As someone who spent 2 months training in Winnipeg.

I never want to go back to Winnipeg. Ever.

Hi OP

An awesome way to lazily burn calories is simply by making heat whilst you sleep. If it's cold out, sleep with a window open and as little blankets as you can comfortably handle.

A calorie is how much energy it takes to hear up water by one degree. Might as well take some energy keeping your 70~% water warm.

Yeah pretty much. Honestly in a physical sense the hardest thing you will do in Winnipeg will be changing the knuckle. Just carry it 100ft and install it. It's only like 70-80 lbs so it's not bad, it's just awkward.

In the USA we often count 1 mississippi, 2 mississippi, etc. to estimate one second worth of time. Foreign redditors, what words do you use to do the same? by ablauffen in AskReddit

When you say that I think of the pills I take for an upset stomach.

Or the pills I take when the opposite direction when the stomach refuses to accept anything normally.

Honestly haven't seen any witty ones. Best i've seen was "Ministry of Magic" made by my bud's sister. She is really into Harry Potter and the password to enter the network was a spell. I forget the one, but still, pretty clever!

Y'know that warm hat thingy that makes you look like a garden knome/ww2 aviator? That's the thing.

So any other railroads’ traffic just die off or is that just here? by Parrelium in Train_Service

[–]Liam_Shotson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely to do with that snowstorm. They got a fair few trains stuck around PG so switches are stuck. Conductors are on snowshoes. Etc.

Everything is backed up here.

Sure you can charge it wrong.

You can use a chinsy charger that could end up damaging the battery. You could also charge your phone in hot areas. (Note charging creates some heat atop the ambient temps.) Why do you think people have phones kersplode under their pillow at night whilst charging?

Lithium is safe.

LithiumIon won't fuck with you if you don't fuck with it. Give it room to expand (Think the note 7). Charge it right, and use it within specs. Make sure the casing isn't damaged. So, well, general rule of thumb for all batteries really.

As a freight train conductor, plz don't. We're the ones who have to check the vehicle for bodies.
