It took me way longer to realize an article about how Alaskan airlines was giving passengers a pass to bring your own pocket tools on one of their flights that it really should have. My only real excuse was that the site wasn’t the onion.
I could go to a community college around me (I know they teach it), but scheduling it around work might take some work. You know, I think I might actually look and see if they have an occasional weekend course. I don’t have to be a professional welder, just good enough.
That’s an idea! I’d want to make sure I had proper safety equipment, but that might be an plan when I have some time.
Welding. Just useful for occasional projects, and would be nice to know I could weld something if necessary.
A lot factory farming is absolutely cruel yes, but production of plenty of animal based products doesn’t necessarily have to be. I’ve raised chickens before, eggs generally tasted better and the chickens were treated like pets (they weren’t meant for their meat). It’s a spectrum, the goal as a vegetarian is to reduce harm.
You have the freedom to customize it how you want. The downside is that you have to customize and install everything yourself. A happy compromise is to get an arch based distro which handles a lot of the main stuff, my current favorite is endevour os.
Depends on what I am listening to and doing. I usually like magnetic neckband headphones if I am moving around and maybe listening to a book, but prefer iems or openbacks if I am listening to music.
It generally is. Just make sure to know what model you want, and to make sure that the bios isn’t locked (computrace basically bricks them if enabled).
They have great Linux support, generally are pretty repairable (they will have repair manuals and extra parts for you to order), and they are usually lease laptops, which means if you don’t mind getting a used laptop you can get top of line laptops from a few years ago for a fraction of what they are worth. I’ve gotten thinkpads for years, generally only spending up around $200 on a laptop I use for a few years quite comfortably.
I usually carry around $30 with my cards, if I’m budgeting it can help make there be a limit as to what I can buy without having to rationalize my purchase to myself. Also, nice to have if needed, even if that isn’t everyday.
Just learn how to use unity (older c#). Once you start getting into that, you will probably know where to go from there.
Plus when you have a particularly bad day, you can say, this shows I did something today worthwhile. Even if it’s a small thing, sometimes you just need that little thing.
The only issue is that different cuts and styles can affect those objectively correct measurements. When you ask a guy what size jeans they wear, they most often will also remark what brand they prefer. It’s not really that they actually prefer it, but mostly that fits better than maybe another brand in the same size.
It doesn’t last as long, that why. Actually good denim is really hard to get now on jeans without paying a fortune.
$70k in my area in NC. It’s a lovely 2bd/1ba, and can keep the rain off your head (mostly). It totally wouldn’t be condemned if actually inspected.
