I ran both a few months back, but preferred KDE for the ability to easily edit the desktop and add widgets.

It would be better if they were riding ostriches.

Definitely. It’s just a LLC, they’ll dissolve it and start another once they finish.

I’ve done the peasant farmer, who left his farm and took off to be a cleric. He never had the knack for farming like his brother, and when a passing cleric told him about the wonders of his deity, old Jeb was enthralled. The cleric was nice enough to even sell Jeb, promised to be the genuine article, his very own holy symbol for all Jeb’s coins and a pair of chickens. His brother said he was a gullible fool, but Jeb was sure he had seen his true path. Gave up the farm and hit the road looking for enlightenment. It was actually a fun character, too bad the campaign slowly died off because people couldn’t make it to the sessions.

Scientific and irrefutable :)

That would have been a good thing to have. The cheap slicer got tossed, and we’ve got something like a Mueller slicer now. Sits over a container, and has guards so fingers can’t get too close to the blade.

My wife is very capable doing a number of things, but I would worry about the damage she would do (probably to herself) with power tools. She’s very much a person who charges ahead to get to the finish point on a project, and not always taking a moment to think about the necessary steps and “what if’s” of going from point A to B. We know what she can do to her fingers with a mandolin slicer, not letting her power up the table saw.

They need to christen their newly renamed Department of War with a war of some sort. Otherwise why go through all that trouble of renaming it. That would just look stupid.

This is just confusing. If the guy was anti-ICE, why was he trying to shoot the detainees? It can’t be that hard to tell the guys wearing military gear from the ones in prison garb. Maybe he was half blind using iron sites on an old M1 carbine, and shooting at anything that looked like a person? Does not make sense.

We used to drink Towne Club soda out of glass bottles.

Bought a used truck from a pest control company when I was in college, and they didn’t remove any of the decals before I took it. Parked a lot of places for free.

This should be like in school. You don’t just give an answer, you show how you arrived at that result. You show your work. If supremes cannot clearly show their reasoning based on precedent or some reasonable argument, then their pronouncements do not have any weight. “Because I said so” isn’t good enough. They’re going to find themselves being ignored.

Huh, guess I did get a birthday present today.

I work with someone who believes the flat earth bullshit. Our company makes pharmaceutical actives, pretty much everyone there has degrees in science. Yet one guy persists with “the earth is flat”. I’m incredulous over the willful ignorance toward reality.

Sceptre monitors are good. Have a 55" we’ve been using as our main television for 8 years without issues. Have a 32" as my computer monitor as well, about 6 years so far. They just work, no bullshit smart features.

I’ve been using Solid Edge. Siemens offers a free community edition that works great if you want to create models for 3d printing. I originally used FreeCAD, and while it works, had problems with models breaking when trying to make changes. Solid Edge is much more professional, easy to use, with pretty much all the features available that you could want. The only drawback for me is that it only runs on Windows. Tried going back to FreeCAD since it has the new 1.0 release and will run on Linux, but it felt too awkward. Now I have a dual boot system with Windows solely to run CAD software.

Commenters at the end of the article agreed with you on that. Probably better off buying a launcher and some engines instead. Then create your own designs with some CAD software. If I had a printer back when I was 12, printing up my own cones and fins would have been great.

I can still hear that voice in my head saying it, along with “goodbye!”

Yup, they’ll get right on that once they get finished closing up Guantanamo.

Doesn’t it make you feel better?
