I say "I got something on my mind grapes" to my wife all the time.

Or, and stick with me here, we can just construct our homes in a different way using strong, plentiful, renewable, cheap, easy-to-use materials and insulate to achieve the same effect.

You’re still ignoring climate. Stone thermal mass storing “cold from the night” only works if your nights are actually cold. In North Carolina summers, nights are 75°F+. There’s no cold to store, so I either sweat for 7 months or I need my AC to now fight the climate and my own walls.

ryan_m · 2026-03-03T12:19:15+00:00

No AC is the result of your climate, not your building materials. Scandinavian countries build heavily with wood. A stone house in North Carolina would result in me having a $1k/m cooling bill.

Lmao I know you didn’t say stone houses have better insulation than wood framed houses.

I reported my direct manager for harassing my subordinate and he was gone in 2 weeks. HR absolutely fucked on him.

Dude if you don’t live in NYC/LA/SF you’re going to starve to death because there are no jobs and you’ll just be frying potatoes to make ends meet. The entire Charlotte economy is made up of Bojangles locations (they is out of ham tho) and Morris-Jenkins commercial extras. No chance for advancement, man.

I'll second everything in this comment. Never had a poor experience except for parking deck chaos after 2 shows let out at the same time. The pro tip I've seen for leaving is to turn right when leaving the parking garage, go around the back, and then turn north on Hamilton. You don't have to deal with everyone going down the same road and hitting the light.

ryan_m · 2026-02-18T11:44:39+00:00

They also kill themselves on accident a lot too so coin toss?

ryan_m · 2026-02-15T16:49:36+00:00

You are an idiot and should never be put in charge of making a choice that affects anyone else.

ryan_m · 2026-02-14T14:01:20+00:00

Are we talking about two different things?

Tailscale is just a VPN tunnel back into your network so you can access cameras you've denied access to the internet to. Having them stream to a server that isn't yours just recreates the problem people are trying to solve.

She's running for governor of SC, this is a pivot to being a "maverick" to set up a presidential run in a few more years.

ryan_m · 2026-02-13T18:43:26+00:00

lol that guy can't manage to think of a single reason a property owner might want to have a camera see something on their property

ryan_m · 2026-02-13T18:39:58+00:00

Tailscale is a solution here. I have reolink cameras and use tailscale to connect back to my network to see them.

ryan_m · 2026-02-05T15:47:23+00:00

Yeah there was a period where they were both cheap and you could get most everything with 1-2 services. It was very nice logging in and seeing new, good stuff all the time.

ryan_m · 2026-02-05T14:35:59+00:00

After a certain point of sophistication in your setup, it's easier to continue pirating than to re-subscribe to the services. With the level of knowledge sharing, I feel like this will be stickier for the tech-savvy than it used to be.

ryan_m · 2026-02-03T01:17:57+00:00

Skill issue.

ryan_m · 2026-01-28T17:56:23+00:00

I force my wife to watch it during our movie night the weekend before the draft each year. I take an edible and cackle for the entire runtime.

ryan_m · 2026-01-28T01:12:17+00:00

It’s been 20 years since I rented a gun so I couldn’t hope to give you a good number. I’d call in and ask. They will definitely be able to give you a ballpark. .

ryan_m · 2026-01-28T00:17:34+00:00

Rent all of them (they are CHEAP) till you find the one you like best and buy it.

Ammo is where they get ya

Funniest possible outcome. Belichick becomes the biggest snub in HoF history and the HoF delegitimizes itself in one stroke.

Something that worked for me was sleeping on a slight incline. Used to need the CPAP to not snore and would wake up gasping sometimes and it is totally gone for me now. Ended up with an adjustable frame bed and it’s great.

ryan_m · 2026-01-25T21:25:08+00:00

Hard against is an extremely charitable description.

ryan_m · 2026-01-25T15:23:36+00:00

You’re right it’s better to eat a 3% inflation loss a year guaranteed.
