in my experience, you don’t need to disassemble. Apply generously and the oil would be absorbed in a couple of hours. You can put on a 2nd layer to be sure.
Paint protects from the outside and water seeps through its openings. Linseed oil saturates the wood to keep water out (it helps with insects too).
linseed oil, reapplied every 2 years, can be enough to water proof
looks like an accident waiting to happen
I think they mean that drivers ignore crosswalks. I also first assumed they meant pedestrians ignore crosswalks, but in the context that doesn’t make any sense.
you’re right. i should have read more carefully or i should have just stopped reading to go to sleep.
Some drivers not only ignore, but accelerate to pass before the cyclist or the pedestrian “claims” the crosswalk 🤷
Pedestrian 118 is just idiotic. I understand car accidents can happen, but a pedestrian??? That tells me you purposely ignore crosswalks or drive recklessly in slow speed areaa
is this a joke?
jolly good then
This community also allows for things that just last significantly longer than usual :)
for some of us that’s already “life” 🙃
life is “significantly longer than usual” indeed
I don’t know about the Lemmy com as much, but the vibe I used to get from the Reddit BIFL community sometimes horsehoed back around to being something materialistic. I feel like avoiding planned obsolescence is important but so is maintaining stuff.
BIFL threads help with which brands to avoid and which to prioritise when you need to buy. I’m also subscribed to repair communities like !diy@lemmy.ml where the focus is on “maintaining stuff”. I think of BIFL as breadcrumbs for people who are sick of paying for things that won’t last a year’s use. We all value, i assume, what you wrote above.
second that
I’m curious. You use a stylus as a mouse replacement? Do you have a screen on your stylus for precision or is it just muscle memory?
muscle memory. I don’t even need to drag or move the cursor from one end of the screen to the other. I can just “touch” the other side and cursor jumps.
And when you need more precision (and feedback), hovering the stylus above the tablet is enough to move the cursor before touching.
i too was surprised to see this in “for life”.
in my experience, no mouse can be bought for life
My partner has been using the vertical mouse daily for about 5 years now. For now wrist pain isn’t “caused again in a different way”. All this depends, of course, on elbow and up to shoulder posture.
i’ve always used a tablet with stylus and I’ve never had wrist pain. Have you tried ditching mouses and trying a stylus instead?
shower thought after reading that email:
i wonder if Bill secretly started using Linux after that
it’s good to do it on a new laptop. It makes migration easier to have the old system alive next to it
that’s why they recommended “dual boot”
We had the right idea back in the 80s and early 90s by running everything via the command line. it’s faster.
keyBindings with a simple windowManager is even faster than the command line :)
What the heck is going on during those 6 minutes? That is crazy.
🤣
So now I think I am going to have Moviemaker. I go to my add/remove programs place to make sure it is there.
It is not there.
What is there? The following garbage is there. Microsoft Autoupdate Exclusive test package, Microsoft Autoupdate Reboot test package, Microsoft Autoupdate testpackage1, Microsoft AUtoupdate testpackage2, Microsoft Autoupdate Test package3.
Garbage indeed.
vertical mouse helps with the carpal tunnel syndrome. Your wrist stays straight in a natural posture and that helps if you’re working with a mouse all day long.
you can see this by just looking at your hand. Flat mouse forces your hand to be in a “wrong”, meaning stressed, position.
that said, this isn’t the most ergonomic vertical mouse. It looks more like a rotated flat mouse.
Would be 100 right now if she had led out for a few more months.
at that age just knowing what a password is already a triumph
GrapheneOS upgraded to 24 with a click/touch, i need to manually update LineageOS :\
