I dunno how to highlight stuff but you’re on a roll. Thanks for the nuggets of wisdom. One of my personal favorites:

The purpose of a system is what it does.

A wise man once told me “it’s just as cheap to drive on the top half.” He was a recon airman, so he had first hand experience about fuel use.

Gas may go up, it may go down, but one thing it certainly won’t do is fill your tank by itself. #dca your gas! especially in these uncertain times. Sometimes you’ll pay more, sometimes you’ll pay less, but it’s a commodity and should be treated as such. It never works to catch a falling knife.

*find the chairs first, and then make sure the thigh clearance is good for whoever’s sitting at the table. Sit at various tables with that chair, and figure out where your wrists naturally rest. Make sure knees won’t bump into central supports. Basically just sit in the desired chair, and imagine anything that’s going to annoy 3 hours into a marathon of geekery.

Right. My advice would be to find the chairs you want first… unless you want to build chairs too. 😆

Then, just make the rim or armrest shorter. The concept of our “bowl” table, was we could set up a board game or miniatures and then put a lid on. In practice it made the table kinda uncomfortable.

Ya, the tabletop was basically normal height, but then the extra rim on it made you sit chicken-winged. Sitting on stools was better but made your thighs hit the underneath corner of the table.

And regardless of which surface you choose neoprene/felt, you’ll want a cover for when it’s not in use!!

My friend made a hexagon table for general gaming. The shape was nice. Especially for 3 player games, because you’re always facing equally.

We liked the shape!

We didn’t like the height (too high and the “bowl” of the table was too deep. It wasn’t quite as deep as like a craps table would be but you really felt like you’re reaching down in there.)

I wanted cup holders, but we just used side tables and TV trays which was janky.

He used felt, which wore out quickly. Should have used neoprene.

That scripture is much the same as “Jack of all trades and master of none” and is misused and abused by the very people that the saying criticizes.

You’re trying to decide which pots and pans will bang together the loudest tonight.

I’m logging my car’s yearly mileage and closing my spreadsheets.

We are not the same.

I’m seeing a marketing angle here, and I think it will work for a while before people catch on. Make a client and advertise that we have selectable reactions on a long press. Who’s gunna know.. nobody’s gunna know.

For the first time in my nostr career I thought to hold it down.. I think Damus was my second client right after snort, so 🤷‍♂️

Nevermind. I was born this way.. 😆

Little Damus is all growed up!! Haha I wonder when that started.

If only there was a 👎 on #damus . 😆

A bit different take.. let them. That’s the joy of a feed that I can curate as the viewer. If I don’t want to see it, I don’t have to look at it. #primal and some of the others have gone to an algorithmic feed. There’s only one algorithm for me… which of my real friends posted something most recently.

I was going for “a pleb gets locked up for contempt because a judge doesn’t understand that there’s no delete button to click even if he wanted to comply” but sure.

What happens when a gag order meets an immutable post?

Toy price may be tanking, but that’s just a product of enshitification. A Lego set costs more than ever, there’s $999.99 Lego Death Stars for crying out loud. In 97, the biggest set was Pirate’s Pitfall and it retailed for $54.99! My parents said that set was too expensive, so we got the 19.99 set which was still a pretty cool Lego! This doesn’t even tell the true story, because for every person that buys the Lego Death Star, there’s thousands of people that can only afford silly putty from the $1.25 Tree. Even the dollar store doesn’t have dollar toys anymore, so the cheapest toys are up 25%, it’s just that’s all people can justify purchasing.

Ya bro! Start with zap.cooking on her. I’d love to see some innovative mixology on there!

Would sent more but no peppers and onion…

Done.. now I can’t see this note. More specific instructions required lol
