    Short quotes that speak volumes.

    Sounds like it would have been a cool plan, but that alleged quote is nothing more than a fabrication that's been making the rounds after being pumped up by certain charlatans — which kinda validates some of the first line, ironically enough. 🤔...

    How do you listen to podcasts?

    I've been listening to piles of podcasts for years, and though I still have yet to find anything that beats Castro (which is free and awesome if you run iOS), people also seem to like Overcast, PocketCasts (I haven't tried the subscriber version and have no desire to pay $40 a year to do so)...

    ^ Quality post; couldn't agree more. 🍻

    Your favorite hunting knife?

    I'm still very happy with this Bark River EXT-1 in S45VN. The blade thickness and profile seem pretty much ideal to me, and the ergonomics are pretty great, too.

    For use as a hunting knife? 🤔

    Best hunting knife

    Yeah, Elmax sharpens just fine. And it’s pretty balanced as far as powder-metallurgy steels go, so it’s not even close to being the highest-edge-retention one, either. Look up Rex 121 or Maxamet if you want to see some really crazy levels of carbides and hardness ratings. 😁

    Best hunting knife

    The Cub isn't exactly a purpose-built hunting knife, but it works fine — and as a camp knife, it's hard to beat. And although the Grizzly is obviously ridiculous, it sure makes chopping fun.

    That looks pretty much perfect; very nice!

    Agreed. And horses for courses; I wear different stuff on site visits and the like.

    Pant for Business Casual

    Yeah, it's sweet getting a decade out of something that continues to look and feel good instead of having to more-frequently replace low-quality stuff that starts visibly degrading after a few washes. Saves money and time over the long haul in my experience, plus shopping for office wear is not...

    I don't know, but once they hit 70% off they're worth it for me. I haven't ever paid full retail for a pair. Depends on the job environment too, I guess.

    Pant for Business Casual

    If you want to splurge a bit, then the fit, quality and details in Incotex products are pretty hard to beat. I try to snag them at seasonal sales, since MSRP can get pretty eye-watering. My oldest pair is from 2014 and it’s still holding up despite being heavily used for things like partying...

    Yeah, unlike those bankers who only got to jump. 👍

    Yep, especially on its fiftieth anniversary, we will never forget the cruel tragedy of the Allende coup.

    How do you listen to podcasts?

    Personally, I’ve never really got on with Spotify’s interface. I prefer to keep things separate by using a podcast-specific app. My favourite so far is called Castro; it’s free, reliable, and is well-featured for offline storage and playback. Podcast Addict is supposed to be great too, but...

    ^ Wait, are they saying that last part like it’s a good thing or a bad thing? 🤔

    Yeah, The Line was a pretty good listen.

    The new season of Blowback should be pretty great:

    For sure — and it it goes back way farther than that, too.

    Military service late in life

    Y'know, there's a really simple and effective way to avoid this self-inflicted problem: don't invade other countries. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
