    iMac G5 The ultimate Retro Gaming PC

    Nice vid. Your mic sounds a little bit muffled to me, like the top end is being cut off (Im thinking around 1-4khz range. Maybe where your mic is located?) Anyhow, fun vid. As I never really gamed on vintage apple stuff, my AIO retro gamer box preference lies in 1st gen Intel imacs as XP sp2...

    Attic dropped soffit air sealing

    Nice job. Those hot wire detectors are invaluable. I have one on my toolbelt. No one thinks about how destructive a 110 outlet can be until you witness an improperly grounded old AF, out of code box arch to a pocket knife and literally burn a hole clean through the blade like a welder. :oops: My...

    Board term limits?

    I understand the work flow & prioritization that had taken place to get this beast up & running. That is why I am bringing it up now. With a solidified board, It is a fitting time to address the duration of your indentured servitude to us 🙂

    Board term limits?

    If this is the case, then it is my opinion that it is the boards duty to codify this sentiment in rule and action. As I stated above, there are many ways to do this that can best fit this community, it's size etc. and can be ammended as the community grows and evolves. Another model that may...

    Board term limits?

    Well, I can tell you that the previous HOA that I was a part of had 71 units, some single owner, others dual ownership, so lets say a population of 140 folks (so extremely small) with instituted 4 year limits on the board. Different from govt terms in that it was not 4 years and you are out like...

    What are your favorite local microbreweries/distilleries/wineries??

    Gotta love the nanny state. Way to get in the way of entrepreneurial spirit. I have 5 gallons of a stout made with these extra fruity/floral European champagne yeasts in bombers getting good in my garage. I did not use much cascade hop, so am shooting for a smooth, malty, creamy stout with a...

    Favorite music style when cooking and when eating/drinking?

    I typically have jazz or traditional Christmas tunes playing at home (wife loves xmas tunes) from another room so it does not interfere with communication. When we get that rare occasion to go out, we frequent a few piano bars around town. Nice jazz at a low volume just for that reason -...

    You can only please some of the people, some of the time.

    Been there done that my friend and I can tell you it is an absolutely thankless job other than the comaraderie of like minds. :) DoI want to catch flack from a 16 year old (or worse a herd of them) who knows nothing other than how to pull strings and manipulate moderation? I dont think so. Way...

    You can only please some of the people, some of the time.

    Yes, you are right. It’s an impossibility, so I don’t expect you or any one on the TD team to be perfect. In fact I expect quite the opposite. I expect mistakes to occur, feathers to get ruffled, tempers to flare up at times and for truly good people with good hearts to show their asses from...

    Since local food & economy (local roasters!!!) rules, should we talk about our favorite local roaster brands in our respective neck of the woods?

    Favorite commercially available coffee?

    I worked with Rav at EE directly for years bringing EE coffees and teas to the coops in my neck of the woods (distributed through our DC out to 6 NCG coops I can think of and 2 non NCG). I have met him a number of times and he is such a gracious individual and has been co-owner of EE for a few...
