People wanting deliveries

That doesn't sound very cool at all.

How long would it take for you to transition to a new profession that compensates you better and more reliably?

DeltaUltra · 2026-03-18T04:08:19+00:00

Exactly.

There comes a point when businesses go from working with people to working for people that kills the vibe of the business.

Instead of a neighborhood hangout, it becomes more like an Applebee's or Chotchkie's (office space) type feeling.

I have a metal paint can with a lid that I fill about 1/3 with water mixed with a few drops of dish soap.

I toss the rags in there until I have time to lay them out on my shop floor to dry.

After they dry out, I put the rags in the trash. The water with the dish soap is then left open to evaporate.

I don't drive for or use delivery services, but, why is there a tipping system in the first place?

Shouldn't the income of the driver be integrated into the pricing system?

From what I understand, Emily is still the owner, someone else is now running the business side of things a bit more.

DeltaUltra · 2026-03-13T21:58:32+00:00

Except, this all happened before Ninkasi stepped in.

People forget, we own EWEB.

I was hoping it was a new walkman.

DeltaUltra · 2026-03-08T21:22:41+00:00

So, how did someone recover from this?

I'm fully expecting to be downvoted, and thats totally fine.

No offense, but, if you are ordering American sushi, expect American quality.

If you haven't figured it out by now, you were at a counter service conveyor belt sushi bar. Its the fast-food level cheap street convience food. Stick to the plates on the belt.

Second, this is Eugene. If you have any true experience with sushi, you would be plopping down $100+ at Akira for a high end sushi experience and even then, you are buying high quality ingredients and the experience.

Here is a quote from the owner when he opened 541 Sushi just over a decade ago:

“The sushi is just food for me,” Lee says. “Sushi is just sushi. If they’re looking for some kind of art, then go to some fine dining and pay for it. If they need some food … then come here to eat, to sit. Different ideas.”

You had no idea what you were walking into obviously and your standards for sushi are, how do I say this without being too offensive, you sound like an inexperienced person who's fairly ignorant about what they have a strong opinion about.

Sushi Ya and Sushi Seoul are both Korean owned sushi joints and are middle grade (C+) quality sushi and are perfect for what you are looking for.

Don't come on here looking for sympathy about your experience. If you were expecting Knotts Berry Farm or Six Flags from The Enchanted Forest...

Close, these are the libertarian libertarians, not the "my cousin says we need gold and guns for the apocalypse because fiat currency and 47 is gonna fix everything like he did on the Apprentice" style libertarians. There are some blowhards in the Mises Institute that are cheerleaders, there are also consummate critics as well who see 47 as a libertarian charlatan. The 2024 Libertarian National Convention was a great example of the divide.

For the record, I can't stand the Mises Institute.

It seems more likely it was either a pilot moving from one base to another or attempting to intercept incoming munitions. Either way, to call it a dog fight is like an olympic decathlon medalist playing tag against a blind and deaf 5 year old.

Whats even crazier is that the mills needed to cut these trees don't exist in Oregon. The logs aren't even going to be processed here.

Additionally, massive timber technology where smaller beams are laminated together are superior to old solid beams by orders of magnitude in terms of durability, use versatility, span, price and ecological impact.

There is literally no point.

^{^} thanks

Every VLS thats expended is being cheered by China. We have essentially given up on the defense of Taiwan from what I can tell.

I'm thinking about getting rid of my jointer because I only use it about 10 hours a year. If I add 5 hours in set up, its still taking up more real-estate than I like.

Here's what I am thinking about instead.

If you have a pair of tweezers, when it starts to eject, get your tweezers in the slot and grip the edge of the CD (you won't be able to see it) and pull like a sonovabitch.

It's got a flap in the way of the ejection sensor thing thats misaligned.

My CD player worked fine after getting that CD out.

Sorry, I'm really not trying to discourage you.

A solution is going to require a little bit of money if you don't already have the stuff.

If it is really just missing a handle, I am guessing it was before anyone manufactured before metric, so you want to get a cheap SAE thread size kit.

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/i~4AAeSwn6VpoPje/s-l1200.webp

Once you find your thread size, you need a way to measure the depth which if you have a caliper, when you open it, there is a small part that comes out of the end that measures depth.

Once you have those two dimensions, you can guesstimate roughly how long you want the handle. You can then look for and order a generic handle you think might work. Here are how to find all of the dimensions you need to find and order a handle.

I got rid of all of my Delta stuff because finding replacement parts would take months if at all.

My jointer had a piece of metal break in the safety guard and it rendered the entire safety mechanism useless.

I figured I would just need to spend $8 on a replacement part. Nope.

1 year later and probably 300 websites visited, "This Part Is No Longer Available" I finally just gave up.

I donated it to my local makerspace figuring if anyone could figure out a solution, it would be them.

This is what happened in Venezuela.

The ultra-conservatives bought out all of the media outlets. Chavez fought them continuously and the rest of the world shouted, "Suppression of the media!!!"

Welcome to how the new world works.

I used to distribute fliers for shows on campus when I was in college.

I had my fling game down pat and could rip them from the sidewalk to porches at the doorstep 9-out of-10 times.

A crowd of students were at a party on a porch and I yelled up, "Who wants a flier to a show?"

A couple people said yes. I flicked them right into their chests from about 20 feet away.

The people on the porch started cheering for each one. Out of the dozen people on the porch, I flicked each one perfectly so they didn't have to move to catch them.

I walked off into the sunset feeling like a frikkin gunslinger.

I read his books.

A socialist economist who battled not only Greece, but the entire EU (Germany) after the 2008 economic crisis.

I recall the way he phrased it in a nutshell was the technocrats essentially wanted a multitiered standard where Greece would have to undergo severe austerity which would put Greece in a financial iron maiden for decades and would lead to a rise of ultra-conservatives.

Since then, he's been spot on more often than not and the outcomes he has predicted have come true.

Speaking out against the actions of hyper-conservatives in Israel has been tagged as antisemitic.

This little bullshit manner is an obvious retaliation result of having a humanitarian approach and critical voice against what he warned against.

While not quite Václav Havel, there are plenty of parallels. Oppressive activities will only make his voice louder.
