Classic. Dropped on head as a baby. Small fracture behind my ear. Fucked up my balance for a while, apparently moving just a little bit would cause me to get dizzy and puke. No permanent issues, but I blame it for my inability to ride a unicycle.

It’s in a better place now. Actually, it’s in the same place, but with a big hole in it!

I’m a fan of a nested zone approach. City center, no cars, pedestrians, bikes and busses only.

A few blocks away, compact cars only.

A few more blocks from that, all cars, no trucks or SUVs

A few more from that, All cars trucks and SUVs allowed, no trailers.

Absolutely outer edge, drive whatever you want.

They ought to increase it by 2 years every time. That way people have to get clean. Also, we ( US citizens) should take control of all tobacco companies, and wind them down, putting all profits and assets towards addiction recovery services, and cancer treatments.

They’ve been making billions off of slowly killing people for the last 100+ years, they don’t need one more fucking day.

For-profit insurance too.

Leveraged buyout, cutting yourself a huge check, folding the company and walking away.

You can shim a surprising number of them with a cut up soda can. If you’ve got the time, lockpicks are pretty easy to buy and a novice can pick most locks in less than an hour with a “raking” technique.

If you can’t defeat the lock, attack the mount. A lot of doors/drawers/cabinets use thin punched steel, or mild steel for the hasp/lock point. You can get through those in a few minutes with files, saws, pliers, etc.

Yes to the case, no to the screen protector (depending on your phone model).

Most phones have some version of gorilla glass or ultra scratch resistance glass. If you’ve got this, you probably don’t need a screen protector. Your screen is probably harder than any screen protector you can buy, and that protector will scratch, and now you need to replace the screen protector to get rid of the scatch, over and over again until you just live with a scratched up protector, and a perfectly good screen underneath.

While we’re at it… unless you are doing some extreme sports, I recommend a cheap, lightweight case with some key features.

Corner protection: Your phone corners are where it will break when you drop it. Get a case that completely encloses the edges of the corners, and provides good protection there.

Raised bezel: You don’t need to go overboard here, but make sure that your case edges extend past your screen. If you lay your phone screen down on a table, no part of the screen should contact the table.

I used to get OtterBox and ultra duty cases, but lately, I just get a cheap plastic case with a rubber/soft plastic edge for corner protection. No screen protector, and my phone looks brand new. Just avoid getting sand in the same pocket as your phone, or putting two phones in the same pocket.

If your’re at the point where you need a static IP, then 25mb down is probably not going to cut it for you anyway.

Easier method, tilt your head towards the clogged side, and then pull down gently on your earlobe. This will let an air bubble past the water, and it all drains out almost instantly. No weird hokey-pokey dance required.

Cinnamon works wonders against ants. Just put a little down where they are coming in. They won’t walk on it, and it messes up their ability to follow pheromone trails.

If you absolutely want to kill them for some reason, the liquid borax baits seem to work the best in my area. Just make sure they cannot be reached by pets or small children.

I wouldn’t say “no person” but the F150 should not be the most sold vehicle for the last 10 years straight.

We need to shame Pavement Princesses and Suburban Assault Vehicles out of market dominance.

Switched to OP after LG dropped out. I’m basically pro “anything but apple and Samsung” but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by my Pro 9. Hands down the best phone I’ve ever used. My only real complaint is that after 3 years, the battery doesn’t make it all day every day, but its easy enough to carry a battery bank, or just pop it on the charger for 10 minutes and get 40% of the battery back.

Honestly, just have both. I’ve got physical buttons for basic controls (think volume, power, seek, skip…etc) and touchscreen capabilities for maps, connecting phone, managing car settings. Also, my car has a physical pointer stick that you can use to move the selection around on the screen, so you can even interact with soft buttons using a physical interface.

I’m sorry for your loss.

Measuring tape is a good idea, might add it to my work kit. Good loadout.

I do phone in the front left, keys, wallet and knife in the front right. I stopped keeping wallet in the back because it’s bad for your hip, and harder to access and protect.

Weekend: phone, keys, wallet, occasionally a knife.

Workday (IT): Laptop, Kindle Scribe, iFixIt kit, Leatherman surge, mobile battery bank with wireless charging, wireless earbuds, Cable card, 4x 16GB USB drives, 25ft Ethernet cable, various video adapters, headlamp, phone, keys, wallet, knife.
