The downside is that CNC woodworking videos are less interesting. I know it's not "easy", but it looks too easy compared to less automated methods. Some of the most enjoyable videos I've watched are of people using Japa

There are two design approaches to wristwatches that I haven't seen but which I think have distinct benefits: wide (landscape) bodies/faces, and bands with batteries in the links. In Sci-Fi, it's normal to see landscape displ

Some of these differences and what the "game" deems as correct are just arbitrary and have no right/wrong. And some of what they deem as right is arguably wrong, or at least is not right without additional context (such as wh

I think in this case it has some value because of the ritual or the mystique of oysters. There is something about their presentation, their distinctive texture and flavor, and of course the ancient belief that they increase sexual virility

With respect to the item they have chosen to create, I think there's a solid rationale. Oysters are considered a delicacy, not to mention their fame of being (supposedly) and aphrodesiac. So the oyster is a good showpiece to replace,

I used to enjoy oysters in the past, before I learned about the significant health risks that come from eating them raw. If you're unlucky, you can be in for a seriously bad health trip. Also knowing that oysters are essentially water

Some beer is so bad, maybe you don't notice? I imagine the only way Budweiser can still sell beer is by buying exclusive vendor rights at sporting events.
