Why do Americans measure everything in cups?
  • I'm honestly surprised that this solution to my problem never even occurred to me. I guess I'm gonna go look for a decent mechanical scale now. Any recommendations?

    Why do Americans measure everything in cups?
  • I like using my scale, but it's a cheap PoS and shuts off after 10 seconds of inactivity. I really need to upgrade to a better one.

    Pick One: Which is your favorite way to read books?
  • I do this as well. I ended up reading the rest of Azarinth Healer and am now working on the wandering inn. If I could buy physical copies of these books I would just to support the authors.

    Raising prices you say? Oh that's too bad.
  • my main issues are the lack of hardware and lack of media libraries. I'd basically have to build those from scratch since I've grown up for more than half my life with streaming services being the main way to watch anything it also doesn't help that I have very little experience using a computer as anything more than a way to browse the internet. I can use a phone like a damn wizard, but you give me a laptop or desktop, and I might as well be an 80 year old that's never seen one. I'm sure I'll figure it out eventually, but it's gonna take me a little bit of time.

    Gaslit rule
  • exactly.

    it's supposed to be paid time that you can use to make up for the hours you missed while sick. That way, your paycheck doesn't take a hit.

  • I just got written up at work for attendance. I asked them about it, and they said it was because I called out 5 times across 7 months.

    How do people understand each other?
  • I've been practicing that alphabet for over a year. I still see some of them, and my mind just blanks. It's fun, though, slowly understanding more as time goes on.

    What is the best thing that could happen to you this week?
  • If I found or was given about 10k, my life would take a pretty nice turn towards being able to stop relying on my parents when a crisis happens.

    My wife's car has a blown headgasket, and we were quoted by 2 mechanics that it'd be about 5k to fix since the engine overheated for a long period of time (sensors didn't tell us it was overheating) and needs to be replaced. This is dumb since I still owe about 5k on the car it's self so I'd probably just pay the car off to get out from under it and use the other 5k to find a better more reliable vehicle. Man, that shit would be nice.
