    Oh, and Dyr tried out LoL yesterday. He seemed to find it just OK. I found the repetitious battle phrases annoying while he was playing.

    Its only fun if you are playing with friends or pa folks. Otherwise not really that exciting.

    How do projectors work? I'm going to be displaying video on a 4:3 ratio projector, but I don't know what the model is called.

    If I have 1280x960 video, would that work? Like if the projector has a different resolution I assume that it scales my video.

    yeah. Though the cops at airports have them which is sometimes not good with the whole panic/anxiety attack thing when they sit near me at the coffee shop with their big massive gun still slung over their shoulder.

    what is stirling silver

    is it metal used in mixing bowls

    It is a silver alloy that is actually useful for making things, as opposed to pure silver which is malleable enough to squish in your hands.

    Well, pure silver (aka, fine silver) isn't malleable enough to squish in your hands. Not even pure gold is that malleable. But it is very soft, certainly too soft for most practical applications. A big part of the appeal of sterling silver is that it doesn't tarnish, while pure silver does.

    You know what's weird? It's not actually a specific alloy. It's just something that's 92.5% silver. There are many many sterling silver alloys.

    Also I am shamed at having spelled it wrong previously. Though it made for a delicious pun.

    Pretty much. You can get a shotgun or a small calibre rifle if you can convince a doctor that you're capable, the police have no objections, and you don't live in an urban area.

    Handguns are basically right out.

    They have even better alloys for that. Argentium sterling silver has germanium mixed in, which makes it even slower to tarnish.

    Oh there are huge varieties of sterling, for sure. I was speaking more in the general sense. Unless it's chainmail I tend to like sterling primarily for enamel work.

    Shivahn you're a metal worker?

    No, I just decided to take up jewelry making as a hobby. I have a class tonight, actually.

    Right now I'm taking casting and fabrication. When these classes end I'm gonna take intermediate fabrication, stone setting, and probably casting again because I need access to the studio to make anything.

    Eventually I'd like to learn smithing and such. So I guess you could say I'm interested in becoming a metalworker, recreationally, but I'm not there yet.

    My BFA is in metal and fiber work. If you've ever got any questions or just want to talk shop I'm game. :)
