Either toss my ass in a dumpster or give me a sky burial. No exceptions.

Nah I'm like this too. Take it one thing at a time. I also recommend the Adam Savage method of buying tools: Buy the cheapest tool you can and if you use it until it breaks, only then do you buy a quality tool since you clearly use it a lot.

It's really only undergrad that's usually uber expensive. My wife is getting her master's for like $10k/year and her company is paying for half of it.

Meanwhile our undergrad was like $40-50k/year with no help.

Also this average is probably averaging current balances, not total disbursement.

My understanding is that wolves don't have "eyebrows" at all. The fact that many dogs have them is either an evolved or selected trait specifically to communicate with humans.

This is why architects need to be on a leash at all times.

All this hardship and money just so they can build a giant glass box in the middle of the fucking desert. Anyone whose spent like 5 minutes in a greenhouse will tell you why that's a bad idea for a city.

I agree. With the cost reduction on renewables, grid-scale nuclear doesn't make a lot of sense anymore.

However, I hope that nuclear will get a revival with SMR technology. Especially as local power facilities for things like data centers and auto plants and other industrial facilities that require as much power as a small nation.

For a fun prank, pour out a small drop of Nitroglycerin and smack it with a hammer to scare your friends. :^)

Get Michelin Cross-Climate tires. They've got a really different tread design that makes them true All-Weather tires that aren't dogshit in the snow and rain.

This is nothing new from Tesla. My parents have a Model 3 and they can't use a car wash at all with it. Hand wash only.
