my theory: some egghead grad students are looking for old forums to test their machine learning/AI projects on. ‘we need an old forum with a wealth of posts to mine ... something that won’t draw attention ...’

Should save time cleaning my cases.

Is ammo so expensive and regulated there that it is better off to recycle your cases than buy new ones legally?

Generally speaking in any jurisdiction about half the cost of the ammo is the cases so its worthwhile to recycle, plus you have far more options to fine tune the bullet, velocity etc to suit your gun and exactly what you're doing with it. I have no use for full-power less than accurate ammunition.
Furthermore plain lead bullets are cheaper than copper jacketed, commercial loads are generally jacketed.
Due to costs of shipping and storing live ammunition its often cheaper to buy the components and assemble them than buy live ready-assembled rounds.

The exception is shotshells which are usually cheaper new, there's almost no value in the cases which are largely plastic.

I feel like my dad bought more guns in recent years purely so he could take up reloading as a hobby.

On topic: For a wedding and essentially an anti-wedding I have this month, I bought a new suit for the former and a new sleeping bag/pad for the latter.

Probably. Them artists are not exactly getting younger either, so yeah lol.

Coulda yelled #meetoo after the gig. Some ladies came talking to us at the beer stand and one extra large lady starts rubbing herself on me. Pointing out that I'm a bit too married for shit like that didn't seem to bother her drunk waist from colliding with me. Ignored her was the best option and after that she moved to my buddy standing next to me. What a go getter...

One of these, which makes for a four-Subaru household.

I was going to have a nostalgia trip and buy a re-released Rough Rider - the one toy I couldn't have as a kid (because it cost money), I may still do but this will sate me for now. Mechanically its not far different from the XR311 which I did get (knocked right down at the end of the run)
I still have a lot of love for Tamiya.

Buy a cheap older sports car and slowly modify and restore it instead of playing with toys.

I never made a model car. Made loads of planes, a few ships, and a couple tanks. I wish I was back into it and better at it because I still have a Blackhawk I never built.

One RC car doesn't a collection make.
Although I was thinking of the Lancia Delta and the Porsche 911, in addition to the Rough Rider - which has been called 'Buggy Champ' since Tamiya found out what 'Rough Rider' means.
Maybe I'll get an FPV system instead, that would be fun.

Bleh, outside the US the market for obsolete relics is quite limited, once a car is worn out its worn out and I've got better and more profitable things to do than weld rust to rust and sand filler.

Bought a Roman coin from 82 BC yesterday. Was only $50 because of how worn it was because I didn't have the stomach to pay $250-550 for the same coin in better condition.

I am going to start collecting these. I want at least one coin from every great leader in history.

This seems like something you might like Jay.

deeply creepy.

why is it the people who collect nazi memorabilia are always the ones who would have been put in the oven like a pastry crust? or some fat balding cuck who can't even maintain lebensraum in his own marital bedroom?

The uniforms just look so nice. So do the guns and other stuff. I know the connection between Nazi style choices and revived German pride after WW1 so no lecture needed.

It is easy to look past the whole genocide thing when you realize like 99% of the deaths in WW2 Europe were white people. 50-70 million white people got killed in Europe due to the Nazis. With that record maybe only brown people should be into this stuff at all.
