DAE wish that do-overs were real? | Seriously. I fucked up a lot of shit. And I didn't even realize it until I was going through my old gmails today. I should have done a lot of things different.

Anyone home? Mead questions. | I have a batch of raspberry mead which I think I started last year, end of September/early October. I wrote down the date somewhere and lost the paper. I'm using the Bjarni's basic mead recipe from the home-brewers garden. It looks like the fermentation has stopped, I'm seeing no carbonation inside the fermenter and th... |
Securing a vacation home in Detroit. | I'm from Detroit, but I've had to relocate for my job. We visit frequently, and with decent houses going for around $4K these days, we were thinking about getting a vacation home there.

I got a warning message that my wireless Mighty Mouse was about to run out of batteries at any moment. That was three days ago. | I usually change the AAs out right when that message pops up, but I didn't have any handy and my son would kill me if I stole his Wii remote batteries (again)... one thing led to another and I forgot about it. Then I decided to just let them run out before replacing them and that was 72 hours ago. I haven't turned the ... |
A Rice Cooker can be used as a Humidifier. | When the weather turns especially cold and dry, our regular humidifier can't put out enough moisture. When I couldn't find the warm vapor type of humidifier I wanted in the local stores, it finally occurred to me that our rice cooker would work as a humidifier. It shuts off automatically when the water is gone; making... |

D(id)AE write left-handed until a teacher forced them to write right-handed? | Happened to me in kindergarten. I still throw, bat, and eat left-handed, but I write right-handed.

Today, I'm happy because even though one of my best friends is a Marine in Afghanistan, on his time off he can still challenge my Desktop Defender score on FaceBook. | We played Desktop Tower Defense on Kongregate and Casual Collective in high school together, so I thought it was pretty cool that even though he's over in that shit, he can still game with us here. That's why I'm happy today, what about you? |
Improve Cabal's test support | Whenever I get serious about testing I have to use make to build and run my tests. It would be good if Cabal supported package tests so I don't have to use two tools, which complicates my workflow and makes it more brittle. One problem with using make and Cabal together is that dependency tracking doesn't work well any... |
I've Changed My Mind on Moderation (please up-vote or the misandrists will hide it) | This place is being overrun by misandrists who censor through a barrage of down-votes anyone who doesn't cower to the feminist agenda.

Has anyone else tried the new Dominoes Pizza? Does it taste any different to you? | We got some pizza from a Dominoes here in Alberta, Canada.

Who on reddit **can** concentrate? Has the internet f'd up our abilities to concentrate? | My ability to concentrate has deteriorated significantly compared to when I was a kid.

This is the first creative piece I've written in years and wanted to get some feedback. Enjoy! | *Hydrophobic*
Maybe now you understand
why lipids are hydrophobes;
Your body struck down, raped,

No warning, no yellow sign
to alert you, like lanterns

How can I stay happy with my GF when I've just met a better version of her? | I met a girl at school who is very similar to my current girlfriend (of three years who I live with) except much better in every way so far.

Indie musicians and labels: Would you be interested in selling mp3 downloads from your own website (ala iTunes?) | I've had this idea I've been throwing around for a while: An online music store project, based on osCommerce, which allows indie musicians and labels to sell mp3 downloads as well as physical product from their own website (thus keeping all of the profit).
It'd be an open source project with commercial possibilities.... |
Do not overlook Redman like I did when I first got into hip-hop. | So when I was first getting into Hip-hop I didn't even think to check out Redman. I figured he was too commercial or something because I had seen him in a movie or something. Anyways I was stupid and just passed him over while I was checking out everything. Then I went back to Redman, learnt that he released 3 AMAZI... |

What are the advantages of using a pick over your own fingers when playing guitar? | When I began to learn playing guitar, I learned how to use my fingers first.
