One of the most satisfying things for me is driving my wife’s little Mirage in the snow. With normal all season tires it does great, with proper snow tires it’s completely unstoppable - that is, until you need to stop.

It turns out that accelrating and stopping a 2,000 pound car on ice and snow is easier than it is with a 4,000 pound vehicle.

“www” for World Wide Web has always bugged me. World Wide Web is three syllables, WWW is nine.

Now I have an excuse to drop Prime.

I bet it’s financed ar 29.9%

Guys like this are fun to bait past a speed trap in a little econobox.

I wish I or someone else who understands CAD modeling could help make FreeCAD work better. A LOT of the issue is tools that are commonly used are hidden in weird places that make sense only to people who don’t used cad for a living.

I used to work with a guy who could draw. He would absentmindedly create masterpieces with a sharpie and a dirty sheet of cardboard while waiting on a machine to finish. He said the only reason he can do it is because he practiced.

Every cool thing you see someone do, they’re only capable of it because they kept trying every day.

I used to work in a warehouse that had toilet paper like this.

Funny thing was, it was a warehouse full of toilet paper. So there was typically a roll of something better in the bathroom, sitting on top of the dispenser.

Watched a video from the “Townsend” channel on youtube while I was off work after a surgery back in January. He does a lot of 18th century cooking, in a kitchen without any modern equipment. I remember him making some bread and I thought “Wait - that’s not impossible, it doesn’t even look difficult”.

I tried to make some bread and it was amazing. Which lead me to try making something else… and now, in December, I’m able to cook a bunch of cool things that even my daughter will eat. I made cookies for Thanksgiving (chocolate chip, and some chai spice cookies I was experimenting with) and they all vanished, while my aunt, who makes cookies for a living, kept reminding people that she had made some cookies too.

My wife and I are visibly thinner and healthier than we were this time last year. We keep trying to cook new things, and it keeps working.

A lot of my weekends start with an early-morning motorcycle ride to the store to get the one or two things I need to make something, and I hope that the image of a large, unpleasant looking bearded man on a harley running to the store for stuff to make cookies tickles everyone.

Some are but most aren’t. Can’t really tell a difference.

I’m not the person you responded to, but I’m another crazy chicken person. I have three ladies and one boy chicken. They have a half acre to run around on typically, but right now I have them in the plot where we grow vegetables so they can break up and fertilize the ground.

Having a rooster for free range chickens is, in my opinion, 100% necessary. My roo does a good job of herding the ladies into the coop when he sees a hawk or anything else he thinks is dangerous. He also makes sure all three hens get food, instead of one of them eating everything. When the sun goes down, he rounds up the girls and they head into the coop to sleep. Here is a pic of my roo, he’s quite the gentleman.

The meanest, most dangerous dog I knew was an american eskimo owned by my ex wife. This was a 20 pound fluffball, and he looked like he would be friendly and fun to scratch behind the ears.

He loved to bite people, especially children. He had a specific thing he would do when someone looked at him: he would look up and smile, while vigorously wagging his poofy tail. You’d reach down to pet that brilliant white, angel-soft fur, and as soon as you were close enough, he would take a chunk out of your hand or arm. This wasn’t a playful bite, he would bite down hard and hang on.

“Andor” is the best Star Wars series.

That’s kinda where I’m at. My wife is probably the entire reason I’m not either dead at my own hand or crazy. And meeting her was a complete accident.

I recently started using Doordash.

My mother in law doesn’t see that well. She lives in an apartment about 30 miles/48 km away. She is able to get around her apartment, and do things like take showers and use the bathroom, but she doesn’t see well enough to cook, and wasn’t ever any good at cooking anyway. She is supposed to have another family member living with her and making sure she gets fed, but said family member is too interested in doing drugs and chasing men.

So I’ve been sending doordash to her apartment for lunch when Im at work, along with leaving simple food she can prepare by herself. The wife and I are working on getting her into an assisted living facility. She doesn’t need a nursing home, she needs people to talk to and a place where she can eat.

It’s really handy for people who need food, but for some reason aren’t able to go get it. Thankfully this situation is temporary for me.

Most likely I’d find wife and then sneak out with her.

My wife and I used to take care of her grandmother. After a while, this old lady got excited to get a scam call or telemarketer, because she would hand the phone to me and I’d just pick a persona:

• Confused old man
• Helplessly stoned young man
• Lecherous and blustery impolite person

There were others, but those were her favorites.

Could be. It was just too easy. Nothing to work around.

I have DSP, and for some reason it just doesn’t click for me. I get bored and I don’t know why.

I would love a version of Satisfactory that has the depth and procedural terrain/resource generation of Factorio.
