Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Where you live, Combination-Head Screws are widely used?
26·6 days agoI love that this is a common conversation. Allow me to pick up where we left off. No we don’t use them because flatheads are bullshit. A flathead screw driver always slides out at speeds comparable to the average speed of other heads. And don’t get me started on phillips. They are designed to strip. Then you need a square head to remove it, so you might as well start there. Default square head. Other than square is inferior to star. Torx is the one true driver!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•40 year olds, what financial advice would you have for a 30 year old?
7·25 days agoGood boots, gloves, kneelers etc. Good quality tools. Your tools (your body especially) are an investment. Buy quality. Buy to last. Take good care of them. Per the literals. I swear by Kobalt and Dewalt.

10·25 days agoGet in the habit of wearing a backbrace. When you move something heavy, when you work in the yard, whenever you need to bend or twist a lot. Backbrace.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you reply to people saying "i have nothing to hide?"

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you deal with procrastination/laziness?
7·29 days agoSet it up so it is easier to start after you finish something else or while waiting for something else. Eg writing an email I don’t want to write. Open it on a different monitor than a game. In between matches type anything on it. Sometimes I get going well enough I just exit the queue.

9·2 months agoGo, honor your father, and celebrate the death of any future obligations you have to your shitty aunts.
I use a 40% keychron with low profile brown switches. I use qmk to set caps to control, left alt + hjkl to arrow keys (vim everywhere!) And right alt to escape. I have two. One for home and one for work. Best hardware purchase I’ve ever made. Highly recommend!

If you have to ask randos on the internet if you should let someone be in your life, then the answer is you can and should do without them
I’m huge on giving acts of service and gift giving and on receiving physical touch and words of affirmation. Quality time alone is equally as important as quality time together.
