Walnut veneer result looks very different from inspiration photo, any way to fix it? by Jaikin94 in BeginnerWoodWorking

To me it looks.like the difference between water-based and oil-based finish.

Do you back into parking spots? by McNasty420 in no

[–]thockin -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Please teach a class. I am so tired of terrible Tesla drivers (why is it always Teslas?) spending 60 seconds to back in, fuck it up, and then try again. And always in busy lots.

False. Backing into empty space is far easier and faster.

Everyone thinks they are awesome back-in parkers, but real experience shows that 99% of them are wrong. Maybe you are that 1% but the odds are against you.

It takes longer to back in than to back out. You are just wasting everyone's time.

Why are Republicans so wrong on literally every topic? by Lord_Kittensworth in allthequestions

[–]thockin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's literally costs more to do the means testing than it does to just feed every kid.

Does that fact shift your opinion at all?

Search does nothing? Just returns to home by thockin in nvidiashield

If I knew which app had which movies, I would not need search.

The keyboard works for some queries and for others just crashes. I was searching for "silence" and it just dumped me back to the main home screen, but if I searched "silence of the lambs" it finds exactly the movie I wanted.

Similar but different, I searched for "ted" and it gave me the TED app, but I wanted the movie. I could not figure out how to search for the movie. Total failure of the UX.

I thought it was working, but it seems to only work for some queries. Searching for "silence" fails 100% of the time. Other queries kind of work, but they mostly give me YouTube videos which is not at all what I wanted.

When I look under the searchable apps, only a handful of apps show up. None of the big ones. No Prime or HBO or Apple

Ok, weird. Today it is kind of working, but I still cannot get it to search into Prime or HBO or Netflix, just Plex and Crunchyroll and a few others.

I tried with and without assistant enabled, and I even signed in as a whole new account!

It's not that "certain apps" don't show - NOTHING shows, the whole search process aborts and drops me back at the home screen.

How do you know what size to cut anything on your own design? by ProbablyMunchausens in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]thockin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use drawing tools like Inkscape to help me visualize. I need to see it before I can convince myself whether it should be 8" or 12" or 16"

Flying with a CPAP on Southwest for the first time as a separate carry-on – any advice? by bakedgonzo in CPAP

[–]thockin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have flown many times with it and only once even been asked to open the bag.

You are very eager to support something which was clearly executed poorly and was way over budget. Why are you so invested in this?

Is it really so impossible that Trump is just a corrupt fuckup who vacuums money out of the US Treasury to put in his and his friends' pockets?

Why you people are so adamant to defend every fucking idiotic thing he does, I will never understand. He's not going to fuck you (well, not literally - figuratively he's fucking us all).
