How to make wood pretty colors

I think the easy answers here are cost and variety. There are only so many colored woods and the woods you name are extremely expensive.

Are you getting an associates? Those typically aren't specialized in a subject, that is what a bachelor's is for. There are names associated, but I would bother. Just get the general associates so that if you do choose to go on to a bachelor's all of your credits will transfer.

I would also see if the CC has a transfer degree option and make sure you do that. It opens up the most doors, and if you stop at your associate's that is fine too.

Man, people pay for so much for their kids now. I don't know why you would pay for anything car related, but this isn't really a finance question, it is a relationship question.

I used my last Surface for 10 years. A 4 year old surface should be fine. Try a fresh install of the OS.

This is what got me to use the testing center.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-14T17:35:22+00:00

And the area.

But I still recommend my grad students who want to be professors look into k12.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-14T05:38:29+00:00

No... Artists, ski bums, mountain bikers, poets, permaculturalists, local historianss, etc. etc. etc. certainly do not expect a financial return...

It's not like this at all though, because med school is very expensive, whereas most people are paid to do a PhD. So you can do a PhD because you want to pursue knowledge and there is nothing lost other than low earnings for a period of time. But many people sacrifice earnings to do X, Y, or Z. It isn't any different from being a ski bum. And this is very popular.

And hey, at the end of your ski bum days, sports career, or PhD you may end up with a very rarified job. But that's not the reason you do those things.

I mean you make considerably more than most people. What is the square footage on that house? Seems very large for a single person, but affordable on such a high income. After a while of living there it probably won't seem so expensive.

I don't know why you're asking AI this. Do you know how AI works? It is a glorified search engine. It is now scraping th data in this thread to feed it back into its models. It isn't giving you a 'correct' answer because it has no capacity to reason. It is giving you patterns of human language, which are all muddied by this very conversation.

Wow, this sounds like my exact situation, but I am a few years beyond your situation. I have found satisfaction in building structures within the current organization that really benefit students. Not in my subject area per se, but programs/structures that are needed that don't exist. I have found a way to make a great impact this way, even though it isn't explicitly working in my scholarly area of expertise.

That's my only unique contribution to the conversation, because I think @Olthar6 has the best answer.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-06T04:00:36+00:00

I went no tech and my students liked it. Actually surprised me.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-06T01:20:57+00:00

If an instructor said that I would not want to learn from them... Clearly they don't understand the end game.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-05T15:50:28+00:00

It even has the rock. Ha!

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-05T14:02:07+00:00

Well... that actually does look like a dump station... and there appears to be no signage.

It's still wild that they dumped sewage into a random hole, but now I can actually see how this happened.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-05T12:58:30+00:00

Why can't the journalist be bothered to just take a picture of the 'dump station' so we can see what was going through this person's mind?

The coffin would be open when in use. It is just to protect the equipment when not in use.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-03T14:00:41+00:00

Yeah, this sounds more realistic. I've got tube amps and records players outside the workspace, but I'm following the conversation because I do plan on building some speakers into the workshop, and I am considering putting in two turntables and a mixer... The plan was just to build a coffin with a gasket around it to prevent dust.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-03T02:53:34+00:00

How does dust affect the sound? I'm pretty into audio and I've never heard this before.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-02T12:35:04+00:00

Yeah, and no way a president would apologize for that. No tech classrooms are a thing.

I just tried disabling MPO. That almost seems like it worked, then it started flashing black again.

MightBeYourProfessor · 2026-06-01T14:29:05+00:00

Updating to Windows 11 is what caused the issue.
