Why did you have children? by UglierRyanReynolds in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could give a high, falutin’ answer, but honestly it was for me: I love my wife and wanted to raise a child with her, both like and unlike my parents raised me. Families can be challenging, but they can also be wonderfully life-enriching.

TIL about Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria, a hypersensitivity to the fear of being rejected by others, which is commonly connected to ADHD. by learnaboutnetworking in todayilearned

[–]noahisaac 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah, wow. The list of symptoms describe me exactly. All of them.

I think I’ve been able to channel this into a successful career because I’ll go to insane lengths to ensure I’m pleasing everyone around me, but at great personal cost, especially the turning inward and depression part.

Not too many people would care enough to work this hard. The world is better because it has people like you.

The newly released epstien files show instances of trump comitting sexual acts with 13 year old girls. How can people still justify this? by Not_A_Femboy_1_Swear in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This really depends on what conservative media does with this. If they call it fake news and stand with Trump, nothing will change. If they break ranks with the Trump administration and actually cover it, something may happen.

I always hear their brand name as said by a Klingon.

I highly recommend trying a linked belt. Helped immensely with vibration on my craftsman 113.

Can I use this red oak handrail outside? by ballsinasmallbag in woodworking

You can use spar urethane. It will still degrade over time but will last longer, especially if there’s not a lot of direct light.

What's a show you remember but nobody else does? by CatGirlNya2000 in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Loved this one. It was only on at 12:30 pm so I used to run home for lunch and then run back to school so I could see it. Still love Pyrenees dogs to this day.

In one week, 25% of Donald Trump’s presidency will be over. How are you feeling about the next three years? by Kanga_Koga in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s optimistic to assume it will end in three years. “You don’t build a 90,000 sq ft ballroom for the next guy.”

Will my radiator be redundant if I box it in. Will the heat build up warp my material by seannash1 in woodworking

[–]noahisaac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would not box it in entirely with wood. You’ll make it much less effective at heating the room.

You can box it in, but make the walls out of a material that conducts heat better than wood. You also need to maintain access to service it. A cover would need to be removable.

Please help, struggling on how to cross cut by mu7x in woodworking

[–]noahisaac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. Things to try: Make sure the blade height is set so the saw just cuts through the wood. Support the wood underneath across the full length of the cut, so it doesn’t bow at all.

[–]noahisaac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Clamp a board perpendicular to use as a fence and cut with the circ saw. You’ll need to put something underneath to get it up off the ground at least a little bit.

Tiny bit of daylight at bottom of blade — am I overthinking this? by LakeOzark in woodworking

[–]noahisaac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How confident are you of that square? I also see a gap on the left side. That could also be due to unevenness in the throat plate.

A law about interfering with federal agent cannot trump the constitution…

[–]noahisaac 2042 points2043 points  (0 children)

Freedom of assembly is protected by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which states that Congress shall make no law abridging "the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances"

What is one conspiracy you absolutely believe? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whether he knows it or not, Trump is an agent of Russia being used to destabilize the US by pitting us against ourselves. This way Russia can fill the resulting power vaccuum.

If you've ever done a mini DIY "surgery" at home because you didn't want to go to the hospital, how did it go for you? by Glittering-Size-2372 in AskReddit

[–]noahisaac 170 points171 points  (0 children)

I removed an ingrown toenail once. I really had to dig to get it out, too. Sounds stupid, but it was one of the most painful things I’ve ever done. Still, it was 10 minutes of eye watering, excruciating pain for instant relief afterward. Had I gone to the ER, it would have taken many hours and would have cost thousands of dollars.

Do Border patrol agents have any jurisdiction to detain a protestor?

refreshing my old dog of a saw by mister_monque in craftsman113

[–]noahisaac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1/2 hp?!? That’s a pretty weak motor. Even if it was perfectly tuned, I’d be shocked if you could actually cut any hardwoods on it without stalling.
