- Comment on Does anyone know where or even IF I can purchase this scope mount part? 3 weeks ago:
but I do like being able to fully collapse the stock My stock is also foldable, actually! Emphasis on foldable, as yours looks to be actually collapsible.
If I can be a spoilsport, please, please don’t use lasers Very, VERY valid point, and yeah, I don’t use my laser at all, really - it functions as tacticool decor more than anything else. I forgot to mention it’s a laser+flashlight module, with a function to switch on either or both, and so I always basically use the flashlight and nothing else.
- Comment on Does anyone know where or even IF I can purchase this scope mount part? 3 weeks ago:
I really like it, and yeah, you were close! It’s a 32mm non-illuminated scope with a 3x-9x variable zoom. And it is in fact meant for .22LR - I picked it up brand new for a measly 250 PLN (~$60)
Granted, I rarely, if ever, use the higher zooms, because neither my MP5 or my cheap sniper rifle are accurate enough to make use of that kind of magnification.
And that prism sight looks real nice! I don’t mind having a basic scope, since I’ve gotten quite decent at hip firing at close range, so I’d rather have the added power a scope like that provides.
And since you’ve shared your build, I’ll share mine, in my dingy old garage back when I was cleaning it.
That’s one’s without the foregrip and the laser module attached. It’s quite literally a poor man’s G3, but hey, as long as it works.

Kinda ashamed that I never thought about just getting scope rings! I’ll definitely look into those. Thanks for the Locktite tip!

That actually looks really close! I’ll take a better look at it when I get back home next weekend. Thanks!

While we’re talking about tower defence, I really recommend the Gemcraft series! IMO probably the best tower defence games out there. Chasing Shadows and Frostborn Wrath are both on Steam, and I highly recommend them.

can confirm that it’s a constant sine wave, at least for me.
i blew myself up by accident a month ago, and while my left ear has fully recovered my right one wasn’t so lucky. lost all hearing above like 10kHz (which isnt really noticeable, especially with my left ear still being good on frequencies), and i also now have some very minor tinnitus there. ironically if i had to guesstimate the frequency of my tinnitus it would be around 12 kHz, which is past my hearing range, though it can change briefly because of external stimuli.
- Comment on Anon watches some reruns 2 months ago:
I’ve always wondered - do we know what is actually the cause of this?
I’ve had this happen before in similar circumstances as the post but way less severe, and I always figured it was because the brain’s “processing speed” increased, allowing it to process a bigger quantity of information per unit of time, but I don’t think that would make sense given that entering this state usually needs you to be hella tired?

it really does seem like it, though at least it doesn’t get worse on multi-language setups, which i thought would happen but thankfully didn’t (at least for me)

As a native speaker I use jedzie in the context of boats embarassingly often. It doesn’t really make a difference in casual settings since you get the message across anyway, but of course you wouldn’t say that in any formal situation.
- Comment on **SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT** 4 months ago:
the
overflow
property in HTML controls what happens in a given element when its contents extend past the element’s boundaries, in other words when the contents overflow.Overflow has 4 possible values (AFAIK):
visible
,scroll
,auto
, andhidden
, where:visible
does not clip the content and lets it extend past the parent element,scroll
clips the content and adds a scrollbar so that the user can see the rest of the content,auto
adds a scrollbar only when necessary,and
hidden
clips the content that extends past the parent and doesn’t add a scrollbar.Some paywalled/loginwalled sites load all of the article content regardless of whether the wall is up or not, so when a paywall pops up you can just go into the Inspect tool (usually
CTRL+SHIFT+I
) and delete the element containing the paywall, and/or, as some_random_nick said, change the article container’soverflow
property fromhidden
toscroll
, letting you see all of the content - Comment on Can't throw me off the scent 4 months ago:
Damn, that’s interesting! Also just realised I forgot that pulsars are a type of neutron star
- Comment on Can't throw me off the scent 4 months ago:
Given that even 3 T is already considered a large amount of flux, would it be even possible for an object with 10 billion Tesla to even exist? And if so, what would it take to achieve that amount of flux? Does a neutron star or a pulsar* get even remotely close?
* - pulling these examples kinda out of my ass – while i’m sure neutron stars have extreme magnetic fields i’m not so sure about pulsars

Oh, right. Yeah, I could do that. Thanks!
- Comment on How do I search for this part? 5 months ago:
That’s a pretty good idea actually. I’ll first try an actual extension to see if it will truly be as bad as you describe, and if it will be, I’ll just make a wedge. Thanks!
- Comment on How do I search for this part? 5 months ago:
Unfortunately no. The swivel range gets severely reduced when I invert the mount, stopping with the camera pointing basically upwards at the mount’s farthest point.
Searching “GoPro mount extension” did bring up what I wanted though, so thank you!
