I've heard good things about these games, so looking forward to giving them a go!
 
Was looking for design inspiration on Yahoo Auctions last night and came across these stickers for 100 JPY each, couldn't help myself. Supertourers is my favourite motorsports period, and I had been looking for a complete set of JGTC weight ballast stickers for awhile, after picking up a 1999 10kg one awhile back.

Auto Senri Signal sticker of the JTCC Corolla they campaigned for the 1995 season

Autosport Magazine commemoration stickers, 777th and 800th issue respectively-

Also been really curious by Swifts lately, so had to do the necessary:

I did a similar with stickers.
Because your everyday folk don’t read English here and I couldn’t find any stickers in Thai so I thought I’d go full JDM style.

I think it gets the message across.
 
Apparently someone didn't appreciate my choice of literature:

Ordered another one and the next few in the series.

First car (also first new), first turbo, first DCT, first a lot of things. Bought out; owe nobody any money.

Also would say is a full-on commitment to being more grown up now that I've never been this broke and have extra living expenses to budget.

Feeling pretty good about this milestone achievement.
 
I’ve been thinking about taking up drums lately.
Noise was my main concern until I saw this set up of yours.
Can you provide a link to the company that makes them? Much appreciation.

I rented it from the place my son is taking his bass lessons from so not mine. For $40 it was worth a test to see if we'd like to buy one or not. Based on how much they're using it, probably not.

Moving on, it's a KAT kt2. Having not played drums in about 10 years and having never played an electric set, the kt2 has it limitations. The symbols are a bit iffy on if they register you've hit them and the high hat pedal is simply an on/off switch so you can't lift to open it during the beat. Other than that, it works alright and is certainly quieter than the real deal. They sound pretty good over my headphones, you can connect your phone to play along with music and I've cobbled together a way to connect them to the theater room. :lol:
 
Tickets I bought ages ago but never posted, graphics card I bought tonight.

My 780Ti died last weekend so I've been searching for something good to replace it with. It's probably massive overkill but it cost a little bit less than the refurbished Strix 1080 I'm currently borrowing from work would cost me to buy, so it was a no-brainer - especially considering another 1080 Ti I had my eye on ended up going for $1110. I noped out of bidding on that one once it hit its original buy now of $1100 (it started at $950), this one was listed for $850 no reserve and $950 buy now. I was more than happy to drop $950 on one of these and I needed a card, so I did the thing.

I also have these to look forward to in three weeks:

Don't regret it that you didn't buy the massive overpriced and less than superfast RTX2080Ti?
 
Good heavens, it would take me three years to eat all those nuts.
 
€115 for 5 kg organic cashew nuts. I have a lot of money too but not too much unfortunately.

It took me a few weeks to consume 2.5kg cashew nuts. :embarrassed:

I don't only eat these raw, I also use cashew nuts to make a delicious creamy vegetable or mushroom sauce. :bowdown:
