Two laptops? Is one for work? I have to carry two phones, unfortunately. Work and personal.

Interesting, never heard of runner belts. Makes sense that they would sell something like that. Runners need to carry stuff, too. Thanks for mentioning it.
Every option is a compromise.
If you’re slender and wear pants that are fitted (not baggy) it’s challenging. Bigger guys with loose fit pants can get a surprising amount in the naturally larger pockets.
A courier bag AKA messenger bag is the man’s version of a purse, and is certainly an acceptable option. It is annoying to carry all day and keep up with. But you won’t have the weird-looking pocket bulges. They come in myriad sizes and designs.
There’s the “utility belt” thing where you clip a phone holster to your belt. They also make pouches for this. I think one or the other is “OK” but definitely wouldn’t do both. You’ll end up looking like Batman or a police officer. Things clipped to my belt are annoying to me, but some guys do it every day and it works fine for them.
Some guys wear vests with lots of pockets. A select few can actually pull this off, but, it’s going to look dorky 95% of the time, IMHO.
Windbreaker or light jacket with pockets is another good option. But in the summer, not always ideal.
Horizon Forbidden West. Went on sale earlier this week.
I try to remember that we’re voting for an entire administration and presidential appointments, an apparatus much larger than one old man. It’s cold comfort, but it’s something.
As I’m watching it, Mozart’s Requiem in D minor is playing in my head.

Kyle uses “son” a lot. Makes me chuckle.
I had a buddy in the UK I chatted with on this thing in the early days. We thought we were so cool using it. We were not.
Researchers will be studying Trump and his followers for decades to come. A gold mine of data to help them better understand the mechanisms of authoritarian populism and cognitive dissonance.
Yup. They violate HIPAA all the time, too. Rules for thee, not for me.
Oh cool, Cunningham’s Law in action.
Here’s an updated way to bypass it. This Youtuber is a little cheerful-cheesy, but the info is good.
That’s not what we’re talking about and you know it. False narrative. The article specifically mentions violence and bullying. If you don’t know that fat people also get viciously bullied on top of the “concerned about your health” from loved ones, you are the one who is isolated from reality.
Skyscrapers typically take 2-5 years to build. I’m going to hazard a guess that a pyramid like the Great Pyramid of Giza would take more like 5-10 years.
There’s a lot of variables to this, especially the location and the source (quarry) and transportation of the high-quality limestone that you would need. You would also want to use some granite and other stone materials if you’re trying to match what the ancient Egyptians did. (If you’re allowed to use modern concrete and steel, it could change things dramatically.)
The Great Pyramid is about 147m tall and 230m wide along each side. Assuming it’s mostly solid stone, You would need roughly 2.5 million cubic meters of material.
Preparing and grading the site would go much faster with bulldozers and graders and the like, but is still a time-consuming process. Quarrying the limestone would also go much faster than the ancients because we have explosives, hydraulics, etc. But there’s still a lot of precision cutting and fitting to be done. Cranes would make placing the stones go faster but again, still time-consuming.
CAD software would also make the whole project faster and easier (and would further highlight how ingenious the ancient people were with this accomplishment). Experts already know a lot about the pyramids, but I bet if they built one they’d learn even more.
My wild guess is: if you marshaled enough resources and put a highly competent person in charge of it, you could get it done in 5 years.
Niche <> bad.

You know you’re right, we’re nothing like reddit!!
Try selecting it and then press Control+period. This should let you move and rotate the origin in the usual ways. Then press Ctrl+period again to get out of that mode. I hope I understood what you needed and this helps you.
Sure, but that doesn’t address harassment and bullying. If you think they just “need a thicker skin” you haven’t been bullied in any meaningful way by a large group of hostile people.
If it’s good enough for Chewbacca, who am I to argue?
