My experience has been that they last for more years than I tend to notice which ones are which. I’m not mad at all about their longevity.

I had 2 LED bulbs that I know for sure that I bought prior to 2015 that only recently failed. Those bulbs lasted at least 9-10 years. The rest of my bulbs I haven’t kept up with but those 2 older ones looked very distinctive with aluminum heatsink material for their bottom halves.

Cool, I didn’t know you could do that

I think the bomb threats in Ohio after the dumbass pet eating lies were spread is a preview.

Trumptards already saw their insurrection didn’t work and that prison is the consequence. Trump admitted that he lost the 2020 election and many of those cultists are mad about it. So I don’t think we will have a repeat of the Capitol attack, instead we may have some assorted terrorist threats and attacks. Hopefully if that does happen, it will further drive them into obscurity because normal people tend to not like terrorism.

Rudo’s tool sounds cool.

I’ve done those conversions by hand before, just deleting irrelevant Google junk out of the KML file to import it to OsmAnd~ because I planned my route on the desktop Google Earth app (3D is cool) and exported it to KML. After some edits it usually will import to OsmAnd on the phone

I didn’t have to pay for it, installed from F-Droid, and I can download any map I’ve tried so far. When I’m traveling I like to pre-download the standard map for the whole state if it’s one I don’t already have installed. It’s nice to not have to worry about data / reception.

Overall OsmAnd is a pretty good GPS-map-navigation app, but has several annoyances and bugs. Still better than using Google’s app to me. I need to check out Organic maps too

I think one of his worst pieces of advice is to pay off debts before saving for an emergency fund (if I remember correctly)

Saving some kind of emergency fund first is more important than not having any debts. Having money on hand is worldly power in your hand basically. If you’re debt free but broke, then you can’t deal with an emergency that requires money.

Here’s a website about those kinds of fake shows

I’m in the USA and I get 3 weeks paid vacation, 10 paid holidays, and 2 “personal days” which are also PTO, and more sick time than I am ever able to use up. I think I have over 200 hours of sick leave PTO accrued.

This is not a basic entry-level job though, it’s after climbing the career ladder for years. It would be much nicer for our country’s folks if everyone was allowed as much PTO by all jobs.

I bought a cylinder head pressure gauge from HF and took it home, didn’t work at all. When I looked at it closely I could see that it was completely missing the core valve that is supposed to be in the bottom. It was just a hole instead of a valve. Took it back for a refund next day.

I wouldn’t even call Ryobi the cheap one, they are good quality and cost more than many others. Harbor Freight is what I’d call cheap - my rule of thumb is that very simple hand tools from HF are OK but anything complex is probably not

Just another reason not to watch them. I don’t want to watch any videos of talking heads. There’s no reason that I need to watch a video of someone’s face talking about anything.

That didn’t work with porn, so it’s not a good idea for less popular websites.

I don’t have that habit, because phones are not interesting enough for me to stare at all day. Why in the whole amazing world would I want to limit my perspective to such a tiny screen? I have 4 computer monitors to look at instead!

How to break that habit? Stop carrying your phone around. Put it down in a resting place that is suitable for it to alert you as needed and go about your day doing other things. You might need to find some other things to do. I don’t keep my phone in my pocket unless I’m traveling somewhere on foot, or somewhere in public that I can’t safely set it down. It stays on a table or desk or whatever most of the time.

Making any excuse to not learn how analog clocks work is what’s really a weak assertion. It’s not that fucking hard.

Sounds like you just didn’t understand. Each hour of the 12 on the clock takes up 30° of the circle, and we measure time in cycles of hours, minutes, seconds that all match up well with the 360° of a circle.

It helps give people a geometrical understanding of the cyclic nature of time.

A random black man at the pool yelled at me that I look exactly like Emilio Estevez. I didn’t know what to say

When you’re trying to pee, try working up some spit in your mouth like you’re going to spit a bunch of saliva out. Not a loogie from the throat / sinus area but plain spit from under your tongue. For me it seems like this is connected to the piss-releasing nerves and helps to let it flow.

Yeah, I set the toaster on fire once also. I had read online that you can make cheese toast in there if you turn the toaster sideways so that the cheese is on top vs gravity. It might have worked if the toaster hadn’t caught fire. I had to throw it out the front door into the yard
