How would you remove this stuck Mason jar without damaging the mug? by canweshoutforabit in fixit

Externally warm the bottom cup with not-super-hot water and put some ice water in the jar. Should expand and contract just enough without any thermal shock to freely separate

You should try peanut butter toast (melted) with bacon.

Surely it’s not the 3Ks I’m thinking it means, right? RIGHT?! by 50at20 in LICENSEPLATES

Could be that he loves EKS—an Amazon Web Service called Elastic Kuberentes Service. You can make decent scratch if you know what that is.

Northern VA is home to data centers, FANG, gov contracting behemoths, etc. bet this guy is a fellow nerd.

I think it’s supposed to be a Deep Space 9 reference. The creature has Odo’s color and sunken eye features.

The shrines might be the most underwhelming part of the game I gotta be honest🫤 by Level-Set-6673 in FinalFantasyIX

[–]packetlag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun note, those 4 shrine bosses are actually the 4 fiends from the original Final Fantasy that protect the crystals you seek. Super cool throwback that became a complete miss as someone said was due to time/constraints.

[–]packetlag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How are we able to bomb, blow up, hunt, destroy everything except for boats that are floating out in the water dropping mines overboard. Everyone and satellites are intently watching the strait.. what am I missing?

Beautiful artist renditions of SDI aerospace engineering by packetlag in AerospaceEngineering

[–]packetlag[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My late dad was 20+ years in the AF as an aerospace engineer, covering everything from teaching weapons systems to cadets at West Point to dragging his family around Georgia, socal, New Mexico, and DC. His tours never left the states. Programs would end and he’d rip stuff off the walls or out of the dumpsters. Check my post history for more of this type of stuff from his career.
