Bought the p226 legion sao about three weeks ago. Had to immediately send the slide in to fix a issue with the sights. I got and back today and finally got to shoot it. This thing is like the holy grail. That trigger is magical.

Same. I have, for many years, used a laptop on the coffee table as my computer...no room for a tower or actual monitor there. It's also really nice to be able to just close the lid and move it out of the way when pets or kids or whatever else threaten. And taking with when traveling is really nice.

I haven't had a desktop in, hell, IDK, 15 years? srs

It was a lucrative business move by RTIC, which in 2015 started selling lookalike coolers on a wave created by YETI. This week, it appears, that wave for RTIC has crashed.

A lawsuit in the United States District Court shows RTIC was too aggressive in its tactics. RTIC Coolers will make an undisclosed financial payment to YETI and also cease sales of many coolers and drinkware products in its line.

I'll also use it for general home computer use and don't want to be tied to one room in the house. I have a somewhat regular jam with a few guys and they always come to my place but we've talked about playing in other places, and if I get a good laptop I can lay some stuff down that's portable. My keyboards ain't going anywhere. I prefer to play guitar but nobody else does keys or drums so I get stuck with that.

I know a laptop is much lower spec and less upgradable than a desktop, which is why I want to go ahead and get something somewhat loaded that I won't have to worry about for a while.I haven't played any games in years but I may start at some point, and want to have that option too.

I have a Lenovo 13" Yoga with a 64gb SSD drive for basic use, as well as a 15.6" Asus hooked up to a keyboard and large monitor setup.
Games these days are huge in size. If you think you'll want to run them off your SSD (you will) just know that 256GB will fill up pretty quickly. Kind of your call though, SSDs can always be upgraded.

California servers have made at least minimum wage for a while now. Unless the service was exceptional, I don't normally tip more than a low amount to even out the bill and calm my OCD lol



My first job was a paperboy when I was 10 or 11 and I delivered each paper to the doorstep, my dad made me business cards that I handed out, and I took requests of where the paper should be dropped off at. I made more each month in tips than my paycheck lol.

Same.

No need for a desktop.

I have a Surface Pro from work. Perfect compromise IMO.

Yeah, pretty much the same. Maybe only a decade or so without a desktop entirely though.

If you have a job requiring skills so rare you cant find a us citizen to do the job, i would expect that job to pay 130k or more.
