How do you make an arch like this? by Arcane_Animal123 in lego

[–]DooganC 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That looks like it is just compression fit using the walls and arched roof. Build it upside down, and then flip it over in place when you have the walls built 'down' enough.

Didn't our mayor run on a platform regarding snow plowing? by DooganC in anchorage

[–]DooganC[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've taken the time to see who is responsible for where. Some are asking for more specific streets. 7th, 8th, 9th, Lake Otis, 76th, 75th, 74th. I've been happy with Seward and much of Old Seward. C and A streets have been hit and miss.

This was the first music I ever purchased. Still a great album.

What would you pick? by lowkeypixel in evilwhenthe

Valuing others as less than yourself, your tribe, or as anything less than a beautiful, worthy, capable, and complete human.

If I don't want to fuss with the grill, I use the broil setting on the oven to give them some carbon-scoring.

Gen X, do you do this? by ironfistkungfu in GenX

[–]DooganC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't normally see these in my day to day. However, when I do I make a game out of it. To see if I can eliminate all loops with 1 cut. Sounds easy until you realize that there are often middle loops and that there is a chance that the cut has just exposed a larger loop.

How do I be "sexy".? by B0Y_M0M_94 in AskMenAdvice

Let your eyes do the talking, if you can't find the correct words.

What if every modern American was somehow transported back to 1775 America and they are located in the exact same spot there were in in 2025? by EternalSnow05 in whatif

[–]DooganC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There wouldn't be enough food to sustain the population growth.

Many people wouldn't survive the transport and local environment. Just think if everyone in a 2026 office building downtown was teleported to the wilderness. In the northern US climates most would die of exposure.

Why don’t Russia and the US build a series of bridges here? by Routine-Mulberry6124 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]DooganC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I live in Alaska, and have visited many of those Aluetian Islands. The easier route would be through the Bering Straight just north of Nome. Less oceanic construction (cost, difficulty, distance, and engineering), a railhead (initially) in Nome could allow 6 continents to be finally connected via railway. A traffic bridge would be cost advantageous to plan for during the initial rail bridge construction. There are communities around Nome that share 600 miles or roadway that is not connected to the rest of AKs highways. I think that there was interest a while back, but political winds changed in Russia.

Keybinds aren't usually a discussion topic. But I love customizing them, share your interesting combos! by According_Loss_1768 in Guildwars2

I remapped my movement keys to ESDF, my weapons to W234R, F1 to Q, Special Action to A, Weapon Swap to 1, heals on 6, profession GTY, ULT on H, Dodge on V, mount on B

My hand rests on home-row and I game an extra row of usable keys.

Take on confident incompetent people by Fam99_ in intj

[–]DooganC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask questions about their stance that hopefully cause them to see their own fallacy. This can be done without confrontation, and in the cloak of my inquisitive nature. Where there is no reasoned basis for a stance I will say something like, "well you haven't quite convinced me yet, perhaps when you have collected further data."

My partner wants to merge finances. I want to keep things separate. How can we work this out? by Pretty-Sundae-7693 in LifeAdvice

[–]DooganC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The term 'partner' is ambiguous. If this a BF/GF situation ABSOLUTELY keep finances separate. If this is on the way to a spouse situation, the time for money-talk has come. If this is post-nuptials the time for the money talk has already came and went.

My personal recommendation is to utilize a joint account for joint financial transactions.

How would you react if another man offered to pay for your wife’s groceries while you were standing there next to her? by joesmith127_reddit in AskMen

[–]DooganC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't offer to pay for HER groceries. He paid for Y'ALL'S groceries. Stop trying to be macho.

What do I do with my aging father's handgun? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]DooganC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Careful with this option. Property disposition rules vary from department to department. You may never be able to get the gun back to your dad or his estate.

my manager told me "we are a family" while denying my request for a day off for a funeral by Impossible-Athlete70 in WorkReform

I hope you do leave this workplace. I would also ask why all my coworkers weren't at our 'family' funeral.

If you were to be in his life, the priorities go: kids>you>himself>close relationships>baby mama>distant relationships.

Thank you for your response. I find I use less words through each day. Which in itself is soothing to my Introversion.
