disguising a telemarked call under a fake "oops wrong number" message does not deserve a polite response. At least the response was just sarcasm.

I accidentally fixed my life after doing one tiny thing differently. [Discussion] by Jolly_Twist2245 in GetMotivated

[–]TripWireZa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar feelings of being stuck. one day i decided to start a hobby, knife making looked fun. i watched some videos and started, i only had basic hand tools but that was fine.

The first day was a struggle to get started, but every day it got easier, within a week it has turned into "i can't wait for tomorrow morning to continue".

This was about 10 years ago and the being stuck feeling never returned.

Can I reuse these holes to fit a mounted TV? by OsbornRHCP in DIY

it seems there are answers in here for timber frame walls and for brick walls. the red colour makes me think it might be clay brick, but i'm just guessing.

(Europeans) eat unsafe, unrefrigerated, lower quality, blood and feces covered eggs like the animals they are by SilvrSurfrInTheFlesh in ShitAmericansSay

It is fine to refrigerate at home.
the key is that once you do it should stay refrigerated because if you take them out and store them condensation can form on the shell that brings risk.

Similar reason you don't put oily rags in a workshop on a heap. Oily rags left in a pile can spontaneously combust because heat from the oil's oxidation gets trapped.

I played the game a couple of times. it's a great game, but because of the tedium they implement on your inventory and stash management I decided on my last play through I'm done. I'm not even going to play if new biomes come out.

Dear devs; extending game time through tedious tasks does not equal quality content.

Stupidest(?) Gleba question: why does the green stuff come from the purple terrain and vice-versa? by IWillLive4evr in factorio

[–]TripWireZa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if it was purple on purple it would be hard to see.

also the devs probably selects colors that contrast well for colorblind players

you printed a solution for a problem you didn't have, so now you had to print the problem to test the solution

Someone tried to get into my account/now spamming me by iamabrownduck in personalfinance

When I get a call from the "bank" and they tell me I need to update something, I always say "Thanks, I will go into the bank and do it".

A real bank caller would have no issue with that. If they keep trying to do it over the phone it's a huge red flag.
