I watched NASA’s manual on soldering from 1958. It’s 22 minutes long.
If I can’t suffer through first minute of your video without grabbing my phone, it’s not on my autism, and for sure not on “millennials” — it’s on your shitty content.9 -
For small explosives, you wear an explosives suit — it can absorb the impact of a standard hand grenade.
For big explosives, you wear a T-shirt: with that big of a destructive force, explosives suits are gonna protect you as good as a sheet of 2 ply toilet paper. But not wearing a heavy and bulky suit gives you that much more visibility and dexterity you do need in your situation.6 -
Day 17 of starving myself to death challenge.
Yesterday was… different. As I already said multiple times, I do eat from time to time, but yesterday I decided to fast.
By the evening, my body was completely exhausted. Couldn’t really stand on my own without holding onto something.
Then I laid down and got ready for sleep.
Because my body had zero energy, for the first time in 15 years it wasn’t twitching. It twitches all the time: I have restless legs syndrome, but it’s not just legs for me but the whole body. I can’t stress this enough how much I twitch every day. But right then and there, my body was calm.
As my brain was shutting down and falling asleep, I felt euphoria unlike anything I have ever experienced. I was in heaven. Calm body, empty mind.
I want to say it was worth it, and I probably will do it all again someday.
In the meantime, on I go, without fasting, motivated more than ever!3 -
Curtains on, lights off, cats out
it's just me and my bonsai now
I don't even need a tight belt, I don't feel hungry anymore5 -
Day 16 of starving myself to death challenge. shaking, shivering, disoriented, always cold, can't get warm no matter what
in my chest, I feel the strange sensation of intense anxiety and intense anxiety relief at the same time. I never felt anything like that
I feel like that guy who ate ghost pepper followed by high potency artificial menthol concentrate to see how sensations would neutralize each other, instead fealing both hot and cold at the same time5 -
Be stubborn. Never give users what they want. Ship some shiny feature that attracts new users, then immediately move on to the next shiny feature. Never address criticism.
Users don't know what they want. If you managed to attract them all with your skill set, you know better than all of them.6 -
What do you do when you need good solder, but you can’t get EU/US/Japanese stuff where you live? No, you don’t buy Chinese. You buy ПОС-61, together with 500g of pure rosin, made in Smolensk, Russia.
The recipe and the supply chain didn’t change since the Soviet Union. They arrived today with the order number of, I kid you not, 666, and the set costed me $9 for 100g of solder and 500g of rosin. That rosin combined with ethanol gets you ФСКп flux that will last a lifetime. It does the job and doesn’t require cleaning.
Yes, some Chinese solder and flux are better, but I didn’t find a single AliExpress shop without at least one review telling that the thing they’re selling was fake. And you can be damn sure that if a Chinese listing says that there is 100g of solder, it will be 98 grams together with the spool and paper.
Soviet stuff is predictable. It says 100g, but weights 119g with the spool. If it says Sn61Pb39 that melts at 190℃, it will be exactly that, every time. And if it was good enough for Soviet tech, it’s good enough for my DIY endeavors.
And yes, it flows like syrup, and after it cools down, it shines like jewelry.

Scared Christians like to say “God doesn't make mistakes” when discussing trans people. Well, you're right: God doesn't make mistakes, so he made me trans to test your ability to love.21

Day 11 of starving myself to death challenge.
It's evening. No #2 still, no gas, nothing but pure energy. No hunger or thirst as well. I feel amazing!9 -
Day 10 of starving myself to death challenge! Health app warns me of sharp weight decline trend. I don’t remember the last time I had #2. I feel fantastic5

#2s with bad diet/overeating: several times a day, loud, messy, all over the place, a lot of wiping/washing needed. And you constantly fart
#2s with moderate healthy diet: once every two days or less, quiet, one 2ply paper is enough
@b2plane, I’m looking at you8 -
Today I learned that power-to-weight ratio of modern passenger aircraft is so high that they can do a vertical takeoff. It should be almost impossible to stall those planes. I bet they can do barrel rolls just fine.
Even one engine is enough to fly safely.10
