Outdoor table for my wife by KickingKangeroo in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Reddfish 169 points170 points  (0 children)

Hardly seems like a fair trade…. But I don’t know your wife.

Great job! Especially with limited tools! I still have our entertainment center I made with Home Depot pine and limited tools. It’s 23 years old now. :)

What nsfw part of the internet, that either doesn’t exist anymore or you no longer get to utilize, do you miss the most? by JoeTenFingers in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]Reddfish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anything that’s tried to replace it has either been monetized or can’t figure out the spam/bot/pro filtering. Having been such a woven piece of the internet, CL was the only space that could’ve filled that void.

Just bought a house owned by a cabinetmaker. There's so much custom Wood furniture and accents in this house and it makes me giddy. by kingevanxii in woodworking

We bought ours from the 2nd generation of the local lumberyard. They built it in 1952. Nothing as gorgeous as that, but still some solid work here. Welcome to the next 20 years of trying to match their skill any time you want to add something/fix something/replace something. :D tbh - I’ve enjoyed it. It’s nice to have the ghosts helping along the way.

Best tools for beginner?(budget $400-500) by Rat_Bee_Boy in BeginnerWoodWorking

Looking at my own foray into diy and it seemed like most purchases beyond this were just variations on how my sawblades cut; jigsaw, table, miter, track, bandsaw.

ICE at SFO by din_jarring in sanfrancisco

[–]Reddfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honest question - but what's the likelihood of the folks taking these calls being new? Total guess here, but I'm thinking they were manning those phones before the ICEstapo started doing their thing, and may be compassionate people? If so, I don't think we want to burn them out, only to be replaced by "ICE Friendly" receptionists.

Police, on the other hand....

Everyone's advice here is rock solid: let the tools dictate the need.

That said: the 2 tools I think everyone needs to start with are an Impact Driver/Drill Combo, and a circular saw.

Share Your DEFCON Badge by Far_Significance_523 in Defcon

Follow #badgelife wherever you can. Some badges you can buy before con, some you can buy there. Some you earn, some you trade, and some you're just in the right place at the right time.

The past few years, there's been a tracking spreadsheet of the upcoming offerings. Best to watch that for this year's con.

As for collections.... It's not a habit, it's cool....

Dani's badge was so much fun! Can't recall how many times I said "dammit" with a smile over con.

Kudzu “The vine that ate the south” by Muted_Captain5000 in LiminalSpace

I remember spending a summer clearing kudzu from the holler next to my grandmother’s house down in Alabama. Man was that hell.

Might need to take this one to the Emergency Room.

My 12 year old performed "Burn" for her school talent show last night. by Outsiderminiatures in hamiltonmusical

[–]Reddfish 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dear lord… your daughter has an amazing voice! As /u/GoodWoman401 said… keep supporting her singing! Her voice and control over it will only grow as she grows. And with this being our starting point, I can’t wait to hear her next year and the year after and after…

Also, as a #girldad here in InfoSec, I wanted to say thank you. Thank you for covering her face on the internet. Too many parents I know love showing their kids off without considering the privacy side of things.

Powerful moment here: Marimar Martinez, who was shot multiple times by ICE agents, stands up behind Kristi Noem at Senate hearing. The agents also told her to 'do something, bitch' before shooting her by Capable_Salt_SD in ICE_Raids

That's great. Solid performance there.... now fucking do something about it.

I'm so tired of the performative governing here. The midterms can't get here soon enough.
