I'd say someone has been spending to much time on these forums lol.

I suppose checking the "celebration of Freespace" thread before going to sleep was a bad idea (or a very good one).

My birthday today.

Happy birthday!

[Lorric]

I still remember the very vivid dream I had about being (Silent Threat Reborn Spoilers)

Spoiler:

rendered helpless by the Crazy Ivans and awaiting my death.

Since it was a dream I thought it was real and I was going to die. I just looked past my approaching doom at the beautiful nebula and awaited my end. But I woke up and was overjoyed to be alive.

Got the kiss on my second date with an amazing woman I have been courting with all of my might for the last two weeks. It all seems to have paid off!

Also, now time to drink and feel happy this evening.

Had party at my house
Kept giving people tequila shots
And myself

Bloody hell that was a good night

EDIT:

[Boomer20]

So after pulling a later nighter last night, I managed to finish my assignment and still maintain my sanity, as long as i don't have to read about iPSCs and iMPCs for a while, i think Im good.

On another note while leaving my practical class today I got asked whether I want to audition as a geek for beauty and the geek Australia

[Klaustrophobia]

do it.  there's a remote chance you might get to bone one of them.

Free board, food, fame, alcohol, FSO publicity, and Awkward boners!!  You get paid I assume?

[Nuke]

there's no such thing as an awkward boner.

there's no such thing as an awkward boner.

What about when it's a 'No Reason Boner'?

Went to go shoot the SVT-40 today
Learned something rather peculiar about it actually, and potentially dangerous

Now, if I cock the bolt and a bullet is chambered, it may or may not actually go off and fire the round
This originally was thought to be a slam fire situation, however it doesn't discharge any additional rounds of which is sometimes the case for a stuck firing pin

So upon dismantling and putting back together (which didn't fix the problem) I learned that the firearm actually pulls the trigger for you upon first cock, but not for any subsequent shot (thus I don't have to worry about a rapid fire situation)

Now, I figured that if I close the bolt slowly to chamber the round that'd ensure it doesn't go bang when I don't want it to
Unfortunately, that's not the case. See, when I close the bolt slowly, it doesn't close all the way leaving a gap of a few millimeters. If I hit the handle to close it, it'll discharge the firearm

Anyone who handles firearms got any ideas on this? I'm most likely going to take it to the store I bought it from and see what they have to say about it and whether or not it can be fixed, but knowing more about why this takes place would be nice

EDIT: Another thing to note, the firing pin does not jut outside the bore face while it is closing. The gun legit pulls the trigger when it slams or is made to close to the bore chamber

[Nuke]

just aim for the dirt when chambering. on hunting trips, we dont chamber unless we spot a buck and are close enough to kill it. the terrain here is pretty rough so were always jostling our guns around. better be safe than bear food.

that is your penis telling you its porno time.

Actually figured it out. Took a few different keyword searches in google but eventually found one that matched up:

We debugged over the phone and it does sound like his hammer is not getting pushed down far enough to get reliably caught by the sear at the rear due to wear on bold and or hammer. Trigger group is locking all the way up and the hook can't allow it to go any further up. Under firing it probably has enough momentum to get captured but by hand isn't 100%, pushing down on the bolt does help. He will post an update when he gets parts and sees if that does the trick.

If I do the bolded part, it does not discharge the firearm
Not exactly the fix I was looking for, but it seems to do the trick. Quirks in every surplus rifle it seems

[Colonol Dekker]

That's worrying enough to stop me using it.

Free board, food, fame, alcohol, FSO publicity, and Awkward boners!!  You get paid I assume?

To address your points:
Free board: I already get that at home 
Fame: Well I would love that but I don't do video cameras very well. (bad experiences at high school, bloody every kid thinking there a youtube sensation.)
Alcohol: I don't drink alcohol.......hides in the corner. Its just not my thing
FSO publicity: I was on it or TV in general I would give a shout out to the Hard-light Productions community anytime.
Awkward Boners: Well S**t
Also I don't need to find a beauty cause I already got one and it kinda defeats the whole purpose of the TV show. Being to hook geeks up.
Double Also I wouldnt consider myself geeky enough to get selected for even the auditions.
And the paid part. All the girl said was that if you get in you go in the running for $10000AUD which im pretty sure is split between you and your partner and I dont know about the contestants.
