inHit 500 stacked frames on a single target and the noise reduction blew my mind
Honestly, I'm kinda surprised. I mean, I've always felt like stacking past 200 frames just gives diminishing returns for the processing time.

inStruggling with a seized seatpost on a 2019 Trek after trying the ammonia trick for three days straight.
That acetone and ATF mix is a classic. I've had good luck adding a bit of heat too, like a heat gun on the frame tube for a minute before you try to turn it. Just don't get it crazy hot. The real trick is patience, letting that mix work its way down for a full day, maybe even giving it a few more taps with a hammer to help it creep in. A long breaker bar is key, but make sure your bike is really secure so you don't twist the whole frame.

inHad to pick between a band saw and a hand saw for a custom order last week
I mean, I read somewhere that hand saws can actually give you more control for certain cuts, even if they're slower. Makes sense you got a clean result, you're not fighting the machine's speed. Idk, maybe it's just me but sometimes the old school way forces you to pay more attention. That extra 15 minutes probably felt like forever though.

inMy neighbor's comment about his old tent made me rethink gear upgrades
Totally get that. My grandpa's old wool coat is still the warmest thing I own. New stuff breaks if you look at it wrong sometimes. They don't make things to last anymore, it's all about selling you the next thing. A few scratches just means it's been on real adventures.

inPSA: My friend from Chicago called 'Severance' a 'workplace horror story' and it made me start the show.
My whole family watches those high-stress cooking shows now, which @emmar75's friend nailed.
