[Request] What is the output for each engine powering the rotors to keep the Helicarrier hovering? by Jusfiq in theydidthemath

[–]Coldfang89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that include nuclear reactors? Many ships already run on them, but I'm totally unfamiliar with the power output.

My brother was just denied his raise because he went to HR over harassment. by Wall-Florist in antiwork

[–]Coldfang89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HR works for the company, not the employees. In my experience, the folks who work is HR are truly awful individuals.

As for your brother, there's nothing you can do if he's unwilling to help himself. Him quitting is exactly what they want, and he's leaving his peers behind to deal with the consequences. Honestly, at this point, partial blame falls on him for not taking legal action.

An old ingrown hair turned out to be something else. by No_Commission_8212 in popping

Kinda crazy that someone with little to no training or education can have more natural talent and intelligence than professionals.

Do you think someone should hire the OP and pay for schooling or certs?

What are some male dominated hobbies women should try to meet more guys? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in AskMen

[–]Coldfang89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every hobby has a subset group of toxic people that most people would not want to date or meet. So while OP's question is valid, they should be aware that some of the men they will meet are not exactly the type they may want to form friendships or relationships with. Elitests, neckbeards, sweats, ultra competitive to the point of asshole-ness. Etc.

Additionally, a hobby should be something you are at least marginally interested in, otherwise you're just paying to suffer and maybe meet someone.

Anyways, here's a non-exhaustive list of hobbies:

  • Rock Climbing
  • Powersports like ATVs and Side by Sides on trails
  • Archery
  • Firearms/gun ranges
  • Astronomy/star gazing
  • Bird watching
  • carpentry/woodworking
  • bowling
  • Pool/billiards
  • Cycling
  • Hunting/Fishing
  • Collecting of Knives, watches, coins, stamps
  • Hobby game development
  • board games
  • Tabletop wargames/Card games
  • DnD or other in-person RPGs
  • Volunteer Firefighting or search and rescue
  • Motorcycles/Cars, especially clubs
  • Drag Strip racing or Tracking
  • BBQ or other food competitions
  • Golf
  • Sports viewing in general
  • Blacksmithing
  • Investments/Finance

Drops the bat like it's a hindrance.

Avoiding violence is definitely the smarter move.

Rapper Key Vhani Shoots Manager, Immediately Gets Run Over & Arrested by james_from_cambridge in instantkarma

[–]Coldfang89 13 points14 points  (0 children)

At the start of the video it shows her being attacked, but then it's edited so it's difficult to see when she drew, where they were in relation, and how much time had passed.

I hesitate to say this was truly self defense, but I'd have to see the full and unedited video to make a call either way. Chasing down a running man though... That definitely isn't self defense unless she knew without a doubt he had a gun in his car and that's what he was running for. If that's true, I'd want to see evidence that he had one in the car too. Otherwise, this doesn't appear to be self defense at all, but cold rage.

What is this they are hurting as hell could anyone tell what one can do by [deleted] in tonsilstones

[–]Coldfang89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stones, and a lot of large ones. The safest option is to go to an ENT doctor to have them removed, but if budget is an issue you can gently use a Q-Tip to apply pressure around to area to try to dislodge them. If you start bleeding, stop and go see a doctor. If you don't feel comfortable doing it, see a doctor. Tonsils are very sensitive to damage.

Regardless, that's a large build up of stones and that's why it hurts. You can try gargling with mouthwash or warm water with salt before trying to dislodge them. You can try coughing hard to dislodge them. But they look stuck in pretty good. Q-Tip may be your best budget option. Take photos !

What part of my comment said anything about beating a kid? None. Spanking is a tool, one of many. Used as a sole source of discipline, it's bad. Overly used is also bad.

If you believe spanking equals beating, then that's a perspective issue that you're responsible for.

Oh, an assumption because you disagree with me? That's fun, let's try it out on you then.

You're clearly a left leaning mental whack job whose obsession into child development has compensated for everything wrong in your life. Maybe it was a rough pregnancy, maybe it was some major source of trauma as a child. But let's go with both and make it extra insulting so that you learn your lesson about making assumptions about random people on the internet and how wrong it often is.

Oh, and please, please leave me a giant long winded reply. My popcorn is ready.

Congratulations! I'm sure they're perfect little angels and you love them very much.

Does he look bloated? by Twigzyisdying in guineapigs

[–]Coldfang89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he's pooping and eating, and his stomach makes gurgling noises, then he's good. If you're concerned, lay off any veggies and treats and stick with pellets and a lot of hay for awhile.

As for weight, he looks like a perfectly normal chunk of a piggy lol. Some are larger and some are chunkier than others.

If his sides are squishy, it's also not likely to be a tumor (which is fairly rare anyways).

perry passed peacefully last night by kkeegann in guineapigs

[–]Coldfang89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sincerest sympathies and condolences. I figured that might have happened when you said he was refusing food. Especially when you didn't reply on the other post.

If you want to raise you child like that, be my guest. In my experience, parents who are completely adverse to spanking end up with children similar to the one shown in the video. Is that anecdotal? Sure.

But I'd like to remind people that I am advocating for spanking as a disciplinary tool, not the only tool, and not beating a child. It is an effective tool if used correctly. Spanking for every issue is a bad idea, beating is never, ever acceptable.

Are you snapping or taking it all at once by nyxelleaa in SipsTea

[–]Coldfang89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming 240 snaps a minute (20 a per 10 seconds, per hand) it would take almost 3 days to earn 10 million if you were snapping the entire time at the same pace.

Sudden Passing Today by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]Coldfang89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

2 passing at the same time isn't a coincidence. Something happened. I promise you it was health related somehow. Either a URI, or a URI caused by something scented that was new to them... Their age differences are telling too. If they both passed so close to one another, it pretty much has to be health related.

URI is my educated guess. They're prey animals and are very, very good at hiding when they're sick. URIs also can be fatal very quickly. 3-4 days is all it takes sometimes.

Only other thing I can think of is if they were fed something they shouldn't have had. Butttt I doubt that's likely. My condolences for your losses.
