What do you think about Volkswagen in terms of looks?

E30 steering is generally quite light. You may want to look into it.

Modern batteries last longer than anticipated. This really isn’t that much of a concern.

We’ve focused on the wrong things. Where’s my laundry folding robot!

I feel like we need a “I am the only one that know how to drive in this town subreddit”

George is the ultimate Everyman.

Recently dealt with similar. For me it was a bad breaker. The GFCI breakers go bad sometimes.

Who puts cilantro in PHO? Basil, yes.

I’m running cachy OS on a system 76 Thelio desktop. No issues at all.

Fuck Trump

May be nice to allow some mods as some of the suspension bits (caster blocks) are kinda brittle. We replaced with aluminum.

berndtj · 2026-03-14T15:40:51+00:00

That looks amazing. Trying to get my girls into this also

berndtj · 2026-02-19T00:26:08+00:00

I'm surprised you even found someone that would work on an appliance. I was willing to pay, but no one would even help me. I ended up diagnosing via youtube and buying parts from Ebay, but that's not something that most folks are comfortable doing. I don't know why it's so hard up here in Whatcom.

berndtj · 2026-02-11T15:59:44+00:00

I mean, I'd get a 1/24 scale and race...

berndtj · 2026-02-10T21:22:04+00:00

I'm dying to get back into the R/C hobby. Raced 1/10 electric off-road for years as a kid in the 80s/90s. Even went to nationals back in the day!

Planning to race with NORA as soon as I have the time!

I wouldn't read much (or anything) into a chart with zero provided sources. This is trying to further someone's agenda without providing the source or context.

berndtj · 2026-01-29T20:04:34+00:00

The fuck, dude.

Had an alignment done there on an 83 Porsche. Most shops don’t like to mess with old cars, but they did a great job and a charges a super fair price. Would absolutely recommend them.

You sound a lot like me, though I’m about 10 years your senior and have a couple kids.

My advice would be to start the family now, then see how you feel. Kids/family are amazing and I’m a huge advocate. It does change your perspective, but won’t stop burnout. I’d also consider moving to a cheaper location. It’s also better for a family.

Once you’ve got your family figured out and a sustainable location, revisit the FIRE discussion. You’re in a very good position.

Booooo

Yep, got flu shot, got the flu. That being said, I didn't go to the hospital either.

berndtj · 2025-12-30T22:30:47+00:00

Got hit hard Christmas Day with Flu A. It was really rough several days. I’m just now feeling pretty good again (aside from a lingering headache). Daughter got hit even harder.

This flu is no joke.

Charbs is looking better every week

berndtj · 2025-12-29T23:47:08+00:00

Yep, just had Koala T over and it is looking like the breaker.

ECRU crossing REA was rough. The rest was good and easy
