    I looked at renting a house for a year closer to 3 or 4 larger metro areas to be closer to the medical facilities. I just couldn't swing it. Maybe in the future things will normalize. With the eviction crap I've heard a number of people are selling rentals now that the housing market is off the...

    Lots of people have asked me to draw up house plans for them just because I draw things on a computer. They get ticked when I tell them that's another skill entirely and there are people that know what they are doing that do that. Wut?

    At least in the market with big swing there's some underlying reason normally as to why. Even if the reason is all bullshit. Crypto who knows.

    Rented a house a few years ago for a few months. It wasn't that large but they had the most square footage in the dumbest of places, well to me at least. The master bathroom by itself was larger than the kitchen. The closet in the master bedroom was larger than the kitchen and dining room...

    Last fall I was closing an account and for a short while I had $2 in that account. Put it into a penny stock for a short time. It made a whopping few pennies then closed the account. Today notice it's gone from $2 to $45 today. Sucks to be me.

    More jobless means bigger push for extended unemployment due to the virus, also more stimulus push only thing I can think other than the numbers really are dreamed out of thin air. Lot of stuff in the economy nowdays seems pretty distant from reality.

    You need a miter saw that doesn't have a detent at 45 and 90 degrees. Friend had one that was micro adjustable. Unlock it and put a square there and then had a thumb screw to get it exactly right. Cut a scrap piece and adjust if needed.

    Yeah their model names I'm trying to wrap my head around. Looking on their site gives details about the models but doesn't say XX model has YY which sets it apart from the other 49 models.

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Needs to be spray foam. When dry that stuff is pretty damn hard. Also would allow for quick facing to make it flat and easy to drill into to run plumbing and electrical through. Print and then anchor it. Or print and move it then anchor it. Also guessing it would be like having a lot of insulation.
