If you do design another one, here's an interesting technique I saw on a random YouTube video:
Make an enclosure that fits together so that the walls have a cavity between them you can fill with a combination of plaster of Paris and pvc glue.
This, combined with separate chambers for tweeters/woofers/subs/etc and a little thought for how the sound exits the enclosure, and you've got a top tier miniature sound system for a fraction of the cost. Although it will be a little bulkier, a little heavier, and takes more time to design, if you want to take another step up from what looks to me like a pretty good first one. Honestly given the 3d printed enclosure I expected all kinds of distortions and noise, but you clearly did quite well. So please don't for a second think I'm trying to say "uhh this way is better" it's just a different way, and one that could be better or worse for many many reasons.
Its a chilling concept, for sure but I don't think anyone could truly understand how much someone would be begging for death by the time they pulled out their phone, let alone finished typing.
By the time anyone did or worse yet by the time it wore off, there would be nothing left of the person from the day before.
Like damn that would be the one time I wish I had a concealed carry weapon. If there is a deity that abhors such things, I think they'd understand the mitigating circumstances. If not, then it's not a deity I'd like to spend another eternity with.
I straight up told a coworker he's a "fucking dumbass piece of shit" if he thinks anyone is somehow still running on 2-3 checks of $1000 three years later, because either he's too stupid to realize that's only one week of pay for him or he has an ulterior motive for continuing to lie about something he knows isn't true. So which is it, dumb or lying, because we both know that's bullshit.
He stood there for a second staring at me and goes "yeah I suppose that's not THAT much..."
Of course absolutely nothing about his other right-wing bs changed but at least he hasn't brought up "pandemic money" again.
This particular house was on a decent sized hill in the middle of a large flat area. I think the sea would have to rise 750ft or the closest river would have to flood half a state for it to flood their house. It wouldn't work in my area either. I live in a large valley.
It definitely requires tons of money to do. I wonder if they've made back the difference in savings yet?
People really underestimate what a couple trees can do when strategically placed. Or how drastic the temperature difference can be between flat lawn and cops of trees. They're giant cellulose and lignen heat sinks.
Honestly a 40k fine for me might as well be life-ending. Possibly self-inflicted, depending on my mental state at the time.
Community service makes much more sense.
I'd make him do like 5 hours of CS for every year since the archeology site was inhabited, and 200 hours for every offence. The older the site, the more you have to work off. The more you deface, the more you work off.
I mean, those are just random numbers I pulled out of my ass but you get the idea.
Give me 750ft^2 and 5 acres of woods with enough sunny space for growing some food.
I'd be thrilled.
My wife's best friend, however, has decided their 3500ft^2 2.5 floor + basement house on 3-4 acres with two sheds and a small barn (or xl shed?) isnt enough space for 2 dogs 3 cats and her and her husband.
One of my friends grew up in a house his dad's company built.
It has a super tiny, almost bungalow-sized building on the surface that's basically a glorified sitting room for entertaining a few guests, and one bedroom.
Then behind door #2 is a staircase leading to the actual house, mostly underground.
If you look behind the fence that surrounds what appears to be a back yard, it's about 3ft of roof sticking out of the ground.
I'm not an architect or engineer, so I just assumed there were technical reasons he didn't want the house completely underground, cause that seems to me like it would be better to have it completely buried if you're going for energy efficiency and things like that. Although now that I say that, I imagine you'd want some natural lighting. Maybe a good compromise? No idea.
Too bad we lost touch, because I'd love to ask his dad more questions about how it was designed and built. I remember the few times I was there it was always cool, but never cold in winter and never hot in summer.
Gang wars were my jam while playing WD2. Cruising around the block scanning people for botnet recharges, and calling in reinforcements every time one side gets wiped out.... Good times.
Very nice! I just picked up watch dogs and watch dogs 2 deluxe editions as a bundle for like $13 after tax.
I'm even eyeing the rdr2 sale on epic right nowcfor under 25.
There are so many good options that don't look dated at all to me.
Honestly, crysis looked amazing on my 10 year old laptop. I kind of want to replay them again on my new one to see how much better everything looks on ultra.
