Doesn’t list knife. 🤔

Edit: it’s in one of your pant pockets isn’t it?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago

It is indeed. Along with my Pixel Buds Pro and chapstick

you are ready for whatever comes your way!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

That's my goal! I like to be the guy that when someone needs something, they go "Oh, SaintWacko probably has it." And they're usually right!

Walking around with your passport is a dangerous game.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

If I managed to lose my backpack, my passport is one of the things I'd be least upset about losing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Plot twist: I have two of them. Because of fear of losing it.

Tell us about your mini drone!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It's an old DJI Mavic Mini! Great little drone, folds up small enough to fit in a coat pocket, but it's got about half an hour of battery life. It's one of those things I don't use very often, but when I do there's no substitute

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Ah the Koss PortaPros! Excellent choice.

The main bag is older gen SwissGear USB ScanSmart backpack, and then in one of the pockets I have an Everki Venue bag that has the surface and its peripherals, the tools, the flashlight, bag, chopsticks, SSD, and charging stuff. It's nice because if I want something more compact I can pull out the Venue and still have almost all my stuff. What I'd really like to find is some sort of modular system, so instead of having bags inside bags I have multiple bags that hook together and I can combine them in different ways depending on what I need

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Yeah if you find something like that I'd also be interested. I have a bag in bag situation too.

I, too, am a real-life D&D character.
