Is it weird that I still want to go for my PhD despite all the feedback about the process? I don’t think I’ve ever met a PhD or candidate that’s enthusiastically said “do it!”

- Comment on 40-year-old delivers for DoorDash to help pay down her $100,000 student loan debt—on top of her full-time job 1 month ago:
As a near 40 year old with the same amount of student loan debt, I have absolutely considered a part-time gig to help pay down the loans. But the amount seems so enormous, and the repayment would be so comparatively small, that the little free time with my family is far more valuable.

You are my kin. I tried it on Gamepass and brushed it off as boring like 15 mins in. I see all the great reviews and I want to try it again but now it stings to pay $15-25 for it. Enjoy it.

- Comment on Plumbing mystery - what is this? 3 months ago:
I’m open to the ghetto solution for the time being while I cap it. I replied to another comment with a pic of the main vent stack so it looks like I’ll be able to cap it. Just have to figure out the best way to do that.
- Comment on Plumbing mystery - what is this? 3 months ago:
Almost exactly what I said too.
Thanks for taking a look and the advice. I just went through our old demo pics and noticed the small pipe runs up and joins the primary vent stack. Now I can plug it and be done with that stench.
Think an expansion plug or should I try to chop the pipe and cap it?

I chucked an old hard drive with something like 20 bitcoin on it from my college days without ever giving it a second thought. I think it was like $5 each then. Imagine my surprise when BTC hit $20k.

Just to add that I took a look on CL and eBay, and the prices ranged from $350 to $900. That’s nuts!

I’ve been dying to relive those younger days with the drum peripheral but it’s damn hard to find nowadays. I wish I could find something for my Series X to play with my preschooler. She’d get a kick out of it.

Dude, get out of my head. I’d just been on and stumbled onto themes while looking for a way to better format for desktop. Love the addition.
Was just on my way here to pull you leg and say you’re single-handedly responsible for my consuming large amounts of Reddit content again.
- Comment on Leaky foundation help (pics in body) 5 months ago:
I’ve seen that drain system and I think that might be the least expensive way to deal with it. I’ve heard mixed reviews but generally it seems to work. Our layout makes it tough to run it along the perimeter to the sump pump but it’s still more accessible than digging the exterior or drain tiles.
I appreciate the help.
- Comment on Leaky foundation help (pics in body) 5 months ago:
That’s what I’m leaning towards. I don’t see any coating, except for the floor. I’m thinking that and a lucky rabbits foot are my last shot.
- Comment on Leaky foundation help (pics in body) 5 months ago:
That’s a whole lot of digging! What’s strange is that the corner where I ripped the wood sits under our entry stairs, which has a 3’ overhang and is almost always dry. The other site sits under concrete so my hands are tied to the interior for now.
Thanks for the suggestion.

- Comment on Apple Vision Pro available in the U.S. on February 2 5 months ago:
I’m an early adopter and probably Apple’s target audience. I sure as hell don’t have the cash on hand to buy it and I’d consider financing it but - I have such a bad taste in my mouth from the AR/VR concepts over the years. The Quest was a flop for me. The XReal Air too.
They’re fun, for a bit, then they sit in a corner. I could see it being useful on my work from home days but outside of that, my phone is the most compelling partner to my Mac.

This is wonderful! I occasionally go back out of curiosity (aka to confirm it’s still trash) but refuse to engage. I’d hoped I could find an extension that would prevent accidentally upvoting or commenting. This is much better. I’d give you gold but “we don’t do that here.”
Kudos, Dev!
