OMG, yes. I'm glad someone else understands.

The way I describe it is this person sees the world as a stage that was put there to entertain them. Like the world is their personal TV.

When they talk about other people, they use phrases like they were entertained watching so and so. Or there was something happening they didn't agree with so they closed their eyes. Or it makes them happy to watch some people do something.

And whenever they see something bad happen or about to happen to someone, they just watch and turn away once they are bored. They never warn or help anyone. To them, it's just a blooper real or a slapstick TV show episode.

Did he wait until late afternoon Apr 2nd?

He failed to do it "the day l'm elected."

He failed to do it the day he was sworn in.

He failed to do it, like 5 times from Jan - Mar.

He failed to do it Apr 1.

He failed to do business during business hours Apr 2nd.

This little baby just keeps failing and hiding.

Women are amazing and as qualified as any man for any skill.

Also, Elon cries so much I'm starting to think his kids aren't genetically his due to equipment failure, unless a doctor and test tube are involved.

Racism. That's how.

Damn, I started a high deductible health insurance and last month got it high enough to invest part of it.

Fingers crossed I'm still employed for a while to buy in at the lower prices, and I live long enough to recover.

Countries with national healthcare also don't have their healthcare dependent on the stock market. I'm jealous.

Not anymore. That just turns into a long diatribe about how it is different and they are actually smarter, so their feelings really do matter.

I do have to see this person often, and I now just want that interaction as short as possible.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 hours ago

Unfortunately this person reasons just fine. Lives normally. Just has a warped view of the world. It doesn't make sense how people can be so blind to themselves.

Ukraine needs to be in NATO.

Hell, with the way Ukraine fights, NATO needs Ukraine more than Ukraine needs NATO.

Save Ukraine!

 

Started on one computer mouse needing a new AA battery. Then re-glued the foot pad that had fallen off and was making it rock. While vigorously testing the other foot pads, they came off, and so I ended up re-gluing them all.

Then went one to another mouse and started to clean some dust in the corners of it. Turned out the dust was enough that I had an excuse to take it apart. Then there was enough random tiny fibers/hairs that I couldn't get off that I went to use the air compressor to really get it clean. And re-glued the feet pads here, because, why not.

With as much as I take apart my computer mice, it causes the factory sticky tape to fail. So I actually cut out an access whole where the foot pad covers the hidden screws. And then I can use gel super glue to keep the foot pads down fully without curling.

 

Currently installed is a recent (about 10 years) Harbor Bay 5 blade ceiling fan with 44" blade diameter.

In a box I have a recent (about 10 years) Harbor Bay 5 blade ceiling fan with 52" blade diameter.

Yes, the large blades will run the motor harder.

Would these two fans likely use the same motor, so that I can just swap the larger blades and leave the current motor? Or is there a high chance the motors are sized specific to their blades, and I would need to fully swap the motor to use the larger blades?

The blades appear to use the same connection.
