For sure. Reversing the percentages here makes this far more difficult. I just felt we needed to shittify this post a little.

Great for calculating tips!

Let's see: the bill was $138.72, so I just need 138.72% of 20. And we can subtract 100% and just add the 20 back at the end, then convert the percentage to a decimal so (.3872 * 20) + 20 = 7.744 + 20 or $27.74.

Easy!

The antidote seemed pretty harsh

My insurance actually went down when I replaced my VW golf with an F150 lightning.

Conversely, my tabs cost 7x more.

But in CA, the value of the vehicle is very impactful and there's an additional $118 EV tax considered in registration fee calculation.

It has been a minute since I've seen Southland Tales. What a trip! Time for another rewatch.

Stellar list overall too!

With you. Love beer, cocktails, whisk(e)y, amaro, etc. And I really don't like getting drunk (I do sometimes, but always regret it).

2-3/night is my usual. Usually a beer after work then another 1 or two throughout the evening. Add an afternoon beer or cocktail on the weekends. Well-spaced. Almost never more than 5 drinks in an entire day.

Not if you're lactose intolerant! But then it's also a shit post. A violent and painful one.

I'd guess this is a mustang and that would make it the "small" engine (~305hp) for that car, the other option being a 5.0L.

Inspired by 1975 F1 cars.

 

I took the toaster apart and cleaned the contacts for the lever that signal the hold down while toasting. Now we don't have to stand there and hold it (that was 3 morning routines slightly out of order).

I had to buy a set of special bits because someone decided they needed to use security torx bolts in the corners hidden under the feet. This was of course in addition to the 14 regular old #2 Phillips screws. But it's always nice to have a reason to get new tools.

In other news, the clean signal started flashing on on the espresso machine today, so I have another little project for tomorrow too.

 

I don't really have anyone else to shout at about this, but it's an amazing way to host services in rootless containers entirely in user space using systemd (systemctl --user).

I applied some paste wax to the table saw and was pleasantly surprised that it made a difference.

I think I'll have to use this on the wood runners on the old dresser I have too.

In case you're concerned, it's just a little DeWalt contractor's table saw. No sawstop or powermatic here. That's for the cool guys on youtube.
