I've been watching the Tally Ho Youtube videos. I just kind of stumbled across them after seeing a news clip that the boat was recently launched. I find the videos surprisingly interesting considering I am not into either boats or woodworking at all. Anyhow, this guy bought and old wooden yacht orig...

Is it just me or is the site super slow (as in laggy) these days?

Is there a vaccine shortage or is some other factor leading to the lack of others doing the same as you? Possibly just ignorance of the scope of the problem or maybe some anti-vax nonsense post covid? Anyhow, I'm curious to see how Milei works out for Argentina. Drastic reform is clearly required, s...

Unpopular opinion: pour a ton of money into genetic research to make people smarter, share the technology with the world, wait a generation, then we could stop spending so much money and killing so many people because even if another country takes over it won't be so bad. I'd support that approach ...

Putin is going to be threatening nuclear war until somebody calls his bluff. If he is crazy enough to start a nuclear war when his country is under no threat and it's just his ego at stake then he is a full blown narcissistic psychopath and I figure it is just a matter of time until goes down that r...

Another problem with a low range hood is I've had condensation on it from steam, and it dripped in my pot.

Hate it when that happens!

Assuming you sampled your pot to see if the condensation had detrimental effects, I am wondering if it was the bang on the head that made you dizzy?

It's a good idea, but I'm sure it would cost more to process/package foods without plastic. Which might be money well spent. Still, in these food inflationary times, I doubt further food cost increases would be popular. And corporations, being corporations, would pass on double the cost of required ...
