So been trying to find something im good at, , coming up on dead ends :/ What ever you do for work you're good enough at that they pay you for it \o/ Everyone's good at things, we just don't think of the things we're good at because we're good enough at them that we just do them without thinking about it. And if you're not good at something and want to get good at it there are always ways to do it if you stick with it... though blood, sweat and tears may be involved, or onions.

Best wine coming through. 
:P You. I like you. You know what that is. I'll kill you last. Wish they sold that in regular stores here in OK, they only sell the retro glass bottles in specialty shops. :( We can't even get it here in CT anywhere. Luckily I have a cousin that lives in NC that ships some up a couple times a year. I need to go get some retro bottles but they aren't kept cold. Way my luck is someone would drink it all before it got cold.

So I've hit Lv60 and finished the main story line in XBCX now. Any moment now I should get one of the high end Lv60 mechs.
It's supposed to be the window to gearing up but I can't find much about what to do after it. I know there will be a lot of farming once I start though. The mech alone took me like 5 hours to make.
Total time played now is up to 134 hours still a bunch of side quests to do and bosses to kill.

<(O.o)> And the randomness continues into 2016, this morning it's all about the "Beverage Can"....
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beverage_can#cite_note-doi10.1016.2FS0308-81469700236-7-9
"Aluminium cans are coated internally to protect the aluminium from oxidizing. Despite this coating, trace amounts of aluminium can be degraded into the liquid, the amount depending on factors such as storage temperature and liquid composition."
"Modern cans are generally produced through a mechanical cold forming process that starts with punching a flat blank from very stiff cold-rolled sheet. This sheet is typically alloy 3104-H19 or 3004-H19, which is aluminium with about 1% manganese and 1% magnesium to give it strength and formability."
Why worry? Metal ions are good for your health... :P
For example, without iron, you die from anemia.
Without Potassium (Hypokalemia), you would have kidney problems and even epileptic seizures on worst cases.
And wow look how dangerous pure potassium is:

So a friend asked me if I wanted some copper piping and sheets...
I was asking if he was still home brewing beer and we thought about making a homemade chiller with the copper tubing, just need to bend it....
Now he doesn't know if he has the hard (K) type or the softer (M or L) but I have the vernier here that can check thickness even though it's not a NTEP approved but then again, this isn't for business or what it means, "Not Legal for Trade". Then my friend started asking what NTEP meant...
:/
 Copper sells well, last I heard. If nothing else, recycle it. Make sure to cut off any solder and remove screws, one thing scrap yards like to do to pay you less is regard an entire pipe or sheet as a lesser class of metal if there is a steel screw in a sheet or solder on one end of a pipe. You can either remove screws and/or cut the soldered end off with a hack saw and sell it separately.

Years ago, when the price of copper was skyrocketing during the Chinese infrastructure boom, me and my brother were collecting copper scrap. Everything from solar water heaters to cat5 scraps. We'd spend HOURS sitting in the garage stripping wire and drinking beer. Sadly, there was enough theft of copper from houses under construction, plumbers started using pex, electricians started using aluminum mains, and they even started passing laws about what kinds of things recyclers could accept. So, here me and my brother are, with about 3/4 of a ton of bare copper in the form of pipe scraps and wire who now are unable to sell it. We ended up paying to offload it at a landfill, who I'm sure recycled it for profit.

I just had an interesting business idea; ammunition. I have a rifle that fires .22 Long, not Long Rifle, Long...which is obsolete. So why does no ammo company make obsolete ammo to be sold at a small premium that is loaded specifically for antique firearms? The first round that comes to mind is the one I only know as the .50 Remington that a few rifles and pistols were chambered for, you quite literally have to make the brass from cut down .50-90 brass and the bullet requires a custom made mold as they are also not sold in the correct weight and dimensions.
Now, this is ammo for collector guns but some like to actually shoot their guns occasionally, this would be ammo for them.

I just spent an hour trying to restart my PC....
I think my PC got a virus when I got steam/ffxiv...
Everything has been freezing since then and my settings and UI keep getting changed w/o me doing anything to change those settings.

Dutch bros coffee. I know a few of the girls that work there so I grab coffee a few times a week. Good to have since its close to my house.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
