I’ll take any excuse to share Feynman talking about fire: https://youtu.be/N1pIYI5JQLE

I’d totally forgotten about 12 monkeys. I had that VHS of this when I was 11 or 12 years old, I probably watched it 30 times and I never fully understood it. 25 years later I think it’s time for me to rewatch this

I’ve put a note on my microwave to mute all beeps. I’ve made it very clear to my wife, in the event of my untimely death, she is to show her next husband how to turn off the beeping after a power outage.

It’s obvious clickbait, but no one is saying the game caused anything.

Just his buddy in a discord where they played among us saying “isn’t that interesting, there really was a secret killer in this group that played a game about a secret killer”

So disappointed to learn this isn’t real

Interesting story about a bit of a mean guy. Not too nice a fella, this rattlesnake

The overhead running a legit business is unreal.

My general advice is don’t use post mix concrete, use regular stone mix and backfill immediately. The backfilled dirt will hold it in place and slow the cure, giving you hours to go back and tweak as you go. That rapid post makes no sense, there’s no urgency in the setting phase, that’s the opposite of what you want.

And remember, if you do a good job it can last 20+ years, so don’t be lazy and take a shortcut because it’s “good enough”. You’re better spending $300 on a rental machine to dig the holes than to set a post that isn’t deep enough. I’m in Canada where frost can be hell, my posts go 4’ down and usually 5 bags concrete per post, then another 3 bags down the post once it’s all assembled. Your 40’ fence I could easily put in 50 bags. Don’t base your shopping list on that, but know that if you care about longevity it takes patience and hard work, like anything else in life

My time to shine. I own a company that does fences, we specialize in custom vinyl. Obviously this varies by region, but I’ll price vinyl $95-130/ft, and $300 per gate. Depending on if I liked you, what I knew about the soil, travel time to your job, I’d probably come in around $5300, installed

It might sound insane, but my 4 man crew costs about $1100/day to keep on the road. 40’ in bad conditions is 2 days minimum, can easily spill into 3. My materials would be around $1500, so worst case I’m netting in $500 for 3 days of work, which is damn near unsustainable considering the amount of machinery I’ve got in play

I had this happen to my Angelfire account in 1997, logged in and I had access to someone else’s crappy website. After that I stuck to Tripod.

Sucked because the hit counter on that page was huge, I was almost ready to take down my “under construction” gif

Who says they don’t already? I knew a guy who worked for a major government agency who’s job was to look over horrible pictures to try to figure out where they were taken.

I bet the most skilled people do work for them, not just youtube. But talking to that guy, it’s a tough job, not for everyone. Instead of a random streetview image it’s a scene of abuse, so…

I found it to be saccharine garbage. I struggled through one season because I always heard good things and I truly hated it by the end. It’s on the level of Paw Patrol for dramatic tension
