    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    I think someone beat you to that one. https://www.minilonghorn.com/ Maybe not as miniature as people would like, but they'll probably get there. Miniature Zebu are more miniature, but probably doesn't speak to the heart of Texans with spare land and cash quite as much.

    Well thanks for brightening the thread with this irrelevant nonsense and seasoning it with nerd rage.

    So you think the IRS is going to come for me because I'm joking about how my ranch isn't very profitable on the internet? Don't you have something more important to worry about?

    Homesteading and Hobby Farm/Ranch

    We are trying to make money, but realistically, if the goal was maximizing income we wouldn't be doing it. I could make more money by just selling the land and investing the money in index funds. I could probably lease it out for $100K+ a year and then go work as an engineer for another $100K...

    It didn't seem off to me. The guy lives with his mom, solved one case that was actually solved by a dead PI, and Mare had to tell him to draw. Nothing about him really said the dude should be a steely eyed killer. Odds are it was the first time he'd ever drawn while on duty let alone under...

    Not really more work, but they take longer to get to butcher size. I've been told about 14 months of age is when they can be slaughtered.

    Bumping this thread because even though I'm not a hobby farmer, we're trying something new that is starting out as a hobby and I hope might turn into a business down the line. We just got our hands on 3 Mangalitsa pigs. If you haven't heard of them, they are referred to as "the kobe beef of...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    90% of baseball is 1 pitcher vs. 1 batter at a time. Much less complex game. Football also has more injuries. Injury can throw a wrench into any sport, but there's just more of them in football.

    It would be ridiculously hilarious if the Ingenuity drone just flew over and dropped a bomb on China's rover and then NASA was like "No, Ingenuity was nowhere near there at the time, it must have been some other drone".

    I think PFF is about 75% just people jacking off with math. I listen to a podcast with a guy who works there and sometimes they talk like they can calculate what everyone's success is going to be but that's just not how real life works. It kind of works in simpler games like baseball but in a...

    The other thing about the "nice" places is they are all getting really crowded. If you can learn to appreciate sagebrush you can have a lot more land for a lot less money and have some actual solitude, not just the type where only 50 cars a day go by your driveway. @Blazin there is a...

    Smart move. Living in the mountains is overrated. It's like living close to the beach. Both are nice places to visit but most people don't actually spend enough time doing either to justify the hundreds or thousands of dollars per month it costs to be in those areas rather than just living...

    This is true. Wherever you find weeds, there's a reason they are there and it's not because you haven't sprayed enough 2, 4-D on the spot.

    Estate tax doesn't kick in until $11.7 Million right now. It is likely to get lower with the democrats in power and also they are talking about getting rid of the stepped up basis so anyone whose parents are planning to leave them a piece of land or real estate you might think about getting...

    Oh yeah I forgot about the sanding part. I used mine to sand down a window frame just a couple of weeks ago. Very handy for getting into the nooks and crannies.

    It's definitely not something you can't get by without but it's nice because it can saw straight into a flat surface and you can cut pretty precisely in some pretty awkward places. I bought mine to scrape linoleum glue off my subfloor. If you put a scraper blade in it it's pretty effective for...

    Probably a dumb idea. It wound up selling for over $1200 too so I wouldn't have paid that regardless. I would love to get my hands on an old ironworker but I can't really justify the cost.

    Caught up last night. I'm enjoying it so far. It is a bit depressing. Kind of weird to see Kate Winslet as an almost white trash American since she has that posh British accent in real life. Sort of like watching The Wire and then seeing an interview with Idris Elba.

    The Joe Rogan Experience (JRE)

    I guess we're going to find out if Joe is cancelable. There's no doubt that the thought police are coming for him. I would really like to give him some truth serum and ask if he's glad he went to Spotify.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I think Armstead is good, but not a transcendent talent. If they had traded him instead and resigned Buckner I think he would have had a better year than Armstead, but his production would have dropped a lot from 2019 too. The only one on the team that might be transcendent is Bosa but it's...

    He wasn't in between Nick Bosa and DeForest Buckner anymore. It's not the same doing it with a rookie and a couple of guys you've never heard of.

    Yeah, the niners aren't that different on paper from the superbowl team. Replacing Buckner with Kinlaw is a downgrade so far but hopefully he will continue to develop. Replacing Emmanual Sanders with Brandon Aiyuk is an upgrade. Beyond that the major pieces are similar and if either Jimmy or...

    This is probably a stupid question, but this shear is selling in a local auction. Assuming this could be picked up cheap, I have some use for it as a shear, but I've always wanted a punch press. Would it be feasible to modify this thing so it could be used for punching? Preferably so you...

    Yeah, we should lobby the FDA to remove those warning labels on cookie dough. If you're going to die from some raw eggs and flour then we're probably better off without you passing on your DNA.

    Lynch himself said that they took the shot at Rodgers. He said something along the lines of "If you think the league MVP might be available of course you make a call. It was obvious right away that he wasn't available."
