    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    A more gentle run today. My suggested workout was a 45 minute base run. I went a bit faster than the suggested pace, although not enough to trigger "too fast" alerts on my watch. When the suggested workout finished I added another mile and a half or so, to get back home while still getting in...

    Favorite coffee creamer?

    I just take a splash of milk because I blend coffee specifically for the flavor of it and I don't want any strong flavors to overpower the blend. A while back my wife took to using flavored creamers and I told her if she was going to use that there was no point paying for quality coffee because...

    NY ban on gas stoves

    Who cares? The people proposing this madness won't have to deal with the fallout of it.

    The law of attraction

    The law of attraction seems to be based on an idea that is arguably true up to a point and then tries to turn it into a universal truth, breaking just about everything in the process. To an extent it's true that we experience what we expect. If we go through life assuming everyone else is out...

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    Today was supposed to be nice all day but this afternoon we've had wave after wave after wave of heavy rain. We were supposed to watch a friend's son at a sports match but decided not to stand in a field in the pouring rain. Apparently the field was a mess because of all the rain.

    Ceiling Fans

    Fair enough. I think I'd look into moving the lights to add a fan but if you're not comfortable with electrics it could be a bit spendy to pay someone to do the work.

    Lämmchen's Workout Thread

    I had three days of running indoors, which gets tedious. Yesterday the morning was reasonable but I needed to get some lumber, which I don't want to do in the rain. By the time I'd let lunch digest it started raining, so another day of running indoors. This morning was sunny so I took the...

    Bird Feeders

    I've heard that if you're going to feed birds to help them through the winter it's critically important that you feed them reliably and consistently. Apparently if a bird is struggling to stay alive because it's so cold and expends the energy to fly to the feeder expecting a meal only to find...

    People starve to death in Kenya while fasting 'to meet Jesus'

    That was intended as a generic you, not you as in Albion. Apologies if that wasn't clear. Perhaps we've been talking at cross purposes. I agree that there's a world of options between "believe everything" and "doubt everything". I don't see a problem with considering things in a range that...

    Handing out things for your church

    Care to elaborate? If we are allowed to leave our holy book in a hotel room why shouldn't another faith group be allowed to leave theirs? Obviously they would need the same permission from the hotel but assuming they had that permission why shouldn't they do it? Those situations could always...

    Trump vs Biden

    There's also the question of which ones are genuinely seeking help, which ones are genuinely seeking the chance to earn a better life, and which ones are simply seeking a different selection of victims. If I were in their situation I'm not sure I would thank my new host nation by distributing...

    Handing out things for your church

    I don't dispute the presence of the Gideon Bible is standard, the question is where we draw the line between what's acceptable and what isn't. Some would argue, not inherently unreasonably, that if the Gideons are allowed to leave Bibles in a hotel room there's no reason why a comparable group...

    People starve to death in Kenya while fasting 'to meet Jesus'

    Can you not listen without assuming every single thing you're told is 100% accurate? I don't need a specific reason to doubt my pastor to at least consider what he's saying - I certainly trust my pastor to not deliberately mislead me but that doesn't mean he can never be wrong about anything...

    Windows Update

    That will be neat. There's no "forcing" Windows 11 - you can use Windows 10 without regular updates. I used Windows XP for a long time before shifting to 7, and only moved from 7 to 10 when some software I use regularly stopped supporting Win7. I don't imagine I'll be updating to 11 until I...

    Ceiling Fans

    We have six installed and another four in storage so I can fit them when the rooms that will take them are finished. I wanted to get them before the price went any higher and also make sure I could actually get matching fans. In the bedroom we sometimes blow air gently upwards in the winter. In...

    Handing out things for your church

    Sure, but if there's a flyer in the drawer inviting people to come to the forthcoming meeting at the Seventh Church Of The Apocalyptic Lawnmower the visitor has the exact same freedom to read it or not read it, to attend or not attend etc. The relevance of the Bible to a large number of...

    People starve to death in Kenya while fasting 'to meet Jesus'

    That's not what I said - I said we should test and I stand by that. It doesn't mean doubting everything, it means considering that it might be correct and it might be incorrect. As with everything else we can develop trust in a pastor but that doesn't mean the pastor is right on everything. We...
