There is a sweet spot where you put it off a bit but think it through while stressing, then spend the time powering through it while leaving some time to spare in case you screw it up. Only took a couple of decades to get decent at estimating!

snooggums@lemmy.worldto ADHD memes@lemmy.dbzer0.com•You know you're going too far when you're using square bracketsEnglish3·22 minutes agoIt isn’t unique to ADHD, but it is very common with ADHD. Pretty much everything that defines ADHD is something everyone does but dialed up to the point that it is a disorder.

More music, more discovery.

No longer than a spring loaded knife or one with a thumb opener thingy or one in a sheath.

No reason to carry knives in public
snooggums@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you believe that the people should be able to have guns to protect themselves, or should the police have the sole authority to own and posess guns to protect the people?English1·41 minutes agoPistols are military weaponry. Most pistols are designed for sale to militaries as their primary audience.
Regular pump shotguns were used in WWII for clearing trenches. The really common AR-15 in the US is a very close equivalent of the M16. Most hunting rifles are comparable to most sniper rifles.
Which small arms are used mainly comes down to what is available to carry, what ammunition is available, and how well they hold up in local conditions. The AK range is extremely popular because it holds up extremely well in a wide variety of conditions with minimal maintenance and it does especially well in desert/sandy conditions compared to almost every other rifle. It is also mass produced in a ton of places and as a result ammunition is plentiful.
They mainly use weapons produced for militaries because that is what is available and reliable enough for their use. They would have used any small arms they could get their hands on that performed as well.

I think the right to have a gun should also include the legal requirement to take and pass a tactical shoot course.
Sorry for engaging with your premise!
Odds are just as high that the example $360 is an insultingly inflated price just like the $20 is likely to be far lower than what someone else is willing to spend on whatever is being sold.
snooggums@lemmy.worldto Casual Conversation@piefed.social•How do you listen to music?English1·2 hours agoIn vehicle: android auto or blutooth from my phone.
Computer: I used to play a lot of music from youtube, but haven’t for quite a while after starting to watch how to videos or Dust and other short movie channels.
Work: headphones, sometimes earbuds and something those shokz skull vibrating things that let me hear what is going on in the background. Both via blutooth from the phone.
Workshop: I have my 20+ year old receiver/amp with speakers and a subwoofer from my early 20s hooked up and I stream my phone through a Roku plugged into a TV that has component outputs old enough for that receiver. Works surprisingly well!
I should really add some more songs to the phone. I had a limited list I’ve carried over from an older phone with a lot less storage and there is plenty of room for all my ancient ripped CD tracks, although so many of them are just ‘Track 01’ or something. Not sure if there is a way to rename them to track titles.
snooggums@lemmy.worldto Ask Me Anything@lemmy.ca•I got married to my husband exactly 2 weeks after meeting each other, AMA!English3·2 hours agoIf you and your husband were running from a bear, who would get away and would there be any tripping involved?
I tried to edit to clarify immediately after but there might be some timer before editing.
Your guy was much of a dick about you not taking the offer as the OP seller was about getting a low budget. People who treat ‘make me an offer’ as some kind of preset range and get mad that others don’t agree make the whole offer process painful.
snooggums@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is possible to learn to swim, just by reading a lot about it?English2·2 hours agoLots of books say that.
snooggums@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is possible to learn to swim, just by reading a lot about it?English2·2 hours agoMost people don’t immediately drown during swimming lessons, so yeah knowing the motions to make means they should be able to handle calm water as long as they don’t panic. Heck, knowing how to do the dead man’s float is enough for the vast, vast majority of people to stay bought for a long period of time.
Toss them in a heavy current and odds of survival are minimal without prior practice.
On the rare occasion that I make an offer for something it will be very low because that is what I’m willing to pay to deal with the whole ‘male an offer’ process. A low bid is a low bid, not an insult.
