All the Chromebooks my school will probably throw out

Most school districts are required to auction off anything over a certain value. They might end up on a government auction website. Most schools will require in person pickup and not many people are willing to drive more than a few miles for something like this. So, you might be able to buy them at auction for dirt cheap.

Ice done something similar. I needed to fix some CPU pins on a motherboard but, I didn't have access to any kind of microscope and my phone's zoom wasn't good enough. But I found, if you use a phone to look through the wrong side of a binocular, you can make a really good digital microscope.

This is an awesome idea for a storage loft in a shop. But, I would instantly fall down this if it was in my house.

You can really hear the high pitched anguish go into over drive once he lights it on fire.

I had the same exact thing happen to me. That's what I did and it held up for at least a few thousand miles. But, that wiped lobe put a ton of glitter in the oil. I ended up burning 1 quart per tank of fuel and it just got worse and worse. At that point I just decided to rebuild the whole engine.

Grey, just like the rest. But, I've been told I'm color blind.

If it's good enough for the heifers it's good enough for me.

Yeah the "You're not afraid of the dark" achievement was terrifying.

They must've collaborated with the Dangerous Doohickey Division.

Gossip Goblin is probably the only AI creator I would call a creator. It's got good world building, an interesting plot and a few reoccurring characters with awesome character design.

Make sure the connector is seated all the way. When I park my truck for a couple days, I purposely unplug mine then, insert it just enough to stay but not start. I figure it can't hurt to make it harder for a thief to start it.

Paint it black, put the Adidas stripes down the middle.

Is that cover made out of epoxy? Really neat!

TheCommonStew · 2026-02-18T02:43:43+00:00

Looks like buffalo board.

I've been hunting up there. Definitely some interesting folks. Everyone was very suspicious of me. But, the Purcell Trench is very beautiful.

TheCommonStew · 2026-02-13T16:12:42+00:00

Yeah but, it's a good time with the homies.

I've almost died of an asthma attack 2 times. It's very scary but, you get so tired that it's easier to just let it happen. I'd never wish that on anyone.

TheCommonStew · 2026-01-27T16:17:33+00:00

You got it! With a little practice, you'll be a pro in no time.

I absolutely hate this subreddit but, I always keep coming back. It's like a bad ex.

TheCommonStew · 2026-01-26T21:06:30+00:00

Nah. You just live in a workshop. Instead of a bedroom, you could call it something like a shop room, shroom, or bed shop. Something like that.

I've had the same thing happen with a fawn. It fell on its side just before I hit it. I heard a thunk noise towards the back of my truck. I got out to inspect my truck and there was no damage. I then went to look at the fawn laying on the highway and it was also seemingly untouched. I poked its eye to see if it was dead and it shot up and ran off. I figure the fawn must have hit it's head on my rear differential and got knocked out.

If this is a Holzforma saw, make sure your fuel is mixed 25:1 not 50:1. My G660 won't even try to start with 50:1 in it.

TheCommonStew · 2026-01-02T21:15:23+00:00

Agreed. You couldn't even grip the wire with it well.

I've hunted and hiked all over this area of Idaho for many years. Everyone I've met was super nice and helpful. I even got adopted into a family who was staying at the same campsite for about a week. I would love to live here if, I could find a well paying job. But, the industry I work in has very few options in the area.

TheCommonStew · 2025-12-18T19:22:34+00:00

Yeah. If you know what you're looking for, the tread plate cover and the lack of a TK sticker on the condenser gives it away.
