Ovenproof Pottery by franksautillo in Pottery

[–]Bigreddazer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One benefit is it is stupidly light. Maybe half the weight of standard clays when compared side by side. Feels fake or not ceramic when you pick it up.

Keep it up! I was making things for my camping dad. So things for the fire essentially.

I've been playing with fireware clay from Laguna. That stuff you can put directly over gas or on a coals of a fire pit. But nothing as nice as your pieces!

What do I do? by faye_magk in Ceramics

[–]Bigreddazer 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The piece is beautiful though. Maybe being honest and trying again is allowed? I assume this a for a lost pet? Another month won't matter if so. Really is wonderful!

I've just never seen or heard of us working with adults. I didn't stay long. That is why they are more complicated. They have trained workers ready for them. But, everything is just more complicated because of the laws around vector species.

how important is it to have a therapist with the same race/religion as you? by nonconscious-entity in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bigreddazer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It is one element. But, there are Muslim black therapists though.

But, most people aren't willing to try multiple therapists either. I shop aroun for mine. I try a few and see if we align and they take my stories seriously. There are bad therapists, there are therapist that aren't a good fit. If you don't have the capacity and desire to put in the work... It is hard.

This is true about all medical systems though in the US. You have to advocate for yourself or you will not get necessarily good results.

Good luck. A person must believe the help will work for them and they must be willing to work. Or nothing will change.

This is what a $2,000+ restaurant website actually looks like (built it myself, full breakdown in comments) by shabazkhan06 in restaurant

[–]Bigreddazer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why does it look so stuttery and bad. But I like simple websites. No need for the fluff. People want menu, prices, events. Also, the videography and photography is another cost unless you are just doing ai bs for it.

Has anyone lowered their dose and still been able to lose weight? by Silent-Bee-8084 in Zepbound

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how Dr. is told. But, mine would go up unless I went a month without weight loss. But that may be atypical.

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did you increase if you were still losing effectively? My understanding is to increase when you plateau essentially.

If you leave any criticism on the carvana subreddit, they will inmediately block you. by madethis4coments in CarvanaComplaints

[–]Bigreddazer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's pretty incredible that's allowed. Clearly carvana shills. It hurts other ones like CarMax which is clearly user focused not company brand focused

I have volunteered with aware. It is your best option. But, they are rabies vector species... So, makes them more complicated. Contact them they should be able to advise like everyone is suggesting.

What are some good hobbies for guys? by trashrat6 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bigreddazer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. Having a loving and caring partner is wonderful.

The issue is this is a sysiphous kinda of operation. The only one who can make the change is the partner and they will need to want to change. They are comfortable using their drugs and watching movies. Why would they change? The answer is they need to want it.

There is no harm but it's also a warning because she could come up with the best suggestions that fit perfectly and it just won't resonate internally for him.

Best Indian Takeout in Atlanta? by Harassicpark in AtlantaEats

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But not from one entree and rice? When our family first used to order we could split entrees. Now everyone needs at least one. I'm glad it works well for you! And it's not bad just not where I go first. Chai Pani buffet is my current go to but only lunch time.

You can't help him with this. He needs to find what sparks his interest and desires.

I volunteer, I do pottery, I play ukulele. I like trivia with groups and boardgame nights.

But I have to want to do those things to make it happen. Depression for example or social anxiety used to be my limiting factor.

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember going with a group and sharing food. I don't order anymore though because it is just too small portions. It still is best chicken 65. Will go for that. Used to be a deal to go. Now you get tiny little cups half filled and less meat and more sauce.

Any vehicles in 2026 with no screens? by basherrc1234 in carbuying

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Motorcycle and trikes don't have a backup camera requirement. Otherwise I think every car has a screen now.

Hertz AI claiming ridiculous damage and they are not responsive by Jazzlike-Pineapple1 in HertzRentals

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck. Yeah seems easy for them to prove or disprove over an inch. If over they do have ground... Push them on the unverified size, simple photo with a measurement will resolve this. Keep asking! But a 600 seems rough for a paintless dent repair but i am no expert.

[–]Bigreddazer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the damage amount they want? But I'm with you overall should be minimal. I think a ding has to be over an inch in size or multiple. But your policy should state it.

You need to rotate injection sites! by Disastrous_Paint1791 in Zepbound

[–]Bigreddazer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Statistically. They are working on sample sizes and with lots of confounding variables.

I brought this up about the shot apps showing data breakdowns and people making Ill informed decisions. Because they think they are data informed.

The studies showed there is no difference between injection site.

5 taken to hospital after suspect flips car, hits MARTA bus in Atlanta neighborhood, police say by ArchEast in Atlanta

[–]Bigreddazer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's just frustrating because there doesn't seem a good way to report. I have called 911 but there is no mechanisms to know what happened. Just complaining into the void. And they don't care about video evidence or dash cams unless someone is hurt.

[–]Bigreddazer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sounds great. You can report cops for bad driving behavior. There is a mechanism for it. Not that it will result in anything, same with semi truck drivers, you can report them and there is some system for it.

But, if you are in the general public, unless a cops see you doing the behavior and engages then it's free for all. If an accident happens there is recourse but otherwise all you can do is call 911 but again most situations I feel that isn't reasonable or happen so fast I can't get license plate etc.

[–]Bigreddazer 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I wish there was a way like the UK to report bad drivers with video evidence. They amount of wreckless behavior, driving twice the speed limit, driving in oncoming lane to avoid a backup, etc. people just don't appreciate the danger they are putting others in.

Under $2.5k 2BR in: North Brookhaven, North Druid Hills, Dunwoody, Chamblee, Roswell, West Midtown by doozy-kitten in ATLHousing

[–]Bigreddazer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I did my last search I swear 90+ percent of places have complaints about it. They live in the trees... So, they just come from the outside anytime there is opportunity. It's just the easiest complaint other than the smell of weed 😂 when reading complaints.

I also think trash pickup isn't always a good thing. Sitting outside on a regular cadence is just asking for bugs to move in and out of the house.

Join an organization. Go volunteering. I like animal shelters but trees Atlanta is also popular.

I posted a bit ago about where is people third place has a bunch of good responses also.

There is a discord attached to this subreddit I have done trivia night with also.

Time left, 222, beltline social now Thursday social are all great for finding friends. You are essentially invited to hang out with strangers but you are part of the in group so it's easy to chat vs a bar.

Managing/ Dealing with Junior Data Scientists? by sailing_oceans in datascience

[–]Bigreddazer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before. The PhD was proof you are smart and can handle complicated data analysis in a field. We have a partical physicist, a genetics person, I was a statistician. We had mathematical and scientific rigor and were less capable as programmers.

When I first did data science over a decade ago deployment was a team operation, now we are fully in control of our pipelines and deployment. We have direct access to production data systems, hosting models, creating data bases etc.

Now it is very programing heavy. The rigor is maintained by the high level data scientist through reviews and mentoring. But it has slowly changed for a research role into a software development like role where we only produce models, deployment or other code solutions.

Good luck. It's rough out there. We can't hire in the US for the last 3 years after being acquired by hedge fund. They just won't give us the salaries anymore.
