I did a quick double-check. The rough sill is the bit at the bottom of window framing, while the bottom plate in wall framing might be called the "mudsill" for this slab-on-grade…

You feed at the trough of A.I slop while criticizing real content creators. I have tried to offer you good advice, but you ignored it and persisted in your quixotic attacks. The…

I'm in the inland northwest of the US near Spokane, Washington. No major seismic concerns. Unless you build near rivers, flooding isn't a worry. Frost depth is 18-24" typically.…

Like I said, this is a WIP. Copy/pasted text is not all fully updated. I am showing incomplete steps in the process while I am relearning. I didn't even have the scale right in…

RE: Rough Draft: Building Section (Work in Progress)
It's a bit of a kludge, to be honest. I design in CAD as a vector drawing, print the layout as a PDF file, import the PDF into GIMP, crop it down from a full page to what I am…

RE: Don't Fall for the Comparison Trap!
No one seems to care about whether they are striving to be more virtuous, or encourage virtue around them. Strange, isn't it? You might be amused, or horrified, by the early…

RE: Imaginary Towers
I have trouble getting past the hobbits in the books being in their 40s and 50s when the actors were in their 20s, but even so, the films did a remarkably good job living up to…

I see real antisemitism on the rise as more people see the evils committed by the government of Israel. It's as if the entire Hebrew race and Judaic religion is a scapegoat for…

Saw that too. There was a story a while back about mushroom identification books which were entirely A.I.-generated. Now, these ChatGPT-style systems are often trained on the…

RE: An Edge of Sadness...
There is a habit of dividing people into four groups. Which member of the Scooby Doo gang are you? Which Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are you? And so on. I suspect it traces back…

I wonder what it's like for people who read the books after seeing even just screenshots from the Peter Jackson film trilogy. You and I read it before then. We had our own mental…
