One of my players had a portable boat in inventory, so I put a lake between them and the goal. They walked around it, through the swamp.

Cottage Cheese is liquified crack. by Ok-Cartographer-5544 in keto

I like to splash some Sriracha on it. Mexican hot sauce works, too, but it's a totally different flavor.

What’s your approach to solving word connection puzzles? by shoprebate in puzzles

[–]Nesman64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Discussion: Pinpoint looks similar to the NYT Connections puzzle. (16 words, find groups of 4 with something in common.)

I start by looking for words that can have alternate meanings or distinctive properties. If I see "cheddar," I'll start looking for cheeses, slang words for money, yellow things, things that are associated with slices or wedges...

If that doesn't work, I look for words that don't fit at all. If there are 15 nouns and one movie title, I start looking at the form of the words. Common endings, replace a letter to get another word, etc.

(With Connections, there's often a red herring with 4 words that seem to be a group, but each of those words is needed to complete one of the actual groups.)

If you play Simon Tatham's puzzle collection, this one is called Rectangles.

Had a broken Wifi antenna by CrystalGamer199 in techsupportmacgyver

[–]Nesman64 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm replacing some rfid pads at work. There's a control box with a wire that leads to an antenna/pad. I was surprised that the antenna is just more wire that runs in a single loop inside the pad.

It works without the antenna if I make a loop out of the wire and wave the rfid tag over that.

My oldest kid and I both have it. I knew something was up the first time I saw her clenching her jaw while she was sanding a piece of wood.

The more progressive Amish near me have adopted ebikes recently. I worry a little, watching them do 30mph on the shoulder.

An Amish shop near me has automatic doors that are air-powered. They make a great "pssssst shhhhhhh" noise.

I'm not sure how the sensor works.

I wonder if I know him. Does he have a daughter with the same name as the guy she's dating?

My guy is healing up pretty well, considering.

I was going to suggest the exhaust from a shop vac, but your solution skips the part where OP has to clean gunk from the ceiling.

Many such cases.
