(it's propped up on books either side of the PS4)

The TV is sitting on the books either side of the PS4.

Tree'd!!

Well. The ventilation looks horrible. You need a decent stand!

I'm having uncontrollable twitching due to the lack of symmetry there @TB.

They came in a three pack. Guess another trip to Costco is in my future for another set!

Thanks that makes me feel better, also it may be the camera angle but could you please measure your tv.
It looks like it may be about 1mm left of center.

It was about 1/4" off.

Past tense.

I got tired of waiting for my CFL bulbs to get brought, or even turn on outside. One was even advertised as having no warm up period. So LED it is.

This is my test run on Monoprice's bulbs. I must say that I am very happy with the results.

Comparison:

The old CFL at startup in current 32F (0C) temperatures.


And the light it provided as seen by my iPad camera.



The new LED bulb on startup.



And the iPad camera visible light.



The CFL eventually gets that bright after a certain amount of time, which is determined by the temperature, but when I hear a noise or let the dog out I want to see clearly right now.

I bought myself a dashcam last night.

The Blackvue DR3500.

Strike that.

I'm returning the dashcam, today. A couple of days ago, I got a replacement Blackvue. This replacement also has issues. There are much cheaper dashcams with better performance than the Blackvue DR3500.

No more Blackvue!

Our (my dad and I's) most recent purchase of note:

Absolutely

Lol.

I've been sitting and thinking about how weird it would be to walk up to someone and say "I just purchased some cats."

I don't have to. My kids do it for me.

Auto Sears 55mm 1.4 on the cheap. Can't really use it on my Nikon at the moment but I plan to switch over to Canon sometime in the near future and I will be able to use it with the help from an adapter.

Pre-ordered one of these a couple of weeks back. Just came in early this week:

 

[Sprite]

More music...

Dels - Petals Have Fallen - White vinyl

Rustie - Green Language 2XLP

Sufjan Stevens - Seven Swans - Blue /Purple Vinyl with 7" extra

Suppose this counts as a purchase, limited run Club Nintendo Mario Kart 8 pins.

I have the DR600GW-HD.

No hardware issues what so ever with it.

If you want a dashcam that is about $150, try the Mini 0805 and if you can wait a while go for the Mini 0806 which is better than the 0805

The guy were I bought the Blackvue is going to import/sell the 0806. Only (minor) drawback of the 0806 is that it is still using a battery instead of a capacitor.

I'm also very interested in the new Panorama X1, which will be released this month or in January.

Truly enjoying these games. The Crew and FC4.

Is it bad that I saw a raccoon and wondered where his gun was?

More like cannon.
The weapon Rocket Raccon uses is quite large

A 550 Paracord bracelet. I'm getting my survival man **** on later this spring.

[TB]

550 Paracord bracelet

Real men make their own bracelets.

Which is why I don't have one , just a bunch of camping gear.

 

[Turtle]

My brother makes paracord bracelets, he's actually quite good at it.

I bought it because I like to hike to camping spots rather than simply driving up and walking over. Paracord has tons of uses, so if something goes wrong for me on the trails, I'll probably find a way to use it.

I've been looking at paracord belts, too. I think I might take up the little challenge and make one for myself.

Got these last Friday: Far Cry 4, Grid Autosport, Medal of Honour and Tomb Raider for the 360. Oh, and I just got Battlefield 3 yesterday.
