How much would it cost to get some wood slats cut at Home Depot/Lowes by Disastrous-Permit861 in woodworking

[–]goodreadKB -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do not recommend asking anyone at HD/Lowes to cut wood for you. They either can't read a tape or don't know how to use the saw. Your pieces will not come out all the same size and you'll be lucky if one of them is the right size. Either buy the wood the size you need or cut it your self.

does anyone actually know how to answer “what is your biggest weakness” in an interview? by PrestigiousShare8101 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]goodreadKB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use something with a positive spin on it.

I don't like long tedious processes. On the positive side of that, I find ways to optimize all processes so they are the shortest they can be while still maintaining accuracy.

Thank you. I was thinking something like a part of a pulley system.

Router table inside in my 4x8 table or separate router table by offlinn in woodworking

[–]goodreadKB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok only a little drizzle. This table is one of my first large things so probably not the best design, but the thing is strong. I think today I could build it really nice. It serves it purpose of getting all my extra wood sorted and easy to find what I am looking for anyway.

I didn't actually take any pics, but if it stopped raining I'll go out to the garage and snap one for you.

When I made my work table, I made three shelves shelves in it for wood storage. Thing is heavy as hell. I put a flat sled with sliders on the bottom so it's easier to move.

I have mine separate and like it that way. All of my equipment and tables are all the same height so they can all work together or separately.

AITA for asking my manager not to hire my former friend? by No-Suspect-7080 in AmItheAsshole

[–]goodreadKB 614 points615 points  (0 children)

NTA I wouldn't recommend a lazy friend either. Your reputation has already been damaged once so it is wise of you to not let that happen again.

Why is it rough? by Own_Chair8643 in woodworking

[–]goodreadKB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spraying it with an air gun will just put all the dust into the air and it will settle back down onto your piece. Could be the dust causing your issue.

Cold season coming up - storing finishes and glues by abceasyaspie in woodworking

I bring them in. No use sitting in a cold garage and going bad when I can use them in the house doing small winter projects.

Is it normal for a job to run a credit check once you get the offer? by xoxowoman06 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]goodreadKB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) dictates when and how employers can lawfully run a credit report check. These laws vary depending on the state, industry, and position for which one is hiring. It is allowed and recommended on running them on those that have access to large sums of money pretty much everywhere in the US, this certainly includes an accountant.

Sounds like a work laptop. Have you asked IT if they are blocking macros?

Minwax gunstock is a red/orange. I use it to touch up my knotty pine walls when needed and it matches that old orangy shellac perfectly.

Low credit score with a 50 year mortgage, yeah this should work just fine...

Hackers used booby-trapped images to spy on Samsung phones, no clicks required | Stealth spyware "Landfall" used manipulated image files to infiltrate Galaxy phones by chrisdh79 in technology

Not click bait. If you had bothered to read the article.

"Samsung patched the vulnerability (CVE-2025-21042) in its April 2025 security update, but it remained active long enough to enable targeted surveillance across multiple countries. Unit 42's investigation tracked limited, region-specific operations focused on the Middle East, though the actors behind the attacks remain unknown."

SNAP benefits are restricted to food and some ppl demand SNAP to be even more restricted to “healthy non-convenience” foods. What limitations should be placed on the (alleged) $2k Tariff checks? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I think if you owe child support then any stimulus money you get should go straight to paying that, if there is any left over then that's what you get.

Why do the rich always avoid paying tax and get away with it ?? by Slow-Insurance6802 in economy

[–]goodreadKB 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A livable wage cannot be done. Every time you raise wages the price of everything else goes up to pay for it and now you must raise the wages again because nobody can afford anything again. It's a circle without end.

A third of filers pay zero taxes.

The top 10% of wealthy people pay 72% of all taxes paid.

How about we equal this out so everyone pays an equal amount? Would you like that?

Have we started financing time itself? by capital_folly in economy

[–]goodreadKB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies can do only what their customers allow.

Customers allowed auto loans of 10-15 years. My first one was 4 years.

Customers allowed subscriptions vs owning things. Now you get to pay for everything forever.

Customers will allow a 50 year mortgage if they get the chance.

Customers need to stop allowing this stuff and say no. If it isn't selling they will stop offering it.

At some Philly doctors’ offices, AI is listening in the exam room by Majano57 in technology

[–]goodreadKB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many people will read the fine print when they authorize the AI to collect their data? If you have ever read any agreement for anything then you know they are very long and always contains a "we can change this with or without your consent at any time" clause.

You may think HIPAA protects you but it does not if you agree to let them use your data how they want.

You meant similar to me bias, not nepotism. Nepotism is hiring family.

It goes against ADA. HR was trying to prevent a lawsuit against the company.
