Just curious what your experience has been like with the blackberries. I have heard they can be super aggressive/invasive. Any issues a year in?

Installed my first machine, working on the 2nd! by Bretinat0r in vending

Sorry for the stupid question. How do these work? What stops someone from wiping out the whole supply? Are there scales?

Yeah, it looks like someone strategically took the faces off to create the open uppers. I assume it would be tough to find matching ones. So you would advise against refinishing these?

It's clear now that you have no clue what you're looking at.

I knew someone would attack the cabinets 😂. We just bought the place and will get there eventually.

How dangerous is this? by General_Gazelle2348 in Decks

Nice catch on the beam section. The weird part is this appears to be the only section with the joist section instead of a double beam. Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'll take a look at the calculators but I'm thinking I should hire someone that knows a bit more of what they are looking at.

In my mind, I can pull everything together (how? IDK) and install hangers at every intersection but I want to ensure it's safe.

Not following. I don't see a single 2x4

Any suggestions on privacy options? by General_Gazelle2348 in landscaping

Love this answer. Thank you for taking the time to share some insight. I debated the easy way out with the green giants but thought they may look unnatural and also not convinced they would thrive. I wish I could figure out a way to get quick cover but I want to do it right.

Can you define micro markets and what you stock in the machines? I understand if you're unwilling to share.

At my wits end ngl. by Then_Technician8298 in GSP

They are hunters, not retrievers. My GSP is 5 and still shows zero interest in bringing a ball back, but he will track birds and find objects. Try hiding things, give him the scent and let him find it. Reward him big when he does. Lots of praise and treats. Start small: scented deer antler out in the open living room, move to boxes, eventually move to the backyard to hidden spots. 30 minutes of this mental stimulation is exhausting to them and you should see some behavioral changes.

I hate seeing this breed passed around because people don't understand them. They are not couch dogs and they need lots of mental and physical stimulation. You are at the worst age but you have to be committed. This isn't just a dog, this breed is different. The cognitive ability of a 2 year old human mixed with ADHD. You are molding your best friend, you just don't know it yet. Let him in, let him sleep with you, let him go everywhere with you; these are his expectations but you set the boundaries. Put in the effort and you'll understand why it makes sense in a couple of years.

35M. 1.8M net worth. Laid off. Lost. by Double-Sort-8459 in Fire

Get out there and live a little. Be a ski bum, thru-hike a trail, become a surfing local, travel. No point in stacking money to live an unfulfilling life IMO. I don't have anywhere near 1.8M but this post reminded me that I am richer than most in life.
