Reply to Is there a cheap way of making a 1” drill hole bigger (2”) in a granite wheel without taking it to a drill guy? by Wokebro369
Get/make an appropriately sized mold, shatter the granite, and use it as ballast in a new concrete pour for a plate.

Read lying down as much as possible. This allows you to partially close your eyelids, which should help in keeping them lubed.

Reply to Cooler Insulation by Firefox_1607
Add more styrofoam. You can pack less ice/food/etc, but every bit of insulation is that much longer everything stays cold.

You have identified the problem exactly. There's virtually no difference at all between the two barrels as you described. Eventually, maybe, there might be microscopic differences between the two if both of them have been used a lot, but even then it's not the "focus, magnify, magnify, enhance" crap from NCISSICCIENDUF:New Orleans:SPUWIOM.

Ballistics matching is a thing, but it's not the hah, magic bullet that Hollywood has made it out to be. If you can recover a bullet and a gun, and you run them through an analysis, it's generally possible to match the lands and grooves of the gun barrel to the mechanical deformities of the bullet. Glocks initially caused a panic when they were introduced, being mostly plastic and having polygonal rifling, because they were "undetectable plastic guns with barrels that left no trace". Bull, of course, but a good political talking point.

Hey, if you've got the executive functionality to shop, cook and clean up fresh, healthy foods, good for you. Not all of us can handle that after working a twelve hour shift..

Any shredded foam pillow should do you. I'd avoid CrackPillow's products, they are overpriced at best, and you'll need to adjust the fill to your needs when you get it. I recommend a trash bag and take about half of it out.

Reply to WIRED computer mouse. I'm particularly interested in one with a cable that will not fray. They seem to fray very shortly after I get them. I want the cable to be like a quarter of an inch thick. I don't care if the thing weighs 5 lbs. My budget is $200. by TheJawsofIce
Kensington Expert Mouse. Trackball superiority, baby. Plus scroll wheel, 4 buttons, chording inputs, macros, program-selectable specifications, the works. Also, wireless. Or, if you get the wired one, the cable won't fray because it never moves.
