I’ve had my blendtec for like 12 years. It’s got a counter on it for some unknown reason. I just made my morning protein shake. I’m at 5473 uses. My previous blender was an oster that lasted a few years and didn’t work well. I’d previously broken cheap blenders after a few uses. If you use it for more than just mixing up simple things, the vitamix and blentec are worth it. Literally the only reason I picked blendtec is because it fit under my counter. The vitamix was too tall.

Just wear them. The leather softens from use. If they’re dry and stiff, put some leather conditioner on the underside. Maybe you have them too tight. And maybe they’re just not for you.

The stock market should not exist. Investing in companies is fine, but we shouldn’t be able to buy our sell investment shares like a commodity.

All subsidies should not exist. They only alter the supply/demand in unnecessary and damaging ways. This must come with ending commodities trading like stock market investing.

There’s little scenes that cause dopamine hits but the overall story is garbage.

Non faith based charities are still religious too. We just don’t call their dogma “religion”. But that’s what it is.

TIL you do NOT call a piece of meat on a bun a sandwich in AU/NZ… That’s called a burger. I argue a burger, regardless of its own definition, is still a sandwich.

Ha ha Etymology is fascinating. English is a wild language.

Thru is a word only in the sense that kleen, kwik, kut, tuff, chik, nite, lite, tho, etc are words. It’s called cacography or eye dialect and is the result of marketing and advertising agencies not being able to copyright common phrases. When the terms enter colloquial language, they’re still used but not copyrighted as the incorrect spelling still draws your attention.

Your condescension is matched only by your reading comprehension. I do not know what your requirements are. You said coding and alluded versioning, so I tossed out git. Enjoy your tech debt. I hope it serves you well and supports your ego for many years.

Versioning is a feature completely separate from raid or dual nas or whatever else you do. Your example of the house burning down is exactly why I questioned the dual nas… Both nas will be toast.

So please, tell me again why you need 2 nas for versioning? Maybe you’re doing some goofy hack, then ok. That’s still silly. Just do proper versioning. If you’re coding, just use git. Don’t reinvent the wheel.

On site? I put enterprise drives in my nas. Always have and have never had a drive fail. If one does, raid is good until the replacement arrives.

Local to synology. Synology to AWS with synology’s backup app. It costs me pennies per day.

Ethics is right and wrong. Think stealing and lying.

Morals are anything to do with life. Taking or creating life is a moral issue. Think kill, murder, rape.

An issue is typically one or the other. eg It’s morally ok to kill someone in self defense. You wouldn’t say it’s ethical to kill someone in self defense.

My friend’s name is Will Smith. I call him white will Smith. He said no one ever called him that. He thinks it’s kind of funny.

Is he lying to me?

I’m sorry but you’re wrong here. Kids need to learn that everyone is different and everyone is not treated the same. The oft liar is never trusted. The fat kid is probably the one that stole the candy. The nerdy kid probably did most of the group work. If you get good grades, the teacher gives you more slack in some areas.

And your example sucks. Putting your head down and “listening” is not the same thing as sitting up and paying attention to a lecture but not taking notes.

Don’t get me wrong. I see where you’re coming from and agree generally, but on academics, there’s too many different ways to learn. Whatever someone figures out that works best for them should be left to that if their marks are good every evaluation.

Every filthy stinking rich person I’ve known sacrificed their wife, kids, and friends to be so wealthy. Honestly, they can have it.

Oh i see… sal ad… ad sal… add salt… That’s pretty neat!

Go get a job pumping septic tanks. Customer disrespects you? Walk off the job leaving them with backed up poo. Generally people are glad to see you. Good money if you can get to the point of running your own truck. Some dudes making good money posting about septic pumping on YouTube too. Get out the auger and whip up a poop smoothie. Mmmm! Smells like money!
