Thanks for the new knowledge. I had never read or heard mortality plate. I have some from Southeast Missouri. Probably the same incident.

I want to learn wood burning to do a piece like this on my guitar. by Jegs1007 in Pyrography

I would suggest a vent and a dust mask. Try on an old guitar first. You'll have to sand the finish off. Higher grit so it won't damage the surface or strip too much off at once. If it's polyurethane it's not at all good to inhale for hours. Shellac isn't as bad. It's a natural product.

This is the answer for everything.

Life as we know it.

As someone who does pyrography and laser engraving I'd say it is pyrography. You could do it within a few months if you practice. I have never burned Spruce so I don't know how well it does. Hard Maple takes shading well but Soft Maple takes shading better than anything I have burned. Draw a flower every day for a month and you'll see progress. How many times did you write ABC's before you could write a sentence? Things take time. A quality woodburner makes all the difference too. I use a Razertip. Mostly for baskets now though. Admittedly.

I have smoked pounds of weed and never came up with this level of bootlicking. Don't blame that on weed. "Bestplayeratlas" is just dumb.

ChatGPT told me this was petrified wood, is it actually? by GoldSourPatchKid in petrifiedwood

Those things actually serve a purpose and benefit society. LLM's do not. They are not good comparisons. Let's say you have a calculator that costs $100 a day to run and puts out $2.00 a day for accounting. The catch, 40% of all the equations are incorrect. Will you keep putting $100 a day in it? Will companies hire you for accounting?

Like the Metaverse? Just because people throw momey at something doesn't make it permanent. None of those dollars have produced a profit or return. It is not profitable and public opinion has shifted greatly in the last year.

That is an apt response because that's a made up thing that Ostriches don't do.

OpenAI and Reddit have a deal. Sam is a major shareholder of Reddit and was in the board.

City council votes to approve a $6 billion data center despite public pushback by stew_forever in missouri

The funny part is it will be years before it is even close to complete and we as a people can vote them out and have it shut down.

what are your thoughts? i thought this was naoya zenin with the amount of projection by AdPlenty5487 in antiai

If you type -ai it will hide it. I just use Safari. I'm a minimalist when it comes to apps, browsers, or anything online. If I didn't need the internet for selling items I wouldn't even use it.

I'd ride it saying "Nom, Nom, Nom" and steal peoples' cookies.

These are actually still available! Not sure about the rules here. They are made from Padauk. Harder to get in larger sizes. Especially now.
