    I mean I have a greyhound who can countersurf, you just put baby gates around the kitchen and food. Keeping stuff out of snoot height/range removes most issues.

    Part of it is training them that it isn’t an appropriate thing to do. It usually helps that if they behave (and we’re eating something the pup can safely have) they get a bit of food as a treat.

    Training is a must and especially with a dog that big you need to make sure they know what is expected and appropriate. Doing that sets them up for success and makes it much easier to care for them overall.




  • I’m not a huge fiction person in general, most of the books I read are textbooks/technical manuals or other non-fiction.

    Some documentaries are fine, it’s highly variable based on the subject matter and how much the director tried to make it “movie-like”.

    I’m not a fan of music most of the time, I only really listen to it when I’m exercising. It’s basically to set the vibe for my brain.

    However I do play role playing games quite a bit, which for some reason my brain has decided is not boring.

    Podcasts though, make my brain release that sweet, sweet, dopamine drip… I listened to something like 52 days worth of podcasts last year? Again most of the topics are the same as the books I read.

    I do consulting, so podcasts fill the void between meetings, if I need to taking a break, or as an escape hatch so if I have a particularly hellish client, I don’t fire them.

    I don’t particularly like having “free time”. If I’m not being productive, my brain goes “Ah, I see we decided on depression as our option. Magnificent choice sir!” I basically have to scratch a particular itch my brain wants me to scratch to maintain my mental health.

    Which is partly why I’m in consulting, it scratches that itch and I get paid so it’s kinda a good gig.


  • What about someone who truly does not enjoy watching TV or movies?

    I understand I’m in a very small minority. However watching TV shows or movies doesn’t interest me at all.

    Watching TV or Movies to me is like having stare at a blank wall for 3 hours and forced notice how the faint cracks on the paint spider along it for the entire time. Afterwards I’m supposed to feel like it changed my life or it was somehow an enjoyable experience.

    It’s absolutely not my cup of tea.

    I don’t hate anyone for enjoying them either. I’ll listen to friends or family talk about things they watch. I enjoy seeing how much they enjoyed watching it. It just doesn’t interest me in the slightest.


  • It is arbitrary. While what classification a substance is may have some grounding in research, it’s mostly up to what interest group has either lobbied to get something under or whatever group law enforcement wants to be able to get easy charges for. Cannabis was Sched I because it made it easy for law enforcement to get big sentences for minorities and the counter culture participants of the day. Same thing with LSD and psilocybin.

    All the DEA scheduling is just pick and choose your charge for whatever ideological ax they want to grind. Hence why things don’t line up with reality

    It’s because your nozzle is ever so slightly too low when you’re printing. I’d adjust your Z offset by one click upwards.

    Reprint the cube, and see if that resolved it. If not adjust upwards by another click.

    If after a handful of times you can’t get a decent ironing pass, I’d take a look at your extrusion multiplier. Drop it down by 0.01 and recalibrate and retry doing the above ironing calibration sequence again.
