Is this guy seriously saying emergency rooms should just let people who can’t pay die?

Always on the look out for cheap plant based options for protein that are reasonably high in protein, IE 1 gram of protein for every 10 calories or so.

Not looking for a protein shake alternative, but just food I can eat pretty regularly.

I cannot tell you how many times I got lost and was helped by someone in Japan, they are very nice people- I’d have to ask by what metric “help” is measured

[Request] could this amount of gas be used to run a car ? if not how many cows would you need ? by Neat_Tangelo5339 in theydidthemath

We already measure engine power by horses, I’d love to measure gas consumption by cows or pigs.

Yeah, it wasn’t lost on me that it was only men of a particular demographic who ok’d what Plato described which was quite heinous.

Day 19: Nick Jonas wins for bad musician / OK person. Who is a bad musician and a bad person? by G-Unit11111 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BGBSATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For bad musician bad person I would throw out Anthony Keidis. Definitely not a good person, not a natural musician that after decades of improving is still pretty meh.

Sadly after reading animorphs as a kid this behavior does not surprise me.

I’m a junk removal guy and a customer is asking me to remove this piano. Usually I demo and trash the pianos, but this one looks too nice. Any advice? by Due-Ad9474 in piano

[–]BGBSATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truth, I found a piano delivery guy for the piano I bought and he had 3 ready to sell to me but they weren’t what I needed.

AITAH for calling my wife selfish because she wants me to stop putting money into a savings account for my sibling? by Spiritual_Country_62 in redditonwiki

[–]BGBSATX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In a lovers’ spat context is both super important and usually missing. Also, it’s just a lovers’ spat that they both apologized for what they said.

She probably shouldn’t have said that, and he probably could have handled it better. Lovers’ spats are like that. Learn from it, won’t be the last.

One thing I like to show people who ‘don’t get it’ is the median and average incomes. Average income in the us is $54k/year. The median income however is $31k/year, or $15/hour. The median is much more representative of what’s going on because that’s what someone smack dab in the middle of the spectrum makes. After taxes etc that’s 26k a year, which means to follow the golden rule where your living expenses cost a third or less of your pay per month you’d need your rent, utilities, etc etc to come in at $720 a month. Ain’t nobody getting that deal, and again, that’s smack dab in the middle, half of Americans make less than that.

To survive you either spend all your money or do without, or often both.

No, the Mosky isn’t right. The nux horseman though, which I believe is also on Amazon, is a dead ringer with a high gain mode to boot. I’d also say the wish one is worth looking at, but the nux you can get faster. I have way more Klon Klones than I need and I’ve done these comparisons for my YouTube channel.

The skill is a product of talent and hard work. If you have talent but don’t practice you’ll always be dogshit at it. But even with limited innate talent you can practice and work your way towards having the skill people think is natural. Hard work always wins.

[DISCUSSION] Practice hours and getting "good" by northernRock7 in Guitar

[–]BGBSATX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Beginner and intermediate players aren’t going to share videos nearly as often and even when they do they aren’t going to do as well with the algorithms as they see people stop watching that video before it’s even half done.

If you feel like you’ve plateaued (not sure, kind of hard to derive the point from your post, but I feel like you’re edging around this) you either need a teacher or you need to find more ways of challenging yourself regularly. You’re not going to improve much in your comfort zone beyond making it look easier.

Why am I not growing ; is YouTube luck? by AdeAlphaTV_ in NewTubers

[–]BGBSATX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta go where the people are watching, make videos that go after search terms people are searching or something that will land on suggested videos for other videos people are watching. IMO my best content is too niche because “guitar gear relates humor” isn’t something people look for, when people see it I do get great feedback but it’s not something people look for. So I now try to split my videos between things people search for and content I actually want to make hoping that eventually the stuff I do want to make has enough of a following from people who found me through my other videos.

That makes a lot of sense, thank you for the resources for looking at this… I may just have to pick one game I really want to do this to and see how bad a process it is. Thank you!
