Personally, I would get the straight bar first. The EZ curl bar is great, but was designed specifically to target biceps. I’ve used them for tri exercises too, but I think you’ll get more mileage out of a straight bar. You can bench, curl, squat, lunge, etc with a straight bar. Some things would be ill advised to attempt with an EZ curl.

I took his comment to mean the people who accepted that tinnitus was not physical.

I am aware of what I don’t know, and having something which hallucinates produce something I want to use seems silly. I wouldn’t be able to verify it independently because I’m not smart enough. It just seems like asking for trouble. Like I would ask the thing which gave me broken code in the first place to fix it? Smort.

I’ve so far avoided using LLMs unless I need something explicitly explained. I don’t know enough to be able to verify any code it would produce, so I don’t know what the hell these vibe coders are doing.

But I’m also a little long in the tooth to be starting this, so maybe that’s part of my problem.

As someone who’s been trying to learn Python recently, this resonates with me. I am glad I will always fuck it up.

Oh but now I’m gonna!

Funnily enough, that’s a type of butter pronounced with a hard g.

Yeah, I mean it isn’t j raphical interchange format.

Luckily they’re (mostly) self sufficient.

Oh yeah, we can see everything in the pasture from the back deck of the house. The 6 month.old calf tries to play with the sheep, but they don’t understand why this giant is chasing them.

Sheep are, in my experience, the dumbest livestock around. The will shove their head through fence openings to eat the exact same grass on their side, get stuck, and then just bleat to be rescued. They are coyote unaware, and will stare at them instead of running away to the barn. They fall in ponds and creeks and can’t get back out. Get tangled up in blackberry vines and get stuck.

Wild sheep are probably smart in order to survive, but domestication has removed all semblance of cleverness.

I haven’t, no. The name of this place is (or reasonably should be) Good Enough Farms.

Most of the things are pretty easy. The sheep are self-sufficient most of the time, unless they’re lambing or getting stuck in a fence. The are the dumbest mulotherfuckers around. Same with the cow, but since she’s nursing, I supplement with alfalfa pellets. Other than her and the chickens, there isn’t a whole lot to do but manage the nonsense from afar.

Well enough, I’m always injured in one way or another but the work still needs to be done. I realized after this happened the chicken feed needed to be replenished, as did the alfalfa pellets for the cows. So that was neat, carrying the feed sacks where they needed to go like a decrepit old man.

I bent over this morning to scoop out some feed for the chickens and threw out my lower back.

So, not enough it seems.

I’ve had this same issue, and tried lots of things. Bar Keeper’s friend, that orange paste crap they sell, all of these are abrasive and scratch the surface of the ceramic, allowing the stains to get worse.

The answer is two-fold. To clean it, fill the sink with very hot water, like near boiling. Then, mix in some powdered oxi clean and let sit for 15ish minutes. You will be amazed when you drain the sink how clean it is.

The second step is to reseal the sink with a commerical product, I found several on Amazon. This will prevent it from happening again, but not as well as when the sink was new. I haven’t found any products that reseal it quite as well as the factory sealant.

Hope this helps you.

The best part about this, and the one I don’t see echoed enough, is that Cavill is a nerd. And I mean that in the best way. He ignored the call casting him as Superman because he was in a WoW raid.

He is invested in the Witcher series because it means something to him. He’s played the games, read the novels, and he was constantly pushing back on the writers and producers for straying. “Geralt wouldn’t do that, or Yennefer wouldn’t say that…” Etc. I love that he was passionate enough about it to stick to what he knew was correct.

This guy’s a fucking veterinarian?? Ha!
