    Freeze dryers

    Well, if you call support and can’t reach them, denying would be difficult.

    .22 LR, yes. Larger caliber, shoot until it glows.

    Freeze dryers

    Freeze dry a few family size bags of Skittles. Trust me. Epic. Freeze dried gummy bears are a trip. They puff up and turn to crispy foam with great flavor, but on the 3rd chew they magically become like 2-part epoxy and you have to talk through welded teeth for 10 minutes.

    Me too! I'm up to my nipples in $1/dz eggs and $.97/lb strawberries, and my venison stew will now outlive me!

    Freeze dryers

    One friend said his unit completed 3 cycles and then died. Impossible to reach support (no email response, no phone answer, voicemail full,) and then was offered a used unit in exchange. He returned the unit. Another acquaintance had the vacuum pump fail within a month and was unable to get any...

    Freeze dryers

    Look at recent reviews. Our older Harvest Right works great. Several folks who bought recently based on my recommendation have had issues. When the units work correctly they produce much healthier freeze dried meal options than commercial offerings. Maintenance on the older vacuum pumps takes...

    Any Watch Nerds to point me?

    Thanks. I'm pretty sure dad only wore it with his tux, and on those occasions knowing where the bar is was more important than knowing what time it is. 😄

    Any Watch Nerds to point me?

    I mis-spoke. It doesn't go out often, but the Museum is actually a Caliber 625 manual wind. Inherited from my dad, it's a fairly rare design from the 1970s, licensed from Movado.

    Any Watch Nerds to point me?

    I don’t notice a change in accuracy, but I do notice the reserve dropping. When it falls below 24 hours or so I take them in. Seamaster, Speedmaster, Railmaster, Constellation, and deVille automatics. The Omega Museum watch is an old quartz.

    Any Watch Nerds to point me?

    Tune-up service on the Omega Seamaster (which I push to every 4 or 5 years) is now $500-$700. Just keep that in mind for budget purposes.

    Any Watch Nerds to point me?

    Do you want a watch that needs batteries, or one that is powered by your movement or solar energy? Quartz movements can be very accurate, but most need a battery changed every year or 2. Automatic (self-winding) movements can be almost as accurate, but need cleaning and lubrication more often...

    The Rokslide Stock Traders Thread

    I think it depends on how many of the RSX components get delisted. Could be a liquidity crunch.

    Covid got me good

    Did you really look at that meme and think I'm that simple? Can you not realize that watching someone rant ad nauseum with arms flailing and spittle flying (unless wearing a mask, of course) provides a perfect opportunity for light-hearted sarcasm? Humor, even in the face of tragedy, can be...

    Covid got me good

    My grandfather worked with a lot of asbestos in the shipyard. The data said it was safe. My mom used to dust us all liberally with baby powder. The data said it was safe. I sprayed a metric crap-ton of Roundup on the ranch. The data said it was safe. Until it wasn't. Opah - keep fighting! Hope...

    I think what he's saying is that we've officially lost our Marbles.

    The AT&T plans for the Spartans are $75/yr. That’s for 4gig and you’ll never hit that sending the thumbnails. You’ll also need the premium credits for a few bucks a month unless you want to bypass the Spartan app.
