    Finished the Replicaster late last night. It's a 2023 FSR Squier Affinity Strat in Surf Green. I added the correct Fender Pickguard, 500k volume pot, Telecaster volume knob, Seymour Duncan Invader and a custom Blink bunny engraved neck plate. There are a few major and minor detail differences between the two, but this gives me something to hang on the wall and play at a moment's notice without worrying about where the kids are or what they're doing. I was tuning it this morning and I had one kid wedged behind me on the chair and the other trying to fret notes.

    I put a small chip on the back when a tool I was holding slipped, bounced off the workbench and managed to hit metal end down. 1 in a million shot for most, oddly likely for me.

    It power chords well, I'm pretty happy.

    The list is growing.
    Most of our lights are up. Some small add ons then the inflatable ones. But we wait for them. Last two weeks there’re the first to come in after the holidays

    I run a razer viper ultimate. Have a Glorious model O - for a back up.

    I remember the laser mice when then came out though. It was so much nice than the roller ball mice that only worked 1/3 of the time

    Lol. YouTube? What's that?
    We used to go to websites in the mid 90's on school networks that are 100% black listed. I still remember going to hugh heffs site and if you went to the home page, viewed the info for any jpg it would be hosted in a directory...well you could go to the directory by using the ip...
    So http://l24.457.78/images/image_you_found.jpg

    The images directory would have ALL the images for the website hosted in sub folders that serve to pages behind a paywall. This worked for so many sites back then.
    Oh and I just remembered zspoof!!!

    My first typewriter wasn't even electric :anonymous:
    When I was writing my senior thesis in college I was dating a girl that was a secretary and would type up my latest work on her lunch hour.
    I was terrified she'd breakup with me before the semester ended.

    Lol that came in handy. Those typewriters were pretty cool, I used one when I was young. Just used as a relic, not to actually type up papers though
