THANKS! I just bought Fallout 4 using this link you gave. You saved me about $30.00. :smiley_joy: The game was going for $59.00 just two weeks ago. I already owned the other ones in that bundle that I would buy.

I wanna create a thread about Subnautica, but I'm still far too busy playing it. :P Expect a considerably sizable post once I'm finally done though. :)

I just got into it myself in VR, and it's such an awesome game! You can get caught up and spend hours in that game without realizing it. :)

I just managed to build my first Cyclops two days ago, but my first voyage with it was a failure. Yesterday I tried again and succeeded in my mission. My next step is to expand the second base I started at just below 800 meters below sea level.

and slacking on the trivia as a result

random thought - it would be interesting to see what 'lights up' the brain more on a MRI; playing trivia or video games

How are you gonna play a video game during an MRI scan?

any idea what graphite/carbon logs are used for? i have been seeing them around here on trucks since i was a little kid and have never got a straight answer

several places around here still produce them for whoever uses them. used to be all the factories around here made carbon and graphite until they switched to powdered metal

they are about a foot in diameter and about 10 - 12 ft long with some type of rounded cap at one end and a flat cap at the other. and, of course, they are the same black/dark grey color as the graphite in a pencil

i've gotten answers on their use ranging from making steel, to used in electric substation, to used in nuke plants

cant seem to find the right search term to find anything on google either

I think it might have something to do with power generation somehow. Does that help? :P

It sounds like you are describing graphite moderator rods. They are used along with control rods in a nuclear reactor.

so @Overmind One , yet more FB pics you can see!!! :smiley_joy:

i am guessing that the reasons you said before only applies(maybe) to videos and not stills?

didn't you also say before that we could only be able to post websites that were https and no http?

that is also not hard and fast. i have gotten a few http links posted

there is a ghost in the machine :hide;
