I can relate. My Oregon neighbor grew four plants for the fun of it. The constant smell of weed in my backyard was annoying. He died and I had a break for a while. But then a motel a block away was converted into a grow. After wonderin

I met Caleb Chung when I was in Boise several years ago. Cool guy. Real low-key. He drove a simple Chevy Express camper van and told me the porta-toilet was a game changer. If I hadn't heard of his Furby background I wouldn't

Not 2022, but in 2021 I switched all of my clothing to synthetic including socks and underwear. This made living in a high humidity area (90+ pretty much every day) soo much more comfortable.

Reddit loves bidets. Has for years. Based on all the glowing comments, I bought one and installed it. Even after some practice and experimentation, I wasn't clean nor felt clean. Plus, the bidet added numerous crannies for urine

There is so so much content out there that I'm content just to watch the little bit that's available via Netflix, Amazon Prime, and YouTube. I don't watch multiple hours per day though.

Man, imagine that. Overnight Louisiana would be become a major tourist destination. Mardi Gras would be off the hook!

I used to do that too. When I started to fret about forgetting any one of my scores of passwords, I switched to a password manager. Now I never worry about losing a password, I use more secure passwords, and I change my passwords more fre

Yes, that's what I meant. I use two PCs and two Android phones and Firefox Sync keeps my passwords across all devices.

Firefox. It's not perfect especially on Android (I have to manually copy the password instead of it auto-filling) but it's good enough.

At least for the libraries I'm a member of, assuming the library even has it, the wait list for nearly all books is weeks or months. And then just hope that when it becomes available, one has the time to read it.

Internally the Kindle Paperwhite still uses MOBI: https://www.theverge.com/2022/5/2/23053408/amazon-epub-kindl... When I tried emailing an epub this way, Amazon messed up the conversion. I've had g

For the average person, it isn't. For the average person with a Kindle, buying a book from Amazon is a very smooth process. My 83 year-old mother does it easily. I pirate e-books and it's kind of a pain in the ass to get the bo

People go to social media sites for engagement. If AI bots provide good interaction, most people will be happy and won't care if they are chatting with a bot. Hell, the best social site would be one in which I could create a couple o

It's easy enough to run an HDMI cable from the laptop to the TV. Over Thanksgiving, I mentioned something about piracy and all of my twenty-something non-computer-literate nieces quickly mentioned their favorite pirate sites. I don

With modern products, it is easy. Check out the ZIP System which glues foam insulation to OSB.

No. Maybe I wasn't clear - I was very careful with my hearing because I already had issues (i.e. tinnitus). I think the reason I lapsed is because I wasn't engaging in loud activities as much as I used to (e.g. shooting) and j

I've had tinnitus for many years. Too much listening to Black Sabbath with headphones maybe? Anyway, it's mild and doesn't disrupt my life. I saw a documentary on tinnitus a bunch of years ago and saw that some people have

Reading this and your earlier comments, it appears you had kids in order to have someone take care of you in your old age?! You seem to have great expectations for your kids. Hopefully they are OK with that.

How do you know what your communication style is and how do you know you're actually making changes to your style? Do you record some of your conversations and study them later? I ask this because, based on empirical evidence have a c

Yes, it's still the case. Look at Boise, Las Vegas, and Denver.

There's a coming supply glut? In the markets I'm familiar with there isn't any significant construction of houses. The few houses I see being built are high end and out of the price range of most people. Quality houses aro

Exactly. I've lived in a rural area for ten years where the nearest hardware or clothing store was an hour away. I get most of my hard goods from Amazon. I can't recall a single issue with the hundreds of products I've ord

I don't pay for ad-free YouTube. Instead I use an ad-blocker and never see ads. If I'm on my phone I use NewPipe, a free YouTube client that doesn't display ads.

I'll be needing a new car in a couple of years; I hope physical buttons are back in style by then.

I bought a Quest 2 last winter, used it a lot for the first two weeks, and then it sat unused for nearly a month. Thanks to Amazon's lengthy return policy during Christmas I got a full refund. Like with 3D in movies, I didn't fi
