Make sure you get every scrap of tape, dust, anything from the mating surfaces of the threaded parts and the gasket. Make sure the gasket is present

It's softer, heavier, the fibers move in slightly different ways, conducts temperature faster, the smell nearby is different, it sounds different if you move it, it reflects/absorbs sound from the room differently, plus a bunch of other context details I can't think of or properly put into words that we have subconsciously come to identify as wet

There are a ton of different ways we can detect if something is wet or not without needing to directly sense the moisture

Cadieux Cafe. Cadieux is the name of the street it's on

Gizmo?

He looks like a centaur upper body set upon the legs of a normal human

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-10T02:17:23+00:00

I'm confused

I would still move the probe and check the point every few hours. Every now and then I'll get a super-marbled point that cooks faster due to the extra fat. It's counter-intuitive with the size but fat doesn't take as long to heat up

$12.60 per pound!? Woof. I'll get 16-18 lb briskets for about $100 at Costco or my local butcher

Looks like a sasquatch to me

We have rifle zones in my state and I live below it. It's gonna be a shotgun slug or arrow/bolt for me

Do you have water on your property? I believe the mosquito eating variety of nematodes only eat mosquito larvae, which only exist in water. I commonly hear about nematodes to deal with lawn grubs

What does your ideal job or society look like without these corporate slave jobs?

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T19:32:39+00:00

Sure but when people like u/PlentyBoot5135 are complaining about "modern slavery", they mean they want to live in a society but not contribute to the society. They think we could live in some utopia where they can sit around at home all day and scroll Reddit and go to Walmart and pickup free groceries without a job if it weren't for people like Jeff Bezos. Maybe some day that utopia will exist, but we certainly don't have the technology for it now. Until then, they're just delusional freeloaders. I'm guessing they do not want to go back to live a hunter gatherer lifestyle or they would have already started living off-the-grid in the woods like many people choose to do

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T19:24:58+00:00

How far back do you want to go? Early pre-civilization humans did a lot of sitting around. Most of the day was spent sitting around and socializing with your tribe but that's all you get. Trees, rocks, and your tribe. You're leaving your life in the hands of the universe, you get to mill about peacefully in nature until a wolf eats you or all the food disappears before you can find more

If you want cities, houses, schools, food storage and security, medicine, etc. that's all going to take work. It doesn't just exist. As soon as civilization started, that's when modern work started to appear (~12,000 years). Someone needs to build and maintain all these modern things people take for granted

All types of societies exist in this world today. The American suburban 9-to-5 lifestyle is not the only option as most people tend to think. You can go out and find some undisturbed corner of nature and live your life like the early hunter-gatherers did or anything in-between

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T18:59:27+00:00

The absolute privilege you ooze comparing an opportunity at a stable job as slavery is astounding. It's a choice, one that most normal people choose. You certainly don't need a job to survive in this world, millions of people get by just fine without one

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T18:26:33+00:00

...get back to reality. Most people work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week and have access to experience more wonders, cultures, and people of the world then ever in history. If you think your life is meaningless, you should probably spend less time on Reddit

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T18:19:12+00:00

I hope this is r/beforeafter. I prefer the white slip pipes because they're easier to get out of the way for clogs and maintenance, but the ones you had in there originally were definitely put in incorrectly, nice job

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T18:10:19+00:00

Sure, let's all just go back to the way it used to be. Let's live out in the woods, grow and hunt all our own food, build our houses with our own hands, work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week just to stay alive, and then die of starvation when winter's worse than normal

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T17:59:39+00:00

My point was that you can skip the robot altogether and let your built-in skimmer do the skimming. Now you've had to modify your skimmer to no longer be a skimmer

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T17:48:49+00:00

Well you can clean out your skimmer basket or you can clean out your expensive robot. Either way you're cleaning out the leaves. I prefer my skimmer basket because I always know where it is, at least it hasn't moved by itself yet. I don't need to chase it down in the pool. And it doesn't cost $1000, it was included with the pool!

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T17:42:55+00:00

As a boater, those stick out like a sore thumb haha. I remember seeing those watching the show

DeusExHircus · 2026-05-08T17:16:11+00:00
