Yeah, it's bad. Big Pine is getting evac'd. That means this thing run 15ish miles in 3.5 hours. They can't get aircraft on it because of visibility. Initial mapping has it over 2K acres.

 

Jesus. It's February.

 

Yep. In the last 6 years we've had 3 fires in FEB. Crazy.

 

I'm hoping to be the hell out of Reno by summer. I'm probably gonna need to start putting a plan together, cause summer's coming up quick

Rum and coke is in order for the RC tweet, I think

 

Very cool, YouTube...

IDK but the video uploaded for that is not even deinterlaced...like it's intentionally poor quality at high res?

 

something something 26" CRT TV from 1998

26 inches was a very non-standard television size normally 27 was the maximum size until it went to 32. A 32 inch tube TV weighed about 300 pounds.

 

I'm making up stories here, do you really have to call me out like that?

 

old TVs were nuts.
My 27” Sony wega was the one of the first model flat screened tv. It weighed 150 pounds and was just slightly too large and bulky for one person to move.
Fun fact kids: the glass screens used to be dome shaped.
