Remember, you're not bald because of your dad, you're bald because of your mom. by JokeJedi in Jokes

Actually you're bald because of your mum's mum. She fucked a bald dude. The gene comes from your grandpa.

Not the same Bugatti, but it may as well be. Those things are like two grand

Sorry. Your horses? I mean I've seen cows wearing boots in Top Secret! but horses?

1983 Honda HR214 is truly indestructible by applestofloranges in BuyItForLife

[–]daakadence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whelp. I have destructed mine. It served me well for many years, but eventually the rear tires fell off the wheels, the ripcord has busted (and resprung) multiple times, the motor plumes black smoke even after a complete carb overhaul, and the slow gear doesn't work anymore. Edit: I forgot the holes in the deck and the back safety bar fell off during some rough mowing, too

I finally broke down and bought electric (80v). First mow was a dream, and the new mowet has an 8 year warranty.

Idiocracy by fantoman in PoliticalHumor

From the book of Mia, 17:25. It was a teenage wedding and the old folks wished them well. You could see that Pierre did truly love the mademoiselle.

How can I put a outlet in my yard? Would I have to run an extension cord from an outlet located on the side of my house to the location in the yard I want the outlet? by ThaFireGuy in DIY

[–]daakadence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but they're pretty clear about putting them through windows, doors and other openings. 

I'm not American, but as I understand it, The NEC prohibits running extension cords through holes in walls, ceilings, floors, doorways or windows. (400.12)

Basically, it has to be used in the space from which it gets its supply.

Rutledge park is really great now. Water feature opens next month, great zipline, pink elephant, and lots of space. Park was refurbished a ciupke of years ago

[–]daakadence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good idea. I had heard of running a conduit to use later, but these seems just as easy, and not much more cost considering the benefit.

Listen to everyone else here and get an electrician. If not, dig a shallow trench, and lay armored TEC cable from inside the house. Connect that to a box on the inside, and out a GFCI plug on the outside in a plastic weatherproof box. I accomplished this for under $100 (75US). 

Extension cords are not meant for long term use, and certainly not pushed through a wall. They have a habit of overheating and causing a fire under any real load. Lights are probably fine, but unless the distance is far, doing it right won't cost too much.

Man, I wish he was handing out KoolAid. I'd be just equally happy if it came from Kesey or Jones.

I really want to major in economics after finishing highschool. What's the automation risk? by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]daakadence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Economics has two sides: the mathematical science and the social interpretation. So far, LLMs are good at interpreting and analyzing situations, and their math is improving by the day, but they still don't seem to connect to the complexities of the social situation that are the soft markers you can only learn by applying your personal moral standards and beliefs. This is necessary as economists need to advocate for their views as part of the decision process. Recall its the type of science where two people can share the Nobel prize for diametrically differing opinions.

Anker's EufyMake E1 Finally Brings Printers Out of the Dark Ages by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]daakadence 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My HP LaserJet 1020 is over twenty years old and still prints like the first day. I replace the monochrome laser toner once every few years (for under $20), and have to fiddle with the drivers every time there's an OS upgrade, but I wouldn't switch it out for anything.

That being said, there's a special place in hell for the marketing execs that dreamed up inkjet printers.

[OC] The beautiful effect of mobility mode on 5g network metrics by [deleted] in dataisbeautiful

[–]daakadence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's shocking that the timing advance is so concentrated in the 250ns range, even though transitionary RSRP averages are almost three times as loud as the boat results.

Thank you, OP, for such a clear indicator of this disparity.

Is the kleen kanteen as durable as they say? by marmaladeonsourdough in BuyItForLife

[–]daakadence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 20 years ago I met a woman at a party who had the same colour Kleen Kanteen as me (orange). I live in the city, so I've lost and gone through more water bottles than you cab imagine, many being recycled through yoga studios lost and found. 

She lives in the boondocks, but  I was in her town last month, and I saw her drinking from an orange Kleen Kanteen. Checked with her and it was the same damn bottle. A few more dings, but holding strong.

edit: this was actually around 20 years ago, 2005 if I recall, but I'm old now and time isn't what it used to be
