I didn’t know about Alba before but after doing some reading I’m really liking their vintage watch lines. I wish I had paid more attention to the buckets of “as-is” watches in the markets.

Exactly! The speaker sounds like crap, but it may need a thorough cleaning when I get back home.

Iceland is quite beautiful, I didn’t camp but I recall the park areas being quite fierce about not venturing off of walking paths to protect sensitive things like moss that take forever to grow. That may be a reason why they don’t allow dispersed camping. I’d say still go, it was beautiful in the winter and I didn’t find it too crowded or unbearably cold.

If you like to talk to tomatoes…

I was new to a school and decided to skip class with a bunch of classmates I barely knew. One guy goes to the bathroom and comes back and stands right behind me. I look up and he is completely naked except for a sock on his dick hovering right above my head.

We’ve been great friends for close to 18 years and I just got to meet his two kids.

Well it had a lock icon. You can’t just make those up!

Took a visit to the Killing Fields in Phnom Penh, it was horrific.

Peak cosplay right there.

Jesus Christ. What was the prompt, faces like melting mozerella?

Unrelated, but Native Americans did this in the US to mark trails. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trail_trees

It’s cool that you can still easily identify them to this day.

Weird take but definitely gonna be unpopular, haha. Does that apply to tooth whitening?

This game is awesome and hasn’t aged at all. If you can, definitely give it a go!

I used to rent this game from the base video store when my parents would let me. It was always for a two day period and it took a ton of rentals to beat. I went through a lot of paper writing down those codes. I also really love the box art for the X series.

Yeah so an example of throwing on aftermarket parts:

Start with your base watch, I picked up a cheap Invicta dive watch like so https://files.catbox.moe/bnxgcp.jpg

Slap on some aftermarket hands, bezel, faced, and sand the bracelet for a nice brushed finish. https://files.catbox.moe/mo52xw.jpg

This is a watch restoration I was attempting. Did a poor job but learned quite a bit. https://files.catbox.moe/9bv3pa.jpg https://files.catbox.moe/2kwaka.jpg

It could be a lot of things ranging from state threat actors looking for a toehold into a network or to cost the government time and resources or people doing it for the lulz.

Not too quirky or obscure but I really just like to fix shit. Clocks, washing machines, cars, crooked door, hole in a sweater, electronics… Nothing is outside of my interest.

On the more obscure side I like to fiddle with wrist watches by adding aftermarket parts and modifying their overall look.

You’d hate a lot of bathrooms in Asia, the majority of them are wet baths.

A post touting rural and suburban North Korea as a capitalist-free, pedestrian friendly utopia full of happy people.

It depends entirely on the bug and moreso the seasoning. I’ve eaten my share of ants and crickets in Mexico and South East Asia and the taste can vary wildly. I recall tasting the seasoning more than any buggy flavor.

On a side note, raw goat blood soup tastes exactly like you think it would… never again.

Nan province is also a beautiful part of the country to cruise through as well.
