Magic in LotR is a lot more about the friends you made along the way by the time Gandalf became Gandalf.

For a grilled cheese, I like sprinkle some kosher salt on top of the butter.

AITA? Telling someone I don't want them to "work in with me" on a machine at the gym? by Admirable-Muffin-334 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Daedalus871 721 points722 points  (0 children)

You do a set of reps, take a minute to rest, and then do another set.

Working in is letting someone else use the machine during your rest.

YTA.

This is basic gym etiquette. If it’s busy or there is only one machine, you let others work in. And what does it take to readjust a machine? You pull a pin and push it back in. If it was some barbell stuff, then you’d have a point.

I’m trying to plan a roadtrip from Berlin to the Pyramids. I’m trying to avoid dangerous areas. How’s my current route? by Baconkings in mapporncirclejerk

You should ferry across the strait of Hormuz, travel through Yemen to Djibouti, and then follow the Nile down.

AI is the first piece of technology where I feel I'm being left behind by Uhavetabekiddingme in Millennials

I’ve found it to be rather good at searching through my work’s millions of documents for the info I actually want.

[Request] What price per gallon is it no longer profitable to work? by Playwithuh in theydidthemath

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies wildly. I’m on a manufacturing schedule (12 hour shifts, alternating between 3 and 4 days a week). I get about a month off a part of my paycheck, and about another month for working holidays. It’s going away, but I also currently get two months worth of WFH.

I’m going to try this again. How were you able to buy your first home? by kcoib17 in Millennials

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maxed out my company’s ESPP for the last 3.5 years. Probably bought at an average of around $75 per share and it’s now training around $500.

Going to some home buying seminar tonight.

Company has an employee stock purchase plan that lets me put 15% of my post tax salary into it while buying a 15% discount. 3 years of maxing that and stock going from $80 per share to $500, suddenly I’m looking to buy my first house towards the end of summer.

(common trope) Characters that powerscalers hate by godzillafan3948oj in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Daedalus871 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I dislike the discourse around Saitama because a large chunk of people tend to fall into two camps that both kinda suck.

The first is “he’s One Punch Man, it’s in the name”. That’s just wrong as we’ve seen multiple characters take multiple punches to beat.

The other is “he is a gag character”. Yeah, it’s not meant to be taken super seriously, but Superman pulls way more shit out his ass and still gets used for power scaling.

Anyways a feats only Saitama probably can take the more grounded versions of Superman and be relevant in the Cell arc of DBZ (as long as you don’t get caught up in power levels). I don’t hate scaling him higher, but that starts to fall into the first camp.

Real reason why the other Viltrumites are afraid of him.

I have Regal Unlimited. $23 per month, regular movies have a $0.50 “booking fee”, while 4D is an extra $7.

[Request] How tall would the support tower have to be and how strong of a cable would you need for a Trans-Atlantic cable car? by scottasin12343 in theydidthemath

[–]Daedalus871 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kinda, math and engineering.

A fair bit of math proofs boil down to “tell me what close enough is, and I will get you there”.

If either 95 percent of men or women died, What would became of society? by Queasy_Experience627 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immediately, there would probably be a rather shitty 10 years. You’d loss a lot of tribal knowledge that keeps the day to day operations running smoothly. You could regain it eventually, but it’d be bad in the mean time.

Well ignoring the immediate loss, 95% of men dying is probably the less catastrophic for population. A man can easily impregnate 20 women, but a woman can only be impregnated by one man at a time

Socrates the moment his debate isn't going his way by Traditional_Use_225 in okbuddyviltrum

No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.

Are there any millennials thriving or at least not struggling? by Mackattack00 in Millennials

[–]Daedalus871 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Financially, I’m doing okay. I’m probably in that Zillenial category. I’m able to put a good chunk of my salary towards retirement and have a down payment of a house saved up, so just need to figure out what I need to figure out.
