A meter is a Baker’s yard. 3 free inches!
- Comment on 5 tomatoes 1 week ago:
It’s funny how the biggest argument for metric is that it’s so accurate but in real life use it degrades to “close enough”. My main problem with metric is that I can’t get my pencil that sharp.

If only they made a meter equal a yard. Then we could all be bilingual.

I’ve just had experiences with Ai help chats where when I started typing the Ai would try to finish my sentence and would jump the cursor around making it absolutely unusable. I had to type in note pad and copy it into the chat. Staggeringly useless. So if this ‘mind reading’ Ai is like that I don’t predict good results.
Also, fuck you quickbooks.

The shop has experience. They know it’s very probable it will break. They didn’t pay for the lesson, but you will pay for their experience. Get mad at the engineer of the phone not the repair technician.

You’ve got a better mechanic than me I guess. If you bring in an old shitty car for repairs you can expect more than one thing is in bad shape.
- Comment on Repairing Broken Sofa? 1 month ago:
Yes, it’s repairable, but it’s fairly involved. A fair amount of the sofa needs to be “undone” to get the arm off. How much work that is depends on how the couch is constructed. Then it becomes a matter of matching the leather, which probably won’t be possible to make it invisible.
- Comment on Repairing Broken Sofa? 1 month ago:
I am an expert. Or at least an upholsterer. When you say the leg broke, what broke? Did it snap? Did it push into the sofa? Some legs have a bolt sticking out and screw into a T nut that is on the inside of the sofa. Image
Sometimes that punches in and just spins when you turn it. You have to pull the bolt out as hard as you can and try to get those prongs to grab wood. Most legs are one of 2 sizes. You could find another leg and bolt it back on.
It may also be a block of wood that screws to the bottom of the sofa. The holes are probably hidden by the felt scuff pad thing.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with propping it up on a brick or book or whatever. If you want to be less ghetto, take a leg from the back and move it to the front so your guests can’t tell your couch is propped up on blocks

I think they’re cheap stairs without the bullnose. Makes it way easier to carpet. By the looks of the trim this is not a fancy apartment. The lack of bullnose contributes to the optical illusion.

You think a folded in half mattress could get stuck in a stairwell? You might be on to something!

It depends on where you draw the line of collapse. For me I’d say it kicks up a dust cloud. Everything else is just ‘falling apart’.
