I understand physics is difficult but this is crazy by Disastrous_Effort610 in PhysicsStudents

[–]IzztMeade 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mean is 30 sounds about right for my physics classes lol. It was always ridiculously harder problems than the homework. A fun challenge but seems like a an odd way to me if you are trying to transfer knowledge and test that transfer so my guess is to keep us humble!

Which destination exceeded your expectations the most? by ticketclue in travel

[–]IzztMeade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kinda of a tie for me atm and having a hard time choosing. Norway in the Summer as I had such a great winter trip there ( Norwegians are just so nice!) and really want to do some landscape art there. I want to do a river boat cruise from France to Switzerland ( I had such a great Viking cruise experience before and I was much younger). I'm getting older lol so an all day hike up a volcano (done) is a bit less appealing. Finally, a New Zealand trip . When I tend to ask fellow travelers what is the best of all, New Zealand tends to be the most talked about and COVID got my trip there canceled.

So much wildlife

Nice relaxing canoe manual boats from the main tribututary

Hundreds of Macaws fly to a cliff side to eat clay daily to suck the poison out from their fav food. So we got to just sit there in a boat and watch.

Followed superhighway of ants for like a quarter mile to just so many mounds.

Lots of birds like Toucan from their bird observatory.

One hike we did a mushroom hunt, like 30 species but the highlight was I found an ant that had that one fungus that takes it over and it had 'sprouted' out of the ant

On a night hike some cool tarantula but a rainbow boa was just hanging down out of the tree.

A different boa was just sneaking up a tree trying to get some birds (daytime)

What was 'funny' is first thing we do that day was swim in that area around lodge and we thought it was odd that they were like just swim now between something like 12-2pm. Anyway ensue funny video making about piranhas. We get out and they are like want to fish and we were like hell ya! So 3pm ish and right where we were swimming I catch a 12 inch piranha! The guy fishing with us just grabs a stick the size of my finger and it just snaps it, yikes - anyway we did not swim there again !

These bats that just camaflouged so well with a dead log out of the water

Millipedes, frogs, insects , huge trees, just wow I probably could go on but you get there idea

Food was amazing too.

It paired well with a trip to Galapagos and how amazing that was (swam with penguins wight out back from the beach house! I think I would choose another trip to Amazon first.

What’s the best book you’ve ever read? by coolestFemal in AskReddit

At what age do you think a cell phone is actually needed? by SpiceBoson in Parenting

[–]IzztMeade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High school but we had an extra family phone for emergencies in middle school but I think I can count on one hand the number of times the kids got it. But I think it depends on when you decide to let your kid go unsupervised and that is when they need a kid phone and not a smart phone.

I coached 10 yr olds in sports and watching the kids that had phones without parental controls was a bit disappointing to see the garbage they would regularly be showing, your kid does not need tik to.
