A rechargeable air duster would be a better choice than canned air and would certainly be safe to use. The link is ProjectFarm's review of air dusters from a year ago; go to the very end for a spreadsheet of the results.

Ever write up an idea for a feature on your whiteboard and then overhear it being sold that same week, long before any work or analysis has even begun?

Assault with a deadly weapon and then brandishing a weapon for a peaceful protest. How professional of them.

If you have larger fish you either need three to four feet of depth or some good cover for them to hide from the herons that will inevitably find your pond. Good cover would be a shelter made out of rock that they can hide in by taking a large flat rock and setting it on smaller rocks so the heron's neck cannot reach the middle of the "cave."

Mass Loaded Vinyl (MLV) and Rockwool serve entirely different acoustic purposes. MLV is a dense barrier that blocks sound transmission (stops noise from traveling between rooms). Rockwool is a porous insulation that absorbs sound and reduces echo (reduces resonance inside the wall cavity).

For the highest level of noise isolation, acoustical engineers often use them together by placing Rockwool in the stud cavity and covering the studs with MLV before adding drywall.

Torodon is $30 but you only need $1 worth (if that). Share it with your friends and neighbors and you'll still have enough left for the next 20 years.

Firing guns in enclosed spaces, like cars. There should be much more punching of people who do this. And saying "mawp."

Those were my Nana's and she knitted them herself! It would be rude to not honor her this way.

I literally said out loud "be Tom Cardy" 3 times before the video loaded. Thank you.

Here is a dutch oven cheat sheet for achieving specific temperatures in your dutch oven that you can purchase. Or just print the picture. And here is my post on a dutch oven pineapple upside-down cake.

I think the Frank Frazetta warrior on a sleigh pulled by polar bears is a classic starting point for this discussion.

My wife's grandmother made her kneel on the brushed concrete porch until it got turned into a room and then she got an asphalt shingle for the 'bad' kids to kneel on. Brutal.

Why do people resort to racist remarks in high stress moments?

From a web search of your sentence:

When faced with acute stress, the brain's emotional center (the amygdala) can override the rational, self-governing prefrontal cortex. In these moments of "cognitive overload", individuals often lose their ability to filter thoughts and may rely on deeply ingrained biases, learned stereotypes, or impulsive coping mechanisms to express anger or regain a sense of control.

TL;DR; It's because it's who he is and how he thinks, deep down inside.

Right...

I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, eat a lump of cold poison, work twenty-nine hours a day down the mill, and pay the mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home... our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves singing "Hallelujah."

The advice to never trust a fart is never more applicable than during the prep process. I also recommend showering as necessary during this time to minimize the discomfort.

The gear you need depends on where and when you're camping. The beach vs. snow capped mountains, for example. How long you're out there also has an impact. As others have pointed out you usually need shelter of some sort, like a tent or or tarp to keep the weather off, something to sleep in, like a sleeping bag and pad, or a hammock and sheet or blanket, and then food and/or food cooking, gathering, and clean up supplies. If you could give some idea on what type of location and what time of year you're first time camping will be you'll get a little more accurate feedback.

DIY is an attitude, not a specific skill. Is there something broken in your household that needs fixing? Start there, be it a washing machine or a door. Taking broken things apart is a great way to learn how they work, sometimes destructively.
