Having worked in the printing/graphic design industry for 10 years, I had to comment on “That’s about the same quality as cheap printer paper”. Cheap printer paper is typically 20lb text, not 50lb. It’s actually much better, more durable paper than cheap printer paper. It will hold up much better in regards to…

I only ever pressed the button when setting the handbrake if I was doing it on someone else’s car while stopped at a red light. Usually in the middle of the night with no other cars around so he didn’t get rear ended, at least. Yeah, I was an asshole. Probably still am some days.

I swear that’s how the buckle on mine was threaded when I got it (Canon 60D) and this is exactly how I found to be the best way to attach it. Pushing the keeper down against the camera makes it feel more secure as well, since the strap doesn’t want to travel when it’s slack.

That’s what I was going to add! Because damn, those starts/finishes can be scary when the line isn’t big enough for the whole fleet.

That’s true, those people exist, and will continue to exist, but some (and I do stress “some”) can be helped. I’m more curious if she could’ve. Understanding early warning signs from teenagers, and knowing how they are acting at an early age can help prevent things like this from happening again in the future. Writing…

Oh, I’m for sure not speaking to any kind of defense, just trying to work out her thought process, and if that’s it, the fact that she doesn’t morally think it’s wrong, but understands that legally it is, it speaks to something being wrong with her brain. I was more speaking to “She demonstrated knowledge that what…

I think that one issue with this path of reasoning is thinking her knowing she could go to jail and that his parents would hate her is the same as knowing what she did was wrong. I think she truly felt what she was doing was right, in a way, but that she also knew it would make others unhappy and was illegal. She…

My thought process being identical also caused my last car collision. This time it was, technically, my own fault regardless, but while trying to make a left-hand turn on one of the busiest roads in my town during some of the heaviest traffic we get, I saw a car approaching in from the left, with her right turn signal…

Those people will do that regardless of where their phone is, however. The GPS users, on the other hand, are being safer by having easier access to their screen. It’s ultimately a wash on the other idiots.

Very helpful, thank you!

I think I may be exactly that guy ‘cuz I need a belt that’s not a piece of crap, which is hard to find without paying out the nose. If this works well, anyway. Might skip the special buckle.

Something happened once, people commit it to fact. Something DIDN’T happen thousands, millions, billions of times, and we’re all lunatics for trusting the anecdotal evidence of everyone it DIDN’T happen to. In all likelihood, watching it happen before your eyes is due to a minor abrasion in the windshield you didn’t…

This is my thoughts, but more importantly it should be the thoughts of every elected official. Every time I see these games being played, like some kind of fucked up and drawn-out chess session, I get so frustrated with the state of politics in this country. What ever happened to “ask not what your country can do for…

Because some people use their phones for more than texting and looking at cat videos. Like handsfree talking and GPS navigations, both things that a glance at the screen on your dash/windshield is actually safer than taking a hand off the wheel to fumble with it.

I’m sure you’ve saved that person $25 from 6 years ago. Back then, the software worked quite well. Now, most of it can be handled by your OS pretty easily and few of these programs have kept up to date with the changes because of that. I see you’ve posted on a bunch of comments here. Please remember, this is an…

Weirdly, I don’t think the IRS queues returns in the order they’re submitted. I have no idea how they do it, but I see plenty of the “I filed on x, got it on x” that don’t match up with each other. I filed on the 28th and it still hasn’t been approved. It’s possible that depending on just what you’re filing, how…

All of them that I’ve owned since I was in boy scouts, mainly because the corkscrew has always been the one tool that doesn’t get used much (never for its intended purpose). Also because it’s usually the first thing to get caught on other items in your pocket, it’s been the first thing to have its joints losen and…

Not “fascinated”, because it does seem like pretty typical Japanese tech based on things I’ve seen before, but I haven’t seen those specific items before and I’m pretty annoyed we don’t have things like that in the US.

To be fair, my kid cleans up after himself. I’ve worked long and hard on it with him. But even the author of the DIY article references the occasional lost piece found scattered around. There is a reason for this. It’s impossible for a child to keep track of every piece they use and make sure it returns to the storage…

The argument is referring to the fact that they could’ve chosen to raise rates on everyone and grandfathered no one, in which case you’d have been out the money over the past 2 years, money you could in theory be using to pay for the rate hike you’re enduring now. This argument is silly and stupid, however. I…
