Ah, very interesting. At some point I'll clear room and take my dad's saw. That predates 2003 for sure, but I remember it having a flappy clear cover over the saw and two serrated tails to prevent material slide back (not sure if that's also kickback). It mounts into where the riving knife would be and I assume it's mount is, effectively, a riving knife itself. We never did fancy work though, just plywood shelf cutting (now replaced with a battery circular saw) and ripping 2x4s like idiots.

Based on the context in the video, it seems like people remove it. Why?

Holy fuck. That intentional accident genuinely upset my stomach. I don't think I know anything about table saw safety. I guess it's good I don't own one but at least now I know what the shark fin is for. I've had my fair share of incidents with chop saws, handheld circular saws, and chainsaw wheels but chop and table saws stills care me more than cutoff wheels.

I'm no ecologist but this sounds sound to me. That is, assuming, pay comes up too and not just the cost of living.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

It's not just urinals. The first day of the year with shorts at home always brings a surprise chilly mist on my shins from a regular toilet. It is what it is. You're doing it as good as it gets. Either you're experiencing the normal amount of spray or your stream makes extra spray. Either way, it is what it is, it sounds. All you can do is lean forward and spread your feet asuch as you can to avoid collecting the mist. Side wall is my go-to. Lipped walls are my enemy.

I forgot about FTFY. I don't know if I've seen it on lemmy

There's like 10 years between starting Pokémon Red and beating the final four for me. I didn't have the guide books but eventually it was easy to get help from the internet for a handful of hangups. I put it down for a long time somewhere after like 4 gyms, came back years later, and spent maybe 6 months playing on the commute

I assumed the job of the camp was to break up the silhouette more than make the person invisible. Humans know an orange hat and strap comes from the store; deer do not. Is that really not the case?

Side note about the brakes reference: that thread was frustrating because the headline readers were assuming the mechanical brakes were being deleted and relying solely on regenerative braking. They weren't. It was replacing the hydraulic portion of the mechanical brakes with electronic sensors and actuators. While I naturally have concerns about electronic failure, it's not like hydraulic brakes are immune to problems. I've had lines rust out and leak, pistons leak, pistons seize, lines clog, and slides seize. Very anecdotally, no failures of electric parking brakes.

Anyway, very neat etymology for both a term and tool I use. I never really considered "try" to be separate meanings between "attempt" and "test" because I took an "attempt" to be a "test" of ability.

So did most of us. No reason to be hostile to someone who took more time but still committed. The day they monetized the API was the 3rd best day. Today is the 4th best day.

This list has a certain... Je ne se quois about it

Why not Reddit? I've found more reddit users irl after I left than anytime before. Seems plenty normal. Otherwise, facebook/tiktok/Instagram/YouTube scrolling. I assume Tumblr and Twitter, too. A myriad of endless mobile games based around bubbles, blocks, or tower defense. I've also seen cross stitch and paint by numbers type apps. I'm sure there's people that doomscroll regular news sites.

I'm guessing you're looking to use your time better and want recommendations though, not just a list describing how every cohort is doomscrolling their little diminishing dopamine box.
