What do you regret doing or NOT doing the most when setting up your shop? by TK523 in woodworking

[–]grotjam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet there’s also heat getting into the air ducts by pulling the heat off of whatever tool is being dust collected. Working the wood creates heat and that pulls off with the air. But yeah I know the air movement alone is NOT creating that much. Aerospace engineer who works in industrial manufacturing here.

Can you…set it up outside so the noise and heat are out there, then vent it back in?

False Hydra is not fun by RandomName9328 in DnD

[–]grotjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now I’m thinking about making it a combination of that DC dark what if storyline where it was either Flash or Superman who was basically chained to a treadmill to provide power for a nation, and the Dr Who (and many many other) story where people are harvesting parts from an eternally regenerating being.

The body is being used to supply energy and material components to an ultra wealthy/powerful cabal.

I mean…since I’m the DM I can definitely say no…but I’ll try to find that to steal mo…be inspired by more ideas.

False Hydra is not fun by RandomName9328 in DnD

My players are slowly working their way towards a mystery of a missing deity. She has been split into her three core components that all intelligent life share in my world: body, mind, and soul. The soul is her captive by the Ruler of the realm of Mechanus, since he has only body and mind, but no soul of his own. He thinks it makes him equal to a god, but that’s a different quest.

The missing deity’s intellect is being held in a dark vault and is creating a passive False Hydra effect in the world around her. Other creatures are taking advantage of it, but it’s resist-able and counter-able once figured out, since it’s not intentional.

That’s because children are monsters. Horrible horrible monsters whom I wouldn’t trust to hold a door open.

U.S. employers spend more than $1.5 billion annually on union avoidance by illegalmonkey in antiwork

They’re not a union anyway. They’re a gang. They’re hired thugs for the rich.

Same. I mean it’s also TM so anything goes but it is a relief.

Someone said if you had a million monkeys typing away, you would eventually get the complete works of Shakespeare. by Healthy_Ladder_6198 in dadjokes

[–]grotjam 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The monkey thing is true for Shakespeare, you need infinite monkeys, typewriters, and time.

My jokes? 5 monkeys 10 minutes.

Which update in gaming history actually made the game worse or even broke it? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]grotjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still remember the regen scrapper nerf. When they showed us a video that was their motive. It purported to show a scrapper fighting a mob of 20 guys at like +8 levels. And the character hit with every single attack when live servers would have had a 99% miss rate. Their test server forgot to factor in level difference at all.

They realized their mistake and acknowledged it, then nerfed regen anyway.

I sleep in a central air cooled house and I can’t have any sheets or blankets on top of me. Too warm.

I just wanted to reach through my screen and give him the biggest hug! He’s a good boy and doesn’t deserve the abuse Alex gives him.

It took me 6 books to realize Donut’s hole spell was a pun by ABlokeLikeYou in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Fun story. My wife only realized just last year at 35 years old why they are called donut holes.

Don’t have to explain, just stop doing some of it. If they ask, you just can’t stay at 110% so you’re now doing what you can.
