    Recommended tire brand?

    I had Yokohamas on my car. The same set lasted me several years so when they were down into the yellow zone where they are still legal but close to the threshold, and winter was fast approaching, I had them swapped out with four new Yokohamas. I wouldn't say I particularly insist on them, I've...

    Should the media publicly apologize for false info?

    I remember reading something about the requirements relating to media corrections under English law (which obviously doesn't apply in the US, but the concept is relevant) is that if something is published about a person that is incorrect then the correction needs to be at least the same size and...

    American flag in sanctuary?

    I really don't care one way or the other as long as it doesn't become the primary focus. I think I visibly cringed visiting a friend's church some years ago, when the preacher very specifically made the point that the middle three letters of Jerusalem are USA. When you get that kind of ra-ra...

    Should you argue on social media?

    On social media I think that's a large part of it. It's not about an opinion you can necessarily support, it's about virtue signalling to show you believe all the right things. Bonus points if showing you believe the right things costs you nothing at all. You know, like the people who "stand...

    Should you argue on social media?

    It depends on the purpose in posting. It's one thing to say "here's an opinion, I'd be interested to hear what others think" with a view to engaging the pros and cons of different viewpoints. It's another thing entirely to say "here's an opinion - it's to demonstrate that I'm on the right side...

    Should you argue on social media?

    Debate should be part of society. The thing with social media is that the people who post an opinion usually don't want a discussion on the merits of their opinion or other opposing opinions, it's just a way of saying "this is what I think, end of story". Turning things into memes is a...

    Should you argue on social media?

    Remember the kid in class who ate paste? That's probably who you're arguing with. Phrases like "pearls before swine" come to mind. Social media isn't usually a place to have a useful discussion about anything.

    Trump Guilty on all counts

    I thought this was an interesting read, from a black activist who says Trump is now relatable. https://www.newsweek.com/black-americans-were-first-victims-weaponized-justice-system-now-trump-one-us-opinion-1907952

    Choosing A Church

    Comparing them to what the Bible says is a good place to start, making sure to consider reading the Bible in context rather than picking bits and pieces out of it and stringing them together like a ransom note. To give you an example, a church I briefly attended some time ago would frequently...

    Divine hiddenness

    What sort of evidence would you expect to prove something like turning water into wine, 2000 years later? What sort of evidence is widely accepted in a court of law to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt?

    Trump Guilty on all counts

    ... and Alvin Bragg appears more concerned with prosecuting something from several years ago with no obvious victims, than in prosecuting current crimes taking place every single day in the city he allegedly represents. No need to imprison the muggers, robbers, rapists, murderers - let's go...

    Selling on Facebook Marketplace

    You never know if you're going to get ripped off, maybe with fake money. There's also the question of people who don't show up to collect. I often wonder how desperate someone would have to be to sell something online to a stranger for $2, then wait in and hope they show up, either letting a...

    Trump Guilty on all counts

    It is interesting to see those on the political left claiming Trump will become a dictator if he is re-elected, all while the left is weaponising the "justice" system to neutralise their political opponents.

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    I got a bit of enabling work done today. I wanted to lay the base beam for what will become a closet, but there was a bit of floor missing. I can't just replace it because the bits of floor that were there were unsupported - a section had been cut away so the old bath could be connected to the...

    Trump Guilty on all counts

    You're probably right. If he had been a senior Democrat you can be sure it would have quietly gone away. In unrelated news, apparently some guy named Hunter has some issues with the taxman and potential felony gun charges. I'm sure it's nothing though, it never is. ETA: It's hard to see the...

    Your staple beverage

    Depends on the time of year. In the summer, cold brew coffee. For breakfast, orange juice. I hardly ever drink sugary sodas so don't dedicate fridge space to them. I sometimes like a beer of an evening but there's no single staple - I like craft beer and rotate what I drink. In the winter I'm...

    What made you replace your last car?

    It was getting unreliable. It was my wife's car and with winter approaching I didn't want her driving something that might leave her stranded in the dark and cold, in an area with little to no cellphone service. We'd tried everything we could think of to get it fixed but nothing worked, so we...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Yesterday my suggested workout was a 30-minute recovery run but I really struggle with those because the suggested pace is slow enough I struggle to stay slow enough. So I did a free run, keeping the pace comfortable and taking a walk break more or less whenever I felt like it. Which turned out...
