   Nice. I did a lenticular thing too. A couple years ago. A 4x6 inch 6 frame art thing. The printer was in Los Angeles and shortly thereafter he stopped doing business. Funny how hard it is to find a printer of such.

   A fence on a ridge. High tensile wire, pickets and some other fancy stuff. All hills and transitions. 1 pedestrian gate and 1 wideish chainlink gate. Wood posts and tposts. Box braces and such.

   There's a gym, with showers. A cafeteria of course. Locker for my stuff. I think that's all covered. Is there a laundromat?

   What's the life partner test like? Do I have to wait till you die to collect? What if the partner dies before you do, do I return the check?

    School, homework, part-time job, college, study, full-time job... it never ends. For many of us, covid is the first taste of freedom we ever got. It was eye-opening and delivered some serious perspective. This "not working" could

    Modern work is weird. All your energy goes into it. But at the end of the day there's no satisfaction. Just emptiness and exhaustion. So you invest your remaining time in entertainments, drugs and shopping. Frantically groping for a sc

    Doctors need the best tools. But their software is insane. Doctors have a stressful job. But my friend the ER surgeon works 24 hour shifts. Sleep is the best healer. But it's impossible to sleep in the hospital. There's a terrible

    That's an interesting idea. Stress is a drug in this way. Affecting our emotions and how we see and think.

    99% of our movies involve "the good guy" beating down "the bad guy". It's some kind of deep-rooted psychological thing. Permanent pubescent power fantasies. Is it a plague of bad taste? A conspiracy to make everybod

    Why does everything need to be secure now? I can understand shopping. And reporters of hot news. But why everything? Why does my http site, which has nothing important on it at all, get flagged by chrome as "insecure"? This strike

    I have several friends, programmers, who brag about their big concentration powers. But can you turn it off? To concentrate one on thing is to ignore 1000 things. If that can't be turned off, becomes habitual, permanent, fades to invis
