I did notice that the Mexican coke that I occasionally buy as a treat (in the US) got new labels printed on the bottle instead of just a sticker.

For some reason it doesn't taste as good as it used to though. Feels like even more sugar than previously maybe? I should look it up.

I was half way hoping you'd say Estwing... I love their hammers. I have two of their cross peens that I used for (backyard, redneck) blacksmithing for years that still get use any time I need some girth/weight and one of their "masonry" hammers that I use for stone work (again, backyard/redneck shit).

Their 3/4 axe (I think they call it a camp axe) is also solid.

What's your favorite hammer?

Thank you, I have a new goal in life.

Garmin is where I landed too.

I couldn't do the instinct 2 solar because of the 50mm size (I have dainty little wrists) but the instinct 3 solar is available in 45mm.

I'm over a month in and at 70% battery with minimal direct solar, but it does give it a 1-3% bump when I'm working outside.

At this point, I have to see how long it can go without charging.

(Again, I don't use any of the "smart" stuff, just the heart rate monitor for sleep tracking - is that a new thing to require HRM for sleep tracking? Long ago, they did it with the accelerometer)

A web interface? Is the keyboard running a webserver or is it remotely managed by the manufacturers website?

I'm confused about configuring keyboards via web app.

I remember looking for a new watch awhile back and seeing a review that said "The battery life is outstanding! I get almost two whole days without a charge!" and thinking "naw dude".

But, I also don't like "smart" watches... or "smart" anything. I want a damn watch that can occasionally do GPS tracking when I want it to and the battery should last, at minimum, one month.

I already carried a flashlight in my pocket and now I have one on my watch. Phones are obsolete.

Just (re) started Dead Space after not playing it for 10-15 years. Still good, still enjoy, why buy when I can just replay games I've forgotten the story to?

Same for Control a few months ago... And I'm sure others.

Came here to post this... even though I haven't seen it yet (it's on the list!)

Hey! You can't say that on the internet! You have to say fuck

This may explain why I'm wearing a hoodie in the office in late June while most everybody else is comfortable or still hot.

But, I also do lots of outdoors stuff and acclimate to heat up to a point.

The center point of the pie chart, where the lines meet, is slightly off. It's making my eye twitch.

This was me on Sunday... And then also on Monday after replacing the cap and then realizing that the fan motor was janky (which might be what caused the cap to fail)

Reminds me of a similar phrase from reloaders: "if it seats it yeets"

If by AC you mean air conditioner, I just replaced mine with a 50+5uF dual cap @ 370/440 VAC

Can confirm. Though, I picked up a cheap steel pot from goodwill for this purpose ... cast iron was too expensive for my lead melting needs ; )

Same place for me I'm betting, but three weeks on a longer "choose your own adventure" route. We chose to hike most of every day and cover as much ground as possible instead of stopping at the more "comfortable" areas that had facilities.

I forget the exact distance but pretty sure it was over 225 miles.

Promise in one hand, shit in the other, let me know which one fills up first.

I've got family that is on their third pet raccoon. I'm not sure where the last two came from but the first was a baby when they got it. They cut down a tree that had a family of raccoons in it and that one survived so they just... Kept it.

It was very entertaining but could be an asshole when in heat.

O, and I worked with a lady that had one too. Apparently they can survive a massive opiate overdose because it ate an entire bottle of painkillers (oxys? Hydros? I forget) while she was at work one day. She said it was stiff like rigor mortis for about 36 hours then eventually just got up and continued on like nothing had happened.
