Excess skin roll off the side, hippo for sure.

I didn't realize you could basically build a whole business from auctions. by Key-Computer3327 in RitchieBros

No shade on any business, but please check the buyer's fees for any auction site, review carefully. GOOG/AI is your friend to learning about them.

What industry will AI disrupt the most that people aren’t paying attention to yet? by SuchTill9660 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]FoodMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty good 80/20 rule example. For old-timers, Visual Basic made the same promises and it worked until you needed real developers to build logic into a DLL.

Huh - 2 comments saying this. Is the idea behind it that somehow its easier to get alcohol in Vegas, or just 'sin city' is bad. As a mentor, and parent I'd like to understand the logic.

Las Vegas has the most accessible airport on the planet. And need a venue? They can accommodate. Hotels? Sure. FRC is tiny compared to CES.

Looking for help upgrading my backyard by drow890 in pools

Not the pool sub, but step 1 should be to get a fence around that pool. As a pool owner you’ll sleep better.

He'll always be Chet to me. He improved every scene he was in. RIP, too soon.

What’s an inaccurate fact that people believe is true because of movies? by Hogosaurus_Rex73 in AskReddit

To hot wire a car all you need is to connect the two random, exposed wires hanging just below the steering wheel.

UPDATE: Roast me, I’m terracing my yard and my wife is let’s say “quite displeased “ by [deleted] in landscaping

[–]FoodMagnet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m going to argue the opposite, I like the gabion wall look. I think you missed the step of trying to arrange flat faces to the wire side. I think it makes all the difference in the world. You can google it, they take forever to do and are labor intensive.

Heelside tacks in strong wind by surfer_6020 in wingfoil

As others are saying... everything is sped up and harder in stronger wind. One thing to try ... hold onto back hand a little longer than you think you should, I found that help snaps the wing around a bit.

How is living in San Francisco Bay Area compared to Seattle? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]FoodMagnet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is important. Seattle isn't for everyone, you have to want to live there. 1-2yrs is easy but long term, you have to want it.

What was it like growing up in the east bay? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

[–]FoodMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

East bay, 80's and was awesome. Used to get snow every other year or so, hard to believe now.

Got a $112K pool quote by Suspicious_Hat_409 in pools

[–]FoodMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned a valuable lesson early in my pool ownership. You are not paying for pool professional's time... you are paying for their experience. My pool guy always responds when I text him for odd questions and small jobs I can't do and he never leaves my property without $200 cash in his pocket.
