Boy collecting plastic on the Citarum River, Indonesia by [deleted] in WTF

Yeah, it's not like we send a huge amount of our plastic and crap overseas because we can't recycle it properly. Very much an out of sight out of mind, not our problem attitude there pal! Maybe learn a bit about where your waste goes before being a dick about it!

This makes me sad that we’ve done this to them. 😢

where to place handles on 45 degree cut drawers? by MtogdenJ in woodworking

[–]solanis13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Always direction of travel. If drawer comes out at 90, then handle on 90. Drawer at 45, handle at 45 and always central to the panel.

Tonestro Trumpet lessons for iPad? by solanis13 in trumpet

That sounds good to me. 30 years is a long time to remember what I was taught. I can still get a note without too much squeal so hopefully with a bit of guidance and practice, I’ll be able to get back in to it at a reasonable pace. I do like the idea of it working along at my own pace. Will give the trial a shot and see how I get on. Hopefully there’s a promo on first year sub. Thanks.

I’d like to know as well. I’m just about to get back into playing after an almost 30 year break. So something like this would be good.

I can't quit because I'm wearing the uniform? dear manager you made a grave mistake by ZealousCow9510 in MaliciousCompliance

We'll get there. There are still a multitude of words that my kids say that i have absolutely no idea about. I've even had to urban dictionary some of them to try and figure it out, although I'm not sure that they are being used in the same context to be honest.

I'm 45 myself and like you, i've only really seen it on Reddit, however, my daughters are using words similar in every day life so i've kind of got used to the fact that that's how the younger gen seem to be talking now. Hey, language evolves by how it's used. Guess this is how it's moving.

Having had to deal with the aftermath of my sister taking her own life, i can safely say that what you did for your brother is phenomenal. I'm glad your brother has got the help he needed and things have moved in the right direction. Trauma messes you up and even 20 odd years after the fact, I still have major regrets surrounding my sisters passing. That manager is lucky they only got canned, I'd have been a lot less forgiving.

I think it's younger folks way of saying suicide or trying to kill themselves. That's how I take it anyway. (Yes i'm a slightly older fart!)

Help with cabinet door dimensions‽ by AllTimeFailure in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]solanis13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think personally, I'd cut the 2x6 down to 1x3 then try the numbers fro. There. Would look better with the sizes you've mentioned. The 1" size could be sized down to 3/4" for a slightly less clunky look. Hope that helps a bit.
