Yea, I’d opt for a dry lubricant. The loading is so low, and garages are potentially exposed to all sorts of dirt, debris, sawdust, mud, and who knows what else, can’t go wrong with graphite

I’ve found dickies 60/40 poly/cotton socks to be good quality and last years for work and working out and they wick moisture well. Darn tough or other wool socks are only worth it for me for specific hard-use applications like skiing or long hikes. I think the best value lies somewhere in between. Cheaper good quality socks for everyday use, and high quality wool for specific uses. Having an abundance of normal socks is nice too when socks become unexpectedly soiled or wet. Running out of socks and having to put on a crusty pair because I haven’t done the laundry isn’t ideal. Some days I’ll wear 3 pairs… one for work, one working out, and then a fresh pair after showering. I don’t like the idea of having to “ration” my socks.

A mouse doesn’t seem like a BIFL item… and you can find one at goodwill for $4

A free old machine off Craigslist, lol. Survivorship bias.

Who else tried to select cock muscles first?

Fundamentally, how is Iran selling Russia weapons any different than NATO arming Ukraine?

Not defending Russia/Iran, but if you want to escalate providing weapons to direct involvement the implications are clear what that means.

Hopefully, but wheat is a very resource and land intensive crop. It is the worlds bread basket, but it often doesn’t make sense to grow when it can be imported at 1/3 of the price from climates that are more ideal growing conditions and benefit from scales of economy. It really does come down to cost, if farmers can’t make money growing it locally, they won’t.

Our Overeated* world. There’s already food surplus, and most countries are facing obesity problems. In first world countries subsidies artificially inflate crop prices so farmers can make a living.

I hate to be cynical, but at this point I doubt this would be a large scale solution. Farming in the modern world is incredibly efficient. Supply chains and distribution are the problem

It has a tail coming from the ground and is clearly moving upwards.

Unidentified in the literal sense, sure. But as it’s colloquially used… you’d have to be a real smooth brain operator to infer this is anything other than a rocket.

What’s a potato?

they’re useful as a rough torque indicator. Do jack shit for preventing loosening.

They are mostly useful for assembly. you can put an impact on a bolt and nut in a thru hole and hit it without having to trap the nut with a wrench, because the lock washer will “bite”

Range will continue to increase. But yea there’s still a lot of infrastructure and logistics to work out.

Just pointing out its drastically different duty cycles compared to a 3-shift manufacturing environment

Semi truck drivers need to sleep and are limited to 11 hours driving in a 14-hour work day after 10 consecutive hours off duty… so these are nowhere close to the same scenario

Toggle bolts rely on the strength of the parent material, not the anchor itself. Doubled drywall should be even stronger. The wall basically has to buckle around the anchor to fail. I’ve hung a large TV on articulated arms (think lever arm on bolts), in a 100 year old lathe-and-plaster construction house with four toggle bolts, and no stud mounts. A pot holder should be fine.

What’s the worst that can happen, OP has to patch a wall? … it’s not like a potholder is gonna bring down the ceiling

Yea you can. Use toggle bolts.

Most are rated over 200lbs in drywall… which is usually the worst case scenario. If it’s lathe/plaster, concrete, or other masonry they’ll hold even more. Just need to be able to punch thru to open space behind the wall.

Art is asymmetrical. Just drill in some random screws and give it the security tug “that’s not going anywhere” and call it a day

Lol, you have to apply salicylic acid twice a day for like two weeks. As someone with ADD it’s not a schedule easily kept, making it pretty ineffective for me.

Probably just a coincidence. Warts are caused by a form of hpv.

It’s crude but I’ve found heating a paperclip over a candle and burning it down to the root slowly is 100% effective. Doesn’t hurt if you do a lot of quick dabs… it kinda just vaporizes it little by little and cauterizes so there’s little risk of infection. Salicylic acid works but takes forever and requires a consistent application schedule (terrible for ADD). Have had mixed results with freezing… both the kits and liquid nitrogen from the doctor (which they send a hefty bs bill for).
