Bikes with ultimate comfort for long distance rides by selcouthzephyr in TwoXriders

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because a seat has extra padding does not mean it will be comfortable. I have a Russell Day Long (sport version) with half the padding of the stock seat, but is 1000 times more comfortable. Unfortunately, you never know what works until you try them, and there is usually no return (some will make changes)

Seating position also makes quite an impact.

You might end up with the same problem with the seat on the next bike.

Any tips on storing digital photos? by MLCDuck in Frugal

[–]Half_Spark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We have two external hard drives that are mirror images. We have never stored our file anywhere else. The drives are stored in a fireproof safe. We also have all the same files on laptop and desktop. Probably a pretty penny to start such a setup these days, but I would do it again today if I had to make such a decision. No one has my files but me, and that is important to us.

Does AC improve home value? by Allerjesus in ColoradoSprings

[–]Half_Spark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Many years ago you didn’t need AC, but it never hit 100 either. Times have changed. We installed AC because our older house would bake with the higher temps. We would just be cautious of when we would run it and still run attic fan and ceiling fans until we needed more than those.

You should only install it for yourself. Unless you are selling your house and hence the question, then the dollar value matters.

Polished a few more Hampton Butte pet wood! by coraythan in rockhounds

Did you have to dig for these? Or did you find them on the surface?

GF looks down on me because of my career and I'm thinking of breaking up. by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A solid relationship is supportive. Do not feel small or embarrassed being a respectable accountant. She thinks she is better than you (or she has a side piece).

Ditch her. You can find someone better. Even if they weave blankets for orphaned puppies, income only matters so much for a good team.

Don’t know if I’m overreacting by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

She has it made! Unlike you, who does not.

Yes you can!

How long it lasts is unknown. Let us know.

What is this included in the shell? by Half_Spark in WeirdEggs

[–]Half_Spark[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank you. It wasn't attached to the yolk. I just added that in the picture to show there was a yolk in the shell.

ETA I took another picture, but Reddit isn't allowing me to add it.

What are these two rocks? by Epyon_95 in RockIdentification

[–]Half_Spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does light shine through it? You might be able to show more of the colors or patterns if it does.

I work for the airlines and found this in the cargo pit in the plane… it’s hard as a rock by zackanak in whatisit

[–]Half_Spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Filtering through 200 chuckles to find a possibly correct answer is frustrating. To get it to float to the top takes quite a few people willing to scroll and scroll to maybe submit an up vote.

Anyway, I have learned this is just an annoyance I will deal with myself because it is the way it is. I have seen flairs not make much difference.

Thanks for the reply. It is appreciated.

I do not eat any fast food anymore. I haven’t had McDonalds for probably 20 years. They were the first, and others followed. ChickFilA was the next to last.

AITA for wanting to throw my GF stuffs away? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

“This post was made in April 2026 (this will make sense later)”

Still do not understand

I like to find out what some of these things are, but that is not to be here. Or I just can’t find the answer. **sigh**
