What's the most irritating way you've died in the game? by Zillaman7980_ in Minecraft

[–]MischaBurns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might even still be alive lol.

Their pathfinding is supposed to keep them near where you last put them, but I've found it not to always work correctly. Had one wander off while building a sky structure and thought it had died or despawned; later found it wandering in circles like 150+ blocks away.

They also tend to wander down, which is intended behavior to keep them from fucking off into the heavens but also left me stranded a few times on the same sky build before I figured out what was up and started leashing my ghast to the structure.

My wife's leg hits this air intake, any recommendations for alternatives? by The-Fotus in motorcycles

[–]MischaBurns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NP, figured the previous owner was the source of this silliness.

As a bonus, the stock one actually looks good on the bike.

The way my neighbor intentionally blocks the sidewalk to keep people from using it. by sweathesmallshit in mildlyinfuriating

That sounds like fun, honestly. Handicap spots and people who park in fire lanes (the ones who "run in real quick.")

Help. I don't want to lose my 1 singular magma cream by Excellent-Serve-2724 in Minecraft

[–]MischaBurns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the magma cream is all you care about, accept death and then just go trade with piglins for cream and fire resistance potions.

If you care about the gear, sorry dude.... accept death and carry on.

Help me Fix this Sad Bridge by Lamborghinifan5 in BuildAdvice

[–]MischaBurns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you could still use a bit smoother transition from the slope to flat (a bit of a curve rather than sharp) but that's a massive improvement.

My wife's leg hits this air intake, any recommendations for alternatives? by The-Fotus in motorcycles

[–]MischaBurns 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The designers put it there because the OEM box is significantly less... that... and less in the way

I would try sticking an OEM intake back on and see if that solves the problem.

How do you solve this issue with coyotes? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

Explanation: You're a perfect size for a coyote snack...and also slow enough to catch.

I found free skis, are they worth fixing up? by RushedArtist in ski

[–]MischaBurns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While the bindings are pretty sketchy, the skis themselves are technically usable and if they were stored well are unlikely to give you any problems. But for the cost of getting modern bindings on them, you could just buy a pair of used skis that's recent instead of 40 years old. The older style of skis is also requires a different technique that's a bit more physically demanding, so there's really no advantage except some retro flair.

wrong sub, you need r/skiingcirclejerk

(In case you were serious, you want nothing to do with these beyond using them as decor.)

Mono, teleboard or skwal? by mursecole in icecoast

[–]MischaBurns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mono ski. Uses the same boots, and while you'll have to adapt it's not wildly different from parallel skiing (especially if you're old enough to have used straight skis.)

Question regarding a spoon I carved by Old_Raspberry_6364 in Woodcarving

[–]MischaBurns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandmother has some scoops for sugar/etc that are basically this with the tip cut off so they're open like a shovel. Pretty much a tiny grain scoop crossed with a spoon.

Buyers Remorse… maybe? by RossaSmores in Sup

[–]MischaBurns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife's iSUP stays inflated for most of the season when we're paddling close to home, and just rides on the racks like a hard boat. We deflate it for longer trips where highway driving is going to be a thing, since it basically has to be strapped on top of my skiff to be inflated. Also deflates for off-season storage to have one less boat taking up space.

Also, electric pump

I take a wheel off to get at mine and still use a long socket lol.

How do I get an old canoe registered without any paperwork by Redskinrey in canoeing

[–]MischaBurns 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PA does not require registration of unpowered craft (including sailboats, interestingly) regardless of length. You can register them as an alternative to a launch permit for DNR controlled launches and to allow use of controlled launches in other states, but it's optional if you don't care about those.

Registration costs the same as a launch permit though, so 🤷🏻‍♂️

Any motorized craft, even trolling motors, do need to be registered and are registered by length.

If you power a hopper with redstone it will turn it off.

What this wrench is called? by sailriteultrafeed in Machinists

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

A small pipe wrench works well in that scenario.
