Looks great! Really nailed, err, tooth picked it.

CanadianCorhen OP ,

i do, and i get pages and pages of drivel, plans for entirely different types of beds, and full beds for sale... but nothing like what im looking for.

CanadianCorhen OP ,

Actually quite handy with CAD, but more in the "can plan out a city block" and not so much "fine woodworking"

I'll likely go the DIY plans way though

CanadianCorhen OP ,

Looks great! Well done.

I was really surprised to see the B1m, a mega project channel i follow, cover a project in my back yard...

I liked the video they have done, and loved to see this project.

Overall i think its a good coverage of the project. highlighting the floating roadways to minimize impact was appreciated. Still think its odd how many people dont like the project..

CanadianCorhen ,

yea, there will always be an impact to traffic, which sucks, but theres really no way to do large scale construction WITHOUT an impact.

Dont doubt that the benefit will outweigh the negatives within a year.

CanadianCorhen ,

Nah, we need to get a handle of our carbon emissions. Right now is the cheapest time to address them, and as much as it sucks right now, it will be more expensive tomorrow.

SWAT Team Raids Innocent Family Over Stolen AirPods Dropped on Their Street ( www.riverfronttimes.com )

Around 6:30 p.m. on May 26, Brittany Shamily was at home with her children, including an infant, when police used a battering ram to bust in her front door. “What the hell is going on?” she screamed, terrified for herself and her family. “I got a three-month-old baby!”...

CanadianCorhen ,

good god, i hope they win the hell out of that SWAT team.

Always love the nonsense of AI images.

3 pairs of wheels on the car, and while this is clearly the rear of the car, it has a full front end.

Godspeed, MTG, and good luck! Eat yourself alive GOP

I got a DeWalt, used for $50, mainly for the rack and pinion fence. Makes setting the fence so much easier

CanadianCorhen ,

aww, A Fire Upon the Deep is high on my reread list! Still one of the more thought provoking books i've read

CanadianCorhen ,

I have a jobsite saw, not a cabinet saw.

Half the reason i ended up getting a Dewalt is the rack and pinion fence. Not having to worry about the square of the fence (except to double check once in a while) is absolutely great.

when i was in the UK, i took a train from london to Glasgow. train was >200kph, and, without exaggeration, as quiet as a library.

Arrived 15 minutes before it left, had a beer on it, was in glasgow in no time. Highly recommended.

CanadianCorhen ,

I do love how well that form is laid out, and clear it is. Wish it was on a nice letterhead.

CanadianCorhen ,

yea, he expected him not to be willing to discuss Tienanmen Square, since no one in china would want to discuss the genocide.

Of course, considering hes not Chinese, he had not problem.

Man Displays Father’s Severed Head in Horrific Video Railing Against Biden, Immigration, ‘Far-Left Woke Mobs’ ( www.mediaite.com )

Justin Mohn, a 32-year-old Pennsylvania man, is in police custody after allegedly murdering and decapitating his father, claiming the latter was a "federal employee" and a "traitor." Before his arrest, Mohn posted a 14-minute video to YouTube in which he displayed his father's severed head, proclaiming: "This is the head of Mike...

CanadianCorhen ,

the two are not logically exclusive. a correct comparison is

"are you Pro-Isreal, or Anti-Israel" and "are you Pro-Hamas or Anti-Hamas".

CanadianCorhen , (edited )

And you, clearly, are in another postal code entirely.

"are you a fascist or are you an anti-fascist?" is exclusionary, you can only be one. You cant both be fascist and anti-fascist, nor can it be 1 and not 1, they are logically exclusionary.

"is the number of gumballs odd, or not odd"
"you are so close to getting it"
"yea... that's not an answer"

""Are you Pro Israel or Pro Hamas" is not, and proposing that as an example shows a complete lack of understanding on basic syllogism.

NVM, just saw you said this multiple times to everyone who raised a point you cant refute.

CanadianCorhen ,

I mean, this is like saying "$10,000,000 would buy you a house in 1910, and $10,000,000 would buy you a house in 2023"

It would take a lot more gold to buy you a house in 2023 than it would have in 1923

CanadianCorhen ,

i mean, didn't we have a full commission that found it WAS appropriate to use the act?

The end of workplace loyalty: Why work feels so broken right now — and how it can be repaired ( www.businessinsider.com )

In the two years I've been writing about Americans' changing relationship to work, there's one theme that's come up over and over again: loyalty. Whether my stories are about quiet quitting, or job-hopping, or leveraging a job offer from a competitor to force your boss to give you a raise, readers seem to divide into two groups....

CanadianCorhen ,

That's what it comes down to: You are expected to have loyalty to your employer, but your employer has 0 loyalty to you. If you want me to break my back for a single company, it needs to do right by its employers first.

What is the best way to fix cracks before repainting ( lemmy.world )

I am renovating my son's bedroom and trying to make the walls as nice as is reasonable before repainting. There are a few cracks like this in the paint. It looks like on top of the drywall there is paint, wallpaper, and then a few more layers of paint. The cracks could be at the seams of the drywall from expansion and...

CanadianCorhen ,

I dont think just filling it with joint compound would be enough, since its breaking from ongoing house movment.

I've used Drywall Joint Tape to properly repair these, allowing ongoing house movement without these cracks reoccuring.

Its defiantly more labor intensive, since you need to apply drywall plaster to spread over, then sand it down smooth, before doing a larger paint.

CanadianCorhen ,

Always think its odd they want someone like this or this in the women's washroom...

CanadianCorhen ,

Thats great news, but the proof of the pudding is in the tasting, and we will have to see if Google makes any parts for their phones available. I havn't heard of Google... digitally keying their parts the way Apple does.

CanadianCorhen ,

Darn, would have loved to pick this up!

Working on collecting their fancy edition of the books.

Your thoughts on The Orville? ( lemmy.world )

When I first started this show I found it to be a really awkward mix of comedy and seriousness. It had some jokes thrown it at the most inopportune times as some kind of comic relief from a really serious situation. Perhaps the first half of the first season was actually a bit rough or maybe the show just grew on me, but by...

CanadianCorhen ,

I loved how Klyden grew through that story line, realizing what his prejudice was costing him and growing!

The Pollinators of Eden: A Retro-Futuristic Adventure with Some Peculiar Twists

I recently stumbled upon this list of scifi based on Invasive Species, and one that caught my eye was "The Pollinators of Eden" by John Boyd. Unfortunately, finding a physical copy was a challenge, so I opted for the online version on Open Library....
