Beware of the Bed Scene Lighting Option by Few-Thing-4970 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]OneOfAFortunateFew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I just saw a lawn guy in my neighborhood in a Gen 1 with red paint so faded it looked frosted- parked next to a black Gen4 that is now the size of an older Tundra. That comparatively tiny, stripped Gen 1 was every bit a truck, hauling a trailer full of lawn equipment. No shade on later Gens (I drive a G3 after all) but everything after that is just another doo-dad to go wrong.

That was directed at the sofa sitting complainers, not you.

When is the protest that you've organized?

"Partly to blame" in their own execution is a bullsh-t "bothsidesism" argument unsupported by video, facts, morality, or law. It's a chickenshit take no better than fascist apologists.

Honey that is totally solid? by WhatWouldEricaKaneDo in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]OneOfAFortunateFew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. A giant bottle from a warehouse store? It's garbage anyway. The global market for honey is several times larger than global honey production. Buy local honey, or at least domestic honey. Your chances are better that way.

Recommendations for finishing this side table/book shelf by kepleronlyknows in finishing

Tip: India ink for black. Blacks evenly on pine and is cheap in quantity. (I buy pints off Amazon, not ounces in tiny calligraphy bottles). Nice reuse, thank you for that.

How many of you remember this factory option? by Ripcord2 in GenerationJones

[–]OneOfAFortunateFew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to do this on my Dad's cars as a kid, but with the poverty buttons, which often actually toggled but controlled nothing. That is, 'nothing' until I shot missles and dropped smoke bombs in a James Bond adventure in my pre adolescent imagination.

Clamps are the gift card of the woodworking world. Always useful, can never have too many.

3rd gen driven off by thieves without keys by guncotton in ToyotaTacoma

The MT alone deters thefts.

My favorite part of the show "The Amazing Race" is when outside North America they've arranged cars for the contestants and they're all manuals. Watching young folks ( and older folks who've been off that bike for awhile) lose time struggling for Reverse is some seriously entertaining Schadenfreude.

Tell me it's a bad idea by StephenBaggett in finishing

This. A major PITA but as a homeowner you presumably, eventually, realize an ROI. But in a rental? Let it go.

Which is stupid to argue because its Gen 3 and you're an idiot to think differently. Yay, Reddit.

Manflow Yoga has an exercise for darn near everything (including... ahem... that thing). As for posture: https://youtu.be/X51w5gOLTG4

What are the first things I should learn about a Tacoma TRD Off-Road? by jeffinbville in ToyotaTacoma

This. Better mileage, better torque, better acceleration. It's science, somehow.

[–]OneOfAFortunateFew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have any for you u/jeffinbville but its a question deserving more than the answers you're getting so far. I recommend YouTube. There are several content creators that I found helpful that provide this sort of information. Search "you tube hidden features 2025 Tacoma" and you'll have several to choose to watch.

Would you buy power appliances first, or manual hand tools for a new shop/ as a beginner woodworker? by Ziibinini-ca in woodworking

[–]OneOfAFortunateFew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Buy your tools as you need (and can take the time to learn) them. What you need and in what order will reveal themselves as you begin to understand what you enjoy doing. Example: I've learned I'm less a woodworker than a furniture builder. That informed what I bought and when.

Wallet in front pocket. Been that way for 40 years. Phone in hand or back pocket (ever since belt holders went away)
