So, a -48VDC 100A to 120/240 5kVA inverter is gonna cost almost $6,600. It’s absolutely sick. That doesn’t even count how much it’s going to cost to get Embarq to drop us a -48DC/100A line, and the contract to an electrician to install it. And the 3 freaking months it’s going to take to get our entire contract rewritten to get one or two of them. All because Embarq wont let us get anymore AC lines from them.
That sucks. That sucks ass. What a bunch of fucking jerks. We’re growing, we need to install more computers into our CoLo. Sorry, can’t do it. Maxed out on power usage. Need more lines.
Bah.

You know, one of the nifty things about this blog is that you can register a username, and get e-mail updates when I update. Hell, if you did that, you’d never even have to come here. I think it has the entire text of the update in the e-mail. And you know your e-mail addresses would be safe with me. No way in hell I’d ever sell them to any freakin company (they already have them, anyways).
And yes, I know the page is ugly as sin. I still have to find out how this whole PHP and CSS thing works to make it pretty.
I mean masculine. Make the whole thing look masculine. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

I’ve been meaning to post these pics for a few, I just haven’t bothered yet. And since I can’t quite sleep yet, here you go for my enjoyment.

Yup. And now that I’ve had some practice, I can hit what I’m aiming at.
Love it. It’s just been a real treat to fire off. I think after about a month more of going out on the weekends to practice, I might move the target to 50 yards instead of 25. I know it’s gonna take a bit of practice, because I get a little shaky after firing off a few rounds. I’m still so freaking excited that I’m now armed. I just really want to make sure that I get to know my gun so I can handle it properly.

So yeah.
Sure, I don’t get all those fancy fucking lj icons. It’s not like I was mad about them anyways. Not like some of you guys, with like 100+ icons when you only use about 4 or 5 of them even though you post 15 times a day making me scroll past to get to something interesting. Though it’s a rare thing I actually find it.
Heh. Gotta love it.
