Forget duck tape, gaff tape is a mans best friend.

Ad?

Bravo!

Agreed, 100%. Lytro is the best innovation since digital photography, but $500 for a camera with a mostly useless form factor doesn't appeal to me. Give me a lens I can use on my existing bodies and show me where the line starts to buy the things.

Wow that's pricey for a gimmicky light.

They are marketed mostly towards the outdoor types. I carry one as a backup when I'm in the mountains, Giardia sucks! It's worth every penny.

Check out Titus Canyon road in Death Valley. The approach isn't that high but it's just as cliff-like.

If someone offered him $50k he'd probably stop squatting.

The author is just making sure someone is paying attention. You win half an internet.

Dolores and 15th? Must be nice. I had to give up my apartment downtown, I'm stuck way the hell out in Ocean Beach because I didn't want to spend $3000+ to live downtown.

The most I've done is a 48 hour shift, 12 hour nap then another 48 hour shift. I was working for a global bank at the time and we had a catastrophic system failure. It sucks, but that's how it goes sometimes. It's fine if that happens a couple times over the course of a career, but my current boss has some ridiculous…

Need anybody for IT? The CTO of the accountant/tax firm I work for wants us at our desk 12 hours in the off season, 16+ during tax season.

I'm in IT for tax. You're not kidding about those 6 months. It's hell for everybody involved.

I live in SF now, it's a great place to be young if you (read: mom and dad) can afford it.

Rule #34 applies.

Pirates are fine as long as they stick to handing out coupons for Long John Silvers

that makes my brain hurt.

Maybe I misunderstood "no way in hell that's not painless." That reads as it should be painful?

a 50cal between the eyes would be completely painless. The buildup would suck, but they probably wouldn't even hear the bang.

My experience shipping things for work has always been if it absolutely has to get there in one piece, overnight it. If it's got time to sit on a trailer it's going to get used as a seat.
