@rose_alibi @misternineham some friends of mine used it as accent panels in part of their house and I was surprised how good it looked with a coat of polyurethane and placed in the right environment

@misternineham @rose_alibi I like its contrast against the black frame

I posted a few weeks ago about how people were leaving empty nitrous cylinders lying around and wondering if they could be reused for something.

Someone left two of them in the gutter of my house last night, so I grabbed them to get a better look at them.

They are heavy steel. The end caps look like they're 1/4" thick. The label on the tanks say they are rated 120 bar working pressure (1740 psi). That's a lot of pressure!

@RealGene no, these are not for exchange. The cylinder has a prominent "do not refill" stamp. Plus I see so many of these discarded, each with its own silly branding. These are meant to be disposed of

@RealGene precisely like that

@RealGene They must have tightened up access to that, leading to these new, smaller, throwaway ones

@smellsofbikes you could do the opposite on a mountain bike and get a more aerodynamic riding position by flipping the bars upside down

Today at set build, I was in charge of the small team that built this 7'x10' flat. Then after we were done, the director asked the producer if this flat was supposed to have a door in it. He checked his notes and realized it was, so we had to do some radical surgery to both the flat and a door.

I'm the end we got it done, but it was a busy, sweaty, and hectic day

@caffetiel they are ignorant, but it's also pedantic to mock people for being concerned about creeping fascism in this modern day and age just because there were precursors in the past

@MLE_online@social.afront.org avatar

@caffetiel I think your point would have been better made had you chosen a year in which fascism was in existence and developments in this country more strongly resembled it

At the bar I met a man who had terrible short-term memory because he had brain surgery at some point (They cut my memory out! he said)

He's taking acting classes and he wants to be an actor. That seems like quite a challenge, considering his condition.

What’s the most awesome thing I saw at Hamvention? It has to be the 1964 Ford Econoline full of Collins S-Line gear

1964 Ford Econoline Van labeled “Collins Radio Company Comminications Van”. on the roof are several vintage Hustler antennas
