I agree completely, but I did read something tried to be sneaked into an update, and you never really know, software is complicated and maybe some roundabout way to have an exploit using code that looks like it’s intent was something different.

- Comment on What's the point in getting married? 4 days ago:
My wife and met ages ago. We were friends for a while. Went on some dates, and eventually got together. I think we were dating about 8 years before getting married, we knew we were compatible. We didn’t rush anything.
I got married in Vegas, it was a very affordable wedding. That was almost 10 years ago.
If one of us dies, being married is a very easy way to make sure the other person inherits everything they need to survive.
I also see how impressed older people are when we say we are married, it seems so few people get married anymore.
There are so many good reasons to get married. Just be sure before jumping in that both are on the same page of life and goals, compatibility, compromise and understanding, etc.

- Comment on HP agrees million-dollar settlement over "false advertising" on PCs, keyboards 1 week ago:
I had an HP laptop that melted, but they voided the warranty when I unplugged it to stop it melting.
I avoided their products since then. Fucking $1200 gone.
I also have an HP printer and if I were to ever use HP toner it’s over $1000 for the 4 toners. But the generics are way under $100.
I avoid HP!

I had a potentiometer on a circuit board that adjusted a timer, but I found that the timer varied in timing. I ended up replacing with a few resistors and it corrected the variations.
- Comment on What ongoing projects are you working on? 4 weeks ago:
We just got a 2,500 gallon tank, but it’s not connected yet, also going to collect rain water soon. Soon we will have a food garden too, but that’s one of the last things we are going to focus on. At least we started a compost pile already because I know that will take a year or two to be ready.
- Comment on What ongoing projects are you working on? 4 weeks ago:
A homestead. It’s never ending and everything takes longer than expected. Today we are going to move some boulders as a foundation for shipping containers.
Here is a photo from 2 days ago, we did the first half. But the other side will be above ground to level the container. Image

Usually you pull the knob and it is removed. But being that old it might be stuck or break. You need to remove the knob before the switch plate.

- Comment on [Weekly thread] How is everyone doing with their home improvements? 1 month ago:
I don’t have a house. Wife and I lived in a car for almost 4 months, now we have an RV.
Currently sorting rocks by size to make gravel for foundations. Need to setup some foundation blocks for shipping containers, foundation for a huge water tank, then the foundation for our house will be gravel in large sandbags (Hyperadobe) and hopefully we can make enough gravel for the driveway too.

Hope your feeling much better today
- Comment on people who drink, how long do your hangovers last? 2 months ago:
Back in college I would get really bad hangovers a few times. Here is how the absolute worst ones felt.
1 day feeling like trash.
the next day being weak and no energy but feeling so fresh and free, it’s a weird feeling.
Day after that I’m all good.
Then I can’t drink for a long time after that.

So, they are going to hurt innocent people to save the innocent people?
How exactly does this help us? Why attack infrastructure we need to survive? So many other targets I feel would have better results.
