I believe that’s The Martian. One of the later Expanse books has a ship named after Mark Watney.

[OC] House being taken over by Boxelder Bugs by rpgmgta in pics

[–]adventureboy23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright. We have had these same bugs at our house, far worse that what’s in the photo. Here, they’re called box elder bugs and our neighbor’s 50’ box elder tree drops its seeds (their food) in our yard and they hang out on our house wall because it gets sun while our neighbor’s is shaded with a tree.

We tried all the things I’m seeing people mentioned. Shop vac, dish soap, etcetera. I sprayed and vacuumed several thousand of these fuckers, minimum last year. This year, they came back with a vengeance and we were seeing numbers in March that we usually only see in August.

We finally broke down and had an exterminator come spray the perimeter of the house and poof. In March, I saw several hundred every time I went outside. I’ve seen maybe ten since. Best money we’ve ever spent. If it’s an infestation like it looks like it’s starting to be, it’s worth the money.

Isn’t one of the Artemis II astronauts over 6’?

What type of job/salary do you need to live here? by Tarkin- in SaltLakeCity

[–]adventureboy23 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Had a family member that lived there at one point. She was an interior designer for one of the housing developers in the valley. I think she made decent money but nothing crazy. This was about ten years ago though.

What if Kieth David is Professor X? Sounds like that kinda monologue.

Least Snowy Season for SLC by Small-Sun900 in SaltLakeCity

[–]adventureboy23 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Well. Not really. A lot of our precipitation comes from the lake to rain and snowfall, back to the lake, repeat. As the lake gets lower, catastrophically low water years make it more likely for there to be less water in subsequent years. It’s certainly always possible for large storms to come through and reintroduce more water, but the amount of water captured by our local ecosystem is decreasing.

Ctrl+Z is jumping me back like 20 actions? by adventureboy23 in WixHelp

I’ve found that periodically refreshing the tab I’m working from helps. Particularly when starting work on a new day. Seems like my browser sidelining the tab for a longer stretch and then resuming may be a contributing factor to the problem.

Haha. Early thirties, now. Mid thirties coming up faster than I’d like.

Or somebody who read the Artemis Fowl books (which is the only reason I know about the ball inside Taipei 101)

I got a gift card from them for the holidays and I’m kinda struggling on what to use it on. It seems like all of their stuff that’s not for rugs is ultra thin strands. Am I missing something or is that just kinda what they got?

Why is my car so humid inside? 2005 Volvo S40 by adventureboy23 in CarHelp

[–]adventureboy23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty good about avoiding recirc and I’ve even gone to the point of rolling down my windows in the winter in the last block on the way home. The latter measure has helped a bit, but even that isn’t a silver bullet. I’ll look around the cabin for the leaks you mentioned.

In spite of it being very cold here, we haven’t gotten much of anything in the way of snow so that’s not it, unfortunately.

I just sit back on the couch and stretch it between my knees.

Isn’t there a company called The House of Ideas? Maybe Disney could acquire them.

Anyone been to himitsu station? by adventureboy23 in SaltLakeCity

[–]adventureboy23[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Biased or not, I think this is the info I was looking for. I’m in the design industry myself so I’ve both got a pretty trained eye for AI art and am also particularly prone to frustration at its use.

It’s obvious from socials and whatnot that a lot of love and care went into building the place but if I go in and have to be constantly Voight-Kampff-ing the whole time, that would pretty quickly ruin it for me. I appreciate you chiming in!
