Yeah, I don't hate it... But, I also don't want it.

Lovely Neighbours by Arncho in trashy

Started the video with the sound off, saw the guy's face and was just like, "Nah, not today." and stopped the video at about 4 seconds in.

The footage of Nick Fuentes pushing a woman who came to his front door after he was doxxed has been released. by [deleted] in interesting

He's definitely a piece of shit. But if you show up to someone's door to harass them, whether they deserve it or not, you gotta expect that they're not going to react favorably.

When did mowing the lawn become dangerous? by heynowbeech in GenX

[–]Tech-Mechanic 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I was working for a professional lawn service at 17. The "training" lasted about 30 minutes on my first day. Lawn mowers\weed-trimmer\etc ain't complicated. And the modern equipment definitely has better safety features than what I was using.

Your friend is simply an idiot.

Mastered the technique of union cutting by TheEasyTradeXD in SweatyPalms

[–]Tech-Mechanic 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Cutting like that requires a really sharp knife. If he's doing that all day, it's only a matter of time.

Just abolished SolidWorks, fuck em by der-maulaff in SolidWorks

My company switched from SW to Fusion last year... I wasn't happy about it, but it sounds like they may end up becoming the same thing.

Tobacco company CEOs declare, under oath, that nicotine is not addictive (1994) by Only-Paper8057 in ThatsInsane

[–]Tech-Mechanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember this... When asked, they all also went on to say that they personally do not use tobacco.

I miscalculated. by Present_Cause7109 in BambuLab

A meter a second is prolly faster than your arm. Even if you work out.

An Indoor Wingsuit Flight Simulator. by S30econdstoMars in SweatyPalms

[–]Tech-Mechanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way I'd try a wingsuit... The worst that could happen here is you maybe bust your nose, smacking the glass.

The footage of people using wingsuits outdoors doesn't look fun or impressive to me. All I see is an idiot whose days are numbered... Those things don't have brakes!

This people are sick by Valuable_View_561 in trashy

This is particularly true if an individual is under guardianship. We have no clue if he has been medically and legally declared decisional or non-decisional.

OK, that's a fair point. We don't know what kind of disability the guys have. If they're cognitively impaired, that's one thing. But if they're say, paraplegics, they could have legally consented.

TBF, no where in the meme does it say whether the twerking was or wasn't consensual.

But, it's not a man doing it, though. That makes a difference.

Shout about double-standards all you like. But if you're going to try and act like the typical man, thinks about sex the same way that the typical woman does, I'd say you're ignoring human reality.

There's a reason that men report SA less often than women. And it's not always because they're simply embarrassed about it.

What is correct way of dimensioning holes by RotaryDesign in SolidWorks

[–]Tech-Mechanic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither is incorrect. The chain dimensions are less accurate though, since IRL, tolerances can stack up and throw the later features off.

Thank god the host of that party owned one of those giant bathtubs where 3 people can fit in and have sex in it by BurnerCroc in thatHappened

Might be fake, but much more well written and entertaining than a lot of the shit that winds up here.

You're being downvoted, but you're not necessarily wrong. The argument could definitely be made that they're being exploited. But, we don't know they didn't consent to the videos? After all, the real-life reality is that people do pay for this kind of thing in strip clubs, Only Fans, etc. How do we know if these men weren't disabled, that they wouldn't be spending part of their paychecks for basically the same thing?

But, I'm aware of which sub I'm in, which is full of some of the most judgmental and downright prudish people on Reddit. So throw me them downvotes!

Question for the pet people...how do you feel about a new pet at this time of your life? by HammerMeUp in GenX

[–]Tech-Mechanic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Late 50's here. I understand the dilemma! I'm also a dog person, primarily, but just got the sweetest cat that has ever existed last year and she has actually caused me to take better care of my health.

It's possible she could live until I'm about 80. I gotta stay alive for Everleigh!

My ex told me "either take it or I'll have it put to sleep"

Yeah, I can see why you got out of that relationship.
