  • Overtime, our kitchen knives. Knives need to be thin, as thinner knives cut through ingredients more easily. Today's knives are designed instead to be marketed. Something incredibly thick, and sturdy, to make it feel "premium", when all its doing is tiring you out, since using a heavy knife gets exhausting, especially when its so thick it wedges in ingredients.

    Vintage European knives are slim, and almost petite, because they knew how to make a good knife, in the same manner japanese knives are ground extremely thin, sometimes thinner than a postcard.

  • What would you do if there was a zombie apocalypse coming and you had 2 days to prepare?

  • Realistically the military will eventually clear everything, I just have to survive the weeks it would probably take.

    Id buy a bunch of shelf stable food, a wood burner, bunch of lumber for barricading, nails, portable batteries for keeping out phones charged, a big battery for the router (even when thr power is down, internet isnt), guns. A bunch of bottled water too. A bunch of hand sanitizer too to clean out hands constantly if needed

    I think thats all I'd need to sit this out. I think the hardest part would be convincing family that theres gonna be a zombie Apocalypse

  • How can I repair these dents my Ikea couch has been making in my hardwood floor?

    Jump

  • The differences between dents and craters is that dents merely compress the wood, without damaging the fibers, while craters break and destroy fibers. Dents can be repairing by expanding the wood, but craters aren't fixable.

  • You have to remove the varnish by sanding first, then try to iron the floor. There may be poor contact in the middle so try ironing the other edges.

    Other than that, you are gonna have to get new boards installed.

  • All handtools. I'm self taught and I work professionally (as in I do this for my living, but I still don't think I'm very good). I use all Japanese tools and work on the floor. Working on small parts is hard and you need good workholding. Since the Japanese work on the floor, you can just use your foot. Otherwise a metalworking vice works great for small parts, and sometimes a drill press vice. I am super active in a discord server if you want an invite. Super beginner friendly.

  • Spend some time learning to fix everything. EVERYTHING. Knowing a little bit of plumbing, electronic repair, woodwork, carpentry, and cad can save you tremendous amounts of money. Contractors cost crazy amounts of Money, even for simple fixes.

    Yoy dont even need to practice, just read up on it. Recently my sink started leaking, so I though I'd just mess with it. Fixed it with 30$ worth of parts. Dishwasher broke and I fixed it with a 70$ PSU.

    Dont learn how to do oil changes though, most of the time it won't save you any money. Autoshops save a lot of money with volume oil changes.

    Woodworking is a hobby that can pay for itself, and yoy dont even have to sell anything. Wood is everywhere, and free. You have to wait months for it to dry but afterwards you can make anything.

    Ive made spatulas, spoons, snack clips, furniture, tools, storage, cabinets, bookmarks, bowls, cutting boards, knife covers, drying racks, shelves, etc. It gives you a level of self sufficiency that can never be taken from you. It shouldn't even be called woodworking, it should just be called "making shit". It's an extremely useful and valuable skill. Ive even used it to fix computers by making custom brackets and stuff, and a special heatsink mount for an old heatsink.

  • We are reaching the limits of an "infinite growth" mindset. You can't make money infinitely, which is why we are witness unprecedented amounts of shrinkflation, price gouging, and of course, enshitification. And housing prices.

  • Its fucking annoying that I need my phone surgically attached to me at all times, to do fucking anything on the internet, especially anything important.

    This combined with constant logging out is driving me nuts, I truly only have one device that can actually log into everything, all my other devices are logged out so frequently theyre unusable.

  • I make a lot of scrap soup. Any random ingredients, like cans of veggies, food scraps I've been saving for stock, any other ingredients in the fridge about to go back, and any ingredients I want to get rid off, I throw in the scrap soup.

    I usually like to make a cheese base, since it goes well with damn near everything. Cheese base doesn't freeze well though.

    Veggie Mac and cheese is good, lasagna is good and freezes well, I also cook a lot of noodles and stir fry's.

    You can your own frozen junkfood like frozen pizzas to toss in then oven when you feel like it, and stuff like that. You dont even have to complete it, just assemble it, and when your hungry take it out of the freezer and chuck it into the oven, like lasagna, and casseroles.

    Instant pot is great for fast meals too. Its also incredible for stock. If you want to upgrade your knife skills you can buy bone-in cuts or whole birds to use all of the bones and scraps for stock. Basically all food waste goes through the stock pot first before being tossed
