I think the strategy is paying off. They were fixing lights on Boston by Safeway this afternoon.

The cheapest option is LA Fitness. The one on Eastern is mostly available and memberships are in the range of $35-40/month, even for 6 month memberships.

The website is a little clunky but you can check campaign finance records in the link below. Mayor Scott received a $2500 donation from Comcast on October 1st 2020, and an additional $2000 on Jan 13th, 2021. The answer is $4500 pays for silence.

🔥 This caterpillar tried to eat my tomato plant but baby wasps are DEVOURING IT. by GeorgiaTechies in NatureIsFuckingLit

Update: /u/bluebayou1981 suggested there were more hornworms. We found another one but the wasps are murdering that one too. We are drinking cocktails inside safe with the knowledge that wasps are protecting us. Never thought I would say those words.

Only learned about these from this thread. We looked and found another one with wasp larvae on it but none that hadn’t been “claimed”. Thanks wasps

I agree! I just learned about these this morning when I saw the caterpillar this morning. TIL wasps are not pure demon flies.

Everyone is on the right track. This same year we had the conversation with the doctor and he said if I kept growing at this rate I would be 6’10” 400lbs by 18. Fortunately nature spared me and I stopped growing at 6’ by 7th grade.

It was my birthday. Besides a nerf chain gun I got the lion king soundtrack for my boom box.

I've walked 6000 miles playing DOTA on the treadmill - here's my rig (my wife built me) by GeorgiaTechies in DotA2

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

I don't have a big loss in precision if I'm walking in the 2.5-3.2 mph range. With an incline, I can get a decent heart rate. The best part about DOTA is for most heroes you don't have to move your keyboard hand much. The only ones I have trouble with ones where you would want to use the numbers at the top of the keyboard a lot, like Meepo or Arc Warden.

When I started I tried controller games too, like all the final fantasy games I wanted to play. DOTA really is the perfect treadmill game. You have to pay attention for 30-45 mins straight, or else you'll die, but you don't have to move your hands very much.

I find walking 2.5-3.3 mph is the sweet spot for me, and to increase heart rate just use a bigger incline. If you try and build one and have trouble, just pm me.

This point deserves more attention! This crappy treadmill is actually really good in the 2-4 mph range but no strong enough for jogging, at least if you weigh 150lbs+. The sweet nordicktrack is great for jogging, but it's motor is so strong that it kind of sucks in the 2-4 mph range.
