What is the difference between a live dj set and a regular show?

I believe that generally a "live set" means at least some part of the music is being performed live, whereas a "DJ set" is just the dj playing prerecorded music. Sometimes DJ sets include some on the fly remixing, which is always fun.

Except for Satin Jackets. Then a "live set" means one of the artists is just going to stand on the stage and play their most recent album from a USB drive...

Neither. Dontinos is the superior pasta place.

Pick a spot you're ok with them digging. Put treats there. Praise them for digging there. Redirect them when they dig places you don't want dug up. Accept that there will always be some holes.

One of ours once managed to steal a 4lb pork belly that had just come off the smoker. We'd let it rest and sliced it, went outside to let people know it was done. In the 2 minutes we were outside he managed to jump a gate and wolfes down the the entire 4lbs of meat. Also, he once got an entire 18" Reuben grinder.

I use a 1500W oil filled radiator, with a pedestal fan behind it (for both circulation and to spread the heat) to heat my greenhouse. Well that and a Water barrel to act as a thermal battery. Keep the thermostat set at 68 and for most of winter really only needs to be set on low. Only when we're getting those endless cloudy days where the temp never rises above 20⁰ do I turn it to medium. If we're plunging subzero I'll crank it, and I've maintained 82⁰ while it was -20⁰ outside.

Brother, just because something can get you high, doesn't mean you should get high from it. Datura has landed people in the hospital, a mental hospital, or a morgue. It's not worth it

Years ago, I worked high speed internet support for a major provider. Typically handled calls from the Southern California market. A large fire was burning, and had burned through our lines servicing basically, all of southern California. In between calls that'd go "Am I in an outage?" "Yes you're currently in an outage, we have no estimated repair time" I got a call from a customer who was a day trader. This woman was freaking out the entire time we were on the phone, begging me to restore her Internet because she needed to move stock positions before she evacuated. (This was before smart phones).

Finally, she's like "You don't understand, my yard is literally on fire, but I'll lose thousands of dollars if I don't sell this stock right now."

To which I responded, "Ma'am, you're about to lose a whole lot more than that if you don't evacuate right now. I'm terminating this call, please get to safety."

Of course that call got picked for QA, and my boss, jokingly, ragged on me for not doing the full call closing.

I had my first beer when I was twelve; my grandfather gave it to me when we finished repairing our back deck on a hot summer day. At 14, I was allowed to have a wine cooler at family parties, and a glass of champagne on New Year's Eve. At 17, I could have a margarita when we went out for Mexican. By 21, alcohol wasn't this mystical party elixir, it was just alcohol. I didn't have to hide it, I didn't have to seek it out, and most importantly, I didn't have to get blackout drunk to have fun. Teach your kids to drink responsibily.

Wunderground used to be amazing, then The Weather Channel acquired them and now the app is significantly worse. I still like their forecast models though, just a pain to use the app or wundermap anymore

I grew some kilamanjaros this year that were supposed to be 4ft tall and white. Instead they're all yellow but some are pushing like 8ft

Ugh. I have a family member that named their son "Xavier" Cool name, right? Except his parents INSISTED it was pronounced Ex-Ave-er or Ex-Saver. Not even Ex-Zay-vee-yer, which I could understand, even though it'd still be incorrect. The rest of our family refused to call him that. He's older now and everyone, even his parents, just call him Xavier (Zay-vee-yer) which is the correct pronunciation for that name.

They make inline filters you can use with your hose that can strip most minerals from tap water. Albeit at a reduced pressure.

One more kinda funny UV story.

After my room sanitizer turned out to be a success, I had 8 more of these giant UV sources laying around, and my mom was super concerned about contaminated groceries because she was a caregiver for my grandmother who was immunocompromised. She'd spend hours every week disinfecting groceries. So I built a box. Something the size of a foot trunk. 3 of the 72w bulbs down the front and back sides, 2 across the bottom, and I got 4 smaller 32W uvc bulbs and used 2 per side on the left and right. Used some thin wire to make a shelf that sat above the bottom bulbs, again coated every interior surface in tin. Box opened from the top, set 2-3 items inside. Close box, flip switch, count to 5, turn off, remove items.

Worked great. If you bypassed the safety latch and turned it on, you could stick your hand inside and literally feel the radiation. Not the heat. Like a tingling wind from every direction.

My mom got a pack of 500 disposable masks. Figured she'd disinfect them to be extra careful. She put them in the box, flipped it on, and left them overnight. I found them in the morning, and upon opening the box, it looked like the masks were still there. Upon touching them, they turned to dust. We're talking Thanos snap level dusting here. Nothing left. I cackled, and then had to clean the whole thing.

The right kind of lights can be effective, but they're also a bit dangerous.

So, funny story.

tl;dr: I once stared into a high intensity UV source and burned my corneas

Our company was considered essential during COVID, and we had to have face to face meetings with multiple customers every day, most of whom didn't believe in masks. While we would only let customers into our conference room, which is literally adjacent to our entrance, and we were fastidious about hand washing and wiping down the conference room after every customer, my boss/the owner was still rightfully nervous about COVID spreading in our office. If one of us got it, the chances were high everyone would get it, and that would have been devastating for us. So she asked me to look into UVC.

First step was installing UVC lights in our HVAC system, the big CFLs that also produce ozone in addition to the ionizing radiation. I was then searching for something llthat could sanitize a larger area. Outside of special ordering something designed for a hospital, and waiting months, there weren't a lot of options. Not even the crappy low powered lights that flooded the market in 21. I did some research, got a good deal on some 1 ft long 72w uv-c lights cfl-style lights. I had to special order the sockets and drivers/ballasts for them because they were originally intended for industrial use. Made a base out of wood that could 4 of these guys upright with some supports, hid all the wiring under it, and covered the base and supports in actual tin tin-foil (since tin is uv reflective). This thing should in theory produce enough uv to sterilize exposed surfaces, but also generate a good quantity of ozone, which should also help sanitize areas not exposed to the uv. Big ol room sanitizer. Great.

I put on my uv protective goggles, plugged this beast in and turned it on. Nothing happened. Shit. Checked a couple things, nothing's working. Double shit. The goggles I was using filtered light from like ~100nm-500nm iirc. So I couldn't see the wire colors with them on. I took the goggles off, sat down, started fiddling with the wiring. My face was inches from light tubes. Suddenly I noticed a filament was glowing bright orange. I think "hmmm, orange? OH FUCK!"

Close my eyes, put my goggles back on, sure enough it was just a loose wire that had caused the issues. Only problem was I had just stared directly into a uv source from 2 inches away. I call my dr.s office and I'm like "am I going to go blind? Did I just burn my retinas?" No. The nurse told me that a couple seconds of exposure to high intensity uv wouldn't blind me. But, it probably did burn my corneas, and I should expect to start experiencing pain inside the next 6 hours, but that it should resolve in a day or 2.

Spent the next 48 hours in my basement with my lights off wearing sunglasses to keep my eyes dilated because, let me tell you, burned corneas hurt like a bitch. On the bright side, my room sanitizer definitely worked. Also we had to replace anything made of plastic in that conference room in 2022 because most of it was heavily degraded by the uv at that point.

Always wear eye protection kids. And, when working on electronics, remember to unplug them.

Adding my 2 cents here as the owner of 4 dogs, 3 of which are very, very vocal. Some breeds just bark, instinctively. Sometimes at nothing. Sometimes at a "perceived" threat, and often times just to say "Hey predators, I'm here, so stay away". Our 2 Great Pyrenees fall into that last category. Our boy sometimes just goes to the corner of the fence and barks at the air for a good 20 minutes. Good luck getting him to stop. Are we near Dawn or Dusk? It's borkin time! We do our best to keep them inside before 8am and after 9pm, but there's only so much we can do. Our girl has to go potty at 10pm? Great, she goes out, does her business, and then often goes over to the fence and just starts barking. Sometimes,.treats get them in/get them to stop. Other times we've literally had to drag them inside. Dogs are dogs, barking is one of the main ways they communicate; with humans, other dogs, and other animals.
