I love both games very much. I’ve played both a ton but I’ve definitely played OOT more so I suppose that’s my preference. But for me, the real question is between Chrino Trigger and FF6, as those are my two favorites.

Is this a NADDPOD reference?

Looks fantastic! This has been the main Vostok I’ve been thinking about getting. What are your thoughts so far?

Congrats, Doctor Lady!

From my own experience, it’s the prepolish to polish step that give so much trouble with quartz. I usually get around this by doing a very clean 3k grit pre-polishand then go straight to polishing. Ideally I’d like to use a good 8k prepolish but with quartz being so finicky in regards to contamination and scratching, I get better results without it.

If I want to do quartz right, and get clean flat razor-sharp facets, this is what I do. I have an old solid steel crystalite lap that is 3k Diamond and pretty worn. Does an excellent prepolish. Then I go straight to 50k Diamond powder on a gear loose BA5T lap. For the best way to charge the lap, I’d watch videos on how Roger Dery does it. It’s basically the same technique I use and it works every time, albeit it’s expensive.

If you want a way that’s quick, cheap, and VERY easy, go directly from 3000 grit (steel topper lap works fine here) pre-polish to a cerium oxide Mylar pad (spectra or similar). Mylar pads are known for facet rounding but you can minimized this a great deal with very light pressure.

Good luck!

It’s really worrisome that you keep repeating the rhetoric of “nothing of value was lost that day.” A human life was lost that day. A mother and father’s son was lost that day. So you just believe that because he committed a crime (which, by the way, his only official crimes were traffic violations. Having a knife in his hands in his own car is not a crime), his life doesn’t have value? So should every criminal in our justice system just be put to death? Are you actually a sociopath? Nvm, I know the answer.

Again again again, no one is calling him innocent. Again again again, just because he isn’t innocent doesn’t mean he should have been shot. I mean how the fuck is this so hard to grasp?

“And that doesn’t even factor in his erratic driving and going the wrong way.” All of the crimes you mentioned here are basic traffic violations in Pennsylvania and would be punishable by a single ticket.

“Stop the fucken car” - the car was stopped when the officer shot him (he was shot 7 seven seconds after the officer got out of his patrol car according to the official report).

“Don’t pull out a fucken knife on an officer.” - the man was still inside his car with the doors closed and windows rolled up and as per Pennsylvania law, it is legal to have a knife out and in the open in your vehicle. Assuming the man intended to use the knife against the officer, I beg you to give a scenario in which the man could stab his knife through the car door and injur the officer. If you say something like “well, he could have gotten out of his car and stabbed the cop hur dur dur.” Then just save your breath. We could argue all day about what could have happened. The fact is, it didn’t. The man didn’t get out of his car to attack the officer with the knife, and the officer wasn’t in danger. End of story.
