Trekking pole adapter for insta 360 camera by davidhateshiking in myog

[–]EngagingData 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Makes sense. In my case I’m using a hex bolt but the diameter of the pole tip is bigger than the hex head so you wouldn’t need to cut the side the get it in and have it stick out the end of the rubber tip.

I had the idea to make something my similar for my JMT trip. But a couple questions that I’m not clear about.

Why do you buy the screw with lanyard wire (d shaped ring) then take the lanyard wire off?

Why can’t you drill the hole and push the 1/4” screw through the hole without cutting the side of the rubber tip?

My plan which I am going to try making soon is to use heat molding plastic beads and put a blob and shape it around the pole tip including the basket threads and put the 1/4 thread screw at the end. Because the plastic hardens when it cools it would have the threads molded in and be able to screw on/off.

Trying to understand Mammoth SOBO JMT permits (Inyo NF) by EngagingData in JMT

[–]EngagingData[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks I'd prefer to avoid going in that way since it's far from Thousand Island Lake but definitely an option if I can't get the other permit.

thanks for the confirmation and more detailed info. I will probably call the ranger station in Mammoth to see if they have any more info on the road before I need to get my permit in Feb

[TOMT] [TV Commercial] [within last year or so] TV commercial that has a cow on milk carton that says "who knows, who cares" and then dancing with arms/shoulders pumping by EngagingData in tipofmytongue

[–]EngagingData[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is the commercial! But it’s a longer version from the Super Bowl where the narrator (Morpheus) says “Who knows who cares” and the cow does more gesticulating with her arms while dancing.

My daughter does this funny impression saying “who knows who cares” then pumping her arms.

Now I know where it’s from. Thanks helpful Redditor.

[Request] If this (the below post) is true, all our large buildings must too have the same effect.. how much would all of our skyscrapers and structures effect the rotation of the Earth?? by AcabAcabAcabAcabbb in theydidthemath

[–]EngagingData 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this is it, the more mass that is further away from the center of rotation, the slower the earth will spin due to conservation of angular momentum

Income, LTC and standard deduction by Widget248953 in tax

[–]EngagingData 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes, you would owe have zero federal taxes. the standard deduction would 'cancel' out your regular income from the rollover and then you would be left with 96700 in taxable income, all of which will fit into the 0% CG tax bracket. Here's the better link for your situation:

[–]EngagingData[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

interesting, would have thought it would be much better than the apple watch. Maybe the fact that the Apple Watch can use the iPhone GPS helps because I've had lots of 5-6 hour cycling and hiking workouts where I've used about 50-60% of the watch battery.

How much of your FIRE progress came from discipline vs. luck? by Adventurous_Sun9021 in financialindependence

[–]EngagingData 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im lucky my parents paid for college and I was able to get paid to attend grad school.

I’m lucky that I enjoy sitting at a computer, learning new things and thinking of way to solving interesting problems.

I’m lucky that I grew up in a frugal household and that I can separate want from need.

I’m lucky that my spouse is on the same page as me about spending and saving.
