full disclosure: I am a counselor in their directory

I have an outdoor wok burner for this reason. It was about $130, runs on a propane tank, and works amazingly well. The price has gone up a bit since and probably will go up considerably more with tariff bullshit but highly recommend

It’s also called a powerflamer, which I find quite comical. I just looked it up and the base model is $150 now, so not that much more. The website looks sketch but the guy is legit. Outdoorstirfry.com. Takes awhile to ship because I’m pretty sure it’s literally just one guy running the whole thing.

The legs are sketchy as fuck. I got an old aluminum prep table off Craigslist and cut a hole in it with a dremel. Much sturdier, can put the tank and stuff on the bottom, and I put a charcoal grill and a flat top on it too. Now I can do robata too. I cook outside more than inside.

also garfeild

wait is that the odie recliner to the left?? Is this a shot from the cleanup of that sketch?? Is this the couch

If you did this when you came back it would be the objectively better half. More filling density at the expense of being harder to store

aww that’s cute. Back to your dank cage

I figured it was something like this, wok burner is about BTU to a degree but also about flame spread. If you have a very high BTU burner with the wrong flame spread it wound work as well as a decently lower BTU burner with a flame spread like what’s pictured. It’s why using a wok on a traditional western gas burner sucks

Sure thing

FWIW I am in America, if that helps. And for America I found it helps immensely to be in a city. Which is obvious, probably. But since I moved to a less urban area I’m a few hours from the nearest recycler and the closest one never has anything good; whereas the one by me in the city was a 20m drive and always had great shit from various offices shutting down throughout the city and places from basically a 1-2hr drive radius. They would make the drive to clear out a building of gear

Sometimes you can find them on ebay but usually the thing that wrecks ebay deals is shipping. A switch for $40 isn’t as much of a deal if it costs $60 to ship to you because it’s gigantic and weighs 30lbs

If you use ebay sort by distance instead price and look for deals.

The best thing though is to find actual recyclers in your area. Look on ebay sorted by distance, look on Craigslist, etc. I don’t fuck with meta shit but fb marketplace is maybe somewhere to look? If you can find a recycler near you that sells direct to consumers (not all do) then hit them up.

Especially if they’re a small business (that’s one of the things corporate overlords haven’t overtaken in my experience), you might find being a repeat customer is helpful to you. I bought most of my networking stack from them but I also got a bunch of stuff to refurbish and resell. They also refurbish and resell but they didn’t do board repairs, just simple shit like lcd and battery swaps. Anything more wasn’t worth their time to diagnose and repair. So I would come and buy their pile of consoles and phones and weird industrial equipment that needed board work, water damage, etc. I could usually fix 6/10 and resell which is probably good for the world and certainly helped my wallet.

But it also meant they threw me mad deals. I have a tape drive for backing up my nas. It’s like a $3,000 LTO8 drive (new) that wasn’t working and they sold it to me for $200 with a bunch of other stuff I was buying. I fixed it by cleaning it and now I have a practical way to back up hundreds of terabytes

Even if you’re not buying up tons of shit like that though just being a repeat customer can be helpful. Of course this assumes you find a good vendor. Some I went to prices were firm even though it was some busted old switch from 10 years ago I could get cheaper online with shipping and they wouldn’t budge. And this was a while ago (like 4 years), I’ve since moved and don’t do business with them anymore. Who knows what the market is like now. I feel like the used market may be surging a bit with tariff nonsense

come to my house, i look like shit

I haven’t had calamari in like 16 years and I love that shit, bring it on

Suppress

shit load securing, good luck everyone behind! I want to play big strong truck man

vanity trucks are so dumb. we bought a truck when we got our house because we live in a less populated area that’s hard to get to and we had to do a decent amount of renovations. we found a 25 year old dodge with low miles for 3k. Runs fine, super easy to work on. It’s the smaller truck they made but still has the 8ft bed. They stopped doing the 8ft bed altogether after 2000 on the small truck. Even for big trucks like ram and f150 the 8ft bed is a special order thing since ages ago, you generally won’t see them on lots and used they can command a decent price because they’re pretty uncommon

It’s so fucking stupid that stupid assholes made the most impractical vehicle part of their ego and as a result made it overall worse. Like I can just load a 4x8 sheet in my bed and close the gate dipshit. I also spent an entire house less than you. Still has carplay too thanks to a $30 cheapass head unit from aliexpress. Also mines not associated with white nationalism and when we finish our renovation we can probably sell it for a small profit or at least what we paid, unless we spend like 5 years doing work. Even if we don’t, 23ish days of renting home depot trucks and we come out ahead (except not really because insurance and maintenance but you get the point). I didn’t pay the price of a condo in a low cost of living area for the fucking thing

I was considering purchase a Japanese switch 2 because my Japanese is decent enough for most gaming but then I saw it was region locked pretty hard so I can’t use any of my us e shop purchases. Plus fuck Nintendo, even without the tariffs the price on this thing is a bit much and their behavior is garbage

If I ever do get one it’ll be because someone broke theirs and I got it cheap as fuck and fixed it. That’s how I got my switch, had a busted battery management IC and a fucked usb C port. I think in total I paid like $90 for it with parts. It would also help if the console was exploited for piracy

There’s a supposed message from one of the admins promising it will return

If it does come back it will likely take ages given much of the 20 year old hacked together source leaked. If they simply relaunched as is it would likely go down again in minutes

Right? I miss fun logos. I get everyone wants to shit on ai but minimalist logos are booooooring

That sounds fun. Looking at the picture again I feel like over time eventually the stress of opening and closing the panel would weaken something at least. Although tbf maybe it’s rarely opened

it’s clean and orderly now but when a wire breaks in the middle of that loom and needs a bodge repair that thing ends up looking fucked

And maybe you have to be a landowner too
