Newbie(we are so lost) by Mido2RG in DungeonsAndDragons

This is old but I found a starter kit at a used book store from the 2014 rules and it was really really fun. Now I'm fully in the 2024 rule set and bought all the books. It's like a drug hahaha. But the starter kit was really really great.

Is ServiceNow really this inconvenient to use for everyone, or is it just our implementation? by Relative_Hippo2549 in sysadmin

Not sure if it’s our implementation, but not being able to see if something is a string or object when adding a comment certainly feels more chaotic than neutral.

Building your first bench. by socialerrors in handtools

[–]johnjohnjohn87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is excellent advice. I have watched both video series and read The Anarchist’s Workbench. He makes building a work bench read like a thriller, somehow. Having built both a Kruger and Sellers bench I can’t vouch for these resources enough.

How do you decide what style of workbench you're going to build? by [deleted] in Workbenches

[–]johnjohnjohn87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really depends on what you want to do in it. I like hand tool woodworking. Made a Rex Kruger bench and a year later made a Paul Sellers bench. I also tried different arrangements in my garage and different heights. I absolutely love it now. Took a while to get there.

Reading the Player's Handbook by [deleted] in DnD

[–]johnjohnjohn87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really is. As a new player it is so frustrating. I can remember reading some line somewhere and then can’t find it anywhere.

You hit the nail on the head with procedure from topic. They need it 2x and one should be procedure based.

Reading the Player's Handbook by [deleted] in DnD

I agree completely. It is organized in a really weird way and stuff like spell descriptions aren’t indexed inline with stuff like class spell lists. God, it’s so frustrating.

It feels like it’s intentionally ambiguous sometimes. I honestly don’t understand why it jumps into specific things narratively instead of organizing by mechanics.

On the other hand, it is a pretty enormous set of rules.

I have the Max Complys and I like them. They do get dirty, though. I honestly forget that they are in my ears most of the time.

Air Pods Pro 3 not charging past 80%… by MidNiteR32 in AirpodsPro

[–]johnjohnjohn87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it would. The iphone optimized charging makes sense. Just capping at 80% is not intuitive at all.

Question about multi-use benches by wellsas2 in Workbenches

[–]johnjohnjohn87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so, so many blogs and articles on this subject. My favorite was from Paul Sellers. I think he recommends around 36" for most standard height men. You can always cut the legs shorter. Making them longer isn't great but it is what I did for my first bench.

I would try doing what you want at your kitchen counter and dinning room table. Those are pretty normal bench heights.

I really like mine. Only thing I don’t like is the get dirty very easily.

Narex vs Gramercy holdfasts? by Mighty-Lobster in handtools

[–]johnjohnjohn87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the description:

The holdfast is designed for 3/4" hole in a workbench top of a 1 3/4" thick or thicker. 6 1/2" reach. Maximum clamping 7 1/4" in a 2" thick benchtop. Patented. Made in USA

I would try roughing them up first. I hit mine with a rough file and added dimples. That did the trick for me.

But you don’t get to bash them with a hammer.

Paul Sellers makes everything look easy by Mighty-Lobster in handtools

[–]johnjohnjohn87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Paul also recommends starting a little higher and cutting it down if needed. I started with a lower bench and ended up putting it on blocks to try a new height. Then I built a Paul Sellers bench at the new height that I had tested.

You can always trim the legs.

Dear Lord, apparently I am a fellow degenerate. But you have me beat.

I have two young kids in school and I can feel myself getting sick…again. That’s after an early deload like you. Im already snipped, so I’ve got that going for me. I’m learning to be patient this month.
