    The Lottery is now 1.5 Billion

    Many people have done it but this was the guy I had in mind, read the article years ago. https://www.businessinsider.com/how-one-guy-won-the-lottery-14-times-2016-1

    The Lottery is now 1.5 Billion

    It’s easy to question if it’s on the level or if it’s rigged. A couple of weeks ago during the run-up to the current pot I bought ten tickets, for the ball I only got 5 different numbers. I got the same number three times, twice. I got another number twice and two singles. That was a crazy...

    The Lottery is now 1.5 Billion

    In the early days of the lottery’s there were groups of people who were able to game this by calculating the odds and buying large blocks of tickets (don’t recall if they also selected the numbers). They were pretty successful in that they ended up being banned from playing and led to changes...

    What reticle for sporting clays?

    I was originally going to make a crack about using Tremor 11 or something but figured it was too easy.

    Ruger no. 1

    I think I have one of these. I bought it a while ago (almost 20 years) and had it rebarreled into a 45-100 to work on load developments for a double rifle I was designing. The idea was to get 458wm ballistics with a longer rimed case, sort of slotted between the 458wm and 458 Lott. I kept...

    What reticle for sporting clays?

    The only value in a main and mid bead is a reference to know if something in your setup has changed (i.e. comb or other adjustment, including getting fat, changes). For shooting, use the force (or whatever you call everything you have learned about shooting clays without conscious thought). If...

    A couple of Welrods and an OSS Hi-Standard coming up for auction in the UK

    Not sure on how or if any of these are importable into the US but Holts (UK) has some interesting stuff coming up in their November auction. A couple of Welrod pistols and a "U.S. Property" marked suppressed Hi-Standard should get the juices flowing for some of you...

    LIVE: Returning to the Moon with ARTEMIS. LAUNCH RESCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 AT 5:00 PM

    SLS and the other component programs (Orion and Artemis) are only a waste of money if you think they are supposed to actually produce something other than to keep the drones at the NASA field centers employed (and the centers themselves open).

    Nanny State Test: Company Locks Thermostats of 22K Customers, Cites 'Energy Emergency'

    All I would need to do is disconnect it from Wi-Fi, assuming the power company is going to force Lennox to provide access to it in the first place. By the way, you wouldn’t happen to be accessing the Hide through the Tor serves over at FBI HQ would you?

    Nanny State Test: Company Locks Thermostats of 22K Customers, Cites 'Energy Emergency'

    Last fall I had a new furnace and heat pump/AC system installed. It has a smart thermostat as part of the system (Lennox) so it’s not controlled by the power company. I did connect it to Wi-Fi so it can get software updates, it will also send error data to the HVAC company if it has any...
