Sacrifice- Pure Love

Sacrifice is a form of Love, understood by few, given by fewer. (Sacrifice- Pure Love).

This is the first part of what I plan to be a multi post thread where I talk about some neat things about my favorite vacation destination, Las Vegas. The Setup When you get to your hotel, you'll line up at reception with the hundreds of other guests checking into the hotel. While waiting in line, take a $20 bill and triple-fold it so it's smaller than the size of your cards. Then "sandwich" the bill between your ID and credit card. The Gamble When you get to the front desk, they'll ask you for your ID and credit card. Hand them the sandwich, they'll split the cards up, note the $20 bill and nonchalantly leave it on the reception desk. They'll look up your booking and confirm the standard details about the check-in dates, room preferences, etc. Acknowledge that it's all correct, and then ask "Are there any complimentary upgrades available?" They'll acknowledge your request and say they'll see what they can do for you. The Suspense At this point, you'll probably see...

Hey everyone, I'm about to embark on a fun project to build a 3 (or 5?) day survival kit for my household in Berkeley, CA. The primary reason for this is to use when "the big earthquake" hits. I was wondering if people wanted to give me suggestions on cool stuff to get/include in the kit. Here are some initial thoughts: 1) I'm generally price insensitive (within reason). I wouldn't be surprised if this kit ends up costing $2500. 2) I'm against having a firearm (I accept there are some practical reasons for this, it's just not my thing.) 3) I plan to include a sat-phone in the kit 4) I want to plan for mobility, i.e. have the kits in large containers, but also have backpacks in there so I can pack up and move if needed 5) I'm thinking 2 separate kits in 2 parts of the house, in case one becomes inaccessible when parts of my home collapse. 6) We have 2 adults and 2-year-old at home. I've literally done zero research into this, going to start now, likely going to try to post...

One of the most common questions we get is: “Can Massdrop launch an [insert name here] community?” With Hub, we wanted to create a space to have this conversation in an open environment, where all community members can provide their input. We’re looking forward to hearing from all of you about which communities you’d like to see most—and we’ll also be using Hub to test these out! With every community we add, we’ll learn something new that will help us do it faster and better the next time around. What makes a good candidate for a new community? Communities can really run the gamut, but each one should possess one or more of the following qualities: Communities requested by the members of Massdrop Communities we believe we can meaningfully help and grow Communities that can be split off from our existing communities New Communities Requested by Members Our members have a say in everything we do, so our top criteria for starting a new community is that it has been requested by you...

Massdrop used to be about giving bulk orders to small companies and providing new and cheap products. Now it just feel like a normal product website and really disconnected to us. The customer service is shit and the product range is dropping. Compared to half a year ago, all the outdoor stuff are gone and only the mechanical keyboards and audiophile stuff is left. And even so the selection of audiophile products has still dropped (no pun intended). I feel like the new investors are trying to squeeze out every last bit of cash and don't know what we need or want. With websites like Linsoul and Hi-fi go, drop is becoming obsolete. Honestly without the HD6XX I believe Drop would be long dead.

I originally joined Drop when it was MassDrop; what happened to all the game and dice deals they used to have on here? I miss those.

I bought the HD58x earpads at the same time with some keycaps. I thought that I would save on shipping since they would be shipped at the same time... but no. Now I have to pay twice the shipping. If I knew this would happen from the start, I wouldn't have bought those earpads at all... I messaged Drop almost a week ago regarding this issue and I haven't heard back from them... What the heck, Drop?!

To be honest what does it even mean when the products I bought are reserved for shipment? Does it mean there is no more and I have to wait for more to come in before they ship it or like do i just wait?

I can’t see any information on how to cancel my order I can’t even find my order.
