Same deal here. I went to a college party with an acquaintance and he did a line for the first time while we were there. He made SUCH a fool of himself the whole night. I've been deterred ever since. I never want to lose complete control like that ever.

I did automation work for a sewage treatment center that did regular water testing as part of treatment. Most of these kinds of jobs are automated for the most part. There's always a human operator present to supervise and to do some small function that is still cheaper to have done manually instead of by machine.

Woah, this hasn't been on my radar at all. Thanks for being generous and sharing!

If you're still giving out invites, I'd like one as well!

I had to switch from kdenlive to DaVinci Resolve recently and it breaks my heart. I'm by no means a professional, but I am a heavy user who is frequently sifting throughout footage. Unfortunately, crashes are still very common for a power user. After encountering a memory corruption bug for the second time that resulted in lost project work (despite saving to disk!!!), I had to switch to something better.

TGIF indeed! This week has been a busy one. I plan on celebrating Mother's Day with family and volunteering for Stamp Out Hunger 😄 What about you?

I played this game for Christmas with my parents! For fun, they offered me $10 or a scratch-off. For the heck of it, I took the scratch-off and won $40. With the way my luck went last month, I'd have to pick the lottery ticket.

What do you call this recipe?

Debian user here. This is scary accurate.

Last month, the power adapter to my router died out of nowhere. I wasted a ton of time troubleshooting literally everything else other than the power adapter because I've never had one die before the actual device itself.

Of course none of the other adapters I had on hand fit. I had to order a new one...

I've also been with Premium since the YouTube Red days. It was nice to have peace of mind of no ads on my TV (didn't need PiHole) and mobile devices (iOS was wrestling with device adblockers for a while). I was grandfathered into the old pricing model until recently. It's still not that bad per person, but if they raise it too much more, I'm gonna bail.

You ain't lying. Most of the bartenders at my favorite bottle shop / brewery are teachers doing a side hustle. They need the money.

Want your teachers to stop doing OF and more on the side? Pay them better.

 

Hi all. Anybody have any tips or tricks on making a bathroom sink drain faster without going through the process of taking it apart, cleaning it, and putting it back together?

Normally when my bathroom sink starts to drain slowly, I remove the P-trap and push all the gunk through the bottom into a bucket using a metal rod. Now that I might be responsible for cleaning out several bathroom sinks, I'm starting to dread this process far more.

Drano works OK and makes the sinks drain a bit faster, but it usually gets bad pretty quickly again. Any tools I should be investing in for minor stoppages like this?

 

Hey all.

Over the past year, I've had bad luck with standard, non-motorized cordless blinds. I've had to replace 4 due to the tension mechanism failing (from what I can tell).

  • I've tried gently exercising the tension mechanism as suggested frequently online. This does not work.
  • I've checked for knots and have found none (I typically expect these for corded blinds).

I've been purchasing the Home Depot brand. Do I need to go for a more expensive brand? Did I just get a bad lot? Should I go for corded for supposedly easier troubleshooting?

Thanks in advance!
