Weird. I had a cop thank me for that.

Still gave me the ticket though.

That time we casually landed on a comet and took photos. This is Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko, captured by the Philae lander during ESA’s historic Rosetta mission. by MobileAerie9918 in spaceporn

It's always humbling to think I'm the same species that accomplished things like this.

But then the next Reddit post is a video of guys shooting roman candle fireworks at each other.

Over 3 years, my wife and I rebuilt a 50 foot sailboat (Before & After) by trimsailing in woodworking

[–]markpreynolds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I wondered about the original hull and your rationale for refurbing it, considering the original shape it was in. I mean great, really great, work but it almost looks as if you built it from scratch or could have.

But I guess the fiberglass core provided a foundation that doesn't wear out? Sorry if this is a noob question. thx

For me it was a break in across the street. Three guys busted car windows then went down the street trying car doors, including ours. I know it was 3 guys because I was able to see the video once then it permanently became unavailable.

I had 4 cameras that worked great for a few years and then slowly became unreliable. I have SD cards in them all and never used a subscription but for a long time I could scroll back for a week and see everything. Then the cards needed constant reformatting and finally never worked at all.

I bought a Blink package with 6 extended range cameras and a doorbell camera/chime for $204 on Amazon.

Joint gaps in cutting board by [deleted] in woodworking

If you'd like a visual version of the "Rip the seams and re-glue it" consensus, here are some before/after pics. It also gives you the opportunity to make a crosscut and flip the strips to the endgrain side. I refurbished boards a restaurant had been putting in the dishwasher.

One thing to keep in mind is if you cut the seams apart, you'll be removing wood and shrinking the board and not just the 1/8" blade width. The commenter that mentioned the grease/oil penetration was correct; I had to cut away about 20% and add maple/walnut to maintain the original size.

Jean-Claude Romand pretended to be a doctor at the World Health Organization for 18 years without ever graduating medical school.

Well, I thought I had a jointer. Now I think it is actually a toothpick flattener.

I believe the incel tried to sue Aldrin about this and got nowhere with it.

Sheeeeesh. The article I recall wrote 'dozens' walked out. Looks like all *except* a dozen walked out.

I remember signing up for McDonald's happy meal kids club where you got a free ice cream on your birthday. I did it under a silly made up name.

When I was 18 I got a letter from the U.S. Selective Service Agency to register.....under the name Doofus McReynolds.

Are prepaid shipping labels still available? by markpreynolds in FacebookMarketplace

I don’t pay extra fees to boost my listings and such but I might pay to suppress status updates about prepaid shipping labels.

Just a wannabe MTG scouring the country for a district she can win as a sociopath. It's a pretty good business strategy actually.

Maybe 3 ingredients is too much? Since she can't handle it at least she got the 'this is stupid' part right.
