    OFF fundraising

    You could almost certainly lower your monthly costs. Source: I've been doing web development for many years. The broken English attempt at goading me is incredibly immature, by the way. Basically, this is like me saying I need money for a new laptop because my car insurance costs a $600 a...

    OFF fundraising

    No - I showed him cash positive $656. Did you read my post? If not, please read it before attempting to respond to it. Also who is talking about somebody trying to "keep a computer running"? He wanted to purchase a new computer due to the brightness and pixel density of his current monitor. If...

    OFF fundraising

    I don't think you understand how software works. Generally speaking, for something like an open forum, you fund it via ad revenue (which is exactly what Admin is doing). Many people operating resources / sites that are "labors of love" just pay for it out-of-pocket (for example, I am a software...

    OFF fundraising

    I said it was "a major turnoff for me" with regard to me making a decision on whether or not to donate money for a laptop, not to keep the lights on. Admin already said he was making enough to cover costs of actually hosting the forum via ad revenue. How is that me being "triggered" exactly? It...

    OFF fundraising

    But this isn't my perception. I was reacting directly to a comment you made wherein you made fun of a teenage girl with autism (Greta Thunberg, to be specific). I didn't appreciate the comment you were replying to either but a grown man on the internet making fun of teenage girls who are on the...

    Indeed I have. What is the relevance of it?

    OFF fundraising

    I was actually in until you made fun of a teenage girl with autism. That's a major turnoff for me.

    Been fishing for years but have no clue what I'm doing...

    It for sure gets busy, but I've never seen it so full you can't find a spot to fish. It's engineered to maximize bank access, and it's VERY kid-friendly. You drive right up to the lake, get out, and start fishing. Take a look at this map: I have never seen anybody catch anything in pond 7...

    Can we talk about the highway speed limit a bit?

    I felt like we were failing to communicate as well, which is why I was inquiring as to your native language (and it wasn't in a malicious way!). Just trying to understand where you are coming from. Allow me to break down your post in a few sections (also known as paragraphs, which I think you...

    Can we talk about the highway speed limit a bit?

    Yeah - I grew up in Eugene, moved to Portland when I turned 18. When I go back and visit family I'm always a bit surprised that there's actual traffic in Eugene now. :) I'm having a hard time understanding your comment to be honest. Is English not your native language? Not trying to be rude but...

    Can we talk about the highway speed limit a bit?

    Wait - you think talking about speeders is sexy? That's... something new. Wow. Anyway, are you trying to say that people not using turnouts is an excuse for other drivers to drive dangerously? Because that doesn't make any sense to me. Sure, if somebody is driving UNDER the limit, that might...

    Lakes Henry Hagg Lake Fishing Reports

    I went to Henry Hagg today with the kids. We somehow got skunked but had a great time. I fished multiple sections (from the bank) and tried a variety of different techniques. It was beautiful out and I saw probably about 30 other people fishing while I was there, and I saw not a single fish...

    Another newb wanting to get into steelhead fishing help

    Have you checked out Addicted Fishing on YouTube? They are based out of WA but fish the Columbia, etc. and have a wealth of knowledge. If you want to learn how to tie a steelhead rig and fish it, that's a really great place to start. EDIT: I also own both books @troutdude recommended and I...

    My first ling, a green from shore.
