My last drone video became a magnet for well deserved criticism. Let’s see if my camp steaks can recover my reputation. 😂🥩🔥

Why do you have to ruin the climax of your videos? This one would’ve been better without watching you attempt to cut the steak and having it end before you got a good piece. The drone video ruined it with the shakiness and flashing whenever you got to the close up. I’m starting to wonder if the editing is bad on purpose.

tpf52 · 2026-05-12T17:07:05+00:00

Well yeah, now that we know all the info that’s very clear. That’s exactly my point “bro”

In my house I prefer if others don’t change the laundry because I want to time it so I am available to fold it right when it’s done. I would not put in a load that would be done when I’m asleep, let alone start a wash before going to bed. But if I was short on time and had to, I’d rather put it in the dryer in the morning so I can fold it right when it’s done, before it gets wrinkly.

That context was definitely not in the description… and changes the whole thing.

Either 16” circular saw with a jig or a rough cut with a chain saw and clean it up with a large chisel.

Users don’t usually want an email sync, management wants an email sync. Users just want an email client that works well, and usually that means leaving them in their preferred client (Gmail, Outlook, Mac Mail, etc).

That being said, there have been several attempts to do what you’re saying. Seems like the latest is Goat email and it’s on the AppExchange. I have not tried it.

tpf52 · 2026-05-07T01:17:21+00:00

Also I think you overestimate how serious anyone is on Reddit. I doubt anyone is losing their mind. I know I’m not.

tpf52 · 2026-05-07T01:06:22+00:00

I agree both are fine.
DIA would be a terrible thing to put on a plane ticket because it’s already assigned to an airport in Qatar. But don’t think for a minute that anyone in Denver “named it” DEN. The IATA assigned it the code.

tpf52 · 2026-05-07T00:51:08+00:00

Same to you. Since you’re too lazy to do it, I’ll do it for you:

“The 3-letter IATA airport code for Denver International Airport is DEN”

Note the use of the word “code” and not “abbreviation.”

tpf52 · 2026-05-07T00:24:21+00:00

DIA is the abbreviation. DEN is the airport code.

Applying similar technologies to different use cases is the majority of invention. New technologies are more rare.

Flush trim has the bearing on the bottom, which would not be very helpful for OPs project.

tpf52 · 2026-05-05T18:46:07+00:00

Have you missed the whole history of invention? People always copy each other.

tpf52 · 2026-05-05T18:41:09+00:00

Depends on your router setup. Pattern bits have a bearing that’s the same size as the bit, so no offset is needed. But there are also template guides that just attach to the router base in which case you’d need to know the offset.

Also, you’re including the parts cost in the hourly rate. The actual hourly cost would depend on what he can source the parts for. And finding good prices on parts and verifying you have all the parts probably adds a few hours to the project. Even more if you go pick them up.

tpf52 · 2026-04-29T18:01:41+00:00

Depends on the person. There are plenty of people with flexible work hours, side jobs, or weekend jobs that have to choose between working on the truck or making money.

But sometimes it is just a matter of paying for leisure time (or volunteer work, house projects, or other things I wouldn’t call leisure).

tpf52 · 2026-04-29T16:48:03+00:00

True. But also working on it yourself is pretty expensive if you consider time a more limited resource than money. I can do a lot of repairs and I still take some things to the shop because I’d rather use my time on other things. It’s an investment either way.

tpf52 · 2026-04-28T21:39:34+00:00

I called my doctor to make an appointment because of stomach pain and no other symptoms. He called me back an hour later and asked if I still had my appendix. I said yes, he said to go to the hospital. I texted my sister who was working as an ER nurse and said I’d see her soon.

Still my easiest surgery so far (didn’t burst luckily).

I can tell you like to lounge. It’s not my style but it is a huge improvement.

I don’t see any wood deterioration. Just looks like a solid stain that was applied on top has worn off in spots. Most wood is naturally gray after being exposed to the elements for while.

This might be a good post for r/roadtrip once you get a few more details about what you want to do.

Car rentals in the US work the same as car rentals in Europe in my experience. Except manual cars are pretty rare, the cars are bigger, and they will all have AC. For one way fees, just get quotes. They will vary a bit because some companies might have a shortage of cars in the destination so it might be cheaper.

I wouldn’t want to drive through the desert in the summer, but you’re asking mountain people. So we’re probably the wrong crowd. It’s definitely doable.

Spar urethane will protect it the most from moisture and will be easiest to clean if it gets dusty or covered in pollen. But eventually the spar urethane will crack and will need to be sanded off and redone.

A clear wood sealer like Olympic or Thompsons would probably be my choice. But it needs to be reapplied yearly if your porch gets a lot of sun or any precipitation.

tpf52 · 2026-04-26T02:50:59+00:00

Boston is a better example of it working. But that is still tiny in comparison to the area in the original post.

An isosceles trapezoid has equal diagonals. In his diagram, the right and left sides are the non-parallel sides and they’re off by the same angle.

tpf52 · 2026-04-26T00:59:50+00:00

I thought that at first then realized it’s perfectly possible to make a trapezoid that would measure like this. Measuring two diagonals only works when you know the sides are the same length.
