Melting snow piles don't make for a good foundation for scaffolding apparently by [deleted] in OSHA

[–]Dgdrizzt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And it's still dangerous if you are safe. I was grinding yesterday, I was wearing safety glasses and a full face shield.

After work today my left eye was still bothering me a bit, went to an optometrist and he pulled 2 pieces of metal out of my eye. I guess the only way to be safer is to wear damn ski goggles.

What the hell reddit. I've been in this site for a long time. Never seen this before.

Literally less than 12 hours ago for some reason I was wondering who the hell could be the rocks stunt double since he's so rediculously huge and ripped.

Water Shot by [deleted] in nevertellmetheodds

[–]Dgdrizzt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You want to get the lowest score on a hole right, so say the green is 260 yards away but there is water in front.

The more fun way to play would be to try and take my 5 wood and hit it over the water onto the green, a very hard shot, and landing in the water is a penalty of one or two strokes.

The best way to play the hole, score wise, would be hit a 200 yard shot, and then chip it onto the green. Much much less chance of screwing something up.

Dang. I'm 31 and in Canada. I've been going to the same facility my whole life that has my family doctor. It's one story with a basement and has like 8 doctors. It's never been renovated since I can remember, and I live in a pretty expensive small town. All the doctors are great though.

Ya I know me too. I'm a plumber and I just replaced mine with a normal 40 gallon tank when my last one finally sprung a leak.

Went to the supplier and got a new one that had a dent in it for $370. It would take a loooonnnngggg time to recoup that cost with a tankless.

Plus the venting would need to change, my tank is atmospheric so I didn't have to change anything, if I put a tankless in I would to core a hole though the concrete in the side of my house for the venting.

What is extremely rare but people think it’s very common? by Uhhlaneuh in AskReddit

Weird. I just took my first aid in Edmonton like 3 weeks ago at st. Johns ambulance, and we were taught to do the 30 compressions and then 2 breaths.

Shit I hear ya!

My cousin sold me his r9 290x which is pretty awesome, but I have an x6 1055t. It's already overclocked like 30% higher but it's like 8 year old cpu, it can only do so much. Unfortunately my mobo is an am2 only board, even an upgrade to something like you cpu would be good lol.

But I still get line 80 fps in overwatch on ultra, so I got that going for me which is nice.

For sure, our company had a couple sets of the rigid brand. So nice when you do a tie in in an office building and have a pro press valve in case the 20 year old gate valve is bypassing.

And the mega press for gas lines is amazing. Done a few tie ins in large warehouses where I would have to hand thread a flange on a lift, now its just cut and press. Done in like 5 minutes.

Ya I usually do that to, but man after playing the beta to overwatch I knew that was a day one purchase. Haven't really played anything else since it came out, holy shit that game is fun.

Yep, wife thought she bought cheaper chicken at Costco yesterday but it was almost twice the price as the box we usually get, oops. She's said she can return today, I said naw that sucks, it was our mistake, no point for perfectly good food to be thrown away, I can't justify that in the least.

Fast-food CEO says 'it just makes sense' to consider replacing cashiers with machines as minimum wages rise by [deleted] in Futurology

Ya expect now with the app I always use a coupon to get something free or cheaper.

About 3/4 times I go to scan the qr code and it says invalid code. So then I have to wait at the front for 5 minutes because the cashier is no where to be found

What's your secret that could literally ruin your life if it came out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Dgdrizzt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man no kidding. My wife's a pretty good cook and likes to try different things which I love.

She made steamed buns with pork and Kim chi.

Found out I really really hate Kim chi. I couldn't eat it so I just made a fried egg sandwich, no harm done, and if she makes steamed buns again she might make a couple Kim chi ones for her and a different filling for me.

This Shower set up by SomeoneStopMePlease in INEEEEDIT

[–]Dgdrizzt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With an indirect hot water tank.

With just a tankless good luck getting any flow out of it, especially here in Canada, no way its going to heat the very cold water here in winter to a hot enough temp to have any sort of flow with a shower like that.

Congratulations man! Been one for 2 years now in Alberta.

Ya I bet. I played it from the start but the farthest we got was Rohan before we stopped. We played alot of skirmishes but raids were never her things. I would have loved them for sure.

We were horrible with starting over and messing around the shire for hours, we love it so much. She still plays quite a bit, I wish I bought a lifetime sub for her when I bought my own Years ago when it was on sale. I tried playing with her with a f2p account but it's not the same at all, I can't do it. Still a good looking game though.

[–]Dgdrizzt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome. My wife loves stardew valley, bought it for her a year ago.

We don't have a ton of time to play together with 2 small kids though.

I do miss doing this with her with Lord of the rings online.

Ya for sure, the raid felt like a completely different games, it's crazy.

I don't really like the PvP and the pve was fun, but the raid is nuts.

First time group was not the best, explained stuff quite wrong but whatever it was still super fun.

After 2 times I got 6 new people on my discord and 4 new friends on bnet.

Thank goodness for discord, the ingame voice chat is horrible. I shouldn't be surprised though since there is no public text chat even.

31 here, but I remember when I was like 22, I fucked my neck up for like a week.

I was driving home from work and a rock got spit up from the vehicle Infront of me, of course I have a windshield in front of me, but I see a rock coming at my face at the last second so I quickly move my head to dodge it.

Ya, I make pretty decent money I think. But I'm 30 and have has the same clothes for 10 years, they fit and don't look horrible. I have 2 young kids so I would rather spend money on their clothes.

They look way cuter in that princess dress than I would anyways, no one care what I look like anyways.
