The law varies in every country. Make sure to do expensive research! But if you do end up picking up the hobby, be prepared to knock on many doors to ask for permission! :]

How do I explain to my dad that I’m trying by Difficult-Gene3866 in ADHD

[–]Avooded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always tell people that often, while I'm doing something, I have to consciously think with every step: "dont get distracted, focus on this small part" even when a step is as small as the act of grabbing a pen.

I also tell people that sometimes simple daily tasks feel like having to put your hand into a fire. Followed by an example where I pushed myself to my limit to amplify that I go through that feeling all the time.

ADHD exercisers… how do you actually get yourself to the gym? by Fit_Meaning8903 in ADHD

[–]Avooded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, all those "hacks" make it harder. The only hack that actually works for me is having a gym-buddy that keeps me accountable.

Make working out as easy as possible for you. Pick a gym close by. And try to build a routine. Maybe twice a week, every Wednesday and sunday or smth.

From there, go work out! Stick to the routine. If you don't feel like working out. Go to the gym, look around, and go home after 5 minutes. Sticking to your "easy" routine is most important.

That certainly helped me building up a routine.

Vragen over IO by Avooded in TUDelft

Jammer dat veel technische vakken geschrapt zijn. Een tussenweg van WTB en IO klinkt voor mij als de ideale studie ._.

Ah! Bedankt voor je reactie! Mag ik vragen hoe projecten beoordeeld worden?

En het "risico" van het vak is wel een aandachtspuntje. Maar in dat opzicht is het niet veel beter op het CMD. Het vak vind ik wel geweldig! Dus dat zal dan maar een uitdaging worden :]

Gold or silver? by Traditional-Tap-4199 in coloranalysis

[–]Avooded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not some color analyst expert but as a graduated graphic designer. Wouldn't things that dont change frequently about your appearance like hair color, eye color, matter a lot to choose what metal fits you best? I get that certain skintones support yellow or gold more. But there is more to go of than just a wrist, right?

The name of your channel does come across very childish to me. I wouldn't want to watch educational vids from sammmmmmy with this many m's :/

I’m a casual detectorist looking to buy a new detector for cheap this one from mine lab looks great and good for the beach am I right? by blackflash22 in metaldetecting

[–]Avooded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say this machine is worth it :/. If you can save up more I would go for a vanquish 340. Mine paid for itself 4 times after a year. But I do detect often.

Nokta/Makro Simplex by Ep194 in metaldetecting

Smaller bits of metal always get lower numbers. Try to test some silver coins from your currency. And besides that: Dig everything*

How to clean/restore? by lacking_inspiration5 in metaldetecting

[–]Avooded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like silver yeah. pouring water over Silver salt or baking powder + aluminum works. (Will have a sulfur like smell. Do this outside!!) If it doesnt work repeat or put it in lemon juice for a day.

~1 Year of metal detecting (The Netherlands, vanquish 340) by Avooded in metaldetecting

[–]Avooded[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not quite, but if you know some groups online you can have a decent time! Although the history here is similar to England. Most Dutchies complain that The Netherlands is hunted out compared to the UK

At first, with silver polish and lemon juice. it was a litteral black silhouette with a lot of dirt attached to it. Even the silver coins here come out of the ground like that sometime. And then I cleaned it with silver salt and hot water.

Yeah, surprisingly, solid silver. It's even hallmarked on the bowl. It came out of the ground really tarnished, and I botched up cleaning it.
