I'm not sure if this is going to be seen, but I was temp banned or am still shadowbanned or something? Either or. If you do see this, yes, you are both right that I would be best to be using a maul. But not everyone has a proper splitt

I used to see this happen with our old TV's at an old house with really bad grounding. I always wondered why it did that. We could be playing a video game or movie, and set all the other tv's to channel 2 or something like that, w

Yes, but it defeats the purpose of the intent to share with as many relevant people as possible; since you have to build up that membership count in the first place. So it really sucks when the Reddit mods get out of control from time to ti

Yes, the drone approach is very tempting. But I still insist on us removing the need to use of manmade chemicals that don't exist in nature naturally... (That I am aware of...) For instance, I am all fine and dandy with using lye soap

Hi there. You actually just kind of stepped into my ring here... sort of. Not an expert; but definitely more knowledgeable than the random person out there. I used to work with G.E organisms. Particularly enzymes. Long story short is this.

Thing is... if your methods work well enough to help you avoid the thing you wish to avoid; does it matter if it's right or wrong? It works, right?

Here's a helpful trick for those of you who might need to get some firewood going but the chainsaw gave up the ghost. It can be kind of tricky and kind of dangerous for the foot if you aren't careful; but you can split a log lengt

Yes, I meant Abandonware, thanks. Sorry about that. Hmm... I could have sworn it was legal; but it looks like it's only legal once the copyright expires and nothing prior like failure to support... Even then, all they have to do is do

What will likely end up happening is the more dedicated fans of the series will do what others have done with old MMO's and make their own servers and such to ensure the game stays playable. There may be some legal issues, but once Ubi

Not the person you are asking, but I think I have a point that can help shed some light on the matter. I'm going to be speaking from the Canadian side of things, and so I'll be saying 'We' a lot due to the US and Canada

So, I'm not alone in wondering if they should be treated like bible thumpers, or not. Good to know. Also good to know they aren't bible thumpers, and just happen to be 'Christians' monitoring science, as per the name imp

Thank you. This is pretty much what I am getting at as well, though in different words. But of course, the general populous thinks it knows better than the people who actually know best. That being those of us who have been able to live our
