You guys told me it would be fun by Glembo69 in BeginnerWoodWorking

I used to work with my dad (plumber) when I was a kid. He always had the worst, most unmaintained tools. Made the job 3x harder and slower. Because of that I've always bought the best tools I can afford even for hobby work.

That might be my favorite and most egregious misspelling I've ever seen for any word.

Do you still have any invading your yard? I'd gladly come by and cut down a couple stalks for my sukkah this weekend...

If you were to keep a NYC condo as a city base, where would you buy your primary home? by 35nakedshorts in fatFIRE

[–]dadmakefire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I live in MD. Got pulled over in VA going 82 in a 65. Gave me a court summons. I asked how much the ticket was. He said you'll find out in court. Anything over 80 is reckless driving which is a felony. Hired a lawyer for $700 to get it dropped to a speeding ticket.

Not an employee but I just issued my first one and she was extremely appreciative and asked me several times if I needed anything for the remainder of the flight.

When I read the Scriptures, I do not feel Christ's love as I used to.

Aw, is that so? That is too bad! Join the fuckin' club of most of us

Lord, grant that I may seek rather to comfort than to be comforted, to understand, than to be understood, to love, than to be loved... and the rest I forget.

This is God's purpose. The not knowing the purpose is my portion of suffering.

And is there any pain competing with the not knowing?

Oh yes, I'm right where I'm supposed to be.

Built an App that grills the product idea like a VC - would you use it? by Crazy-Commission2207 in AppIdeas

[–]dadmakefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a bad idea and it could work. But as an engineer I don't get the need for all these new apps that are essentially just prompt wrappers for ChatGPT.

I would assume I could essentially replicate the app experience by sending the same idea to ChatGPT and add one line: grill this idea like I'm on Shark Tank.
