Funny, but proper therapy would mean that you learned how to handle the trauma so it would not be so easy to do this.

Perhaps we have not yet found the animals that they have had to kill in the past to survive....

My expectations? I guess I expected I could have at least half of what my parents had. Which I almost can. They afforded the house on one salary and my mom stayed at home. Me and my gf both have to have full time jobs. But, we can only pay a smaller house.

My parents had five kids and sometimes struggled with money. We have one kid, two salaries and still struggle with money. For basic stuff. Just food and drinks and stuff you need. And the occasional bottle of wine or whisky.

So I guess I got around half of what my parents had. What I would have hoped for is that if two people work 40 hours a week and most of the time more, we would not have to struggle. I would have hoped we could save some money.

I would have hoped that I would not be waiting with service for my motorcycle until I have the money. Or be anxious about the yearly review of my car, because there could be high costs to get it approved another year.

I don't mind working, I don't mind working extra, I don't mind working hard. But right now it feels like I get nothing in return. It's just expected, and you get to survive. That's it. You want more? A little more space in your house, or a little bit more time for yourself? Can't be done. And that is frustrating.

Edit: seems people agree with me, thanks for the support.

It actually makes sense. I've seen big and small companies. Small companies are focused, flexible and people usually have a connection with the company.

At bigger companies, everything goes slow. And nobody gives a shot about anything. They do what they need to do in order to get paid, but not a step more. Everything is slow because at least 2 layers of management need to sign off on decisions.

A piece of double sided tape might be enough if it is not that heavy. Just make sure to take slow passed and not too much at a time.

If it is really small I've been know to just hold it against my orbital sander, just be careful for your fingers.

I don't know if you have a router available? If you can make a leveling jig that you can run the router over, flattening is easy.

Mine already reboots every night. It's a setting I can change on my OnePlus.

I enabled it long ago. A reboot will also kill anything that is running in your memory like a page mining crypto or a virus that has not yet gotten to your file system yet. Or at least I'd like to think so....

Anyways, the reboot also insured that if my phone is ever taken from me, after 24 hours max they will have to both enter my PIN and my phone security code. I wish them good luck. There's not much interesting stuff on my phone, but that does not mean I want everyone to have free access too it.

I feel like the best wood workers are the ones that know how to do creative problem solving well.

Like, they make just as much mistakes as anyone else, they just know how to solve them better and quicker. I really love video's where the wood worker makes a mistake, admits to it and shows how it is solved. Keith Johnson woodworking is one that comes to mind.

So forget about your silly mistake. Laugh, and think of how you are going to fix it. It is a shop jig, so simply joining it back together in a strong way seems fine to me.

And thanks for the laugh, this would be something I would do too...

Oh no, they will not go until a proper base is built. You don't expect them to actually do any physical work now do you? First get the slaves in, built a nice cozy home for the rich, and then, when the world has all the comforts they need they will move over.

Just be glad they managed to fly around your ship and not through it. Navigating at those speeds is hard, matching speed with an older ship, connecting to it and transfering all the people over is probably also difficult.

Not to mention those in the older ship are probably brought into hypersleep in a different way then more modern ships, so they might not actually be equipped to handle the people from the older ship.

HBO also allows a code on profiles.

Where is that comic about standards now that we need it? The one where they create a new standard that is going to solve all the problems, except for now there is just one more standard??
