Mouse would escape the tape and stick its head through the ring. Then you have an invisible mouse to rule them all to deal with. The whole of Middle Earth would be absolutely overrun with mice

Technically it would be low cal compared to a normally sized calzone just because of being significantly smaller.

That’s our secret, we’re always hurting.

So reddit is bad because you can’t break a subreddit’s rules without getting called out? Also, sarcasm with 0 context, especially in text form, should always be assumed that it will not be interpreted as sarcasm. That title alone in the subreddit could absolutely be considered clickbait.

His name be praised

Kermit the frog catching major strays in this thread. Don’t do him dirty like that.

LOL I totally identify with this. I don’t remember upvoting, but it looks like I already did. Just un-upvoted and re-upvoted for good measure.

That may be true for some people individually, but I believe if no one at a company is able to build any connection (even on a professional level of base rapport ), that’s much more an indicator of the company’s failures to build a proper company culture that supports that.

People have been making close friends over the Internet with zero in-person interactions for decades now. And that’s even without video chat being the primary way of doing it. I work 100% remote at a company with ~2500 employees. I’m pretty introverted, but I’ve managed to make a few friends mostly over slack that I would ask if they wanted to grab a drink or something if I were traveling through their area. There’s no pressure or expectation of that from the company, there’s no “we’re family” nonsense, they’ve just created a company culture where that can happen.

+1 on this, despecialized is the only way to watch the OT.

Plex is truly great! I forgot to mention it streams music in addition to movies and tv. The Plex web app is not particularly fantastic for streaming music, but they have a separate app called Plexamp that is really great. So all in all you can use this setup to eliminate all your streaming subscriptions.

It’s actually surprisingly easy! I’ve done it a few times for my other knives because my wife is morally opposed to having a knife block on the counter. So our knives go in the drawer each with a custom sheath to protect the blade.

All you need is two pieces of wood, each with at least one good flat face. You trace the knife on both sides of one of the pieces of wood. One tracing will be the inside of the sheath (the flat face if you’re not using s4s), the other tracing will be on the outside which you’ll use as a reference to shape the sheath. You then chisel or route where the knife will go, place the knife in it to make sure it fits properly. Glue the flattest face of the other board to the side you just routed. Once the glue is cured, use a belt sander to give the sheath the general shape you want, then orbital or hand sand to get it nice and smooth. Apply finish of choice, then you’re good to go.

Yeah it’s just a little guy! The original knife I started with had a 10" blade and was terribly unbalanced. It also didn’t have a full tang so it would easily flex where the handle met the blade. So I essentially shortened the knife so that I could cut a proper tang out of a portion of the original blade.

I always hated how small paring knives are, so I really like this size for doing a lot of things I would normally use a paring knife for while still feeling nice to hold and being a bit more versatile.

I think fear is an important part of our development, and sanitizing children’s upbringings is rarely the best approach. I love when my child communicates that they’re afraid of something because that gives me an opportunity to guide them through how to encounter and process that fear, and how to continue functioning in life when fear is present (which is always for a lot of people).

Also, for kids who are scared of their closet or under their bed at night, if you remove those triggers I would be surprised if other triggers did not arise. It could easily turn into a never ending game of whack a mole.

This is a very handy tool, thanks so much!

Ah, this explains it. Thank you!

Pay for a seedbox and install Plex on it (something like whatbox.ca). You’ll have your own streaming service that you can add anything you want to, and it only costs as much as the seedbox. It will give you insularity so you don’t get ISP notices, you can access it from anywhere, it’s great.

From there it’s just finding where you want to get your torrents from and getting used to adding them to the torrent client on your seedbox.

If it’s summarizing articles, wouldn’t that make it reductive AI, not generative?

Between Everything Everywhere, Banshees (probably my fave), Bodies3x, and Northman (and others I haven’t seen), 2022 was a truly fantastic year for original movies.

And while it was a franchise movie, Prey was also one of my favorites of the year.
