  1. Took a new guy that can shoot. He used my backup gun and did well. My new rifle became problematic and almost became imbedded in the tree I wanted to wrap it around. 22 hogs in hand. We were light 7 to 10 pigs due to my rifle identifying as a paperweight. Didn't get in a knife fight with a pig this time.
  2. I work with a system. There is a lot of things you can't do. It's impossible. Absolutely no way. What they don't expect is when I change the parameters of the question. You can't change logs for example. I show them the very colorful language in the logs and then ask them how a very expensive piece of equipment has an opinion on Joe Biden. I'm a very difficult person to deal with. LOL I've also used equipment from one manufacturer to control equipment from a different manufacturer. I've had the engineers standing there telling me it can't be done as I'm demonstrating how it works. He was stunned. Looked at me and said that's impossible. Someone programmed it to purge data. They can program in not to purge data, or change it to purge once a decade. Someone told it a case has to be attached to the plate. That sounds easy to get around. Tell it that that rule is no longer valid. Attach your target plate to a random case then remove it. Put the thing in test mode I can promise you that some people already know how to get around it. I've buddied up to engineers and programmers just enough for them to slip up and tell me something they shouldn't. LOL. At that point it's "let the games begin". There's been no telling how many software updates and equipment redesigns I've caused. They may be the best thing out there. They may save lives. They will solve crimes. Just don't tell they can't be abused. People will find a way. By the way, it's part of my job to expose the weaknesses of a widget. They fix anything I can find. Nothing in malicious, but I do have fun with it, and I hope it's saved people from harm. None of this is in an area that can violate someone's rights either.
  3. Should be a law. Mandatory 10 years in prison for anyone misusing data from cameras or readers. If you can't abuse the technology, all LEOs and politicians should be on-board.
  4. T ️ 3 days till Texas
  5. I use TGO as an example, but I know LEOs have friended people on Facebook so that the could obtain evidence. With out going into detail, I'll just say it got Federal quickly. Humans love to tell on themselves.
  6. The ATF gets a guy to get on TGO and look at the guns for sale section. When they see sold and it's the same guy over and over, he'll get a visit. Now multiply that by every gun forum. Also Facebook has a bunch of empty gun boxes for sale that end up selling for $600-$700.
  7. The number 1 thing to realize is that your family will be in a better financial position if you are shot and killed than if you successfully defend yourself.
  8. "Can't be abused" LOL
  9. https://powdersvalley.com/ https://brownellsarms.com/
  10. They had one where a large hole was cut into the side of the building.
  11. Now just imagine one of the guns used in a crime. ATF shows up wanting to know who purchased the gun. FGS give them your name because it's on the 4473, but officer...I didn't purchase that firearm. What do you think FGS would have said? I do wonder what happened to the "hundreds" of guns.
  12. It's been hard not to talk about this one.
  13. I know one.
  14. I get trash I have to pick up because of people taking stuff to the dump several miles down the road. Sometimes it's an entire bag. I will always go through it. If I find an address, I unload their garage and everything else I've collected. I don't leave it in the bag though. If it's deer season, they get something extra.
  15. Sealed up all the lights and the vent. Used a leaf blower on the soffits to make sure they were clear after.
  16. The 900 square foot I did yesterday stayed the same temperature as the rest of the house last night. So far so good.
  17. Well, I can't say that part of the house does have enough insulation now. If anyone ever falls in, they will be lost forever. It's 2 foot minimum everywhere.
  18. Killed a 10 pt yesterday. Had a really nice 9 walk 30 yards from me today. Got to watch him for 20 minutes. I'm hoping I didn't see my target deer in the neighbor's truck this afternoon .
  19. We got a bill today that reflected the cost of defective water heater. Definitely see a difference. Just one bill though. It was $340. The weather was nice that 30 days. I've replaced the incandescent can lights with LEDs in the part of the house I plan on putting insulation in. I did not want to build boxes around the old lights. I have enough insulation to do 1300 square feet sitting in the living room. It's going in tomorrow. Did an experiment with downstairs wood stove. I basically left the door open. This is something I can't do with my youngest Daughter home. I kept the stove at 550°. After an hour I had to close the door halfway. 8 hours and the heater never came on. Probably going to get a vented door or a vent with a fan above the door. The fan motor is about 20 watts. I can't run the stove every day, but 3 days a week would be easy.
  20. I've recently renegotiate my work schedule. I work the same amount of hours, but now I'm off the same amount of days that I work. It's given me time to look at things I didn't have time for. I'm finding the problems slowly. We adopted 3 kid several years ago. They are all three meet the definition of "special needs", but one is severely handicapped, one is 40% , and one is 30%. They were/are taking up most of our time. I've pretty much adopted a 4th. He is normal and an outstanding individual. He's the only person I've ever recommended at work in 25 years. They immediately hired him. The upstairs ac unit is controlled by the kids. Kids who close all of the doors. The thermostat is in the hallway. The hallway that doesn't have vents. That's being addressed. The insulation is not what I want it to be. That's being fixed this weekend. Talked to the oldest kid. He wants to help with the installation and cost of insulation. He also wants to help with bills, but the Wife is hesitant. Every dollar he saves goes towards a home, but he's doing well working with me. We are going to have the power company check and see if the problem is on their end or the meter. I'm on vacation this week, so I'm having plenty of panic attacks. LOL
  21. I've used it to locate studs in the wall. LOL
  22. I found one problem with the hot water heater. I had 2, but they were not split systems. They were fighting each other so one was doing nothing but eating electricity. It's been disconnected and capped of. Not hot water issues yesterday or today. 60% of the main floor isn't installed in the crawl space. The other 40% stays cooler so I'm going to check the insulation in that roof section. It's floor is insulated. The wood stove downstairs is below that part. Downstairs gets to 80° with the stove, but I get very little benefit other then a warm chimney going up the center of the house. Probably going to vent that hot air to the main floor. Testing that today.
