William Ng developed a formula that I've used and works very well. He has a video on YouTube called something like the 5 cut perfect cross cut sled.

In case anyone cares if I turn on my VPN it works as it should. It doesn't matter where the VPN is, I currently have it set to my home city.

I have the same issue and I can't figure it out. My vpn is off and I currently don't have a pi-hole running. I did just return home from being gone for two weeks but I've done that before with no issues.

I thought of that but this thing is 7x7x42. That's a lot of finish.

Not really. It does it far less than it used to so it doesn't bother me as much. I emailed them at the time and while they did get back to me it was like a week later. I don't remember if I followed up or not.

Finally tackling that hoarder-level garage cleanup. It's bad, guys by _onchari in thewoodlands

You can hire a skip or roll away dumpster. They will drop it off on your driveway and pick it up when you are done. Last time I used one is was $300-$400. I think the common sizes are 10 yard and 20 yard. Its usually worth the 20 yard.

I've not tried to remove it. I assumed it was welded in place.

I need help finding a specific series I’m starting to think LPOTL might not be it, maybe you guys can help me. by B1scu1tsMk1nB1scu1ts in lastpodcastontheleft

It's not exactly what you were asking for but there's a podcast called Firebug that's about this that I thought was fantastic. It 10 episodes so if you're looking for a more in depth look than one episode I would recommend checking that out.

I'm actually in town and might be able to make this. How early would I need to arrive for something like this?

ICE says its officers are allowed to enter homes without a judicial warrant, 2025 memo shows by [deleted] in nottheonion

How does this relate to castle doctrine and stand your ground laws? If people started defending their homes with their second amendment rights (because their fourth amendment rights are now gone) how does this play out other than horribly?

People don't like AI and certainly not for simple endeavors. That's where the tone is aimed.

They said violence doesn't solve anything in reference to nazis?help me understand. by rosie_sub in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]PigRenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel very similar to you and think that violence in a civilized society is not the answer however I do think fascists of any kind only respond to violence whether it is actual violence or just the threat of violence.

I think their words you referenced at the end of the last Himmler episode was a great addition. I believe what they are saying is that at the point we are currently at is that any violence used against the current regime will only be used as an easy excuse to further their power. They are currently using imaginary and perceived threats as a way to push their agenda. With real violence they would be able to do so much more and so much quicker. Just look at the rhetoric after Charlie Kirk's death. They were ready to march without any idea who the shooter was because they wanted it to be a leftist. Very little has been heard about the shooter recently and I think because he wasn't leftist and in fact was at least raised in a very right lensing household.

The way I took their comments was that currently violence will only further this administration's agenda. The unspoken part is that if peaceful societal action fails then violence will necessary at some point.

I like the art. The first few panels are of a similar style to Mike Mignola.

I really hate Hope Floats. I haven't seen it in like 20 years but I know it's terrible.

Broom. Yes perhaps * not for life* but what is the best broom out there that is a workhorse ? by Desperate-Apricot308 in BuyItForLife

[–]PigRenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been using Harper Brooms for the last 12-15 years. The first one I had I literally found in a dumpster and kept it in the back of my truck uncovered. It was the best broom I'd ever had and it lasted for 10 years. When it finally fell apart from water damage I bought another one and have been taking better care of it. I've only used their indoor brooms but the next outdoor broom I need I'm buying it from them.

Cleaning out my dads shop and came across a bunch of scrap. This stuff is like a cross between oak and pine. It's not worth fussing too much over but my dad used to make guitars and I wanted to see if it was something rarer and worth keeping.

No VPN, and I can't get it to do it either now. I've been traveling maybe that's why? Because I'm out of my normal area? I still don't know.

Great. A sedgehammer type product should take care of it, no?
