So you feel the need to talk yourself out of.... Happiness? Joy? Fulfillment? Help me understand here, have you thought about seeing a therapist about this?

Motherfucking Gen Z discovers vacations and thinks they've found a new secret to making careers tolerable...

Short of the becoming an attic gnome for his green card @Lambourne is pretty spot on. I'd also add that from the outside it looks like you're suffering from something of a crisis in the self image department, but it's wholly normal in your situation to be suffering from that. Sounds like you...

I had not seen one of these before. And whereas I know I have no legit use for one (I have a few 40v tools, but not the chainsaw yet) I now have a powerful need....

I can confirm that if you die, you won't be able to access your wallet, since you'll be dead. But if someone else has your keys (i.e. your seed phrase) they can install as compatible wallet app and get into it with your keys I literally made metal plates with my seed phrase on then and...

I can easily remember when I was a kid and I'd get a burger, fries and a drink. (before the age of a "kids meal"). And it was just the regular burger, regular fries, and regular drink. First off, the drink was at tops 16 oz. That's a small drink anywhere now. The fries would at best be a...

I think we've covered this before..... It's like Harry Potter. Except in my case it was "When guys have to do their first real DIY project". For me that was driving to Atlanta in my distant past taking my at the time GF to her college for the semester. She was living in her sorority house...

Being raised by my grandfather I have a deeply ingrained level of how straightened up a work area needs to be if I don't want to feel his disapproving stare from the afterlife... ;)

I thought we had a workshop thread, but i guess not. Just finished finally building a shed out back and that cleared a bunch of nonsense I was storing in my workshop (i.e. garage). So installed an additional workbench, now to put some shelves above it. It's the one on the right, adding to the...

OK, next project up... I'm going to try to cast a couple properly ornate skulls with which to (elegantly) strike fear into my enemies. 3d printing this model : Then using a process called "lost PLA casting" or at least my cheap ass bastard version of it. The idea here is: You take an...

Of those three options I think the most probable would be the emergence of a solid alternative for reserve currency and trade usage. BRICS is feigning at it. China and Russia are both stockpiling non USD assets, more and more countries are settling business without translating things into...
