What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

Yeah - you really need industrial steel dolly's w/nylon or similar casters. Those fiberglass dolly's w/pneumatic tires at home depot are so shiny and advertise huge weight...they're just terrible. I learned my lesson...twice. They are just terrible / cheap. I'm back to a beat up, ugly, orange painted but all black marred beast from the 70's. It's ugly as all get out - but it'll haul anything.

Bah, get a rocknroller:

My R10 has carried numerous cabs, thousands of light kits, and recently a lot of lumber. It can hold 40 2x4s without much issue, or 21 portable projector screens. It is rated for 500lbs, but I have carried almost 1000lbs on it. Best of all it folds flat enough to fit in an average sedan's trunk. I have checked mine on for flights, taken it to countless conventions, and used it as a third man when cutting on the table saw... Recently it was used to transport my MST3k bots to Seishuncon.

If you plan on using it on grass, get an R12. The bigger wheels are worth the price uptick.

I have a huge old industrial dolly I snagged from my workplace a couple years back. It rules.

I also have some of those cheapo Home Depot ones..... I mainly use them to transport and store whatever is acquired from my epic Sam's Club trips.

I think I'm the only person in the state of North Carolina who didn't give a shit about the Super Bowl. I was busy playing Megadimension Neptunia.

Now there are two of us! I recently moved to North Carolina and I haven't watched a Super Bowl in at least 15 years.

Speaking of North Carolina, I didn't think it was possible for me to hate an ISP more than Windstream but the local ISP, Frontier, has usurped their position. I've been here about 2 months and I still don't have internet. After many many phone calls, I found out last week that there are no more DSL ports available in my area. According to them, I'd have to wait until someone cancelled their service in order to get internet access. However, they called me on Sunday and offered me a 1MB connection...wtf.

There only other options are satellite, mobile hotspot, or the local power company's fiber optic internet service. The power company's fiber is 1.5 miles away from my house and I am praying that they will run it out to me. Otherwise I am looking at shitty bandwidth and data caps.

Damn, yo. I bitch about Time Warner a lot, but at least I've got a nice 200 Mbps connection. To what part of the state did you move, if you don't mind my asking?

Have you looked for any WISP companies in the area? They're getting a lot more popular in TX.

My parents live in a rural area, I got them set up on WISP. They get 18 mbps down & it's steady enough to stream Amazon prime & Sling TV. No datacaps.

Western NC. I'm about a 15 minute drive from GA.

Yeah I've looked into all the options for the area. Fiber optic is best if you can get it. All my neighbors have Frontier DSL (6-12MB). Verizon's 4G is pretty strong at my house. I can get around 15MB from that but the data caps are awful. I've done a lot of Googling to see if anyone is offering 4G internet access with unlimited data in my area but I haven't found anything that isn't super sketchy.

My parents have a WISP too, it works pretty good overall. I'm hoping when I get out of college wherever I end up will at least have that.

You rat bastard.

I'm mostly wondering what the chain of events are. It's most likely that I only found it because I live in the same general area as the Author.

I've only read the ones with Admiral Thrawn, but those were pretty boss.

Frown: Have to have someone out to check for a water leak in the system at my house. $350 to start. Ouch. The previous owner's of the house put in an irrigation system, that I've never used and it's probably the culprit, but I have no idea for sure.

move the 36" wega.

Is the Wega your primary TV? I'm now even, 2 LCDs & 2 CRTs .

My neighbor was just over & was surprised how good the picture looked on my "new" (to me) 27" CRT in the garage. I explained to him how CRTs handle blacks & multiple resolutions well (vs upscaling).

Primary gaming TV, still yes. Primary primary, no.

But the day grows closer that framemeister will win the war.
