mostly youtube channels and online webcomics (xkcd my beloved), although there is the occassional podcast (none of which I have listened to)

I’ll start tanning some hide right away!

Thank you, I guess it helps to put things into perspective when it comes to pricing. I always try to get stuff second-hand, but then it becomes a struggle to grab anything before anyone else! And then there’s sizing on topnof that. I should probably look into tailoring or alterations.

Thank you :) One of the harder parts about finding things that last is that small businesses don’t have many many millions of marketing behind them, which makes it a big struggle to find them.

do you know good methods of finding this?

Finally, the witch-gnome war has come to it’s inevitable conclusion.

heads or tails?

thank you for the reccomendation! seems like a very useful website :)

So about 336 and 420 a week, respectively

When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs every morning to help me get large. And now that I’m grown I eat five dozen eggs, so I’m roughly the size of a barge.

Maybe I’ve just been skimming over things, but doesn’t the sub only really provide guides for sizing? Personally, I’m asking for advice on material, and being able to appraise pieces that will have a longer lifecycle, y’know, sustainability and cost effectiveness and all :)

also no, you will not be forgiven

I’m trying, okay, I am!

Oh, no, I can access it, it’s just that it seems to include a map of auctions, but due to not being in the US, visiting them isn’t really an option.

I generally try to stay pretty terse in regards to information, but I think that leaving it general could be quite helpful, as it would invite a larger diversity of reccomendations that people in future could benefit from.

is there a difference between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ military surplus stores? the ones I’ve seen appear to be replicas, or clearly not local surplus, which causes me some concern

also streaming services tend not to have comments, which can halt discussion, though that can be remedied with forums, like how youtube creators used to post their stuff to subreddits

I don’t know about an alternative per se, as youtube’s whole thing is user generated content, which means alternative-wise PeerTube and it’s ilk are more fitting, though far lacking in the depth, breadth, and wealth of content found on the former. Nebula is almost the opposite of that, being a more curated catalogue of content in exchange for being a paid service. Note, I myself don’t have Nebula yet, but I do use something similar (Dropout.tv) Ultimately I think they’re just fundamentally different use cases, and fit more like an alternative to streaming services than youtube including the faults that come with not having a massive multinational company backing them for years, as does PeerTube.

thank you for the clarification :)

seems a useful site. shame it’s US-only by the looks of it, though.

How are they for high temperatures?

truly? huh, TIL. Guess it isn’t quite so versatile a tool tho :P
