At minimum the cheap ones have lower QA tolerances on components. Sometimes they straight up swap in shittier components (eg: plastic instead of metal, etc).

Not saying you always need the most expensive option when choosing power tools, but looks same != same.

Should we…like…number them?

Second on the mandolin that was on someone’s list.

Caveat being don’t buy a shitty one or it will have the opposite effect.

Duck urine obvs

Cousin It

Givewell is thorough with their research, and afaik they try hard to stay current on everything.

We should do meet ups in our tent cities! Start a book club!

Seriously tho… Sending good vibes your way, even though I know firsthand that’s a bit condescending and doesn’t really help.

Being poor and feeling sorry for myself

You can fork it

I know nothing about cyanotyping - Does the heat from the lamp help with the printing process, or just the UV light? If the heat is a bug not a feature, there are some LED products that do pretty good UV light emission. You could do a spectral comparison and some tests and see if you could use those instead, since cutting the heat waste would make it smaller and cheaper and help the components last longer.

Also this is really really cool and I want to make one.

I guess I was more curious why people are popping the caps off their beverages while on the toilet.

Nuka Cola goes well with ketchup chips, eh?

Canada too. But there’s a generational divide wherein everyone <50 is assumed to snowboard, and re: skiing everyone assumes the downhill/alpine flavour only.

My family-in-law, all 4 generations, are like 462874th generation American. They use cutlery in their fists like they’re cavemen stabbing at the last mammoth chop.

I definitely do not think chopstick experience is their problem.

How is that a New Canadian thing though? What countries are they from and what fucking intergalactic class missile proof God tier plumbing do they have there? Bottle caps???

I like the idea that riding bulls and rolling joints are Life Skills, as though you need them to function.

What’s your job called? I’m nowhere near your field, and am curious about y’alls org charts.

You can have a bank account, but you wouldn’t be able to do online or mobile banking.

Sms is the only 2fa option (some offer email as well, but last I checked all fall back on sms), and it’s mandatory for online/mobile.

There is literally no bank in my country that doesn’t use sms for 2fa.
