The price of everything is shocking right now. I picked up a stick of 1-1/4" SCH 80 conduit the other day and it was $39. I only bought that size because the 2" which I was going to get was $50. 50 feet of UV romex to go through it was $99.

The tranny didn't make it to the end of Ep1. He was taking too many brain drugs and they were afraid the stress would crack him so he was medically removed. I have a feeling that they knew it all along but they just wanted to put him/her on there anyway so they let him come for 2 days. He...

Woodworking projects as gifts with a deadline triggers me greatly. After the last one I swore I would never do another woodworking project as a gift unless it's at least 6 months away. Box looks nice though. Congratulations on the engagement.

^^ She's making for good TV so far but I bet having that roller coaster of emotions in camp gets old pretty quick. I definitely wouldn't tell her any secrets.

I don't know that much about it, but my understanding is that Kobe beef has to be produced in Japan, where Wagyu is produced in the US from animals that were either imported from Japan or the descendants of them. Some of them may be crossed with American breeds as well. You can be certified...

There's no number of draft picks that is worth giving up a franchise QB for, but if the guy wants out and the relationships are destroyed you might as well get what you can for him. Can't say I'm going to miss seeing him twice a year. I bet Rodger's numbers aren't that far off. $50M/year is...

I think the play was supposed to be almost like a dream or something. Obviously besides the lack of supervision, the sets/actors/dancers/production were about 1000x too good to be in a high school play.

I hope that's not really what teenagers in LA are like. Pretty over the top but it has its moments.

Jesus Christ that Medium article auto-embedded that giant picture and the fucking link doesn't even work. The Social and Ecological Downfall of Lawn Culture Obviously there's varying levels of lawns and areas where they make less impact than others. I'm not going to tell you that your...

It's like a psychosis. It doesn't affect me personally, but it just seems so insane to me and if a neighborhood organization tried to make me do it I would be furious.

Lawn grass is just ridiculous to me. Talk about creating a full time job for yourself. Learn to love a nice brown lawn and save tons of time/water/money. I'm usually done mowing by mid-July and it can't come soon enough. Your kids will get more scrapes and scratches but that's just going...

For a simple time waster game I've been playing "Just Block" lately, formerly called "Woodoku". My favorite thing about it? They let you shut off ads permanently for $3.

Pellet grills are probably the easiest to use of anything you can buy. Traeger is the default. There are more expensive versions (Yoder, Rec Tec) and less expensive (Green Mountain Grills). They're all pretty similar. Mostly the difference is how much steel was used to build them and how...

McDaniel is a weird guy. On the plus side, if the helmet radios go down, the QB can just put him in his pocket and let him call plays from there.

What makes you think you would be the top?

Mike Shanahan was the coach so yeah, he and his son are known for scheming up a great running game, not that having a great running back doesn't make that easier.

I have a couple of grain bins that I never use that each hold roughly 2 semi loads of grain. I have often wondered how much it would cost to fill one with rice and one with dry beans and how long it would last. Between that and 500 cows I feel like I could ride out a pretty serious apocalypse.

And Terrell Davis did have John Elway on his team. Not Elway in his prime, but it's not like he was Rex Grossman.

I've been watching a YouTube channel that someone linked in the woodworking thread where a guy is rebuilding a big wooden sailboat and he has totally paid for the project with revenue from YouTube and Patreon and he has 3 guys working for him full time now. He said that he spends probably 15...

The money hurts, but there's something satisfying about being in charge of big machinery doing big things. I also like buying stuff by the ton or the semi load for the same reason. You're spending money but at least you're getting a lot of something. The things I hate spending money on are...

https://www.androidpolice.com/android-13-dp1-quick-tap-flashlight/ Looking forward to this. Motorola has a way you can shake your phone to turn on the flashlight and my brother uses it all the time and makes me jealous when I want a light and have to go through menus to do it.

Yeah, they're barely the same animal. We used to get unsexed chicks and butcher the roosters but after we raised some broilers I just can't go back to those egg layer roosters so we get sexed laying hens and then buy broilers. The broilers are kind of tricky though. They die at the drop of a...

Totally agree. Once you get past the part where you look stupid wearing them, you have hands-free light that is always pointed exactly where you're looking. I don't know why I don't use mine more.

I don't get the rage over any commentators. I can barely manage to give enough of a shit to form an opinion one way or the other. Can't imagine getting all aggro over it.

I don' Yeah I'm interested. I usually prefer to pay for my entertainment and once Sunday Ticket is available on the net I will probably pay for it but keeping my $150/month DirecTV for another year is a bridge too far for me.

2 tips I wish I had the first time I cooked brisket... 1) Use the crutch 2) Plan on it being ready a good 3 hours before you plan to eat. Maybe 4. Have a cooler ready to put it in straight out of the smoker and put a blanket over it. Don't take it out until you're ready to slice and eat...

Damn I wish this was happening a year earlier. I finally have internet capable of streaming now and being able to watch 49ers games out of season is the only reason I still have DirecTV now. I really want to watch those games but at this point it's going to cost me $1800 to keep DirecTV for...

I didn't realize QT had transitioned to a woman.

That's actually the first things that Neuralink is targeting. Trying to fix that sort of thing.

So for those of you that said you would never do it. What about if you became paralyzed, blind or deaf and the implant could give you those abilities back?

Are you guys trying to say that comic book movies are unrealistic?

I think the fireplace is probably a pretty good guess. I heat my house with a wood stove and I seem to cough more in the winter time. Never really investigated it though.

I wonder what percentage of house guests will notice you spent a week doing that instead of just running a bead of caulk.

Even pine would be fine, especially if you paint or stain it. All our outbuildings are sided with pine. Needs some repairs occasionally. Just not glued together stuff out in the rain, or if you use OSB/plywood then it needs some siding over it. This is what I mean by board and batten...

If he can pay you that much, think how much you would be making doing it for yourself.

Golf is only fun until you try to be good at it. Embrace the suck or be prepared to go broke trying to win. It's a really ingenious way to extract money from people.

I built my welding table like this... Minus the holes cause ain't nobody got time to drill that many holes through half inch steel. It's great because you can stick clamps through the gaps and clamp stuff almost anywhere on the table. I've never seen a woodworking bench like that but it...

That's pretty cool but I think they need to put some kind of siding on it or that osb is going to disintegrate in the weather. If you don't want siding it would be better to use board and batten than OSB or plywood out in the weather.
