The magic of the Steam Winter Sale. Actually have some semblance of disposable money this week so I might as well.

Love it

Well just over six years later, the above base model 2011 MacBook Pro 13" has had it's hard drive replaced with a 500 GB SSD, the disk drive replaced with a 120 GB SSD and the original 4 GB RAM replaced with 8 GB to keep it ticking over. But time has come to replace it and I've gone pretty much all out with this:

​

Went with silver, the upgraded CPU and the higher spec Radeon Pro 560 GPU with 4 GB memory and a 512 GB SSD. Here's to another six years before a laptop upgrade.

I wanted to buy a game or two for the PS4. 2017 release line-up was a bit disappointing.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Added some steel books to my collection.

Santa didn't show up at my house, again, so
I'll be my own Santa.

I just received an email so I guess we just ordered these:

I feel dirty.

My girlfriend and I went shopping on a date yesterday. I had to tag along to the makeup store, but she got to come to my favorite hobby shop with me.

So I got a Southern Pacific flat car and a gondola kit for my train layout.

I also was planning on making a small switching layout to have when I'm down at school, so I picked up a new engine that I think will work very well for that.

A Life-Like Proto 2000 GP18 for a very reasonable price. Unfortunately, Proto 2000 engines of this era apparently have issues with drive axle gears cracking. Since two of mine are broken, I bought a set of these:

Revised axle gears from Athearn that are much stronger and won't break. Looking forward to getting these so my new train will purr over the rails instead of thumping its way down the tracks.

Got anime figures out of my life some years back, and now here I am with a monster:

Oh boy will it be fun capturing pics of this.

A large bulb with led filaments. I freaking love how these things look. Bought one to try it out, going to buy a bunch more tomorrow.

Edit.

And this thing because the tv I got as a gift only has 2 hdmi ports. That's ass.

So now I can keep the PS4 on its own port, and the cable box, pc and Nintendo with modern insides on the other port.

Same here, my TV only has 2.... but plenty of AV and Component

I saw you posted in here and thought.... is it going to be Technic?, I am disappoint!

 

[Tunerguy21]

Just picked these up. Got lucky with NieR.

 

[Blood Eagle]

This was a Christmas gift to myself that I got in the mail today. Wanted one for years and finally pulled the trigger lol

What am I even looking at?

What am I even looking at?

Good question. I've never actually looked up any pictures of character CG because all "Valphalk", the product description ever got me were the same low-res product photos. Let's instead look up "Barufaruku":

... Okay! I did not know this thing produced flames from its wings.

Never mind. It looks like those are actually thrusters. Guy flies like a plane.

 

[Sharky.]

Vroom vroom, cars with jandals on the front. Hooray.

Never been to a GP before, and I've only been overseas once, 18 years ago... (also to Aus)

This too

Album sucks but it's Taylor Swift and it's me, so...

 

[Omnis]

I've gone a little off the deep-end with this morale patch game...

And since they were having a 25% off rebate, I figured I'd maximize it. Now I have to figure out where the heck I'm going to store 4000 rounds of 9mm. Gonna have to give the FedEx guy a snack after carrying all that up.

I'm pretty sure ammunition is meant to be used, not stored

In your doomsday bunker, next to the 500 tins of SPAM and your hazmat suit, naturally.

 

[Darla Starch]

AMMO. LOTS OF AMMO.

Album sucks but it's Taylor Swift and it's me, so...

It really does, after the masterpiece which was 1989. She could have kept making floaty synth pop albums for the rest of eternity and it would have been better than 'look what you made me do...' repeat x100. But yeah, maybe seeing a performance with those songs will help improve it

 

[Omnis]

In your doomsday bunker, next to the 500 tins of SPAM and your hazmat suit, naturally.

1000 rounds is only the size of a shoebox. Quite a bit heavier though. And I do have 11 shoeboxes stacked on my dresser in the corner. I do have a problem, I guess. But at least I have a pair of shoes to wear for all of them.

 

[Adamgp]

Had to order one of these, a USB dual band Wifi adapter.

Just upgraded to a dual band router, only to find the built in adapter in my laptop does not support 5 gigawhosits wifi. This should fix that, I hope.
