2024.05.14 15:45 big_white_fishie Storylines that need to happen;

Nish comes back and grooms Nugget into a woman hating incel. Starts poisoning his mind, telling him that all women are evil etc. Nugget starts abusing all those girls from the party online with a fake account, lures one of them out and tries to attack her. But he’s a skinny wee lad, so they get the upper hand.
Sonia gets so fed up of Reiss she starts slowly poisoning him. During this time Bex comes back and asks her mum what the fuck she’s doing with a man like Reiss. This solidifies Sonia’s plan to poison him. Her and coma wife (who wakes up) run off together to raise the baby, while Reiss is in a coma. OR Sonia and Reiss discover it’s not Reiss’ baby - she was given the wrong sperm (not gonna lie, I didn’t pay much attention. I know they went through IVF but did she get inseminated? Idk). Coma wife wakes up and kidnaps the baby. Sonia gets the baby back, but then Britney comes back, is back to her thieving ways, and nicks the baby. She suddenly goes blind and can’t find where she left the baby.
Elaine gets so fed up of Cindy that she challenges her to a charity boxing match. Elaine wins.
Max comes back, Stacey gets pregnant with his baby.
Penny takes part in a roller wheeler derby.
Denzel discovers he’s not even taking steroids, and it’s just a placebo. He groves for Amy to take him back, she tells him no.
Linda and Junior get together. Turns out he and his wife are into polyamory. But…Bianca is pregnant with his baby!
Jack gets fat (due to all the take aways)
Chelsea kills the pastor (something I genuinely want to happen) after discovering what happened.
PAT COMES BACK. We retcon her death.
Zoe comes back. It’s been enough time where we can recast her. Kat has actually forgotten she exists, and it’s super awkward. Phil gets her pregnant just by shaking her hand (he has super sperm)
Kat and Alfie DON’T get together. They manage to have a lovely, healthy friendship.
Anymore that needs to happen?

2024.05.14 04:11 Familiar_Palpitation What have I done now???!!

What have I done now???!!
I found my decade old stash of Pinewood Derby dry transfer graphics and figured why not. The rocks will scrape them away slowly over time so they will get a neat patina eventually. If I really don't like them, some warm water and a bit of rubbing will get them off.

2024.05.13 22:29 goodnewsjimdotcom GAME RELEASE! Starfighter General first official lasting MMO patch. Space is boring, so you must design around making it fun, and all good mmos now are designed around end game.

A video of some random game play: https://youtu.be/EK2xB3xCFjQ

If you want to jump in and play: https://store.steampowered.com/app/658480/Starfighter_General/

I'm trying to make the spiritual successor to Xwing for 90s DOS everyone craved, but Lucas Arts never delivered. I was also inspired by Wing Commander Privateer who's title led me to imagining building a giant fleet by buying more and more ships and making friends.
It has a bunch of bugs but these will be fixed in a week or two. It's still pretty fun and a base by which a HUGE HUGE potential WOW killer will be made on. fairly long patch notes of a subset of what I plan on doing in the future are at the bottom.

My take Diablo2 skill tree/Path of Exile Talent tree: https://youtu.be/E8h9E4lw2jk?si=LVK8hQOtWez6Riwy&t=16 Very pretty to watch.

I'm exhausted... I spent close to a year on this patch... And the last 3 months was nothing but sleep, code, sleep, code, body necessities, balanced against being stress sick, normal sick, and trying not to break down due to being isolated non stop working... About 2000 hours in this patch alone, on top of 10,000 hours in the past 6 years before that, and I use an anthology of game resources that took me 20,000 hours to make. There's some bugs due to Unity compiling standalone improper from editor, but they'll be fixed, as well as the story line not in... It's a spoiler, but people say my SCI FI is better than any scifi man's ever written, it's at least good:

Cut scene spoiler of next patch assemble link by hand:

rum ble.com /v4tf892-spoiler-female-ai-voice-all-of-starfighter-general-mmo-patch-1-quests.html

-> What's next timelinie

NOTES:COMING SOON, AND FORECAST->Story missions non stop, techs around em, story's awesome!

Future Patches ->Non Stop Missions in Star System Sol until that story arc panned out and the next enters.
->Bounty System:Allows Player vs Player... Except people who don't want to be doing PVP will get insurance refund money of damages if/when the offending player pays up or gets captured as Bounty.
->70,000ish star stystems per core, 24 cores to dive.
->Warp drive lets you see actual stars warp by you that exist, aim for the star you want to explore, hit warp.
->Space Opera of partially Ai driven, partially Next Gen personality Memento system to have realistic aliens who grudge match you or befriend you.
->Unlimited player MMO
->Fleet building and Fleet Destroying, soft perma death hardcore means its a thrill of the rise and thrill of fall, rinse and repeat! Aim for higher personal bests of fleet sizes
-> Star System capture, control, taxing, law imposing. People can challenge to take over your star in an 2 hour window where your friends are on... If they're not on, AI will use their craft. So build big alleginances for star control power.
->Better UI hull/shields/armoetc such as NES style Brick Icons for stats ->Transfer between shields/thrusteweapons power
->more sanity loss special effects
->Radar
->Better targetting
->Multi Targetting of friend/foe/neutral/quest...
->Fleet General Commands to allies of flight style: ie defend me, skirmish(fight optimally), attack target, bomb target, evasive manuevars, flee(rout) ta
->Weapon escalation: I) rockets/homing missile/cluster rockets, rocket spam mitigated by chaff, ECM, or a bold force shield ejection II) Lasers will always hit, and heat up your ship, so you're encouraged to rotate your ship's sides to absorb heat in multiple places. III) Bombs you need to travel in a straight line without much damage for 7 seconds ->very long range for shelling bases out of turret range IV) Rail Gun V) Destroyers/Capital Ships VI)
->Bounty Combat PVP system
->Magic enabled
->Cockpit overlays
->Custom Attribute Allocation to stats you prefer from leveling up.
->96 most bilious bosses
->More Galactic News Network tickers
->Enable reduction in manueverability based on encumberance, volume limit of cargo

->Favorite foods, drink, sanity preservation
->Elaborate 16 supernatural elemental magic systems
->traders and galactic encounters randomly, get cosmos gems to access untold areas, maps of places no one can get to...
->Secret, get ingame podcasts when available by hitting alt+p, ALT+P AGAIN CYCLES THROUGH THEM, CTRL+P CLOSES EM,
-Memento system
-Scientific items system elaborations evident
-power recover of various systems rates, shots costing powers
-Allegiance & Dark Allegiance system where by helping others or the illusion of helping them raises your power, fame, and status in the Galaxy.
-Live Omnipotent roleplay
--MMO Mode leaderboards such as EXP
--More enemies with fun catch phrases?
--what ASPECTS DO YOU WANT WORKED ON MORE? Send ideas and buy triderium. Forums or email is cool.
--multi drops, more rares, uncommons
--more advanced inventory->Scroll deeper, limited by volume, weight slows your thrust + adds collision damage & kickback, sort with different filters, better descriprtion, items catch on fire in inventory, emit toxic gases, melt, get destroyed by oncoming heat attacks or collisions
--Ability to dimensionally recover items picked up previous session... You have em saved on server, just can't see when you load until next patch.... Use upgrades when you got em!
-Conquer Stars and setting taxes and laws
-story history replay dialogue
-more achievements
-Asteroids properly breakinto more than oen
-Give android race an android sounding voice
--Three forms of Ground Combat: GROUND COMBAT FORM I) One is a classical First Person Shooter (FPS) with vehicles.
GROUND COMBAT FORM II) One is tactical Real Time Turn Based Game(RTTG) from top down, almost isometric. RTTG will give you the feel of a classic orthogonic chess like game with cover, vision and such, yet everyone plays at the same time. RTTG mode happens when you enter populated towns, not because the server can't handle infinite players in a small zone, but because it feels more intense when any action and fight can start from the shadows. Movement is freer and faster when no one has fights going on nearby.
GROUND COMBAT FORM III)One is a 3d Fighter Game you'd see in Arcades from the 90s, but with the ability to change targets.
Starfighter General is the Everything Game. And it's for real. Let me know what you want me to dev next. Virtual Goods buys lets me sub contract parts out to make the game faster. Talk about what you want, and if you got the money, be a driver, push this game's development faster. I'm a 64x coder, people who meet me don't believe people like me exist, so I get things done... I just have literally 0$ funding at the moment. You'll see things in Starfighter General you thought were impossible and things never done before... Be a believer, or heck, just play and enjoy.
KNOWN BUGS: 1) Iron ore is called a book 2) Collision detection on giant space ships is clunky and can be very annoying if you get close 3) Vision obscuring of mesh fog in junk yard 4) Laser angle not straight 5) TEXT RENDDER DEPTH of chatting aliens, or targetting computer needs fixed so always visible.
Enable Prime Skils(21):
Attribute is the attribute that influences the skill, Min Int is the minimum intelligence to acquire skill, skill point costs is the number of skill points required (each intelligence you get 1 point), and the name, well, that's the Name:
Mining ships, transport friggates, shipping containers, tugs, destroyers, capital ships, limi
Closing about determination and the long play... If you're of meager means like myself... You can enjoy the challenge MMODE over the long haul... Always getting stronger, never weaker, the ship upgrades, your level, your ascended masteries, your money, your credits, and most of all your own skill level and reflexes that you don't notice but is always increasing.

--Three forms of Ground Combat: GROUND COMBAT FORM I) One is a classical First Person Shooter (FPS) with vehicles.
GROUND COMBAT FORM II) One is tactical Real Time Turn Based Game(RTTG) from top down, almost isometric. RTTG will give you the feel of a classic orthogonic chess like game with cover, vision and such, yet everyone plays at the same time. RTTG mode happens when you enter populated towns, not because the server can't handle infinite players in a small zone, but because it feels more intense when any action and fight can start from the shadows. Movement is freer and faster when no one has fights going on nearby.
GROUND COMBAT FORM III)One is a 3d Fighter Game you'd see in Arcades from the 90s, but with the ability to change targets.
Starfighter General is the Everything Game. And it's for real. Let me know what you want me to dev next. Virtual Goods buys lets me sub contract parts out to make the game faster. Talk about what you want, and if you got the money, be a driver, push this game's development faster. I'm a 64x coder, people who meet me don't believe people like me exist, so I get things done... I just have literally 0$ funding at the moment. You'll see things in Starfighter General you thought were impossible and things never done before... Be a believer, or heck, just play and enjoy.
KNOWN BUGS: 1) Iron ore is called a book 2) Collision detection on giant space ships is clunky and can be very annoying if you get close 3) Vision obscuring of mesh fog in junk yard 4) Laser angle not straight 5) TEXT RENDDER DEPTH of chatting aliens, or targetting computer needs fixed so always visible.
Enable Prime Skils(21):
Attribute is the attribute that influences the skill, Min Int is the minimum intelligence to acquire skill, skill point costs is the number of skill points required (each intelligence you get 1 point), and the name, well, that's the Name:
Mining ships, transport friggates, shipping containers, tugs, destroyers, capital ships, limi
Closing about determination and the long play... If you're of meager means like myself... You can enjoy the challenge MMODE over the long haul... Always getting stronger, never weaker, the ship upgrades, your level, your ascended masteries, your money, your credits, and most of all your own skill level and reflexes that you don't notice but is always increasing.

Grew up hearing my Dad tell stories of Jimmy and I finally found his car in the wild
We always cheered for the smaller teams and Jimmy was the best of them.
Had never been to this place close to Chattanooga but they had a TON of nascar collectibles and I plan on going back when I have some more time.

2024.05.12 18:51 Class_Main Larson says the NASCAR race is his priority, so I'm really doubting his chances of winning the 500 now

According to a Team Chevy Q&A he did, which you can read a transcript of here: https://www.jayski.com/2024/05/12/nascar-will-be-kyle-larsons-top-priority-during-indianapolis-500-effort/
I feel like if you are going to really, truly go for the win in the Indianapolis 500, you have to be 110% focused on that with nothing else as a distraction. And that's not just the race, but the practices and qualifying as well. He has the NASCAR All-Star race serving as a distraction on qualifying weekend, and then of course the 600 miler as his evening plans the day of the race. I'm just not convinced he is going to be as "all-in" as someone needs to be to win the race. He should do well, since he is talented and in good enough equipment to do so, but to win? I just don't know if that's on the table after reading his answers to that Q&A. It comes across as the 500 is a fun little side project, but the important job is the 600.

2024.05.12 17:36 ElSpazzo_8876 Transfer Incomings and Outgoings Discussion

Title says it all really. Yes, I'm going to ask you a question for you all: What's the plan for your team squad in question for the 2024-25 season? Any expected incomings and ongoings for your own club? Is there any players you want to buy or sold to prepare for the next season? I knew the fact that the squad revamp can be unpredictable. But I'm curious about your own predictions for the incomings and outgoings for your own team that you support. I might not get the definitive answer but hey, it's fun to discuss about it anyways about the best scenario or worst scenario for your squad in the future and what your ideal plan is for the team that you support.
And yes, this question also applies to club that is promoted to Premier League (Leicester, Ipswich and either the playoff teams) teams that recently relegated from said league (Burnley, Sheffield and either Luton or Forest), teams recently promoted from League 1 (Portsmouth, Derby and either Bolton or Oxford) and also teams that recently got relegated to League One (Birmingham, Huddersfield and Rotherham).

2024.05.12 17:09 GuthefeaMatahiko KDF's Most Secretive Unit, Unmasked & Explained (Don't Tell Them)

News Broke, KDF 🇰🇪 is seeking funding to acquire a New Advanced Air Defense System, specifically SPYDER from Israel, (hold on, we're coming back to this).
Kenya 🇰🇪 according to sources, operates 4 Marcon s600 AD Radars, information which you don't easily get across the internet.
These are just surveillance radars in S-band and L-band and a height-finder in C-band, reports also shows they have anti-jamming capabilities.
Kenya Air Force 🇰🇪 have several squadrons that operate under Air Defense Regiment(ADR), (formerly ADCU) interestingly KDF doesn't give a lot of information about this.... Among them;
843 Radar Squadron - That was moved to Mariakani. 841Radar Squadron- Wajir Air Base °°° Radar Squadron - Narok FOB 842- Radar Squadron - Laikipia
💥 Satellite Imagery below shows what is believed to be s600 already installed at Narok FOB & Wajir, now an Airbase.
s600 Radara detect enemy low aircraft, UAV, missiles, so that ground to air missiles can be launched for interception. This requires involvement of another Artillary unit or Strike Unit of Air Force, also they have renovated the Hawk Rocket System.
KDF 🇰🇪 in it's modernization thirst, want to have a SPYDER, in it's possession. One of Lt Col Henry Mwenemeru's favorite Air Defense System.
🚀SPYDER> in full means, "Surface-to-air Python and Derby"
A Website notes, "It provides protection at different ranges against a variety of threats: UAVs, aircraft, helicopters, and short-range ballistic missiles. The system intercepts threats by means of two families of missiles produced by Rafael: Python and Derby.
It's a complete air defense system consisting of radar, the TopLite EO/IR sensor, command and control, and Python and Derby interceptors, all mounted on one vehicle."
Ethiopia operates the system, which to me is useless!!!!!!
KDF say plans can still change.... let's wait

2024.05.11 20:11 MDavout81 The Sum of the parts of Paramount Global are worth far more than $14 Billion

Sony/Apollo have made an initial offer of $26 Billion for all of Paramount Global including Debt. The Debt stands at roughly $12B. And the company is sitting on about $2B in cash. So that leaves us with $14 Billion in cash for our stock A/B. NAI/Shari Redstone will need about $2B of that for her to agree to sell her control stake. So that would leave us with $12B for the B's.
And apparently a while back Apollo offered $12B for Paramount Studio, IP, and Real Estate. So if that's true then they are looking to buy the rest of Paramount Global minus the debt for $2B. In my last post I laid out a few guesses at some possible rough valuations for sum of the parts of Paramount. Let's see what we get:
  1. Paramount Studio - I'm going to include the studio it's Real Estate and it's IP, conservatively let's value this at a fire sale price of $20B. It could be worth far more with the IP and the Real Estate fully unlocked.
Studio - $10B
IP - $7B
Land - $3B
  1. CBS - All the assets of CBS news and sports - It's Affiliates, IP and sports rights and lets also throw in the New York Office building
CBS - $10B
  1. Viacom Legacy Cable Networks - Fire sale discounted prices of Showtime, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, MTV, BET, Paramount Networks, and some smaller channels which some are sub stations of the larger networks of Showtime and MTV and Paramount.
Showtime Networks- $3B - Multiple channels of Showtime
Nickelodean Networks - $5B - Multiple various Nick channels
Comedy Central - $1B
MTV Networks - $1B - I'm packaging CMT and VH1 and MTV
BET - $2B
Paramount Networks - Paramount channel - Tv land - Pop TV - Smithsonian - $1B
Total on a bad day $13B
Sum of the Parts:
Studio - $20B
CBS - $10B
Viacom cable assets - $13B
Cash - $2B
Debt - $12B
Total rough estimate: $45B - $12B
$33B Enterprise Value
This is why you hear the $30 billion number thrown around so much in fair valuation estimates. Paramount Global values itself at this number but for some unknown reason the stock market doesn't recognize the value reflected in the market cap of the A/B shares.
But let's say I'm being too rich with my estimates and a single buyer wants a discount for all the parts of Paramount Global including the assumption of debt that would still be north of $30B.
NAI/Shari $2B plus the remaining A's - $2B 5% of the float is like 33 million shares at - $60 a share.
All the B's would then get about $30B cash Roughly 633 million shares of B which is just north of $47 a share.
Now lets examine the current offer for Sony/Apollo $26B including debt -
A's - $2B
B's - $14B
Debt - $12B minus $2B in cash on hand = $10B
A's = $60 a share roughly 5% of float 33 million shares
B's = $22 a share roughly 633 million shares
So if my math is correct the Sony/Apollo deal is a Home Run for them and a massive discount for us regular B class shareholders. I guess the only silver lining is that Paramount has some real room to negotiate and get us a better deal.
But who is negotiating that deal now that Bob Bakish is no longer the CEO? Is Shari now the only one who decides the deal. If that is the case then she may decide to pass on any offers currently on the table given the steep discount. Assuming that Shari's position is always the same $2B payout for transfer of control stake. Then let's hope Shari and the board can negotiate us a better deal.
The Skydance deal is a an even bigger joke if you start to examine it by the real numbers. In no reality is Skydance ever worth $5B. I can not believe that it was even contemplated as an option. If the Ellison group wants to take control of Paramount then they should pay up like everyone else. I don't know what Skydance is really worth as a company. Maybe a billion or two at most. David Ellison is a smart guy who comes from one of the richest families in the world. His father might be the 5th richest person in the world with his stake in Oracle. David and his sister also have trust funds worth billions in Oracle stock. Put up your own money and put real skin in the game like all of us shareholders. We see the value as much as you do we just want you to pay a fair price to come in and take control from Shari and the Redstones.
You can still be a player if you just did things Kosher from now on. Buy up a large stake in Para B at these distressed prices. Or Tender a percentage 20 - 30% at a fair price. Then buy up Shari's stake and the remaining A's for $2B and take control of the company. Forget the Skydance merger for now and work on getting the company healthy and profitable. Show us shareholders that you are a true visionary and increase the share price and then down the road you can try and merge Skydance and Paramount together for a fair price but let the shareholders vote to decide.
If Shari and the Board decide to pass on the offers and go it alone from here on out then she will need to find a new CEO and one that is empowered to make the tough decisions to get the company back on track. Restructuring and streamlining the company to better reflect the current media landscape and unlock shareholder value.
Paramount Global possibly would want to hold onto CBS and Nickelodeon. I see the most value from the content and IP side of the business going forward. Replicating Sony with a streamlined Paramount Global consisting of content from Paramount Studio, CBS, and Nickelodeon.
I put a premium on Nickelodeon compared to the other legacy cable channels. The IP and the licensing rights for Nick are going to command a premium. I believe it is a bargain at $5B. That's why Sony/Apollo stand to make billions if they are able to make a deal. Nick has been the most popular kids cable channel for decades. The Spongebob franchise and many more shows are very desirable to any integrated media company. I've read that many parents just keep paying for cable just to have Nick for their kids to watch. How many of Paramount + subs are for Nick? In todays media engagement is the key metric and Nick brings the kids eyeballs to the television. I would think if you carved out Nick for sale you would have interest from WBD, Disney, and NBC Universal and possibly more. If you want to even do so it might make more sense to hold onto it given its premium and still solid engagement on both cable and streaming.
CBS has value beyond sports and news they have many #1 rated television shows. And more important they have a library of shows and content that by some estimates is 30,000+ episodes of different shows. That level of content is impossible to easily replicate. It's a trophy asset in itself. They have been #1 in news forever. Valuable franchises in 60 minutes and Face the Nation, and Nightly News to name just a few. CBS news can stand on its own or can be combined to enhance an existing news channel like CNN.
CBS sports is also very valuable today. PGA Golf and Nascar and NFL rights are very valuable today but probably will be out of reach come the next contracts. We see that playing out right now in NBA with TNT and NBC Universal vying for rights. If that's the case then it might make more sense to get out of the football business now and get the best price today. The writing is on the wall for the industry all the various major sports leagues are going to want to go after the most money they can command for viewing rights in the future. It's important to understand that CBS is also the portfolio of local broadcast affiliates. Major market local news channels. Many Billions of dollars lay locked up in these assets. Private equity is drooling to get their hands on these assets.
I'm a regular shareholder and these changes seem very obvious to me. We have a great company here with tremendous value ready to be unlocked with the right leadership. Little things would go a long way towards improving the company. With the right moves this company could be many multiples higher in market cap. I wish an Activist Investor would step in and buy into the company. Buffet saw the long term value but lost faith in Shari and management. Collapsing the dual share structure would do wonders for the valuation of the stock. If it's legal we should sell a non core asset and buy out NAI/Shari and the remaining A shareholders for $2B and call it a buyback program. Shari would get paid we would lose very little she would give up her power and control and we shareholders would finally get a vote. Why is this so difficult to implement? Once this was accomplished a new board of directors could be appointed and a new group of shareholders would flock into the stock. Then the board could appoint a new CEO with a real vision for the future of Paramount. Then the board could sell some more non-core assets and implement a large debt reduction plan/share buyback program that would clean up the balance sheet and remove all remaining shorts from the stock. Then merge Paramount + with someone or all of them WBD/Peacock/Disney to create a new streaming bundled service. We would then be a content provider partner for the new entity. Then adopt a Sony like operating plan "Content Arms Dealer" and realize the free cash flow from selling content to everyone who wants to pay for it.

2024.05.11 04:12 MisterFrontRow [WTS CONUS] Platinum Celluloid Koi; Vintage Waterman/Sheaffer/Parker/Esterbrook; Kaweco Sports; Entry-Level FPs

Hello, all: I am downsizing my accumulation (“collection” suggests something more deliberate). I have a sort of smorgasbord of pens, from a few nice-to-me pens to entry-level pens that might be good for penabling others.
Platinum 3776 Celluloid Koi: Pics here. I came across this at an estate sale several months ago. Grade: A2–I’ve dipped it twice (incl. once for this post). It does not appear to have been previously inked. It’s a beautiful pen. There has been nominal celluloid shrinkage (expected), but the barrel twists on and off with virtually no effort. It is an older model: note the scrollwork on the cap, nib size (F) written in Kanji, and how the barrel screws onto, and not into, the section. There is a patch of grey/white celluloid on the grip section that is a bit muddled, but this is typical of celluloid: $275 including shipping. Comes in original box with a converter and an ink cartridge.
Pilot Elite 95 (Japan): Pics here. Grade A2. Burgundy/creme. F nib. Purchased new last year; inked just a few times, which taught me that the nib’s side channels will ink your fingers if you occasionally hold the pen too low on the barrel (alas, no Carene or Targa in my future). Comes in original box; I will include a Con-40 converter: $80 plus shipping. SOLD
Waterman 3-V EF Flex nib: Pics here. Grade C/D+. Purchased last year when I made a brief foray into flex nibs. My knowledge of flex nibs is less-than-stellar; the nib flexes, but it takes more effort than I expected (probably user error). A new sac was installed when I purchased it. It’s a pretty pen, but it is small. Like, maybe 4mm longer than a capped Kaweco Sport-small. Lever filler works well, crisp imprints, smooth EF writer, but I graded it C/D+ grade because I don’t know the pen’s innards: $65 plus shipping. SOLD
Parker 51 Special: Pics here. Broad nib, and it writes smooth, broad, and wet. Grade: B. 14K nib, which Parker used when octanium/steel nibs were unavailable. Purchased from a reputable Parker restorer: $50 plus shipping. SOLD
Sheaffer Cadets: Pics here. Grades: B (green) /D (burgundy). F nibs. Cadets are overlooked because of their steel nibs, but IMO you’ll be hard-pressed to find a bettesmoother (yet with a hint of feedback) steel nib on a modern or vintage pen. I have two other Cadets with sentimental attachments that I am keeping. I purchased the green Cadet from Peyton Street Pens; it has crisp imprints, minimal micro scratching. The burgundy is a nice writer, but it has obvious micro scratching, light imprints, and brassing on the clip. $50 / $3O including shipping. BURGUNDY CADET SOLD
Esterbrook SJ: Pics here. Grade: B-/C+. Currently fitted with a smooth 2556 nib. I will also include a 955X nib (that could use a bit of smoothing): $35 plus shipping. SOLD
Eversharp Skyline Pen/Pencil Set: Pics here. Grades—Pen D / Pencil B. The pen has a smooth, wet M nib. See pic for defect in the derby behind/under the clip. Some micro scratching. The lever filler is a bit loose. Will lay flat, but not as tight as the Waterman or Esterbrook. The pencil is outstanding; fully stickered, filled with lead, and mechanically sound. Comes in original box: $55 including shipping.
Kaweco Sport Package: Pics here. Grades B / A2. I thought I would regret buying these pens. I was right. Pocket pens just aren’t my jam. Package is one Brass Sport, one Mint sport, one hexagonal clip, eight full packs of cartridges, and one pack (Royal Blue) sans one cartridge. I applied a layer of metal-friendly varnish to the Brass Sport grip section to minimize brass-smelling hands. Brass Sport has sardine tin-style package: $50 plus shipping. SOLD
Entry-Level/Penabling Pilot Package: Pics here and here (except Asvine V126, which has been sold). Two Pilot Metros F (lime green/black), one Pilot Prera CM/Stub (chocolate brown), one Pilot Kakuno EF. Grades: A2/A2/A2/A2. Cases included for the Metros (and maybe the Prera). I will include one Con-40 or one Con-20 converter (your choice). EF Asvine Black Matte Forest (inked once); EF Jinhao 82 (inked four times); EF Jinhao Dadao 9019 (inked twice). Grades: A2/A2/A2. Forest, 9019, and 82 include their converters: $35 including USPS Ground Advantage shipping. (I am serious about de-stashing my pens) SOLD
From China with Love Penabling Package: . EF Asvine V126 vac-filler (inked once); EF Asvine Black Matte Forest (same); EF Jinhao 82 (inked four times); EF Jinhao Dadao 9019 (inked twice). Grades: All A2. The V126 comes in its case/box. It’s a fantastic writer (I probably struggled most with selling this pen lol). It looks like there is a faint water ring at the top of the plunger from cleaning it after its one inking. 9019, 82, and Forest include their converters: $30 plus shipping. ASVINE SOLD I plan on combining the Pilot and FCWL (minus Asvine) packs into a single pack.
Note RE Shipping: I will send all pens CONUS via USPS Ground Advantage. I expect to charge $5 for mailing individual pens, $10 for mailing packages.
Please PM with any questions—thanks, all!

2024.05.10 19:30 larrythegrouch Lot N - Info & Experience Reference Post

Greetings! We camped at Lot N for the first time last year and we'll never go back to staying in a hotel and dealing with traffic. I wanted to compile a post as a reference for those coming to Lot N for the first time this year.
Reservations
As of May 10th, you can still pick up Lot N passes for $875 for the weekend at this link.
This reservation includes a pass for (1) car or tow vehicle and (1) camper. It is not a 'per person' charge in any way.
This lot does not include any power or water services, but I will go into that later.
Lot N Timing
Lot N officially opens at noon on Thursday and closes at noon on Monday. Spots are 'first come, first served'.
We arrived at noon on Thursday to a pretty long line but got a prime spot. "Check-Out" seems pretty laid back on Monday so I'm sure nobody is there standing around waiting on you to leave by noon on Monday.
If you arrive on Friday, good luck finding a spot. I believe in you.
If you have entered the lot early on Wednesday, please send me a DM for my own personal reference ;)
Renting a Camper
This is the route we go. We've used both Outdoorsy and RV Share. We have simply rented a fifth-wheel and had it delivered and set-up on our spot. Delivery can be pricey and varies wildly based on the unit, but all in for (4) nights after fees, taxes, delivery, etc. we've spent between $1,200 and $1,600 for a fifth-wheel camper.
Make sure to communicate with your provider before booking to make sure they accommodate the drop-off and pick-up times. Most people work regular jobs and don't have availability to drop-off and pick-up on Thursday / Monday.
Also confirm the type of generator they have. Also, and many units don't have them even when it's listed as an amenity so make sure to check before booking.
You are able to have a tow vehicle drop off your unit and depart after set-up without having to use your parking pass. We usually walked down and met the trailer at the entrance to the lot with the 'trailer pass' and the attendants will let the tow vehicle in to drop off your unit.
Lot Size
The official length is 40' but we were able to put a 43' in there without too much issue. It largely depends your neighbors. We had slideouts on both sides and it was a little tight but doable. Again, it largely depends on the size of the rig you're parked next to.
Water / Sewer / Power
No hookups are officially available. There was a row last year that had power hookups but we're not completely sure of how to obtain those spots, I'll update the post once I have that information. I want to say it was $500 for the weekend. We're trying to get one of those spots this year to simply save on going out to get gas for the generator every day as it was a hassle we'd like to avoid. We ran the generator 24 hours a day last year so we were going through quite a bit of fuel.
The company who operates the showers also manage the water delivery and pump-outs. I want to say it was around $130 for fresh water and pump out. We did it twice for the weekend and mostly showered in the facilities next to the restrooms. You go and pay the provider at the shower / restroom facility and they give you colored ribbons to place on your unit and they travel around and service the units with those colored ribbons.
Generators
I've never seen someone get in trouble for having a 'non-silent' generator, but your neighbors will notice and it can get obnoxious especially if you don't have a way to place it properly away from doors, etc. The noise between the campers can get pretty bad with a loud generator and when there's no wind, fumes are prevalent.
Showers / Restrooms
There are port-a-potties around the lot and the restroom trailers are free to use (iirc).
You pay $30 a day, per person (at least last year) for access to the showers and I highly recommend it. They're shower trailers similar to the style here. They get cleaned fairly regularly and (mostly) have plenty of warm water. The occasional hiccup here and there, but mostly awesome. Lines aren't usually too long and you just plan to shower 'off times' when it's not super busy. Make sure to take shower shoes / seperate shoes for the walk there and back as well. The area around the facility can get pretty muddy at times, especially if there is any rain at all. Make sure to bring a towel and shower caddy for your things. Not a lot of 'flat space' in the showers.
Misc Notes
The lot is DUSTY!!! Try and keep your doors closed and be prepared to clean out your trailecampetent a lot.
I found this crowd to be less rowdy than say NASCAR or the infield at the 24 Hours of Daytona but others have reported that it's pretty loud pretty late. The only real issues we had with noise are the sound of generators.
The walk to the concerts is pretty long, just keep it in mind. The placement of your vehicle is highly dependant on what you want to have the 'shorter' walk to. Track entrance? Shower trailers? Concerts?
Ice is available for approx. $7 a bag.
Lot N Alternatives
Austin Motor Village. I have no information on this other than they are on the opposite side of the track from Lot N and the pricing, as it looks to me to be $2,700 for the weekend. We have no information other than what is on their website.

Pinewood Katana GR Upgrades?
https://preview.redd.it/8ffq0fxd6jzc1.jpg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3a216158698c24e5bbff22608ca0d4a635a2f405
Looking for advice i'm using Stock pinewood katana GR 2023 size 47. I'm 5'7 and 75kg doing 100km-250km a week Fairly new to cycling and enjoying it so far.
Right now im riding mostly on 90% road 10% off-road, uphills Also in to bike touring/ backpacking, i chose a gravel bike for those reason since im not sure about the road in most areas. (last ride was in marinduque island)
My possible upgrades based on my research/experience. (please do recommend if you know a good one) 1. Saddle ( Stock pinewood saddle a little to hard for me, making it uncomfortable on long rides i had to use padded shorts even in short rides) 2. Cockpit (Probably need a longer stem since it's size 47 for a better bike fit) 3. Tires (from 40c planning to change to 32c-35c) more speed i guess
not on my priorities but will upgrade later until its worn out 4. bb, Chainring and cogs to tiagra for a full tiagra groupset. 5. Breaks
Any budget-friendly upgrade recommendations? Thanks

New to IndyCar and wanting to learn more before the 500. Planning to watch the race this weekend and the Indy NXT races. Caught up on the first two Indy NXT races but haven’t watched the Indy Car races yet. Have any been really good this year? I’m usually a NASCAR fan and Kansas was a good race but this season has been a little boring. Any recommendation on races to watch to get an idea of it? Thanks for any suggestions!

2024.05.10 03:12 RodeoBoss66 Kid Rock is Trying to Make Rodeo Great Again

Kid Rock is Trying to Make Rodeo Great Again

Million-dollar team rodeo to debut at AT&T Stadium on May 17, opening PBR World Finals weekend.

by Andrew Giangola
Mar 15, 2024 7:30 PM EDT
On Thursday morning, Kid Rock rode a horse across the home of the Dallas Cowboys to officially unveil his namesake rodeo that will take over cavernous AT&T Stadium on May 17.
His head-to-toe black outfit was punctuated by dazzling gold sequins, spelling out “COWBOY” across his back, a mash-up vision of the Electric Horseman, Johnny Cash, John Lee Hooker, and the skinny Vegas Elvis.
But don’t get the wrong idea.
The content play tailor-made for social and entertainment media may have been staged for the cameras, but this was not the kind of lame brand licensing play that slaps a well-known name onto the latest fad to cash a paycheck.
Beyond Kid Rock’s flair for the dramatic is a hands-on collaborator with a deep and longstanding affection for Western sports and culture, rodeo fans, cowboys and cowgirls who get on horses and bulls, the early-rising straight talkers who raise and care for the animals, and America.
With his pioneering and timeless country rap hit “Cowboy” booming from the overhead speakers, Kid Rock’s brief trip across the grassless stadium floor on a six-year-old team roping stallion named Big Time was the opening salvo for a heart-and-soul endeavor, a labor of love, an out-of-the-comfort zone foray to create for rodeo something new that provides opportunities to athletes he respects while entertaining people he admires.
Robert James Richie grew up the son of a successful car dealer 40 miles north of Detroit in an American colonial house on six acres of land with a horse stable and apple orchard out back. He has since said we all have definitive moments in life. His came at about five years of age, riding a tractor with his brother, who fell off and would lose a leg. Little Bobby decided he’d live every moment of life to its fullest.
He wanted to be a rapper and a breakdancer. Adopting the Kid Rock persona while blurring lines between hip hop, country and rock, he shot to stardom in the 1990’s. He also began performing at the Houston Rodeo, Calgary Stampede, and Cheyenne Frontier Days and fell hard for the sport of rodeo. Away from the paid gigs, he started attending as a fan. “It’s just something I enjoy doing,” he said. “I got into PBR, thinking, ‘This is crazy! These guys are jumping on bulls.’ I loved all things Western and cowboy.”
Equally compelling was the culture surrounding the events.
“It’s just good folks and good people I want to be around,” he said. “There’s an invocation. We stand up and take off our hats for the national anthem. Everyone’s welcome, and it’s a place for hard-working folks who love this country and want to watch top-notch entertainment worthy of their hard-earned dollar.”
When, after three decades as an individual sport, PBR was adding Teams competition, Kid Rock expressed interest in purchasing one of the eight founding teams.
But discussions with PBR CEO Sean Gleason kept returning to rodeo – steeped in tradition but languishing. At the same time, PBR – a standalone sport that peeled off from rodeo more than three decades ago – had exploded in popularity.
Over a few beers, they wondered: While everything Western booms, why should rodeo be left behind? Could a contemporary shakeup of rodeo help re-energize its growth?
Seeing the success of five-on-five bull riding games in a league quickly expanding to 10 teams in its third season, Gleason had mentally mapped the idea of a team rodeo: head-to-head, bracket-style showdowns triggering competitive drama and storylines. Kid Rock would bring the show-biz chops to amp rodeo into a sizzling entertainment experience.
They agreed to partner on Kid Rock’s Rock N Rodeo – a million-dollar team-formatted rodeo infused with a Kid Rock performance on May 17 at AT&T Stadium to open PBR World Finals-Championship weekend May 18-19.
Between the rodeo and PBR’s individual title event, more than $4 million will be paid out to athletes, which Gleason says makes it the richest weekend in Western Sports.
The teams have unexpected creative names. Lest anyone think Misty Mountain Hop is inspired by a new craft brew, the roots of that team trace to Led Zeppelin’s fourth record. Kid Rock, who has said his favorite building in the world is the Motown Museum in Detroit, came up with the idea of naming the teams after songs he loved.
“If you want to increase rodeo’s appeal to a new generation of fans and make it a badass sport, you need a badass partner,” Gleason said. “We are considered to be pretty good marketers. Kid Rock is fantastic.”
Gleason said that the day he phoned six Western sports legends to see if they’d coach in a rockin’ million-dollar team rodeo – which they immediately agreed to – was when “I knew we were onto one of the most exciting things that could happen in rodeo.”
He didn’t know it at the time, but one of those newly minted coaches, Sid Steiner, a.k.a. Sid Rock, coach of the Jokers, had a connection to the rap-rock showman on the hook for bringing the sizzle to this steak.
If Kid Rock had chosen a career jumping off horses to wrestle steers, he’d probably look a lot like Sid Steiner, a trailblazing showman and the 2002 PRCA Steer Wrestling World Champion.
It turns out that Sid Rock, who sported long hair, had body piercings, and was often introduced by arena announcers as “The Wild Child of Rodeo,” got his nickname from listening to Kid Rock.
Sid had discovered Kid watching videos on MTV. He was drawn to the energy, the beat, the look.
He ran right to the local mall to pick up the “Devil Without a Cause” on CD.
“This was my foundation. It changed my world,” Steiner said. “And now, to share an event and a stage with Kid Rock is surreal.”
To get involved with PBR, Kid Rock could have easily agreed to play concerts alongside bull riding or rodeo events. But he wants so much more as co-producer and co-creator of a rodeo league that grows into communal celebrations.
The long-term plan aims to bring Kid Rock’s Rock N Rodeo to other cities. Maybe other big acts can join the music infusion.
Kid Rock is consistently humble when making predictions about the team rodeo’s debut inside the NFL’s largest indoor stadium, only warning fans not to miss the opening and saying he hopes it all works out.
He may be a cowboy from Detroit, but his reputation as a “disruptor” qualifies him for putting a fresh stamp on rodeo with a productive kick in the butt to push it toward the mainstream, just as he’s done with genre-bending music formats.
“I’m invested in the long haul as a league owner,” Kid Rock said. “We want to create something special for hard-working people who love rodeo, music, and this country. I’m so proud and blessed. I don’t take this opportunity lightly.”
He came into the giant stadium he wants to fill dazzling on a horse, a fitting way to properly unveil a namesake rodeo with very big dreams.

2024.05.09 23:05 HolyMin Fenerbahce Situation From Outside

Long post probably, will add tldr i just like typing stuff these days so here is my opinion :
I will have several points for the whole situation, for me FB had an exceptional season on many fronts and had small but critical and persisting failures from the management side that lead to the situation. Lets have a look :
A nearly perfect summer, bargain deal for Syzmanski, Dzeko and Tadic for veteranship and quality which FB lacked last season with Jesus. Altough pricey really good CB duo that is above league level. A great goalkeeper which did not settle early in the season but was perfect apart from a few goals later. I would say midfield was good while Ismail-fred was healthy and only transfer that i highly went against was Cengiz. We will talk about the winter window later. This was not the case before this season due to not having someone like Branco before. Give Ali Koc his flowers for letting someone else have the authority where he lacked.
Lets talk about the coach, Ismail is not a proven winner or anything and yes there is a lot to talk about, but he got the job done early in the season. Weak opponents but perfect results, also doing 15 wins in a row's not an easy job. He got the defence right, let the team roll the way there were good at and had a good game plan. One thing that is always brought up is the home game vs GS, just to remind you Jesus was the worst coach in FB history when it comes to derbies. Iso didn't bite the bait and let his fullbacks stay with GS wingers to avoid the same trap that worked last year.
Like it or not, Ismail made a decision within his capacity and did better than Jesus who is a better coach if you ask me. Last year Jesus took the bait and lost 3-0 which was the momentum shift of the season. The problem with Ismail Eagle's tactical side is that his b plan was not good enough and the transfers did not complement another playstyle. That also touches the kent situation, krunic transfer and more that happened during the season. Fenerbahce lost at least 6-9 points by the decision making of Ismail Eagle and also a potential european title. It was totally within reach and it shows right now.
Jesus had a good squad, nothing that compares to Iso and he had a terrible derby performance where he lost to gs fb and every big game, Iso had arguably top 5 squad in TSL history and got a record breaking season, which is unlucky because there was a better side. I do not think Ismail did bad stat wise, in fact he did an outstanding job. But he lost the locker room as reported, dzeko fred and many players feel he was not good enough and his communication is not enough. I also want to touch to another point which is the coaching staff, terrible medical staff and him insisting that they are good somehow.
If you say I did this and I did that and I trust my staff, well you are to blame when it all falls down. I would say Iso would be enough another season, but this season he could not handle pressure, match the tactical knowledge and decision making of his counterpart Okan and also did not manage well when it mattered in last 3rd of the season. Fener hasn't played well for almost 2 months now and that is what happens when you have 30 players in the squad and your most important veterans play the whole season. Tadic and Dzeko are visibly tired, ismail and irfan are injured. But we have a bigger problem with management. Before we move on to them i have to mention winter windows is terrible, you cannot buy al these players and send them to club like its ea fc, they are human beings that effect the locker room. Only 16 can play a match and currently half of them are not playing. With the injuries they are still luxury players. Lets move on to the main problem.
That problem is Ali Koc, I am sorry, you cannot shift the momentum of the team completely like this and ask for a positive outcome. Fener won the TS away, if you did not do all that bullshit and go back for ADS game with the support of your crowd, win against gs or at least contest them on the supercup you are good to go. If you do not let the players play against their ONLY rival and lose a cup, if you call 40k people just to say I am mad or whatever, if you include your players in policitics you will lose. Altough Fener did not perform well all the time they still did win, look at the team after the bullshit in april. Ali koc lost the title with that decision in my opinion.
Another point regarding Ali koç is that the club got too involved with politics and refs and all that. Gala got away with some stuff, fener also did. Even TS got away with shit, fener won a lot of points with pens and that is fine. Gala only had 1 game where they changed the outcome with a pen, only a single game. They had favorable and terrible calls. They also got involved with politics but the team did not get effected. You cannot go at referees with a every mistake you make. You also never ever involve players with politics and never make them lose a cup just because you think it is right. How many cups have these players won in their life? Dzeko has such longevity on top teams and he would want that fucking cup altough he won a shit ton, this is their legacy. You dont play 50 games a year just to work train play get insulted get injured and not get on the fucking field when you are about to win something. This is beyond dumb from management.
I am not saying onfield decisions did not change any outcome, it surely did for all parties. But making it your main point of argument is a bad mindset, it does not take you anywhere but failure. Fener had everything to win everything they have competed in but lost the plot with management. Syzmanszki may have a slump of goals, so what? Players did their part and bad form can be a thing. He also had great form at start. It cannot be all sunshine and blue sky for players, sometimes you just cant find the goal or your personal life may effect you. Combine that with how management handled things, well that is the recipe for disaster.
One more thing I would say is that the fans have been lured into the mindset of Ali Koç, you cannot lose points at home 3 times while your rival goes %100 and expect to be ahead. You cannot have 30 players, bad coaching staff and terrible management in terms of morale and expect the team to be champions. Ali koç with all the good and the bad he has done i think has to go, he loves the team but he hurts the team at this point. His mindset have become a common thing within popular x fb users and generally fans all around. Politics are involved in football, because football is MONEY. In PL you have several investigations regarding bets, shady deals and WORSE. Don't act like TSL is any different it is a top 10 league in the world in terms of popularity, tv deal and many other variable. Ali koc has ties to every political party such as dursun, such as bjk future presidents, such as president of ADS and many others. PSG gets away with shit, city gets away with shit, perez influences balondoor votes for fun. I am a little nostalgic and emotional when it comes to football, but lets be real it will never be the same so you either get over it or you dont. I have not watched tsl for 3 years, I have a different mindset now and it is better for me. I also do support GS, altough not like when i was younger, I do enjoy the teams success.
The point is that Fener had a great season, i think a few transfers or not making them may have made a difference. But the main topic was the management and the coaching stuff, I also have to mention the natural reaction of fb fan base does not help, fans should not tolerate these from the management fans own the club fans make the club what it is. FB was the biggest club before 2000's, it was shared between gs and fb around 2010's and now you see the mentality change when gs got away with these championships. Camiyanın cocugu or whatever just does not help for a club of this size, this is a club and the best man for the job should have the job.
I just like sports, I love analyzing whatever so I just wanted to share my thoughts you agree or not thanks for reading.
TLDR: Things went bad for many reasons, altough there was a lot of good in it management fucked it up, players have no blame whatsoever and ali koc did worse than iso by a margin.

UFL Week 6 TV Rating Comparison
These were the ratings for Week 6 compared to other sporting events going on that time slot
Three games went over my projected range (SA-DC went way over) and HOU-STL fell within my range. A very good weekend for the UFL.
