Got stopped by a rando while trying to build up the courage to jump. Told him that my car was broken down and that’s why I was stopped in the middle of the bridge in pouring down rain.

He got out and offered to help me, despite the fact that it was 3AM and the rain was coming down hard.

Awkward.

The car of course started just fine and I thanked him and continued my drive home.

I doubt he had any idea the difference he made.

I once said that children who steal can be rehabilitated or taught to be productive members of society.

Downvoted to oblivion while everyone else celebrated the death of 3 kids because “all thieves deserve to die”.

I’d play the shit outta that

This was my computer lab at school. Vividly remember the double stacked apple floppy drives and the wood box of floppy discs that you could check out at the school library to use the on the computers.

Didn’t have a home PC until the Commodore 64. Still have that one in a box somewhere with way too many accessories.

Working on an 86 RV and hating posi drive. I swear they were designed to strip.

Also no mention of Spider drive that everyone insists is a torx

In my experience, people tend to not want things that don’t benefit them directly.

If they don’t use the bike lanes they don’t want them to take up what could be a car lane they would use.

Dishwater Gnomes

Cover songs of 90s alternative at x2.5 speed and an octave higher.

I subscribed to all sorts of newsletters, and at least one was dinosaur specific. I would also write professors at local colleges with questions and usually get a response.

Also worked at the library and could order just about any book available. At that point most libraries would order books if they didn’t have them already.

But mostly newsletters and science journals until BBS became more common and user friendly when we first started having available computers.

Chicken Coup

I worked for a low income apartment complex that started doing AirBnB. It’s already a 2-3 year waiting list to get a rent controlled low income apartment but they were taking units off the market because they could make more money renting them by the night.

If anyone wants to understand HOW we measure calories, here’s a quick video short

Hoping to hear an answer to this.

As someone who saved literal cases of gaming mags from the 90s-00s I’m ready to part with them hoping someone else will go through the effort to scan them and make them available. I just don’t have the time or resources for that project and I’ve got a storage unit FULL of gaming gear that I need to empty. It’s hard enough to go through the games and hardware, I just want to get rid of the boxes and boxes ofabysls and magazines but I don’t want to trash them.

Well I certainly will be calling the big ladle “ULTIMATE” from now on, so thank you for that.

Soup everywhere.

Yeah. I would totally get this ink if someone wanted to practice. No cover up needed.

I did maintenance for a low income building. They would have me upgrade specific units so they could Airbnb them while they denied low income applications to keep those units empty. Disabled people who needed housing were denied because it was more profitable to leave it empty and rent it out to tourists a few times a month.

We also didn’t do maintenance on specific units in order to get tenants to move out. There was a specific unit that was given to new tenants that would routinely flood. They used it to get rid of people that complained too much. If you only complained a little and cooperated with their bs, you could eventually move to a unit that stayed dry all year.

Stihl typically does their own displays. You can’t mix other brands into their products. They have strict rules on pricing and promotion. If you don’t follow their rules, you can’t sell their products. If you go to any store that sells Stihl, you will find it set up in a similar fashion.

For your project you need an actual hammer drill. This might work to plow an anchor into some mortar between bricks but I would get the right tool.

Rent it or check to see if you have a local tool library.

But buy a new bit. Fresh bit makes a huge difference.

That’s easy! We only give ‘real americans’ food. There will be plenty. /s

Very similar position here.

I’ve always felt that it wasn’t anyone’s business but my own and the person I want to touch. I don’t worry about putting myself in a box so I don’t wear a label.

Those that “need” to know are told that I am “independent”. What does that mean to me? It means I decide who I want to fool around with. Sex is more than just tabs and slots.

Although I have found that this answer is unacceptable to nearly everyone, so I can’t say I recommend it.
