Figma balls

What's figma?

For my parents, it meant putting up with me installing viruses as I tried to figure out how to play Minecraft free.

This. Physical media is awesome to own, and ripping extremely high-quality copies is actually pretty easy, just time-consuming.

I recommend EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It's free and there are some awesome guides online for setting it to get the best quality for your rips.

"Buy once cry once" seems to apply very well to wire cutters. (Link is to a YouTube video about how terrible most wire cutters actually are)

At least in the United States, most schools are not a place of privacy as the schools have a certain right to authority over their pupils. Consider Tinker v. Des Moines and what it meant for freedom of speech in schools. That case won students the right to freedom of expression. It's important, but in certain cases it becomes limited by Morse v. Frederick, a case that ultimately meant that such expression must not disrupt the learning environment. All of this is to say that students have certain freedoms until expressing those freedoms is disruptive to the learning experience, and I don't think there's any solid argument that would not consider vaping disruptive to the learning environment. Considering this as an invasion of privacy is a moot point when you consider that students don't really have the same rights as adults, especially in public school situations.

This is the video that convinced me to get NextDNS and I don't regret having made that decision

I originally came from Olights, I was a big fan of them. I never understood how people could complain about them until I finally had a flashlight with great CRI and tint. Also, the fact that these things use Anduril is incredible. After learning how to use Anduril 2.0, I hardly want to use any other flashlight!

Needless to say, I'm done with Olight. I'm actually looking to sell them away lol

The expensive one is the white-ish one all the way on the left! That one is made of titanium (with the exception of the copper head). All the other lights are made of aluminum. Also, the cerakote coating is special because it changes color with heat! At rest it's a dark navy blue, but as it gets warmer it turns into the greyish white you see in the picture :)

The special thing about each of these lights is that they're almost semi-custom made, you get to pick certain things such as the color and material of the body, the actual length of the battery tube for different types of cells, and most specifically the type of LED that gets put inside. They also use an open-source and insanely complicated user interface called Anduril 2.0.

The fancy colors you see the lights putting out in the image are just auxiliary LEDs that look pretty. You can change what color they're producing or even have em do a little light show if you set them to do that.

There's one guy who actually makes them, his name is Hank Wang. You can find his store at intl-outdoor.com. Considering the amount of customization that goes into these lights and the quality of the LEDs themselves, the value of them is actually rather amazing.

In this image you can see how the beams vary in color temperature across these lights.

$95 on a flashlight and then $50 to have it done with custom cerakote. To be fair, it's a badass flashlight. Consequently, that led to the purchase of a few other flashlights with similar features but much cheaper and without the custom coatings.

See the attached image for more details and feel free to ask me any questions :P

You're already using Amazon and Epic games, I feel like there's very little they can share with each other that they don't already know.

I've not got the knowhow to do that. I'm also not in charge of the family router so I haven't got the permissions to really manage my own server anyway. Someday I'll have my own place and I'll probably put something together but I'm pretty satisfied with Keepass :)
