Sorry OSH Cut, Inc. used your awesome online sheet metal bend checker tool to fix my part and then submitted the order to sendcutsend. I feel they owe you like 20%. They were 1/2 the price and twice as fast!

Healthcare for seniors through Medicare advantage plans (Kaiser and other HMOs) is such absolute trash. If you have an older parent the best thing you can do is get them back to original Medicare so they can get actual healthcare. It SUCKS for them.

🔥🔥🔥🔥“Then I met Matic. It’s a complete rethink of the household robot. From design and navigation to cleaning performance and mobility, it’s been built from the ground up to address the problems of today’s robot vacuums. And it succeeds.” 🫡😍🥰

This is what happens when you ignore the hype and instead just build something that does useful work reliably for an actual use case. And does it today.

For the first time made mods for my dirt bike which ended up being cheaper than just buying premade aftermarket parts 😆 sendcutsends pricing is getting really good. These were $45 shipped. 0.125” SS 316

One advantage of having a heavy bike is that you don’t have to worry about somebody just picking it up. I’ve left this bike in some questionable parts of Oakland over the last 2 years with just the wheels locked and it has worked out so far

If America suddenly stopped being a capitalist country - all these folks would get instantly deported or lynched. The only reason anyone different is tolerated in this world is because they are useful.

Went off to Death Valley the last two weeks to do the SoCal backcountry discovery route. May not look it but it was a truly relaxing trip. Living off the bike for days is hard - but life on the trail is easy. California is amazing.

Folks using solidworks with 3d experience - did you get force upgraded to 2026? My var says it’s impossible to not get force upgraded with 3de. Is this true? I’m kinda screwed now since folks I work with refuse to upgrade.

If I want a professional looking single page mobile friendly product website / landing page for my bike is there some AI tool I can use to generate the html/js/css/assets or do I still have to hire a human? I have little aesthetic sense.

Test rode the Infinite Machine s e-scooter / moped today. Personally not a big fan of how it looks but it rode great. Joseph Cohen how is the olto a class 2 ebike with a 2kw motor? Is there software controlled dual licensing going on? Do I need a m1 license when it’s not limited?

Made the mistake of hiring someone who appeared very knowledgeable on X, went to a good school and worked with big companies on complex projects. Colossal waste of a month. Big company career employees are net negatives in a startup.

Apparently I have to make a semi professional website for my bike and get a domain for a “work” email so Chinese / Taiwanese suppliers take me seriously.

Haters kept hating but china kept on building. And now the most innovative (low weight, high utility) motorcycle in 2025 is made by a Chinese startup.

This is in 3 hours. I live in a city and it'll still take me about 1 - 1.5hrs total to drive, find parking, walk in and out of a neighborhood target. Amazon is insane.
