I used to do car electronics installs for a living. The amount of firearms I’d find was staggering.

Many times where we needed to get to/behind the glovebox, or remove the center console (which usually requires pulling every item being stored in it before removal), and we’d just find the handgun sitting right there. Had one where the client dropped off their vehicle and the gun was laying right on the floorboard.

Not firearm related, but I had a little old lady come in one time, wanted to get a radio done. Went to remove her center console so we could install an aftermarket USB in the factory USB location (adapter didn’t work with carplay too well) and I found a rusted ice pick in the center console. She was definitely ready to make someone’s day worse.

My favorite games as a child growing up in the 90s:

Zelda OoT

Super Mario 64

Pokemon Red

Zelda OoA/OoS

Though after later playing Final Fantasy 7 in 2003 that quickly captivated me and became really special to me. It was my first Final Fantasy I ever played and one of my most cherished games to this day.

Also, while I never played the original 90s game, I absolutely adored Black Mesa and the Half Life franchise. It was damn impressive what Valve accomplished with the original Half Life back then.

The job I recently started has three 3D printers that I’ve started tinkering with. They’re very handy, I started trying to use one of the modeling softwares we also use (Solidworks). I haven’t designed much, but I have finally designed something that would be for me personally; I got a figure of Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7 recently and the pegs on his stand are too small, so he doesn’t stand on there securely. I’ve yet to print it out to make sure my new measurements work, but the fact that I can just whip something on the computer and the printer makes it into reality is still something that makes me very excited.

I’ve bought my own printer, but I’m still waiting on Prusa to ship it out.
