Ameriglo CAP night sights for my Glock 19 in orange. I didn't get a Glock front sight tool so installing this will be... Interesting. When I do get them installed I plan on practicing low-light shooting drills.

This just came in the other day:


Asus VG248QE 24" 144 Hz monitor. I got it because it had great reviews and some of the lowest latency of any display in most reviews. I went in doubting that the 144 Hz mode would even be noticeable, but holy poo poo it's so much smoother.

When I first hooked it up I played a few games, tested a few things and was really happy with the display: lack of ghosting, brightness, color, and all that stuff, but I was kind of disappointed that it didn't look any smoother than a regular LCD. Then I realized it defaulted to 60 Hz mode. I switched it to 144 and even simple things like moving the mouse around the screen were hypnotizing they looked so smooth. Obviously it won't benefit all games, but in things like TF2 where I can get a solid 90 FPS, the difference is stunning. Couldn't be happier with my purchase.


holy poo poo I had no idea since I have the exact same monitor. I also just learned that it doesn't support the faster refresh over HDMI. I need to find that cable now.

Follow up post: my Cloven Hoof pedal arrived. I'm gonna make my neighbors hate me. It's so good. They're going to be making it in a non limited edition soon, anyone who likes guitar fuzz should take a look - with lots of the Fuzz knob and the tone on the trebly side it gets nasty and weird and artifact-y. On the low side of the dial it's very practical too.

My dentist uses these in his entire office, one per room. He has them hooked up to his itunes/spotify so while hes working on you he will play any kind of music you want, it makes the experience overall pretty amazing/soothing rather than the normal dentist experience where you want to claw your eyes out. They work really well in that role or in any similar nice/relatively quiet background mood music. Good purchase.

If you find yourself in a social situation, make threats.

You have to have one part of your Sonos system physically connected to a router, but that can be a Play: 1 as well.

Just rented and watched this last night. I was surprised it was 2.5 hours long. A very smart purchase. It also has the standard 5 minute fight with one bad guy who has apparently taken all of the PCP in the country! Incredible scenes all around. I couldn't have spent $3 better.

If you mean like plotwise, no. The second one kinda throws the plot from the first one out the window in the first couple minutes.

Doesn't really matter. This is true:

but the second one doesn't really re-use anything from the first one except the main character, the actor who played Mad Dog in the first one playing a completely different role in the second one, and batshit insane fight choreography/cinematography.

I didn't see anyone else post this one, but I ordered the Hyperkin 5 last year and finally got it like a month ago. For a hunk of plastic it plays a lot of games with the ability to save them anytime you want to the system or an SD card.



I wouldn't buy it yet until it drops down back to it's regular price or at least hopefully it drops back down. It is thought totally worth a purchase if you have a lot of Sega, NES, SNES, GB games, etc. The controller isn't very good (even if Bluetooth) so other controllers would be a nice plus if you have them.

My friend (and follow goon) bought this for me as a gift:



So far I've played it in a 6 person group and it was fun. A bit like CAH, but still different enough that they are both nice options to play with a large group.

I'd love to have a Retron5 on my tv, but at this point I have sold so many of my old NES and SNES games that it just doesn't make sense to not have an HTPC running an emulator/Steam Big Picture running Ice.

Having said that, I will probably get one of those at some point when I move to my next place for the dozen or so carts I still have because they're my favorite games anyway.

I've always wanted these driving gloves, but I think people would laugh seeing me rock them in my Honda Insight. My next car should warrant using these. Especially with a metal shift knob and 115 degree days in southern Nevada.

So I got the bicycle equivalent of a 100,000 mile tuneup. They thoroughly take it apart, and everything gets soaked and blasted with cleaning solution, then it's re-assembled, parts are greased, drivetrain is re-adjusted, the wheel's trued, new brake and shifting cables and housing, brake pads, new tires, new chain, and new grip tape. Some of these things I could do on my own, but it all comes in one nifty package. My LBS always hooks me up, so they deserve the business.


I don't know dick about wine, but i'm trying this inexpensive bottle, to go with some cheese and crackers.

The requirement of having a bridge (or any Sonos component) plugged into your router will most likely be dropped shortly.

Sonos is already testing a wifi only setup.

They are the v2's I think. I'm coming from vibrams so they don't really bother me at all. Then again I don't run because it causes flare ups in my knees 100% of the time.

See the second condition. Once I get into the 1.5xBW range for my squats and deads I'll get some Romaleos or something.

Edit: They are infact v3s.
