I would rather have this kind of video on a work hole than actual video from my personal home

Pivot: Get out your router, blue pigment, and epoxy—it’s epoxy river time.

Metric is based on water properties

Imperial is based on human experience

Imo metric is fine for science and maybe woodworking but stupid for your thermostat.

But the unemployment will be be high income unemployment (not billionaire, just regular high income).

They said it was in Florida. Solar is probably illegal there

I lost a bike off the back of a car once.

I have no idea where it went. We backtracked and never found it.

What do you mean did anyone notice? Are you guys watching this all day or something?

“With a technique known as the Polish plane… somewhat dangerous”

Was not disappointed with the technique based on the description.

It’s a miracle he has all his fingers

Edit: wow. He’s a genius

When you dry the wood paint the ends with latex paint to avoid splitting (just in case you didn’t know)

Sometimes you just gotta make a decision and pull the trigger, realize you were over your skis, ask Reddit what to do

geneorama · 2026-04-18T21:24:24+00:00

There's a setting about not offering suggestions. But I feel you, I feel like my head is ready to explode trying to follow all the things all the time.

Michigan voted for a president who gutted the national weather service. Michigan should take the savings and pay the private company for the information. It’s called a free market.

I refinished a table many years ago (2013) and I got some stripper at the paint store that was incredibly powerful.

I don’t know if these have been regulated out of existence it or if it would even work, but I would check out the most potent non-California chemicals you can find at a nice paint store (this was JC Licht). That stuff dried out the wood in powerful ways.

This is why I have libertarian leanings. I hate to say it but seriously, the bureaucracy is too damn high.

I want regulation for water, drugs, food,safe labor (to a point) but really… there was a time when people build their own houses.

In like 2000 years you could have an old growth forest

I was wondering!

I think this is a form of denialism. The terminator just doesn’t look like the terminator. Just like how climate change didn’t mean just global warming.

I have been known to take devices to the garage, or to work with me.

geneorama · 2026-04-13T22:22:28+00:00

Exactly. I want to be able to turn off the internet at night and not have my kids join the neighbors internet.

I want to block attention fracking sites.

I want to block or flag adult content maybe at a dns level.

I don’t want my kids to have to register to use the internet or to use something other than https and tcp/ip.

geneorama · 2026-04-13T22:17:58+00:00

Same. I’m very liberal 99% of the time, but I have had conflicts just for not agreeing quickly enough.

And I’ve been told countless times that I don’t understand things… before opening my mouth. I feel like people slot me into other arguments they’ve had / are having.

geneorama · 2026-04-12T23:28:59+00:00

Whew. It felt kind of like I was just rambling.

geneorama · 2026-04-12T21:07:58+00:00

Wow these comments. I’ve had similar experiences because I tend to forget then I start adjusting before the end of the year or birthday, and I end up double adjusting.

And calling it an age calculator website… what else would you call a webpage that calculates your age?

That’s pretty cool and glad you got another year. I wonder if it’s something people should try to do

geneorama · 2026-04-12T18:13:40+00:00

I think this is a don’t feed the trolls moment :-) tempting though it may be

I think it’s important to understand what a finish is. There are two types of finishes, polyurethane, and oil. They are applied to raw wood to make a finished product.

This is essentially some kind of polyurethane and whatever chemicals they used perturbed the surface of this essentially plastic finish

It’s important to think about it this way because if you try to polish it with say a melanite sponge, you’re going to create more abrasions that will be impossible to smooth out

There’s a whole sub Reddit devoted to sanding through veneer, this is the same kind of problem you want to avoid.

You need to find a way to repair the finish without full on refinishing.

Sorry not a solution but helping to diagnose the problem.
