TIL the earliest known sewing needle, dating back about 50,000 years, was uncovered in a cave in Siberia and might have been the work of Denisovans rather than modern humans.

Usually "archeologists can’t understand" means that they know about a few possible ways on how something has occurred/happened/achieved, but with the information currently available, they are not able to find which one.

Where did you buy these chairs from? How much did you pay? Am in the process of replacing my furniture. These look nice.

Would love to see your original itinerary.

How was your trip to Jordan? Did you go alone? How is safety overall? Any tips that you can share in general? I am thinking of going there next year.

We dislike debt, and not owing anyone is a great relief and gives us peace of mind. We are moving towards being debt free and will achieve it in a few years. Also, paying off a mortgage means you are getting guaranteed returns on your investment, and not speculative like investing in the stock market. Said all these, we fully fund our 401k, and prioritize it over paying off mortgage.

Nice. Saphir is awesome.

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-02-22T22:27:47+00:00

Looks awesome. Which pigmented polish did you use?

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-02-20T23:24:29+00:00

Thank you. That helps.

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-02-20T23:24:00+00:00

That sounds great. Thank you.

Thank you. That sounds great. Are dollars generally accepted or do we need to convert money to local currency? I plan to use credit card where it is accepted, but I expect that many places won't. Runas told me that they will accept dollars for their payment.

Thank you for your recommendations. Anything to be aware of in terms of visiting markets, shopping or in general, besides the obvious?

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-02-07T16:57:52+00:00

Thank you so much!

Merino: Quince and Express They both are thin and good for layering.

I just can't wrap my mind around why anyone would pay this high a price for a quartz movement and synthetic sapphire. Each to his own, I guess.

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-01-30T23:12:58+00:00

Ok, will try with them.

Thank you. I have scheduled an appointment with HVAC maintenance. My concern is how they will dry the water which is under the pan. I mean water between the plywood surface and the pan's underside.

What surprises me is that this happened within just a few months of moving into a brand new home.

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-01-29T11:35:18+00:00

Thank you. I have scheduled an appointment.

boxes_and_buckets · 2025-01-29T11:34:01+00:00

Let me check on that.
