I know someone who works somewhat high up at Apple and he told me another reason was that they really wanted to improve the water proofing.

Yours is perhaps an even better example, but I was thinking of this scene from the second matrix movie:

Either way, I totally agree. I’m Sure it’s tough for even highly skilled actors to share the screen with a master like Hugo Weaving, but for Keanu Reeves, it really serves to highlight how stilted he is. At least for me.

Still seems like a cool guy though and his movies can be fun.

Yeah he’s a truly awful actor. I’m amazed he’s as popular as he is. His real life training to do his own stunts for John Wick is super impressive, and I think the first movie was fine for him since he barely talked, but goddamn, any time he says anything it’s just such a chore to listen to.

The scene in the second matrix movie where Hugo Weaving comes back and confronts him has such an incredible monologue from Hugo Weaving, and then one fucking line from Keanu is just so goddamn stilted it almost ruins the whole scene. Lol

Time to pronounce it jfeg lol

I think you could do this with a pull cut plane after you cut to close to the correct thickness with a hand saw. A pull cut plane will prevent the thin sheet from buckling as you try to thickness it, just have to get clever about anchoring it. You could glue a board to the back and then hook it on a table using that board, plane it until you’re satisfied, then cut the board off.

A date in this context is a time when you meet up with a potential romantic or sexual partner with the intention of having fun together doing some sort of activity.

So first or second time you meet them you should tell them of your intentions as far as commitment is concerned, some might even say before you meet up at all. And definitely before any kind of sex.

As for conflicts between what you say and how you act, that can be tricky for some people, but I would say that you should address that specifically by saying something like “I do tend to act in a way that a lot of people would interpret as long term commitment energy, but I need to be clear that this is just how I behave in relationships, and it doesn’t mean that I plan to stick around. I still am only interested in short term commitments at this time and only if I explicitly tell you otherwise should you think anything else”.

Just say what you think and feel and do so upfront and multiple times. Be open and honest and allow them to make their own decisions without guilting or pressuring them.

Well if you’re not interested in long term relationships at all, then yeah, be upfront about that. First or second date for sure.

Waiting a month is douchebag territory I’d say.

Wait are they getting a new actor for invincible??

Well “all good” is subjective and depends on lots of factors, but generally I would say amongst consenting adults, as long as you’re open and honest, then there isn’t a moral dilemma caused by a relationship having a known expiration date.

The best time to tell them is as soon as possible. The longer you wait, the more morally dubious it becomes imo. I think there can be some exceptions to that based on things like personal crises of the person being broken up with, but in general I would say that it is not your job to protect another adult from information they may find upsetting. It is patronizing to do this, and by contrast, the most respectful thing you can do is be politely and compassionately honest with them as soon as you can.

Don’t be rude about it, but if you’re situation is something along the lines of “I enjoy this relationship but I know that it will not work for me long term” then you should tell them that as nicely but as clearly as possible, and as soon as you can so that they aren’t being lead on.

If they accept that, and you both choose to continue until the expiration date, then there’s nothing wrong with that. If instead your partner decided that means the relationship is no longer worth their time and effort, that’s a perfectly reasonable response and you should do your best to part ways amicably, or transition your relationship into whatever form is most desirable to both of you under those new terms, ie friends with benefits, just friends, or simply exes of whatever level of estrangement.

That’s my advice at least. Again, it’s more generalized as I don’t know the specifics of the relationship.

But generally speaking, the ethics of relationships comes down to consent, and that is only possible when all parties are informed.

You are if you were manipulating them. If you weren’t honest with them about your feelings and intentions, or if you intentionally did things to make them feel a certain way so you could get what you wanted. Or if there was a significant disparity of power between you two such as with large age gaps, particularly at younger ages, or with significant differences is wealth or within other constructed power dynamics such as a workplace.

If you were open and honest both with your words and through your actions, and there was no significant power disparity, then it was their choice to set the boundaries that they did, and to accept the consequences of the relationship they chose.

I think that’s the most I can say without more details.

Lol. Right? It’s normal rope. He could just rip it apart in half a second.

“Webb telescope snaps” Oh no!! “Image” Oh ok. Lol

I actually enjoyed some of those accounts, but for sure some of them were annoying.

Lol. Been there for sure.

Great additions! Using a marking knife is a big upgrade.

Dull tools are the death of accuracy and enjoyment alike.

Lol, yeah I got a bit carried away there.

Woodworking

Measure twice cut once is rookie numbers. Measure 10 times, cut a test piece 5 times, measure twice after each, then do your real cut.

This is a bit of an exaggeration, but you get the idea.

Also, measure after each operation to check your work as you go so you can spot mistakes as early as possible. This includes checking for square, doing test fits, and all manner of sanity checks to ensure that your operations are achieving the desired results before you repeat them on other pieces or move on to do more work on those same pieces that may already be ruined or need fixing.

For glue up, always always always dry fit first. Then plan ahead. Put all your clamps on and have them adjusted before you add glue. Once the glue is on the time is short and you need to have everything ready and waiting.

If you use a table saw, take it seriously. Always use your riving knife when possible, be mindful of the control you have over the pieces, use push sticks and sleds and jigs to improve stability and safety, always wear ppe. Check that your blade is aligned to your miter slots and your fence. Having a slight relief angle on your fence can be good, but never have it canted towards the blade. That can be dangerous. Also make a crosscut sled, they’re amazing.

Beware of dust. It causes cancer and it lingers in the air. Wear a respirator and use ventilation when possible.

Make or buy a workbench with a vise and some hold down capabilities. Being able to hold your work easily is a huge benefit.

If you are looking to improve your accuracy and precision, buy a nice hand plane and learn how set it up, sharpen it, and how to use it. They are absolute game changers. Also make or buy a shooting board for it. Also, buy a machinist’s square, a set of feeler gauges, and a nice 36in aluminum straight edge and learn to use them.

Etc

Obviously that’s a lot, and a lot of it it depends on what you’re actually trying to do, but those are all things that have helped me a lot in my journey towards making furniture, picture frames, cutting boards, etc

He does great work!

The extra nail in the coffin is that he didn’t apologize or show concern at all. He deflected with a bullshit comment about it being a roman salute even though that’s nonsense. Any sensible person in his shoes would have immediately said fuck nazis, that was dumb, I fucked up, not what I meant etc.

Then he goes and speaks at an AfD rally and says germany should move on from its embarrassing past or some nonsense. So if there weren’t already 5 nails in the coffin, he just filled it with c4 and blew it up.
