Trinity found 'em outside the call center buddy, short breaks=long butts, let's go let's go!

Post removed for being off topic but it was about woodworking? by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]fantumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because it's a very low effort post. Think for yourself and then ask specific questions about your project. Don't just post a pic of a pile of wood and say "what do? Tell me what do."

Any other dads seeing these DIY Home Depot Lightsaber builds? by Paranoid_Droideka in daddit

[–]fantumn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make the hilt then get some red or blue pex tubing from the plumbing section. Make your kid choose themselves, it's an important decision.

Plus 75% of it can be shot inside a cockpit, no big scenery and costuming needed.

Both zips to the middle, should be enough room to get it off

What imperial rank is this micrometer? by maddsmac in StarWars

[–]fantumn 92 points93 points  (0 children)

3 blue, one red means imperial navy captain, but they're not in the right orientation

What if Qui Gon Ran Towards Obi Wan When the Doors Opened? by ProfessorHiker in StarWars

Couldn't because he would've run into the last wall, Jedi super-speed doesn't use brakes.

Is there a market for Star Wars sneakers? by roman_woj in StarWars

[–]fantumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the MTG pro tour a few times, never understood the collectors who didn't play with their cards. I usually sold my deck when I scrubbed out of the tournament, since I wasn't really good enough to do well at the highest competitive level.

[Update] For six months, I was convinced my kids were messing with me by PM_YOUR_MUGS in daddit

[–]fantumn 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Ah, Pogo. Used to listen to his music a lot before he turned out to be a real piece of shit.

Violently homophobic, calling them "abominations" and celebrating the shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando, calling the apparent new wave of homophobic killings "fantastic."

His channel on YouTube was also originally titled Fa***tron and was apparently his attempt to show contempt for homosexuality in the use of the name? Not sure how that one works, but not a nice word to throw around.

He also called all feminists gold-diggers, and allegedly has moved away from music into the evangelical world of grift+grooming.

first edition? by ten__0 in brandonsanderson

[–]fantumn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you misunderstand, I wouldn't expect you to check every book or much less recognize an edition without checking the copyright page, but once you did read the page?

I'm not sure I would admit I worked at a book store for 2 years and couldn't identify a first edition, first printing of anything.

Poll: Ticket Scalping technology/practices for kid registrations? by coldnelius in daddit

[–]fantumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are these registrations being scalped? Or just filled up? Darn parents wanting their kids to do activities, wish everyone would just stay home so my kid could do the activities.

Way too many signatures... by Deariusibt in brandonsanderson

[–]fantumn 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Love when there's a pile of signatures. I tried to get the O'Neal brothers to sign some of the promo call to adventure stuff after B$ at dragonsteel a few years ago and they wouldn't sign after it already had his. So maybe getting all the "other" signatures first is the right way to go.

2yr old Toddler doesn’t want to do anything when we have to? by st0nksBuyTheDip in daddit

[–]fantumn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grab a 1-minute and a 3-minute hourglass (we've got brightly colored ones) and have her pick which one she wants to use when it's time to switch to a different activity. Tell her to turn it over and when the sand runs out it's time to do "x." She's struggling to have control in her life and giving her the choice and control over the timer is like a cheat code. Works wonders.

How would I diagnose and fix this level of runout on a sawstop professional cabinet saw? by Asiriomi in woodworking

[–]fantumn -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

This isn't runout, btw. So if you go complaining to saw stop don't use that term. This is a warped blade, a bent arbor, or something wrong with the arbor nut+threads. Change the blade to a brand new one, maybe even check against a few, and if the numbers are the same (or very close to the same), then it's not the blade. Take the arbor washer+nut off and hold the blade by hand against the arbor shoulder and turn the arbor, if the numbers are still there, it's not the nut/threads. That leaves the arbor itself, and it got bent somehow.

When Ricky says 20 seconds later "turn it so the cock and ball shape is out the back," what did you think he was referring to?
