Well-played!
I do. May I enter your domicile and show you?
I have photophobia, which is not a fear of light (that’s heliophobia) but a high sensitivity to light. I have to wear sunglasses essentially sunup to sundown. I keep my office lights off. My display is set to the lowest brightness and contrast settings I can get away with.
I have Transitions lenses and even those aren’t strong enough sunglasses to cope with the brightness. Goodr sunglasses work really well for me as does my $600 prescription sunners. But mostly I try to avoid sunny days and live for the November through March days when the sun sets at 4 PM so I can go outside and enjoy myself.

1·6 months agoThis is a great policy for amateur (ham) radio. Start with the $25 Baofeng that barely receives and transmits all over the spectrum*, then grab the Alinco or TYT, eventually working one’s way up to Kenwood, Icom, Yaesu, etc.
A good transceiver is expensive so working up to the big boys is definitely worth the investment if the hobby takes hold.
*Baofengs are probably the worst first handheld transceiver (HT) because they are so poorly designed and quality control is non-existent. A new ham with a Baofeng is likely to become frustrated and give up. Check out the various ham radio/amateur radio communities for better suggestions for starter HTs if ham radio is of interest to you.
Odd man out.
Yeah I’m going on a bit of a victory lap here, I’m pretty happy with how this one turned out.
You should - this looks amazing! Nice work! I really like how the grain pops on the front of the drawer and the parallel grain on the sides is beautiful.

Ask UK@feddit.uk•What was your first alcoholic drink with friends?English
4·7 months agoUS Army, winter 1996. Just got onto base, pretty fresh from BASIC. I open my barracks door and McBride (RIP brother) says “Here, drink this!” with his devlish grin, blocking my entry and holding a shot glass of some clear liquid. 18-year-old private me swigged it down and nearly choked on the shot.
“WTF is this?”, I asked, gasping and choking.
“Everclear!” he said joyfully, moving away from the door while I gagged, challenge completed.
I passed his…test?.. and I was in the friend group.
