I went to a Hotel Furniture liquidator for some new furniture. Saw a good looking office chair and they only wanted $20 for it.
Brought that bad boy home and only then did I find out that they had sold me a new Herman Miller Aeron for only $20. Completely insane.
Make sure to loop a lock through the frame and both wheels. I use an ABUS frame lock on my rear wheel (never has to be removed) and a kryptonite chain lock for the front wheels and frame.
If you want to get really secure, replace fasteners with tamper resistant versions.
Nothing is ever theft proof, but there’s lots of ways to make your bike very theft resistant.
Fusion 360 is a watered down version of Inventor, so kinda?
Top CAD programs are: Solidworks, Creo, Pro-E, and Autodesk Inventor. Solidworks is probably the most in-demand.
Pirate a CAD program, learn how to use it, then pay for the certification test.
After passing, you apply for CAD designer jobs or do Freelance CAD. You’ll have a leg up on everyone else if you have that certification. Many of these jobs are remote and don’t require college.
CAD programs may seem daunting at first, but they are actually pretty straightforward. If you can do basic math and play video games, you can do CAD.
Infinity war comes to mind for me. IIRC, the trailers contained a bunch of fake footage that wasn’t actually in the movie to prevent spoiling anything.
Yeah you’ll be fine. It’s not about shoes, its about not tracking in dirt and mud and other crap from outside.
I think I’ll be looking into Boardwalk. I haven’t heard of that before. How long does that 40lb detergent bucket last you?
You like nature, and paddle boarding, and LGBT friendly spaces? Skip the West Coast, come live in the Twin Cities. It’s really nice here, it’s safe, has all the things you’re looking for, and it’s not unfathomably fucking expensive.
The only downside is that winters are cold. Bring a winter jacket.
As others commented, lining up a job is step 1 to any move. That will be be the hard part.
Fed-Ex doesn’t deliver packages. They deliver ransom notes. I’m convinced that Fed-Ex drivers don’t even have package in their trucks. Only ransom notes.
Here’s a case study for you: An eating disorder hotline got rid of the humans in favor of an AI chatbot. Lasted less than a week before it was giving horrible advice.

Psychology will be controlled by humans, probably forever.
Anything between you and the ground is always worth buying quality. Shoes, tires, mattresses, etc.

All these comments and not one mention of Tasting History with Max Miller. If you like food and/or history, check it out.
I lift 3x a week. I do it because it helps my mental health a lot and I feel good afterwards. The high is real but you gotta push yourself pretty hard to get it.
As for starting, start small. Maybe start with a half hour walk every day. Then make it longer. Then replace the long walk with a short run. Then longer runs. Then maybe you want to try something else that’s a little tougher and you start lifting weights. That’s what happened to me.
But you gotta stay on schedule. That’s the hard part. It’s really easy to get complacent and stop.
This is the answer. I’m 26 and most of my peers didn’t really use the internet beyond the occasional usage of the school library computers until Apple released the first iPhone. By that time places like Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit were up and running.
That’s all their experience with the internet is. Polished experiences through dedicated apps on extremely popular platforms. Now those people have had kids and all those kids know is the same thing. It’s all apps on phones and tablets.
Lemmy: A) Is too complicated in it’s current form for those types of people to effectively understand and use.
B) Lemmy is currently emulating a type of early internet experience that only nostalgic older millennials nerds crave. General users tend to prefer bigger platforms.
This one is definitely going right to the ideas bin. I love new and creative ways to make the party question their sanity.
