Had to buy another one of these https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08XSXQJRT since HVAC guys pinched the existing one inside my house.

what an odd thing to steal.

More ikea, pretty sturdy unit. Had to modify the back so av shit has some airflow. Wife changing shit again.

Not steal, the fibre cable got pinched against an air return damaging the glass in the fiber cable itself.

I love me an old fashioned, but with the current climate I'm not really in to buying American liquor right now. Picked this up and it's definitely interesting. Sweeter than most bourbon on my list, but SO smooth. I had to cut the simple syrup in half to make it work, but I'd recommend giving it a go. And if you prefer your bourbon straight, then this is a great buy.

I seriously considered this option as well. I have been so happy with my 9950x3d that I was about to go all in on AMD.

Well all in on AMD would have been cool too, but you sure won't be disappointed with that purchase.

YouTube and Solitare are going to be EPIC!!!

Bur-Bon???

Is Bourbon one of those products with a regional copyright on the name?

It is in the states, but I don't believe it's recognized internationally. I think US production has to be a % corn in oak barrels or something like that.

I would assume anywhere else producing it would call it 'corn whiskey' or something to be able to sell it in the US.

Edit: Apparently corn whiskey is a specific term with its own requirements too

Pretty sure it has to be made in Kentucky.

Apparently not, though the vast majority is;

Bourbon whiskey - Wikipedia

Edit: I was partly wrong about the international recognition. Canada, US and EU recognize it as only an 'American' product, some countries don't so it's a bit of a mixed bag.
