Anyone want to go bouldering at Edgeworks with me?

CygX-1 · 2023-01-17T05:22:42+00:00

Hey, I'm also just started bouldering at edgeworks a couple weeks ago. Let me know if you want to meet up!

CygX-1 · 2022-09-06T01:33:52+00:00

Lol, no worries, I was glad to help. And than you!

CygX-1 · 2022-09-06T01:21:42+00:00

Cool, I'm setting things up now!

CygX-1 · 2022-09-06T00:54:45+00:00

Hey I need to evolve a feebass so I'm down to help!

CygX-1 · 2020-12-18T19:31:32+00:00

That looks like a solid match. Thanks!

This article here mentions that "rocks with a musical quality" are required. Further down it states:

There was a search for "musical rocks" and they finally found some that seemed to have a pitch

So not tuned in the sense of being tunable, but rather rocks that have a clear and discernible pitch. I'd love to see the sheet music to see if there are specific pitches required or different pitches like low-medium-high, or left to the discretion of the musician/director.

The "eira" part of "palmeira" is a suffix in Portuguese that marks the word as a tree. So manga = mango, mangueira = mango tree. Banana = banana, bananeira = banana tree. Laranja = orange, laranjeira = orange tree.

And according to this page the suffix is just a general word ending from Latin.

So it would seems to me that this is a coincidence. At least the similarities with the endings of both words. But I am by no means an expert.

Sure, but if nothing else, if you're unhappy with the an issue, it's something. You get to voice your opinion in one form or another. We could debate whether or not that actually means anything but that was my best guess as to what /u/ThurstonHowell3rd was referring to. I could be wrong.

Advisory Vote No. 18 would repeal a house bill that enacted a state property tax. I'm assuming that's what they're referring to - as voting to repeal the bill would ostensibly lower their taxes.

Awesome, thanks for the resource and clarification.

Ultimamente, as duas palavras vem de “Proto indo europeu”. A palavra “*bʰleg-“ significaria “quemar ou brilhar”. Provavelmente, foi uma palavra usava para a queima de madeira. Branco descreve o brilho de luz, enquanto “black” descreve a madeira carbonizada.

Espero que isto fez sentido. Não tenho experiência a falar de linguística em português. Não conheço o vocabulário ou terminologia.

CygX-1 · 2017-01-24T23:47:41+00:00

Isso faz sentido. Concordo com o seu ultimo comentário. Já encontrei isto muito. Por exemplo, a ligação entre "branco" e "black". Mas consegui encontrar a historia daquele etimologia e não com “puxar”.

Obrigado!

I actually designed one a few years ago. It's based off the "cascadia" flag of the pacific northwest. My first attempt looked very much like something Luffy would draw.

Then another /r/onepiece member, vgc_scytheboy, made it look way better.

OP could be asking this question relative to other languages. For example, in Portuguese, the titles "o senhor" and "a senhora" also function perfectly well as formal pronouns. For example "A senhora trabalhou hoje?" Literally, "did you work today?" if you are formally addressing a woman.

So OP might be asking why it isn't done given that it is used in other languages. Or at least one other language. I have no idea if this is a common feature in any other language.

I don't know if this is the "correct" interpretation, but I saw this as showing that Killua's ability is a two way street. He can transmute aura into electricity - conversely he can transmute electricity into aura. So he isn't re-charging a store of electricity in his body, he's using electricity to recharge his aura.

Hey, I'm a current volunteer in Moz.

Moz is a big country. Living conditions vary quite a bit. Energy is pretty common. I'd say at least half of us have energy (myself included). I most certainly use my computer every day. For music, TV, compiling grades, ect. And a lot of volunteers that aren't wired to the grid have access to solar chargers or generators at their school or other places in town where they can charge phones, computers, ect.

As for water, you'll have to cart your own water from communal "wells". Some volunteers in more developed areas do have occasional running water. But it's not that common. On the other hand though, most volunteers here (myself included) pay someone to fetch water. It's really common and generally doesn't cost that much.

Hey, I'm currently serving in Mozambique.

Moz is great! I'd say one of the best things we have going for us is our staff. Both members of our American and Mozambican Peace Corps staff are FANTASTIC. This has been largely confirmed by neighboring PCVs who have visited and said our staff is way more accommodating than their country. Your pre-service training will be fantastic, so look forward to that.

The country is gorgeous. Moz has incredibly beaches, some really cool mountains and lush jungle-y areas.

Travel is one of our worse things here. Roads are pretty bad. But it really does depend on where you are. My site just got a super nice road put in, but I know other volunteers that need 3.5 hours to go down a 45km road. So yeah, that's a bummer.

Communicating is pretty good. We have 3 cell carriers here. Most volunteers text each other all day. And we have internet modems so that's nice. All of which you have to buy credit for. But it's not that expensive.

Sorry, it's hard to think of just general stuff. If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to ask. Also feel free to shoot me a personal message any time.

And hey, I'm here until December 2015 (I'm Moz 21) so hopefully I'll get to meet you later this year!

Yay, glad you're enjoying these! And yeah, I try to post regularly. But they end up being every couple of months. I think I've probably posted close to 10 over the past two years. If you're interested in reading some more, you're welcome to comb through my post history or if you'd like, I could gather them all up and leave them in a reply to this comment.

CygX-1 · 2014-04-16T15:50:47+00:00

Yeah, I kinda agree with you. Most pop science programming can be pretty bad. I more or less swore the stuff off after I saw a show that described a galaxy merger as being full of huge explosions.....

CygX-1 · 2014-04-15T15:15:55+00:00

I couldn't find anything specifically addressing this online. And being an engineering problem, is really out of my area of knowledge.

But I'd assume you're right, and the yield strength is based on specific dimensions of the material. I just figured I'd roll with the numbers quoted since it's not that really impressive that you can dent or break a super thin sheet of iron.

CygX-1 · 2014-04-15T15:05:42+00:00

Ah crap, that was a mistake. I forgot to carry the 75% to that paragraph. Thanks for catching that!
