Kazmania 1 - Trail of Gems. It's an old Lightspan game for the PS1 I used to play long ago when I was in elementary school. A teacher of mine used to have an entire class dedicated to these types of games and this was one of many I used to enjoy back in the days. I mainly got this one so I could catch up on some old memories from a long time ago because they bring back some pretty good memories for me. Won't be the last one I buy either for the same reason.

Lipo balance charger, lipo carrying bag and of course a 3S lipo. Been saving up for these for quite some time to use in my modified Nerf blasters and now I finally got them. However, unfortunately my balance charger does not come with an XT60 plug and I have one coming, but it won't be here until sometime between September 28th and October 22nd. So I have to wait several weeks just to charge the stupid thing! :banghead:

My fiancé and mom to be bought a car seat for our coming son. I of course demanded it to be Recaro. But we got the wrong color!

We ordered Racing Red but got Carbon Black.

See, so much nicer.

Oh well. Might return it if they still have the red. It’s sold out everywhere..
 
I of course demanded it to be Recaro.
That is frickin' awesome!

Two year Toyota Care is up so it was time for me to do my first oil change on the Highlander. We just got a flier for them to do a full synthetic change for $70.

Yeah, pass, thanks.

Instead, I bought the $20 filter housing wrench, the $6 filter, $30 for the oil and $40 for ramps.

I should have bought these a long damn time ago. Made things so much easier.
 
Damn. Those look a lot safer than those evil steel ones.

I will, of course, now search for those too.
Waaaaay better than the (rusty) steel ones my dad had. Says they're rated for 3,000 pounds each; 6k is great plenty for the front end of a Highlander!

Edit: These are FloTools Rhino Ramps.

Good to see that just a boatride for these things almost quadruples the price. Cheapest set here is €125.

We needed those yesterday.
 
I decided to get a pizza oven since my regular one takes forever to heat up. The people that I used to rent a room from had a Pizzazz and it was amazing so I went with one as well.

Is that a rotary pizza cooker?

I've had one for what seems like 10 years or more now. Fantastic. Cinnamon rolls and croissants are great on it too. 👍 :)

Can you use fresh made dough with that or is it for frozen pizzas only?
I’d have to try a slice or 5 to see if it’s worth it.
Also, does it fold up for easier storage?

Both frozen and fresh plus more, google it. Does not fold up. I keep mine in the box it came with, had it for about 3 years still works. Makes cheap frozen pizzas that taste fair. I would buy one again after owning one.
 
You guys the Pizzazz is the real deal! I’ve used it to cook pizza, pizza rolls, taquitos, frozen burritos, egg rolls, french fries, tator tots, and chicken strips and they’ve all turned out better than using a conventional oven. I’ve even cooked eggs and bacon on mine and it turned out sorta okay. Highly recommended. It also works great for reheating food.
 
Rarely do I buy things other than necessities but I relocated the sofa to the balcony and bought pillow seats for the lounge and we had a roof fitted over the back door to cover the washing machine.

Excuse the mess on the table...

Seasonic Focus Gold 650W. I had to RMA my old PSU (Corsair CX600), and the store that I bought it from gave me credit instead of sending me a refurbished/replacement unit. :D I decided that I might as well buy a better model to replace it.
 
Oops. There goes 42 dollars. Not my fault I can't resist a sweater with my dog on it.

Chose a sweater because we cannot wear t-shirts at work. Plus I can wear a collared shirt underneath, which is what work prefers.

Also, please feel free to roast me. I get it. This is lame.

A friend has a computer store and today I bought a Samsung SyncMaster S24B350 for €65.

I'm going to experiment with two practically the same monitors. I want to see what is possible qua FOV with only two 24" monitors. I'm going to use SRWE for this purpose.

I'm at the Brussels Airport waiting for a flight to Manchester.

Since Magritte is my favorite surrealist... and I love cookies, I had to bring this with me. :D
