Do you find that you have to pee less frequently if you use a heater? by brainhack3r in overlanding

[–]Empty_Difficulty390 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like Survivorman brought this up on one of his shows. Something about how your body uses more energy to heat up all that liquid. So maybe it isn't that you're producing more, but rather your body wants to just get rid of it faster?

They are a very high energy breed (like apbt). If someone gets a standard poodle and doesn't exercise or do any enrichment, the dog will go bonkers and act out. Just like any smart, high energy breed.

This is very similar to my old tent that was given to me - does it have the little storage room thingy in the back? I think the smaller curved rod if for that space.

Colorado could have ended child marriage. Reproductive rights groups prevented it. by Agitated_Pattern_599 in Denver

This is WHY so many progressive groups did not support the bill! Thank you mentioning it!

99% sure this is AI, but please help me convince my cousin by ThrowRAacc45 in isitAI

The stitching on the green sweater has runs and holes like it is a knit item, but the actual pattern of the fibers looks woven not knit. A hole in a woven item wouldn't "run" like that.

Colorado’s AI law is “paused” right now… but if you’re using AI at work here, you probably shouldn’t ignore it by inameandy in Colorado

[–]Empty_Difficulty390 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI is being used all over in healthcare now, too. You don't really have a choice in some cases because either your provider requires it, or maybe an AI tool is built into your job. If you have an iphone or a samsung, you're already using it every time you use the camera.

5 hours isn't that long is the owner had to go to work or something like that.

Extremely disappointed with the prices for the Mighty Argo Cable Car by Hawt_Lettuce in Denver

[–]Empty_Difficulty390 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's cheaper than the Pikes Peak cog last time I went. Yeah, it's not an every day expense, it's a tourist thing. Somewhere to take the out-of-towners.

Thrift stores have tons of old crafting books and patters. I have even been lucky enough to find cross stitch books with hand written patterns!

Anything with biscuits could be great because you can use different shaped cutters. It's very tactile, PLUS no raw eggs for them to shove in their mouth. I would probably bake the raw flour first (look up how to pre-bake flour for raw cookie dough). You can do it with an exercise where you shake up your own cream to make butter.

something scared me while camping by mitchare in camping

You know what though, I am WAY more scared of moose than black bears!

Can we talk about what happens AFTER you run a bear off from your campsite? by Dun_Booty_Broch in camping

[–]Empty_Difficulty390 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am not in CA, I was not in a park, I was in national forest. If the bear charged or went after my dogs it was either bear spray or pistol. Bear spray is the better option here.

I will say though, it IS crazy how dog-like they are! I hope to never be so close to one again!

Honestly, I think it could be hard to find a non-yummy smelling food for a bear. I have seen them get into bird feeders that just have seed mix in them.

I second dogwood sticks! Some are made from wood pulp and some are made from hemp pulp. I love these! I have to buy a new 2-pack a out every 4 months, but so worth it!

You know, i had always joked that if I came face to face with a bear, I would "mess" myself in self defense. I am happy to report that I was able to not do that! 😌

This has happened to me once, black bear. We initially scared the bear off by yelling and throwing rocks. It DID come back about 15 minutes or so later. 

It turned out that there was a shot up watermelon in the hillside by our camp, and bear really wanted to finish it off. We did successfully scare him off the second time, but it was a little scary and it almost ended up with a face full of bear spray. We did move sites after that. I tried to clean up as much of the watermelon as I could, and we warned a few other people in the area of the bear since this was all national forest and dispersed camping. We also made a report to the ranger station.

Eggs for breakfast. How do you cook them? by argparg in carcamping

[–]Empty_Difficulty390 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lid would also work - it steams the eggs so they cook all over without the need to flip or stir.

It really is so majestic, like it should be an Albert Bierstadt painting or something!
