I like to wrap my change. In the last 5 years or so, I've bought 3 of those $25-$30 models that sort the coins into tubes where you put the paper rolls. They last so long and then don't work correctly, or they jam up. Generally just a pain in ass and sick and tired of :censored:ing with them. So, this is probably overkill but I ordered this and it shall arrive tomorrow:

On a side note, I am now wrapping change for anyone for a small fee, I have to pay this thing off.
 
@phillkillv2 That's one hell of a deal. How much is it going to cost you to get home though? :lol:

Needed some more storage and thought why not future proof at the same time, seeing as a new laptop is on the horizon within the next year. LaCie Porsche design 4TB USB-C desktop drive.

Not my photo, nabbed from Google.

I've had a very similar one since summer, and love it. Quite quiet, looks ace (matching the iMac), and can be split to have a PC-compatible partition alongside a Mac-only one. Makes it handy to take wherever I need. 👍

I remember you talking about purchasing yours, good to hear you're enjoying it. Slightly annoys me they've changed their design as it doesn't match the Porsche Design 2TB desktop or 1TB portable drives I already owned :lol:.
 
An accurate and useable replica of an Italian flanged war mace from the 16th century.

In the 16th century even lowly foot soldiers wore plate or plate mail armor so swords were no longer really effective, blunt weapons proofed to be much better against armor and gained massive popularity in that period. (maces, war hammers, morning stars)

I just ordered it but once I have it in my hands I will post some pics and a small review in the knives and meele weapons thread.

That's how I felt when I got glasses back in June. :lol: Amazing the difference they make, when you first put them on.

Same sort of deal for me when I got mine about a year and a half ago, the level of difference feels like about 720p to 1080 although they're dirty right now so it's probably closer to a 480 to 1080 difference. I haven't even lost them once yet! :D
 
@Jordan is responsible for at least part of this:

It was an expensive weekend. But, the phones cost us less than expected—especially the Plus—and the glasses were long overdue.
I wonder if these phones have mic issues or just luck on if you get a good one or not. I found the camera picture quality on the 7+ 256GB quite disappointing too, could just have been a badly made phone though.
 
Purchased 3 tickets to see my Mavs take on the Lakers, just a couple rows ahead of these. Think it was around a year ago we watched the Mamba play his last game here.

I'm left handed :) I didn't know you played. What sort of kit do you have?
I'll try to keep this short.

Some friends had a band and they started playing for other friend's graduation parties and things like that. As the one that didn't play an instrument (but I have a decent ear and I could carry stuff!), I was the roadie/mixer. So I wouldn't go so far as to say that I play so much as I screwed around on a friends drum set here and there when he couldn't make it out to practice when the other guys wanted to. I can keep a rhythm alright but fills completely befuddle me. I did have a weird off-beat with the bass drum that, while keeping the timing, sounded wrong. Very wrong. The lead guitarist stopped playing, looked at me and asked what the hell that was and if I could do it again. :lol:

Edit: It was a piss poor attempt to recreate Chris Duarte's My Way Down, which is what I was listening to on the way out to his house.

Other than that, no, I can't play much of anything. :lol:
