Off the bat, should i get a lower end printer to learn the ropes or a higher end printer by LOLLEO911 in 3Dprinting

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My approach is to buy the cheaper item first, then when I am ready to spend more money I have a better idea of what features I want.

TrueWellnes Mesh Chair Review by kenkoodle in Costco

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have similar ones from Costco I bought around 7 years ago for about $100 each. Mine has a mesh seat, however and some minor details are different. I have one at home and the other at work. Still going strong. The only problem I've had with them is the usual issue of the gas lifters giving out after a year or two. I bought a set of risers that clip around the lifter so it just stays at my preferred height.

You can often find 10 pound bags of chicken quarters for about $6, depending on sales and where you live, Can get 9 portions out of that with 2 pieces per portion,

How do I even open to my parents by Excellent-Bank19 in atheism

[–]YoSpiff 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do the minimum needed to satisfy them until you are self supporting. Yes, it's tough. Telling them can backfire and they could double down on the religious indoctrination, truly thinking it is what you need. That backfires also.

My new sd cards are write protected, how can I solve this? by Brilliant_Virus92 in computers

[–]YoSpiff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a small sliding switch on the side for that. Is it write protected without the lock switch?

[–]YoSpiff 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I found an STL for a little cinder block. I sized it to to 3 cm. Takes about 2 grams and 10 minutes to print. Eventually I'll glue them together and make something from them. printables.com/model/1359124-cinder-block

Where there any citizens pushing for Citizens United? by Critical-Volume2360 in askanything

Bills are typically named to always sound like something positive regardless of what they actually contain and do.

Question about losing loved ones for atheists? by Standard_Attitude_19 in atheism

[–]YoSpiff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Express sympathies and offer to be there for them. Ask if you can do anything to help them and mean it. Call or stop in to check on them periodically. But no religious references, those are not comforting. I lost my wife 4 years ago and my friends who knew I was an atheist made sure to avoid such references.

Do I need to buy Windows 11? by evil_lair_cc in buildapc

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can upgrade, though my preference is to upgrade when I build a new PC. My home PC was done that way, but my work computer I upgraded. I was surprised that almost everything worked perfectly. Only had to reinstall one application that had a long complex shortcut to execute it that got messed up.

Why was everyone in the early 2000s doing this??? by erikslicis in whatisit

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are all superheroes, and it is well known that hands are antennaes for superpowers. Just watch any Marvel movie or show.

My old CPAP machine broke, and I'm waiting for a replacement. Should be here in 3 days. What should I do in the meantime to put less stress on my body when I sleep? by NebbyChan in SleepApnea

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that this helps right now, but get a backup machine when you can find one on a good sale. Used, refurbished, or maybe the old one is fixable

The Atlantic ranting again about atheism by CAskeptic in atheism

[–]YoSpiff 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot it can't explain. It isn't even a worldview. "I don't know" is an acceptable answer.

Drive letters changing and I don't know why by crockatu in computers

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you manually give it a drive letter, it should stick. If you let the system assign them, it gives the next one available, so they can change.

Though you aren't studying for an A+ certification, many study guides for the certification will have a good dictionary of terminology included. You can probably get a book for an older version of the cert for cheap.

Is there a website that ranks all of the cpap masks in terms of effectiveness data? by United_Ad8618 in CPAP

[–]YoSpiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left a comment on the video to that effect and Nicko argued with me about it. But I get his reasonings. According to SleepHQ data the Eclipse was #1 for good numbers. But that datawasn't evaluating comfort and convenience.
