It would have been nice to get a list of those 8 states.

I had to deal with this in my living room. It was quite a pain. It took me at least 4 hours total, maybe 6 (hanging out in a 110f attic can make a guy lose track of time). I pulled wire from two existing switches to a junction box, and from the junction box to the fan box, installed a 3rd switch (for the fan), added…
Last year, we installed ceiling fans throughout our house. We got a sweet deal on a couple of awesome ceiling fans (75% off). They were very straightforward installs. The only hard part was pulling out the old box and installing one that was designed for the weight (still haven't fixed a few of the holes in the…
Debt is a bad thing to get into at a young age. Avoid it at all costs.
Last year, I moved into a new house. I'm still trying to get the grass into shape. I've got a very steep hill in the back yard that pretty much goes vertical at the end (Our back neighbor is about 20 feet up from us). The neighbor has a huge two tier retaining wall and that might be the way to go, but the cost of…
I saved money by having a private wedding. Then, we threw a party and invited our friends and family.
Chernobyl could prolly use a good forest fire. There are dead trees and stuff that ARE NOT rotting. They’ve done so much in prevention that when it finally does happen it’ll be an inferno.
As an engineer, I often disagree with salespeople.
Titanium isn’t stronger than steel.
This doesn’t need to be titanium. Making it titanium just makes it more expensive. You could assemble these lil widgets out of stainless steel and call it a day and sell em at a buck and a half.
This article prompted me to make Beignets. I did so with a few simple ingredients. Eggs, Flour, Butter, and Frying Oil. It was very much unlike what I expected. I guess I was expecting something like a doughnut, but what I ended up with was awesome. It took about 10 minutes total to prepare. I looked up the recipe in…
I'm not a huge fan of Ninjas... I don't really think that a food processor is a valid replacement for a blender.

Looks cool, I'll keep an eye on it and hope that it graduates out of early access so I can buy it.
Yes, with sufficient time, effort, addons, workarounds, etc. you can configure Thunderbird to do all the things that Outlook does, and if your time is worthless then it's totally free.
I used to do a bit of kernel hacking with Atheros SOCs and I do not like DD-WRT. DD-WRT used to do some pretty shady business practices, and may still do so. I admit I haven’t stuck my nose into this world in a number of years and lots may have changed.
I just wish that you could tell steam not to broadcast that you're playing certain games... I know there are workarounds, but I just want a toggle that says "Don't tell anyone about this... ever"
It doesn’t sound like an April Fools joke... Sure, it started as one, but then it became not a joke, and if they do it again this year, it won’t be a joke.
It bothers me when strangers add me on LinkedIn. It bothers me more when those strangers are asking for a job. If I don’t know someone, I’m not adding them on LinkedIn. If you don’t know me and you wanna connect, you should prolly find someone I know to introduce us.
"Hand Made" is a bit disingenuous, as there doesn't really look to be any stages in the "making" process that is done by hand, except for the coloring and the rough cutting of the plastic.
This is good advice. I've trained a number of field technicians. Having someone who doesn't understand what you're doing looking over your shoulder when you're cabling an installation, or going through troubleshooting steps really makes you think about every single action you make. It also made me acutely aware of the…
