nehdud threw open the door from the ground-floor lobby to see him do it.
The knife-burdened man strode into his doorway while Nehdud sank to his knees with a frustrated scream.

I've started a new job at freshly opened barestaurant as a bartender. The place is really looking amazing but I have a big problems dealing with incompetent leadership which is making lifes of all employees unbereable. My bar manager is a great guy, but completly disorganised person. Long story short, they opened a place without any clear concept, structure and order prior to opening which resulted in a situation that I am having a broken back, working 12, 14, 18 hrs shifts, barbacks that is doing everything else except barbacking, people (15 yrs old girls and boys) working in a cafe part who can't make espresso! and 10000 other stuff, the place have 7 investors and each one of them have their kind of idea what should be done, you have bar and restaurant managers that are doing everything else except the managing and leading the team (ordering a sakes, japanese knifes and shakers for their personal use), sitting at a laptop and looking at god knows what while bartenders and servers are dying on the floor. The plan was that the place is going to be a lounge bar (crafty cocktails, spirits, etc. which I love to work with) but it turn to be a night club hillbilies coming to the place and I don't know what to dooo

It's a large scale, intricate game that takes hours of planning each week. It's all homebrew except the setting, I'm writing the story week to week, and each game is 4-6 hours of me running the show.
It's a lot of hard work and dedication.
I'm currently in a depressive state not a manic state and I'm still pulling it off pretty well.
Here's hoping it goes well! It's a massive undertaking, and I can't believe I put it all together.

In this article, we explore some of the most affordable gun safes available on the market, helping you protect your investment without breaking the bank. The Top 19 Best Cheap Gun Safes
Reviews🔗Stack-On Beveled 18-Gun Security Cabinet - Protect Your Valuableshttps://preview.redd.it/ggwlu92d4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=057e80d99c53b971637032eef3f392d51a014be7 The Stack-On Beveled 18-Gun Security Cabinet, Steel, is a reliable and durable option for storing your rifles, shotguns, pistols, and other valuable belongings. The exterior finish is a sleek black, and the interior is spacious with an abundance of storage options. One of the main draws of this cabinet is its strong security features, including a key-coded cylinder lock and 4-way door locking system. However, the most disappointing aspect of this cabinet is its build quality. The thin metal sheets and weak locking mechanism make it an untrustworthy option for securing your precious firearms and valuables. I had high hopes for this cabinet, but unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. I found the installation process to be somewhat difficult and time-consuming as well. On a positive note, the steel shelves are a nice touch for added durability and support. They make it easier to organize your firearms and accessories, and the adjustable half-width shelves allow for customization. Additionally, the molded barrel rests and foam-padded bottom provide an extra level of protection for your antique firearms. Unfortunately, the interior design is not as well thought out as it could be. The placement of the barrel rest holes is not ideal for all firearms, and some users have noted that the paint job inside the cabinet is of poor quality, leading to rust formation. Overall, while the Stack-On Beveled 18-Gun Security Cabinet, Steel, has its merits, the build quality and installation process are significant drawbacks that cannot be ignored. 🔗Top-rated, affordable gun safe with robust security featureshttps://preview.redd.it/k4jvpdid4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4c5246bbd8c25170967b4cec4a70d0a69e0b7820 I recently had the opportunity to put the Fort Knox PB1 Handgun Safe to the test, and I must say I was impressed with its durability and functionality. This safe's 10-gauge steel body and 3/16-inch wraparound door make it practically impossible to break open, ensuring that your valuable firearms are well protected. I particularly enjoyed the gas-strut-assisted heavyweight door, which makes lifting the door a breeze and holds it open for easy access. The Simplex push-button mechanical locking system is a winner in my book. It's fast and easy to use, providing up to 1,081 different combinations to keep your safe secure. The textured grey powder coat finish adds an elegant touch while still exuding a sense of strength and quality. The interior features egg crate foam lining to protect your firearms, guns, and magazines from scratches and damage. One of the standout features for me was the convenience of pre-drilled holes for easy bolting down. It made setting up the safe a breeze and allowed me to feel confident that it wouldn't be going anywhere. The only downside I experienced was the limited number of combination possibilities, which could potentially make it easier for someone with ill intentions to access the safe. Still, this safe's overall build and security features outweigh this minor inconvenience. The Fort Knox PB1 Handgun Safe is the perfect solution for gun owners looking for a reliable and strong safe to protect their firearms. With its sleek design and impressive construction, this safe is truly the best bang for your buck. 🔗Top-Class Secure 5-Gun Storagehttps://preview.redd.it/xzn7r0xd4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=679c6afb1753c0a52dbd71ba25835e463cc5e8ad I've had the pleasure of using this gun safe in my home for quite some time now, and I must say, it's been a reliable companion. The first thing that stands out is the 3-directional bolt system. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my firearms are securely locked away. Plus, the high strength steel construction ensures durability, even in the face of potential wear and tear. One feature that I absolutely love is the soft foam pad at the bottom. Not only does it provide a cushioned resting place for my weapons, but it also helps maintain their condition over time. The holes for mounting to the wall and/or floor are another great addition. This gives me the flexibility to install the safe wherever I see fit, whether it's in my bedroom or living room. However, no product is perfect. There are some aspects of this gun safe that could be improved. For instance, the keyed access can be a bit cumbersome at times. While it does offer an added layer of security, it can also be a nuisance if you misplace the key. In conclusion, this affordable 5-gun safe from American Furniture Classics has been a worthwhile investment for me. Its robust construction and secure 3-directional bolt system make it an ideal choice for those looking to store their firearms safely and securely. While the keyed access may require some getting used to, the overall quality and performance of this product are well worth the cost. 🔗Affordable Gun Safe with Fingerprint & Digital Keypad Lockhttps://preview.redd.it/ohz3v76e4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6c89a53e034bef340b9a994600681a864c89034b I recently needed a gun safe for my firearms and I stumbled upon the VEVOR 6 Gun Safe. As a responsible gun owner, I always prioritize my gun's security. The VEVOR Gun Safe not only promised advanced security features but also boasted a durable construction. What stood out to me the most was the dual-lock system, both with a fingerprint and digital keypad. This feature ensures that only authorized individuals can access the safe, providing an added layer of protection. The dimensions of the safe were perfect for storing my firearms, fitting them perfectly without any issues. However, there was one downside: it was a bit heavier than I expected. At 82 lb, it required some effort to move around when needed. But overall, the VEVOR Gun Safe served its purpose by protecting my valuable firearms and my loved ones. I would highly recommend it to any gun owner looking for a reliable and secure storage solution. 🔗Heavy-Duty 5-Gun Metal Security Cabinethttps://preview.redd.it/b002w1ge4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7b0fbcb26344fd79965f02d9cd8eac11f1cb7f73 As a first-time gun owner, I was in the market for a small and affordable security cabinet. I came across the American Furniture Classics 5 Gun Starter Metal Security Cabinet and decided to give it a try. I must say, this cabinet has exceeded my expectations in terms of its 3-point locking system, which keeps my firearms safe and secure. The cabinet is made from high-quality black powder-coated paint, making it both attractive and durable. One of the standout features of this cabinet is its soft foam barrel rest and carpeted floor, which protects my long guns from scratches and damage. It's also fully assembled right out of the box, so I didn't have to worry about any confusing instructions nor spend hours putting it together. Additionally, it includes four expansion bolts to secure it to the floor, providing even more peace of mind. However, there are a few cons to consider. Some users have reported issues with the cabinet's build quality, stating that the metal seems thin and may not withstand a determined break-in attempt. Additionally, the cabinet's lock mechanism has been described as "flimsy" by some, leaving me slightly concerned about the overall security it provides. In conclusion, the American Furniture Classics 5 Gun Starter Metal Security Cabinet has become an essential part of my home, providing a secure and affordable storage solution for my long guns. While it may not be the most robust option on the market, it provides more than enough security for everyday use. 🔗Affordable Gun Safe with Dual Lock Security and Built-In Storagehttps://preview.redd.it/8zwoslxe4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=953c2adb6e894cbec464cf136a62514b6d267cd3 Imagine you're a serious gun owner who values both your firearms and the safety of your family. You've searched tirelessly for a reliable storage solution, but most are either too complicated or too expensive. That's where the VEVOR 6 Gun Safe comes in - a practical, stylish, and affordable option. Opening the safe, you're greeted by a spacious interior, with ample room for your rifles and pistols on the adjustable shelves. You appreciate the versatility, allowing you to customize the storage according to your needs. However, you also notice that shorter firearms fit perfectly, but longer ones might not find enough space unless you remove the pistol shelf. Securing the safe is a breeze. The dual-lock system, which includes both a fingerprint and digital keypad, provides both convenience and security. It makes you feel confident that your family and valuable firearms are well-protected. Making the VEVOR 6 Gun Safe even more appealing is its solid construction. The exterior has a sleek black finish that adds a touch of sophistication to your home. The wall thickness is sturdy at 0.04 inches. However, you notice that the metal used in the construction does not have a specific classification, which may leave some wondering about its durability. In conclusion, the VEVOR 6 Gun Safe is a worthy investment for those seeking an affordable, practical, and reliable firearm storage solution. Though it might not be perfect for everyone, its strengths outweigh the minor drawbacks, making it a satisfying addition to your home security. 🔗Winchester 26 Long Gun Safe - Secure and Spacious Storage for Your Firearmshttps://preview.redd.it/vlz2h5jf4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=61b6c3261b8ae2a45f8e324d6ca5ee7db5ac9a38 As a reviewer who has been using the Winchester 36 Long Gun Safe in my daily life, I can confidently say that this is a great investment for anyone looking to keep their firearms and valuables secure. The first thing that grabbed my attention was the sleek, powder-coated gun metal gray finish, which added a stylish touch to the safe while also enhancing its durability. One of the standout features of this gun safe was its electronic lock with an override key. Having both an electronic keypad and a backup key gives me peace of mind knowing that I won't be locked out in case of a power failure or if the electronic lock fails. The solid steel locking bolts provided robust security, ensuring that my firearms are kept safe and secure at all times. The interior of the safe was spacious enough to accommodate up to 26 long guns, making it an ideal choice for gun enthusiasts and collectors alike. Additionally, the adjustable shelves allowed me to customize the layout according to my needs, providing ample storage for other valuables as well. However, there were some cons worth mentioning. The door of the safe had a bit of play in it when closed and locked, which could be improved upon in future models. Furthermore, the instruction manual could have been more comprehensive, especially when it came to resetting the combo on the electronic lock. Overall, I would recommend the Winchester 36 Long Gun Safe to anyone looking for a reliable, well-made safe with ample storage and good security features. It may not be perfect, but at this price point, it's hard to beat. 🔗Wasatch 24 Gun Fire and Water Safe with Anti-Theft Electronic Lockhttps://preview.redd.it/jh3iue0g4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=36d65b68d6ef7b00359c9f30fff86da717771277 I recently had the opportunity to try out the Wasatch 24 Gun Fire and Water Safe with E-Lock 24EGW, and I must say, I was impressed. This fireproof and waterproof safe is perfect for gun enthusiasts who want to protect their precious belongings from potential damage. One of the most impressive features of this safe is its backlit electronic lock, which comes with an Alarm-U function. The alarm notifies you of any attempted theft, and the backup key provides an extra layer of security. I loved that it offered external hinges, allowing for a full 180-degree opening, making it effortless to access my safe. The interior door storage and 3-spoke handle design were another bonus that I found extremely useful. Additionally, the safe is equipped with 3 1.5-inch active locking bolts and 2 dead bolts that effectively deter any potential intruders. However, I did notice that the safe is quite heavy, which can make transportation difficult. The size of the box also seemed to be larger than originally estimated, which was a bit of a hassle. Overall, my experience with the Wasatch 24 Gun Fire and Water Safe with E-Lock 24EGW has been positive. I feel confident that my valuables are safely guarded, thanks to its impressive fire and water resistance capabilities. While there were a few minor drawbacks, they do not outweigh the fantastic features of this safe. 🔗Secure 3 Rifle Gun Cabinet with Digital Lockhttps://preview.redd.it/4aq91zng4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bcd2ac3ca2e89341c095d3031776004bd3b115ab Nestled within the realm of personal security, the VEVOR 3 Rifles Gun Safe has been an invaluable ally in safeguarding my collection of firearms. Its digital keypad and robust construction create an aura of safety, providing me with peace of mind. The quick access feature has proven incredibly useful, especially during those moments when every second counts. It's hard not to rave about its craftsmanship, a crucial aspect that never ceases to impress. The removable shelf, ammo storage box, and pistol rack make organization a hassle-free affair. However, one minor drawback - the locking mechanism could benefit from a more secure two-way system for enhanced security. Despite this, it's a reliable storage solution that ensures my loved ones remain protected from accidental access. 🔗Classic Solid Wood Gun Cabinethttps://preview.redd.it/76sz9m6h4j1d1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cc27ed8e36290b4186da3f9750d9eae0a5909930 As a firearm enthusiast who wanted a stylish and secure way to store my guns, I was excited to try out the American Furniture Classics 8 Gun Cabinet. I have to say, this piece of furniture definitely added an elegant touch to my living room, while keeping my guns locked away and out of reach from unwelcome hands. The first thing that caught my eye was the quality craftsmanship of the cabinet; it's made from solid wood and wood veneers, which gives it a rich, timeless finish. The careful design of the gun organizers ensures that each of my rifles are held steadily in place, with felt-lined butt plates and barrel rests preventing any potential scratches or scuffs. One feature that I particularly appreciated was the tempered glass front, allowing me to proudly display my collection while still keeping them safely behind a fully-locking key lock system. The capacity to store up to 8 long guns made it perfect for my collection, without taking up too much space in my home. However, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. The instructions were a bit cryptic, making the assembly process slightly more challenging than it needed to be. Additionally, the storage capacity is limited, so I wasn't able to fit as many scoped rifles/shotguns as I would have liked. Overall, the American Furniture Classics 8 Gun Cabinet has been a stylish and secure way to store and display my guns, bringing both elegance and practicality into my home.

2024.05.20 08:36 Prestigious_Newt_508 8 year old office laptop
 | This is a hand me down laptop I got from my dad since he got a new one and I use it for school and some gaming since I accidentally spilled water on my gaming laptop. submitted by Prestigious_Newt_508 to GamingLaptops [link] [comments] The specs are : Dell Inspiron 5570 Intel i5 8250u @1.6GHz (3.6GHz Max) Intel UHD 620 Graphics 16GB DDR4 RAM @2400MHz(Dual Channel) 256GB SATA SSD 15.6” 1080p IPS Display (45% NTSC) With a bunch of patience, this honestly works very well and lasts about 6 hours on a full charge. I have underpowered the CPU to only run at its 65% speed when on battery power from the power plan settings, so it does hitch a little here and there but it works great for the work I do on it. Tho, gaming is a nightmare on this thing. I have tried millions of optimisation techniques from YouTube videos and nothing seems to work. I usually play Valorant and even that struggles to run at a constant 60FPS now. I 16GB RAM and another 16GB of paging storage from my SSD. I play valorant on the lowest possible settings with 80% resolution scale (I changed it in the config files) at 1024x768. Is there any way I can get good FPS? The whole package maxes out at about 30W I believe. 25W max on the CPU side and I have no idea about the GPU Wattage but it’s not great either. I just wanna run low end multiplayer games like valorant and League of Legends at a constant 60FPS. Thank you. |

Map: Jerusalem 1: Brain Surgery Modifiers: Comfort Zone, Revenge, Instadeath
General Advice:
edit: spelling
submitted by k2r727 to WWZSurvivalGuide [link] [comments]
General Advice:
- Stick with your team as much as possible, only separate for brief moments to speed up looting and defense placement. If your team plans on separating, pair up.
- Be aware of where your teammates are. Since you and your team will be together a lot, friendly fire is more likely, be careful of this.
- When defending the house, don't bother protecting the 1st floor. It has too many entry points and your team will be forced to spread out to cover all spots. It's safer to protect the 2nd floor, Kill incoming zeke by the stairs leading to the 2nd floor and the balcony walk way. This greatly reduces becoming separate and it narrows down the areas you have to look out for.
- When collecting the briefcases, just stick together as a team. splitting up to save time isn't worth the higher risk of getting wiped.
- If possible, have at least 1 member bring a chainsaw. In a pinch, it helps clear the swarm and make space for the team. It also has no friendly fire damage. do note, It's not very effective against Juggernauts.
- Medic with healing cloud(perk: Breath deeply) is highly recommended. since the entire team should be staying together, you will often give the entire team temporary health for just 1 stim use. The temporary extra health can also help stave off the health drain if one of your team members absolutely needs to separate from the group for a short time.
- Ammo Fixer is very powerful here. They can help the entire team clear special zombies much faster, help the team defend the 2nd floor even more if the ammo crate doesn't spawn on the 2nd floor, heal the entire team(perk: 3-in-1), reduce the number of times your teammates have to return to the ammo box, and help clear the zeke towers during the Helicopter defense section. Don't be afraid to remind your team to keep using your ammo boxes. Fixers make the entire team stronger.
- Vanguard can be very useful here. Since your entire team will be grouped up together a lot, Juggernauts WILL become a problem unless killed quickly. Vanguards can easily stand in front of Juggernauts and Bulls to stop them. This helps your team 2-fold: a Jugg or Bull standing still, is a target MUCH easier to shoot. and this reduces the chances for your team to have to spread out. your shield also gives you innate 100% resistance from friendly fire and forcing zeke to target you(perk: Center of Attention) will give your team more breathing room. your job is to give your team lots of space
- Hellraiser can be strong here. they can often 1-2 shot specials with their MGL and can quickly destroy the zeke pyramids. if they have the grenade launcher with the incendiary perk, they can easily hold either the balcony section or stairs section of the house by themselves. Their C4 can also help peel away(perk: Here Kitty) some zeke if your team is getting surrounded. Just be aware of the blast area of your skills and weapons, or else your dead teammates might just blow you and your team up.
- Dronemaster can be very useful here. Sharing their drone(perk: Sharing is caring), they can greatly reduce the amount of friendly fire incidents(perk: Not on my watch). They can also help the team be aware of special Zeke nearby(perk: Eye in the Sky) their BF25(perk: the Big Five O) can also 1 shot Juggernauts and Bulls. I recommend sticking to the stun drone. having 2 drones in close proximity almost guarantees that if zeke manage to get close to you or your team will immediately get stunned.
