Or at least the same number of numbers.

That definitely looks like a guy who would have ploopy open source headphones.

Needs washed, but you can just heat the oil on the stove if you've seasoned the thing in the first place.

If more poeople had your perspective, I wouldn't be constantly tempted to block this community. On my other account I did block after about 2 weeks. I have a bicycle, electric cars and work from home, but I can't bicycle my 4 year old to swim lessons two nights a week 25 miles away. I have other kids and other time obligations you know? Doing the best I can, but it takes a car for now.

Doesn't this defeat the point of taking your shoes off inside? If your concern is tracking in dirt or germs on your shoes, tracking them on your feet is arguably worse unless you've got foot wash stations at the doors.

My feet are kept warm by keeping my house at a temperature where I am comfortable.

I think I'd still just go barefoot personally. Socks aren't bad, but shoes for carpet kinda misses the point of carpet IMO.

I have a pretty reasonable grasp of delta V. While my comment is flippant, you can launch Eastward from the equator any day and end up in space: deep space if you have sufficient velocity (though usually you'd do that with one or more gravity assists). The sun is the only other place you can go any day, but there's huge angular velocity to overcome to make a direct shot.

It really really is the case mathematically that if you just want to go to deep space it's not as difficult as trying to figure out how to go to a particular place, as anyone who has ever done trajectory planning with STK will tell you. More difficult from a cost and engineering perspective, sure, but mathematically easier to just shoot in a direction at escape velocity for the sun whatever day you want.

I don't think $7 is a particularly hefty fee. If it's a grocery store they typically aren't paying employees to do shop for you, it's an extra service for an extra charge. I think I pay $10 per order from my local grocery.

I mean yeah, the sun is in one place, space is basically anywhere else. It's easier to shoot anywhere than to shoot somewhere.

Which unfortunately means every time you pull it out you can get on lemmy, if you have a new email you can read and reply to it, you can play a quick bullet game of chess... Etc etc. Phones are great, but they are also finely tuned distraction boxes.

I'm trying to wear my watch more.

Eh. I don't think you need to specify "stalk". I would be fine with physical buttons anywhere within easy reach. If they want to make a racing wheel that has 30 switches on it, I think I'm fine with that.

I appreciate that SOME things don't have buttons now: getting into a BMW with that has the same number of buttons and switches as the cockpit of an airliner is ridiculous.
