lllllllllllllllllll posted:redbubble.com trip report: Took over two weeks to ship from different European vendor's to Germany (Swiss, Finland and a third country actually). Shirts are flimsy with a not-so-high quality print. They smelled awful (but maybe that's normal, I don't know) and the cotton does not feel very nice. Stickers all have a white border (that was expected though) and are okay. Black is a dark grey though and there's lots of dithering. The one cup I ordered was fine. Nice blacks and nice print, if you can call it that. All in all it was not awful, but I am not excited about them either. Certainly not better than the next cornerstone printshop. QC on red bubble stuff is whack. I ordered a bunch of posters and they were artifacted to hell. Some of them print on the correct side of poster paper but the image was only like 1/3 of the thing. RB replaced them with prints from other folks, but if nobody's even glancing at these things before they go out the door, I'll find someone else to print them.

Nice. Last year I lucked into this huge Star Wars collection which I sold off like 4 pieces to pay for itself, but lately I've been wanting to beef it up so I can just make a whole Hoth battle scene. I was looking at stuff on ebay and craigslist, and realized this guy who deals in nothing but star wars lives like 5 minutes from me. Met up with him Saturday to trade him some stuff I didn't want (Slave I and some loose accessories) and some money for a hoth playset, a tauntaun, the micro Hoth ion cannon playset, one figure and the ewok village. A good trade but it's a pretty silly hobby that I hope I'm able to cut off soon.

My new toy just arrived! Daiwa sv103xl casting reel. It plams so much better then the reel I am replacing it with. I see why people freaked out when then discontinued them.

Thanks, PB. Ugh, gently caress the Canadian dollar. With shipping and conversion that's $1800... $500 more than I just blew on computer parts :/

^^Check out Moosejaw and Backcountry, they've got these on sale at the momentRolo posted:I've been looking at exactly this. Please report after you actually use it a few times. Will do! I decided to pull the trigger because it's 20% off with free shipping right now at backcountry.com, which is approaching the used prices I see them selling for when they occasionally pop up on ebay bongwizzard posted:That looks like a death trap, but have fun! It might be, but at least it'll be fun! They've actually got some great videos with people wailing on them with hammers to no effect, dropping them off several story buildings, and using the hull material as the hinge for a swing in their office, all without incident. They're supposed to be rated to 20,000 folds, and this one is the third iteration, with improved buckles and seat, which appear to be the biggest complaints of the earliest ones. Some padding magazine passed one around their staff writers for a year with the only issue being the buckles, so I figure I should be safe with my rate of usage. It's made out of that same corrugated plastic that mail tubs are made out of, and I've seen those things receive ungodly amounts of abuse so that's pretty reassuring.

I mean there was this guy with wings made of feathers and wax talking the same way about his new toy, he doesn't post much anymore for some reason. It does look easier to patch in the field then an inflatable, but still freaks me out. I like my tiny boats thick as gently caress and full of semi-sealed air chambers.

FWIW, I've always had good experiences ordering stuff from Redbubble in  Maybe they have different printing facilities or something? The shirts I get (black unisex t-shirt) are super comfortable and hold up to being washed just fine. Print quality is good on the shirts and the stickers and art prints I've ordered in the past have all looked great. I don't think the stickers all had white borders either.

A cd copy of the reissued Adore album by the Smashing Pumpkins, with autorip option from Amazon Prime. I got a nice surprise. I ordered the single disc copy for $16 and change expecting the license to just the one disc album on Amazon music, and was given the license for the 6 disc super deluxe version, which, if bought by itself, would have been 34 bucks.

Got this white noise machine because my neighbor is a white trash piece of poo poo who runs a gasoline powered generator 24/7. The brand is LectroFan, and they are $40-50 in the US.

I dumpster dived a laptop with 64 bits of raw country power, and I just attended a Microsoft talk at a conference about some hilarious interop Linux poo poo they put into Win10 Creators Update, so I did something really weird and paid for an operating system. I'm also probably going to play a poo poo ton of Factorio on it.
