Title: Completely Random Smurf with Aleph
Post by: AlephZero on May 14, 2016, 05:18:44 PM
Hey fellow MTOers, in this thread I will post some random thoughts about things that may or may not include:

 - Tools
 - Cycling
 - Computers
 - Heavy Metal
 - Books
 - Movies
 - TV
 - Vaping
 - Something completely different
 - 42

Stay tuned.

Fact of the day: There are exactly 187,888 lakes (larger than 500 m²) and 179,584 islands within the territory of Finland. Both are world records.

I got so annoyed about the noise my computer's processor fan was making, so I decided to get a new cooler. Of course I had to go way over the top so I got this:

(http://www.scythe-eu.com/uploads/tx_cfamooflow/top_02.jpg)

Scythe Mugen Max, 720 grams of metal + 140mm fan... I mean if it's worth doing, it's worth overdoing, right?

Found out that sometimes bigger is NOT better (or at least easier)! :facepalm:

Took me better part of two hours to install it, because having shovels for hands is not actually helpful when putting big metal things inside your computer case...

Anyways,  the comp is quite silent now, so I guess it's a victory.

On a completely unrelated note...

Any of you follow the Giro d'Italia? I'm a big cycling freak myself, and after the Classics, Giro has always been real start of the season for me.

This time I'm glad seeing that my favorite Andre Greipel is doing really well, two stage victories already :)

Another fact of the day: This year marks the 97th Giro d'Italia

I had the same problem a decade or so ago, so I installed this jet turbine thing from Cooler Master.  It looked kind of like this:

(http://smg.photobucket.com/user/miltie/media/CoolerMaster_AERO4_Lite_Fan_only.gif.html)

The fan was ducted so that it sucked air in both ends and exhausted it through the heat sink.  Or the other way around, I don't recall.

So, I'm a bit of a history geek (especially ancient Rome and Greece), and today I just got thinking...
If you count all the years from the founding of Rome in 753BC to the fall of Byzantine Empire (East Rome) in 1453AD it gives us 2206 years.

That is a mind blowing number, I mean, the Roman Nation (in form of Kingdom, Republic, Empire and Byzantium) lasted over two millennia. Puts our own time in quite a different perpective, don't you think?

As I just started two weeks of vacation I took the bike for a short spin today, and decided to bring the camera with...

This tower sits on the roadside close by, although I haven't got the faintest idea of it's function:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0125.jpg)

Riding along the rails:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0129.jpg)

Revisit the old trainyard :):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0131.jpg)

Closer look at the building at the trainyard:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0133.jpg)

To my surprise someone had parked this beautiful old "Lättähattu" (meaning "Flat Hat") passenger train here:
(more info on the train here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VR_Class_Dm7)
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0134.jpg)

Some old rail cars:

And lastly this old fantastic orange post car  :D:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0137.jpg)

It was really short spin around, I hope the weather stays nice so I can do this more :D

Fact of the day: For every human on earth there is 1.6 million ants... however, the weight of those ants is about the same as the humans.

Another completely unrelated fact: Models of current Valtra tractors are A, N, T and S.

As of a side note, there used to be a street performer in the city I lived in before, who did this absolutely amazing version of Hotel California, and I (usually when absolutely off my face) used to stop by and listen to his stuff and tipped him few euros.

Mail day!  :mail:  :ahhh  :drool:  :D

Mailman dropped me a package today, and in that package...

...was this, CRKT Folding Razel:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/DSCN0143.jpg)

It has nice sturdy blade:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/DSCN0147.jpg)

Quite good sized folder (Blade 8.5cm and overall length 20cm):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/DSCN0148.jpg)

The liner lock seems sturdy and works well. Also showing the pocket clip which allows nice deep pocket carry:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/DSCN0156.jpg)

Top view showing the LAWKS safety lock lever:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/DSCN0152.jpg)

I have been :drool: after this knife for a while now (everyone know I'm a sucker for quirky tools ;)) so when I found it on eBay for 30 euros /w postage, I immediatelly pulled the trigger. Haven't had chance to use it much yet, but I'm sure it will deliver without problems.

Here's few snaps I've taken lately with my cellphone...

Fall colors on the main street of my town :)

Old train engine came to say hi at the old station (I ride past the station every day on my commute):

As I just started two weeks of vacation I took the bike for a short spin today, and decided to bring the camera with...

This tower sits on the roadside close by, although I haven't got the faintest idea of it's function:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0125.jpg)

Riding along the rails:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0129.jpg)

Revisit the old trainyard :):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0131.jpg)

Closer look at the building at the trainyard:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0133.jpg)

To my surprise someone had parked this beautiful old "Lättähattu" (meaning "Flat Hat") passenger train here:
(more info on the train here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VR_Class_Dm7)
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0134.jpg)

Some old rail cars:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0135.jpg)

And lastly this old fantastic orange post car  :D:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/28052016/DSCN0137.jpg)

It was really short spin around, I hope the weather stays nice so I can do this more :D

Well with some Internet tomfoolery I finally figured out that that tower is actually an old steam engine water tower... You live and learn :)

Some more Mongolian epicness, well inner Mongolia anyways...

Mongolian folk music mixed with orchestral metal, by a group called Hanggai, in a show which seems sort of like "The Voice of China" or somesort...

(Sorry for the bad pics...)

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20161210_115259.jpg)

Anyways, when I got it, I thought I'd like a holster of some sort for it. So, I had couple of these cheap pistol mag pouches I originally got for holding energy bars or batteries or w/e..

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20161210_115413.jpg)

So, I ripped up the bottom, stitched back the sides so the whole thing wouldn't unravel, added some paracord to hold the rubbery plastic cover that covers the sharp tip of the Annihilator, and hey presto...

Language lessons with Aleph: Lesson 101 - Finnish has some ridiculous words that are nigh impossible to translate to English


Case in point: Epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydellänsäkään

According to the Guinness Book of  World Records, this is the longest non-compound word in Finnish language...


...It is also utter and complete nonsense...


I will now TRY to decipher it into English...  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

Ok folks, some of you may know I ride my bike (the pedal powered kind) everywhere, but to be honest
the morning commute is not as fun as it used to be and I'd generally like to get around faster so...

Since my spring bonuses are coming, I decided that an E-bike is in my future :)

So, the mailman dropped by for a visit....  :mail:

My first order from Multitool.org Store arrived!  :ahhh

Can you guess what's inside? ;) :

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_191622.jpg)

LM Crater C33TX!:

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_191655.jpg)

I've really been wishing to get a C33B, but since it's discontinued, I went for this model:

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_191842.jpg)

It's a nice little knife, I like how it looks:

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_191931.jpg)

The blade is combo variety (maybe not the optimal choice, but oh well), nice and sharp out of the box:

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_192015.jpg)

The rest, pocket clip, flat screwdriver and philips screwdriver (I forgot the carabiner out of the photo :facepalm: ):

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/20170327_192115.jpg)

Easy to open and close one handed even with the shovels I have for hands  :ahhh

Well, this is it, folks... I finally did it...  :mail:

So, the postman was kind enough to bring THIS one in...
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/IMG_20170419_192617.jpg)

 :o  :ahhh  :think:

Ooo, what is it I hear you ask...


Lo and behold! Varusteleka Terävä Skrama is here!
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/IMG_20170419_192646.jpg)

That smurfing thing is huge... The handle is like 1 1/2 hand grip, and I have shovels for hands :P



Description:
    Skrama - as in Scramasax or Seax, a short, single edged sword popular in the Middle Ages. Much like the Scandinavian Leuku it doubles up as a tool and weapon.
    A fine name is always nice and the best ones are those with some history behind them - our 21st century Skrama would surely meet the demands of any Saxon
    man from "ye good  olde days".

Some specs:
    Total length: 430 mm.
    Weight: 525 g (knife only).
    Blade: length 240 mm, width 46 mm, thickness 4,2 mm.
    Edge: 34° for chopping, 25° at the base for finer work.
    Steel: Carbon steel 80CrV2, 59 HRC
    Grip: Moulded rubber, rough texture for a good grip.

Full description and all details can be found here (I am not affiliated with the store in any way, except being a long time customer):

So, my E-bike arrived...  :mail:  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

However, I have no pics yet since it's smurfin' sleeting and raining outside   :-\

I have to say, however, first time riding an E-bike... It's something completely different ;)
At the lowest setting, it's just like pedaling is really easy, but then you have three more
power settings on it! On the higher settings, it really feels like someone is behind you
pushing you along!  8)

Now, mine is just electric-assist bike, and the assist is limited to 25 km/h as required
by Finnish law (higher powered E-bikes must be registered as mopeds), but that is
well enough for me for way ahead to the future :tu:

And trust me, there will be pics, as soon as there's proper weather to take 'em :D

Whats the ranges?
Probably should post this here too ;)

Not quite sure just yet, but I kinda calculated that it should run around 70km on full charge, I guess we will see how it goes  :)

The problem is, the official range calculations are for people under 85kg, not proper man size :D

So, me, being around 125kg, it's a bit hard to estimate how much the extra weight affects the range just yet, but I will let you know how much km's I get out of it  :salute:

I did install a rack on the E-bike today, pretty much first thing after I rode the bike home from work (I ordered the bike to work as we get DHL delivery twice a day :) )

Topeak Uni Super Tourist Disc DX (now that's a mouthful of a name ;) ):

(https://cdn.topeak.com/global/storage/app/media/_mediathumbs/product-racks-uni-super-tourist-dx-uni-super-tourist-dx-disc-93e74a308cd4336ded024de83b776862.jpg)

Not the easiest to install on your own, but it didn't take that long, would definitely be easier if a friend to hold it in place while screwing the various screws in... Used my Skeletool and Topeak Ratchet Rocket to install it, would have been a bit better if I had had a socket set instead of the Skele, but since no crazy torque was needed, the Skele held the nuts well enough :tu:

For more updates on my E-bike, check out The Cycling Thread (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,71711.msg1463490.html#msg1463490), really no point of posting everything twice now is there  ;)

As for other hijinks, be sure I'll be continuing to post random smurf every now and then  :cheers:

Ok, so I got the smurfin' huge phone, Oukitel K10000, what's better than getting equally huge belt pouch for it, right? ;)

So this thing is really smurfin big, it has a flap pocket for the phone (anything up to 5.7" they said, I had to stretch it a lil), small zippered pocket in the front, and huge zippered pocket in the back (which could easily with another K10000 :D ):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/2017-04-26%2020.09.37.jpg)

In the front pocket I keep the USB cables needed for charging other electronics off the K10000:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Forum/2017-04-26%2020.10.27.jpg)

Back pocket is a little roomier, right now I have a Ballograf pen, small Moleskine notebook, paired up Nitecore Tip and LM Micra, and a Böker prybar clone (and missing from the pic, a red and black spinner, just like the glow-in-the-dark one I have, just different color)

I do admit, the combination of everything is getting quite weighty, glad I have a sturdy belt keeping my pants up  :D

Well, the sun came out for a moment, so here are the promised pictures of my new electric steed  :D

Fellow MTOers, Ladies, Gentlemen & Kirky, I present thee... Cube Reaction Hybrid ONE!!!  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

Couple overview pics, and yes, it's bright blue and green, 'cause that's how I roll these days (http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Funny/083ae811-fe88-4e97-aab0-7e05417dca5a.png) :

(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-04-27%2017.32.38.jpg)


Little closer up to the battery pack (Bosch), which is 400 Watt Hours (around 11 Ah)
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-04-27%2017.33.10.jpg)


User interface, consisting of the display unit and the control unit on the left:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-04-27%2017.33.25.jpg)


Close-up of the motor (also Bosch)  and the drivetrain, 1x9 gears (Shimano):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-04-27%2017.33.57.jpg)


And finally another overview pic from the right hand side of the bike :) :
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-04-27%2017.34.21.jpg)

Hmm what else...

It sports hydraulic disc brakes, which work very well (Shimano Deore  BR-M315).

The saddle is quite comfortable even for so quite narrow one, made by Selle Italia.

Also showing the Abus Bordo 6000 lock and Topeak Uni Super Tourist DX Disc rear rack.

Not yet showing SKS Shockboard XL and SKS Velo 65 Mountain 29" fenders or Cube Cubestand CMPT kickstand, all of which I hope will arrive next week :)

Enjoy! :tu:

Oh and... Let's be careful out there!


Ride safe, ride smart, have fun!

I do like blue... and green...


Orange too, red is quite nice as well :D

But yes, on this bike, the color scheme is definitely blue and green  8)

For example, it didn't come with pedals, so I had to order a pair...

Naturally, I went with green pedals  ;)

So, I decided to do a little paracord wrap for the Skrama's sheath, and I think it came out quite nice...

(https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2857/33974599010_7d74bf65d8_k.jpg)












But wait, there is more... Added a Condor 4" MOD Strap and now I have a Molle compatible sheath for the Skrama :tu:

(https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2866/33516896294_2c84f2489f_k.jpg)

For some added security I first wrapped the strap onto the sheath with black electrical tape, and it seems to be quite secure now :)

I'm pretty pissed off smurf today...

Ok, so I got the kickstand for the E-bike today, it's a Cube kickstand, for Cube bikes, says on the description that it fits all Cube E-bikes, except full suspension ones.

It doesn't fit.

SMURFING SMURFSMURFING SMURF! :rant:

The bike has the special, I guess lug is the right word, for it, but it's too thick, no matter how hard I pushed it didn't go in and already damaged the paintwork.

No replacing it either as I voided the warranty already by trying to file it to fit  :-\

As far as I know, they only have that one type of connection for the kickstands, so that's 37e gone for good...
Title: Re: Completely Random Smurf with Aleph
Post by: AlephZero on May 03, 2017, 06:24:25 PM
Ok, a follow-up to yesterday's smurf-up (that's a word from now on 8) )...

Went and bought couple of files and with some 20 mins of careful filing, I managed to fit the kickstand on the bike and while it didn't go all the way in, it seems really solid. So not wasted 37e after all :)

Also installed the fenders, front one went in easy, back one needed some thinking and zip ties (who doesn't love zip ties ;) ) to stay off the tire, but as I took the bike for a spin around the block, I didn't hear and scratching noises, so another success I'd say  :cheers:

I hope sun will show up tomorrow, so I can take some pics for you guys.

The E-bike is now pretty much fully kitted, except for the light, but I don't need that until maybe October so no rush there...

Added front and rear fenders (SKS Shockboard XL and SKS Velo 65 Mountain 29"), and a kickstand (Cube Cubestand CMPT):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-05-042017.56.44.jpg)

Little improvisation was required as the support that came with the rear fender could not be used due to the fact that the lugs where it was supposed to be connected on the frame were already used for the rack.. so Zip ties to the rescue! :tu:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Bikes/2017-05-04%2017.56.59.jpg)

Cube's own Cubestand CMPT kickstand is quite sturdy, although installation was challenging to say the very least:

Did a little Sunday bike-trip to the neighboring town, about 25km round trip. Weather's not too bad, it's a bit chilly still, but it was quite nice for biking. I didn't have my camera with me, so only couple snaps were taken with the K10000...


Stopped by the marina, which unsurprisingly is still empty as Lake Keitele is still quite iced up...
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170507_153035.jpg)

... and thus, the boats are still in winter storage
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170507_153039.jpg)

Also stumbled upon old Valmet 565 tractor sitting on some house's lawn:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/4c191297-9426-4e8e-880d-e629652c2831.jpg)

Why is the old tractor interesting, you ask... Well for obvious reasons, it's beautiful piece of old machinery but also because it's an old product of my current employer, Valtra (the company name was changed to Valtra in 2001)  :)

All in all, the new E-bike is quite nice for longer distance riding as well, although, I'm wondering if I should get a little more comfortable saddle... The one that came with the bike is fine for commuting, but on a longer trip... at the end of the trip today, I was REALLY feeling all the bumps on the road :P

Did a little scouting mission to a location I might be having a "camping" trip of sorts...

Only a few photos, only had the phone with me...

Beginning the climb, it's about 2km in all, some of it quite steep:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170526_134339.jpg)

About half way:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170526_134708.jpg)

At the top of Kirppuvuori (literally Flea Mountain :D ), alas the top of the hill has been logged clean. The view isn't too bad though, lake Keitele in the background:
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170526_135407.jpg)

On the way back down, I came up from the left road, going down on the right one (very steep, hence no photos):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170526_135705.jpg)

Another lakeview, lake Suojärvi (smallish, about 1km long):
(http://i737.photobucket.com/albums/xx12/CaineKitty/Photos/IMG_20170526_140357.jpg)


That was quite nice little scouting trip, now I just have to plan for a full on excursion with all the gear and proper camera...  :cheers:

Edit to add that since there is some much discarded twigs and branches on the hilltop, I doubt I need to carry any for my wood burning stove :D

Random fake fact of the day: Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn’t wear pants.

Complete and utter bullsmurf, Donald Duck comic was first published in 1951 and it's not only the most popular comic in Finland,
but Finland also has world's largest edition of per capita of a Donald Duck magazine.

Minor fact: I just cancelled my order of the magazine last december ;)

Got a question about your decision to get a Garberg. Did you consider other knives or was it love at first sight? Since you got that Skrama it has me wondering because a lot of people are touting the Jakkaripukkoo (hope I spelled that right) as a direct contender to the Garberg

It was pretty much love at first sight, and the same with the Skrama... Jääkäripuukko is just another Finnish puukko, a good one, but nothing special there to appeal to me. :shrug:

My interests often go after the unusual items, I guess I have the need to be different :D

Edit: I do also have one of these, Taiter Hukari (http://www.taiter.fi/hukariknife.html)

(http://www.taiter.fi/kuvat/vinoristi-1462-kirkas.jpg)

Couldn't find it for a pic, hence the loaned pic from the maker (will look for mine soon)  :cheers:

"I must not follow MTO.
 MTO is the wallet-killer.
 MTO is the death of my bank account that brings total bankcruptcy.
 I will face the MTO.
 I will permit it to pass over me and through me (twice, as that's the MTO way).
 And when  has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
 Where MTO has gone there will be no money left. Only I will remain, poor."

The dark season is coming, which means I need to be seen while I bike to work.

So... I installed a few reflectors on the E-bike...  ;)

A Cateye front reflector on the basket, held on by a screw:

Couple of Busch & Muller red rear reflectors, zip tie installation:

And four Busch & Muller spoke reflectors (those were just click in types):
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4412/36463366400_ffa394d697_b.jpg)

If you ride in the dark, make sure you will be seen too!

Well, dark season begins a bit before winter, around half way into the October both morning and afternoon commute will be in the dark...

In the actual winter it won't even be that bad as the snow lights things up, but rainy fall is the worst, wet asphalt just eats up all the light, hence you need all the things you can have to make sure you'll be seen.

Ride safe, ride smart, have fun!

Schwalbe Ice Spiker Pro Performance:

(https://www.schwalbe.com/files/schwalbe/userupload/Images/Produkte/_2016/ice_spiker_pro/_detail_ice_spiker_pro.jpg)

400+ studs on each tire...

I've been using these for years, and they are extremely grippy on ice, on snow and decent on bare asphalt (except of the noise they make on it)

As far as I know, these are the BEST winter tires in existence :tu:

October 13th is (at least in Finland) the International Day for Failure, AKA The Fail Day!

 :o

 :-\

Happy failing everyone!


This complete failure of information brought to you by Completely Random Smurf with Aleph!

Wait, then...why did you not actually post something failed on Finnish Fail Day? I mean, and introduction like that and I was quietly leaning back to see what would come of the day. It passed without a whimper.
Not even a post, Like falling off your bike or painting over a window?
Or, did you just FAIL to post anything at all?

Now to to make things interesting I got two Wild Mages in my party: My PC, Alaerion, and Neera the NPC...


Just tonight, I was fighting some Xvarts at their village, so I ordered Neera to throw a Sleep spell on them... Instead she dropped Gate on us, a Nabassu demon promptly killed the whole party...  :rofl:

Moka pots give a more concentrated brew.
French press is more along the lines of flavour and convenience.
Both can make good coffee but that usually depends on the skills of the person making it.

Also, I think that with a french press, the finnished coffee is still in contact with the coffee powder. With this expresso maker, the coffee goes up into a separated part of the pot. It might be a little weaker but with less probability of having a powder deposit in the bottom of the pot.

Some people call it "Not only the best RPG, but the best GAME EVER"... And I tend to agree :D

You definitely should try it :tu:
You must be soooo young.

Best game EVER has to be Tetris, followed by Civilisation, followed by Monkey Island
Best RGB, yeah its good but nowhere near Lands of Lore... but by far the best RPG EVER is Eternam.

Did you play Commander Keen? Did you play Digger? Did you play Triplane? Did you play this and that... It all happens  :think:

So, I got Sanrenmu LAND 9046 folder few days ago, and well... It's quite similar to the CRKT Folding Razel:

(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4689/25651006618_4105ec849c_c.jpg)

Even to the point, that they copied the LAWKS lock system:
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4739/39522066301_bb732f2194_c.jpg)

Both are beefy sons of smurfs:
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4598/38626098725_c413703926_c.jpg)

I guess in both cases, the sturdy as smurf blade is the selling point:
(https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4645/39491641692_384e631245_c.jpg)

The Sanrenmu knife also has a cord/belt cutter on the backside, liner locked like the main blade

Now, the CRKT Folding Razel cost me like 30e, the Sanrenmu knife... about 13e, not a bad deal  :tu:

Facepalm of the day: Why is lightning considered a plasma? (https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/83536/why-is-lightning-considered-a-plasma)

Now, the question itself is just fine, except the person asking it has no idea what plasma is...

"I was wondering why a lightning bolt is coined as "plasma", or a "spark" from an electrical wire/device is as well, yet flares, molten lava, and burning buildings are not(flares are pyrotechnic, exothermic, and very much like flames).

I hear arguments saying that plasma is ionized gas, but how can a flare not be ionized at such high temperature(and why isn't ionized, very hot flames considered plasma)?

This guy, the top answerer, says that fire is not plasma because it's not ionized:

Is fire plasma?

Also, some lava exceeds 3,000 Fahreheit. How is that not plasma, and what draws the fine line between plasma and fire itself(not as a state of matter, but as a relation with gas)?

Fire is gas, but some say it's plasma if you can see it (check the link the poster added below in the first comment), so when does it become a full-on plasma if it's not normally one?"


 :facepalm:

I mean seriously?!? Sure, I took ALL the physics and chemistry classes in high school, but really? It's not THAT difficult... is it?

 :think:

I'm a sad panda right now...   :-\

Regarding plasma, I've pulled this from the wiki:

Plasma is the point where an ionised gaseous substance becomes increasingly electrically conductive, and long-range electromagnetic fields dominate the behavior of the matter.

That makes me think... tools are not for everyone...

So apparently, Tir Na Nóg is a place of the old Irish gods, Tuatha Dé Danann..

Now what I read, says Tuatha Dé Danann means the "Tribe of Dana"

And for those who are still wondering, the symbol on the QM is stylized letter Aleph from Hebrew alphabet. I chose
it because of its use in mathematics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleph_number

Aleph-zero (also Aleph-naught, or Aleph-null) is cardinality of the set of natural numbers.

Fact of the day: The international area code for Antarctica is 672.

The lowest natural temperature ever directly recorded at ground level on Earth is −89.2 °C (−128.6 °F; 184.0 K) at the Soviet Vostok Station in Antarctica on July 21, 1983 by ground measurements.

Continuing on Antarctic stuff...

Four volcanoes make up the Ross Island: Mount Terror, Mount Erebus, Mount Bird, and Mount Terra Nova.

The name Antarctica is the romanised version of the Greek compound word ἀνταρκτική (antarktiké), feminine of ἀνταρκτικός (antarktikós), meaning "opposite to the Arctic", "opposite to the north"

Do wasps and hornets ever sting for no reason?

And I mean NO reason.
So no swatting them, no sudden movements etc...

People usualy flee away around me when they see a wasp.
I usualy gently "push" them away with a slow hand gesture and I never got stung so far.

In my experience, no.

But the so-called lemonade wasps are much more likely to sting than hornets, if only because these come in close contact with humans more often.

Yes. Afraid without reason, people do the stupidest things.

I got stung once, when unwittingly disturbing a nest. What happens is, the first wasp to sting releases a feromone marking you as a threat, causing other wasps to attack as well.

Random fact of the day...

Squirrels usually forget the place where they have put their acorns, which is one of the reasons for thousands of new trees every year. Tree squirrels are important animals that help plant thousands of oak trees because they store the acorns in the ground. They practically plant oak trees. Squirrels play a crucial role in maintaining and regenerating the oak forests and may be the ones responsible for the vast forests of oak trees in the North America.

Even though it's physically larger than the old K10000, it's actually 50g lighter  :)

Better specs, 11000mAh battery instead of 10000mAh, blah blah blah  :D

It's a huge black monolith and I love it for that  ::)

I'll get better pics some time...

Most of the last few songs are variations of the same song, Informer by Snow, which I loved when it came out in 1992..

So I kinda went on youtube frenzy when I figured out that not only there was this Daddy Yankee version with Snow even collaborating,
but also Katy Perry had made a remix version of that and then I found out that Snow himself made a new version in 2018...

And in the midst of all that I was pointed to an arabic song that was using the same melody...

Talk about blast from the past, huh?  :cheers:

So yeah, party on!  :D

Well to keep the story short...

Until spring 2016, i had had the R.A.T. 7 for like 7 or 8 years, last 2 of them with a broken microswitch on the middle button...  ::)

SO I wanted to get a new one, but of course the company went under so I got Logitech G700s instead  :-\

Until just now, I got brand new R.A.T. 8+, virtually identical to the R.A.T. 7 except for the 16000 dpi sensor and the RGB lights...

The main reason is, no mouse ever has fit my hand as well as the R.A.T., be that 7 or 8+  :)

I miss the old fps type gaming.
Last I played seriously was probably L4D2?
Then the kids got older and got more priority of time.

Unreal, Wolfenstein, Quake and Doom were all finished in their time. only FarCry is still a white whale, but that was more due to specs required. I'll rectify that soon

Bro, I tell you, you will love Far Cry, it is an amazing game still  :cheers:

Wasn't a Far Cry person. Played some on pc and console but just didn't get hooked. Halo was another like that.
I went from consoles to pc but a lot of the people around me stayed on consoles or started playing LoL.

Random fact time!

"Giant squid and some other large squid species maintain neutral buoyancy in seawater through an ammonium chloride solution which is found throughout their bodies and is lighter than seawater. This differs from the method of flotation used by most fish, which involves a gas-filled swim bladder. The solution tastes somewhat like salmiakki and makes giant squid unattractive for general human consumption." - Wikipedia

Something feels right about the world at the moment...  :rofl:

Also I have to note: Thank god these creatures do not live anywhere near Finland... They would have been hunted to extinction by now!

Yeah, really, I started listening to Metallica around 92-93, first the Black Album, then gradually Master of Puppets, And Justice for All and the rest...

So maybe little over 25 years actually  :P

Fun fact for today:

Cutlery is sometimes called "weapons" in Finnish.

E.g. "Could you get the weapons, please?" = "Could you get the knives and forks, please?"

Note that this only applies to knives and forks, never to spoons.

Thank you.

This rather warlike piece of random information was brought to you by Completely Random Smurf with Aleph!

Perhaps it came from my grandad being an aircraft mechanic in the war.  :think:

Randomness of the day: "New car smell"

"Few odors are as pleasing as "new car smell"—and not just because it's nice to be in a brand new car. But while the scent may be strangely satisfying, the fact is that it's pretty much just a combination of 50+ chemicals (known as "volatile organic compounds") that are released into the car, decaying quickly over time. The concentrations found in a typical new car aren't dangerous, but among the VOCs that make up much of that new car smell are those found in nail polish, auto fuel, and petroleum."
-  Quoted from https://bestlifeonline.com/random-fun-facts/

On the other hand, we have "off-gassing" or "out-gassing":

"Off-gassing (also known as out-gassing) refers to the release of airborne particulates or chemicals—dubbed volatile organic compounds (VOCs)—from common household products. Potential sources of off-gassing range from construction materials to carpeting, cabinetry, furniture, paint, and any number of household goods. Some of the most common chemicals off-gassed from household items include formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, and toluene. While off-gassing can be easily identified by so-called “new car” and “new carpet” smells, it can also be odorless." -  Quoted from https://www.custommade.com/blog/off-gassing/

So, in one case it's cosindered a pleasant or even desired thing, but on the other, it is considered harmful, unpleasant, even disgusting or dangerous...

But, you know, it's that new car smell...  :dunno:

I think some people are way too fixated on their vehicles.

We humans also release VOCs but they don´t smell like a new car :D
