It's a 4x8 walk-in closet. It's going to be my new hobby/streaming/gaming room. If it wants to come out or need to come out, it can.
The closet is currently used to house random junk and boxes, so it needs to be repurposed. To be honest, if I could fit a bed in there, I would rather sleep in it.

Pre-ordered the Armored Core 6 Model kits. Only ordered the 2 Armored Cores. I didn't really want the extra weapon packs they were selling.

I've been trying to be a good boy and not buy/pre-order any more till I've built 85% of the ones I have, but I had to. I guess it's why they call it plastic crack in the gunpla community.

You using any co2? I started making diy co2 for my shrimp tank and the plants are grown great.
No, just the airstone. We chose low maintenance plants for this tank, that don't need extra CO2 and they're doing great so far. But I might cobble something together for the second tank, because we got some carpeting grass thing and it could use some CO2 probably.

Yeah, I get it. I'm just doing it to help some carpet plants grow some more. It's been 3 weeks now, and I can tell the plants are definitely benefiting from it.

Honestly, I usually just do anubias nana petite, java ferna and Java moss or flame moss, but I added some more plants that don't require co2 but benefit from it.
Plus I only added it cause the diy co2 was extremely easy to do.

Not sure how you're getting these packages. Perhaps you've been in a "brushing" scam no?

Here's a bit more insight: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-54055669

I don't think so because the parcel numbers and order ID on the package are the same on the items I did order, Think is more a way to try to avoid the restrictions on batteries, you can not ship a stand alone battery, you need a Sarcophagus to ship the battery and the smallest one cost 500 USD. But if the battery is part of a electronic device can be shipped with out problem.

So I think they put inside the case of a toy to emulate a electronic device with battery and not be rejected at the customs services.

But thanks for the info, will have a eye on it.

    @K3Nv2, afaik yeah but I also don't think that it runs on home grade routers like openwrt/dd-wrt does. OPNsense runs on full-on x86 PC hardware

    Sadly openwrt seems to be dying for support unless it's just. Anew name
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    idk, I mean it had a new release back in March https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/releases
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not sure how recent hardware it supports though
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    eventually this desktop is going to act as a server too, just for the hell of it. Because this PC is WAY fucking overkill for how little I use it.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    And once I do that, my desktop OS that I interact with is just going to be a virtual machine and use GPU passthrough to connect everything
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Send it to me ffs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
