  • I read the news. Feedly rss reader which opens the articles directly into Firefox with no script, ublock and bypass paywalls add-ons. Very easy to concentrate on the article content when there are no nags or ads on the screen.

  • I know these guys are fairly shameless but how can they not be embarrassed to back out on deals they've agreed to. Getting kicked out of the position would be preferable to me than having to renege on something I spent a lot of time working on with other people.

  • I used a jig with a small cutting wheel to score the bottle then heat the score line with boiling ( or near boiling for thinner glass) and then dip it in water to break along the line. Polish with emery cloth or high grit sandpaper. The less delta T between the hot water and the dip water the smoother the cut. Finding your preferred Temps for the thickness of the glass is the art.

    Edit: Boiling water

  • I made a bunch of drinking glasses. I used a jig to score and hot water to pop it off so it broke smooth and relatively even. Light polishing and there you go. After doing it a while I got the feel well enough to do with beer bottles which I would then drink liquor out of and shatter against the side of my house during bonfires. Unlimited possibilities

  • You have to think most of these guns were brought by accident and were pistols. Most people keep their pistols loaded because they have them to kill other people if necessary. An unloaded gun is less lethal. People who carry all the time seem to get careless after a while. Inb4 stories of people with pistols just for snakes or bears or whatever, that is definitely not the most common use case. I know someone who had a gun in his bag and they charged him like $500ish dollars to mail it back to himself and threatened him with fines up to $2000 but there were no additional fines levied.
