  • Likely answer —we’re being nerds and reading too much into it.

    No—
    —3 lbs of thrust isn’t going to be happening, speaking from experience with model planes.
    —3lbs of the air inside is compressed and weighs more is even farther from possible.

    Likely—
    —It only has the battery, fan, whatever when it’s running, and they don’t count that when it’s uninflated for some reason. Like how cars have dry weight, curb weight, and gvrw.
    —somewhere in the spec sheets, someone made a mistake, two people worked on things and rounded differently, some other clerical/communicative error.


  • I definitely recommend Baba Is You and FEZ as well. Similarly to FEZ there is a mobile game Monument Valley (and Monument Valley 2) which I adore. It’s spendier in $/time, but I find is highly worth it.

    Bastion isn’t a 2D game, but I’d like to recommend it while I’m at it, it’s play is perhaps close enough, and it’s stunning.







  • Marlon Williams is easily one of my favorite artists. I love the direction he’s taking his newer music too. Top three from his most recent album for me are Promises, Thinking of Nina, and River Rival. He’s also a truly authentic and kind dude. A+ on stage and off.

    In a totally different flavor, he had a guy called Merk opening for him for part of his recent tour, and he’s got some funky stuff worth checking out.


  • While there is a certain level of innate technical mindedness that people have… Being willing to try to fix it, and the lessons you’ll learn from either fixing it or not is huge. Regardless of outcome hopefully the experience will be somewhat fun and pay dividends in terms of being able to recognize where vacuums get bound up with clogs, hair, etc. Occasional deep cleaning will make all the vacuums in your future live longer and suck harder.

    Projects that are ‘either it gets fixed or tossed’ are great, there’s so little pressure, and so much you can learn.

    Feel free to ask more specific questions if you get deep inside it and come up with them!
