  • I just remembered the second part of this story.

    Originally I had just 1 top one removed, I wanted to do top and bottom separately.

    By the time I got around to the bottom one, it righted itself and was no longer dangerous to rip out. I cant even remember which ones I got out at this point, I know I only pulled 3/4. That's how unproblematic the fourth was. I only got the other pulled because they were getting cavities from their bastard positioning.

    The dental surgeons looked at me with disdain when I didn't fund their car payment on unneeded work. Simply waiting made it go from "very risky" to non-issue and not a single dentist/surgeon thought of it as a possibility for me.




  • If you tried to discuss it with anyone you would be ridiculed and sometimes even physically threatened.

    I don't know if this is true. You can read plenty of early/mid 20th century books where characters will outright talk about how they don't believe in a god. Sure certain areas you could get away with it more, but I think there has always been some prevailing strain of people just going along with the community aspect and not being a believer.

    Its sadly either an IT degree with an emphasis in looking at PCAPs and hardening servers, or its doing nationstate level hacking. For the latter, the degree doesn't do much unless you do a TON of hacking shit in your free time and teach yourself to dream in assembly.

    What on earth are these discord servers. I don't understand why someone would hang out on a place like that.





  • I have this really shitty drip pot that cost 34 dollars 8 years ago. The drip valve broke off when I dropped the filter cone a couple years ago so now you have to wait until it's good and done before you even think about taking coffee.

    It maximizes my micro plastic consumption but it simply won't die.

    I grind my beans with an electric burr grinder that I have never cleaned and now it's not outputting as much grinds as it should so I'll have to give in and take it apart soon.

    I used to use this hand grinder daily for like 2-3 years. Its a really nice japanese one with ceramic burrs that I bought on impulse. I'm really glad I got the electric grinder as a gift.

    Personally I think kids should vape more. Teen vaping is on a downward trend which I think is tragic. These kids are such dorks.

    They pivot the anti-smoking ads to vaping, acting like its the same thing, and these losers eat it up.
